In a recent interview on The Angie Martinez Show on Power 105.1, Ne-Yo opened up about his unconventional relationship dynamic, clarifying that while he maintains multiple romantic partners, his girlfriends have willingly chosen not to date other men.
Oh, really?
The 45-year-old singer, who has been vocal about his polyamorous lifestyle, shared that he has never felt more fulfilled in his personal life. “I was trying to be what society’s norms tell you to be… one man, one woman. It has never worked for me… it’s just a happier life,” he explained.
Aha.
Ne-Yo emphasized that his four partners can leave the relationship at any time, stating, “I’m not forcing anybody to be here. If for whatever reason you decide this ain’t for you no more, the door is never locked. You have permission to go on about your business. I don’t want anyone to think I’m manipulating these women into doing something they don’t want to do. Everyone that is here is here by choice. They made the decision.”
There you have it.
Moreover, while addressing frequent questions about whether his girlfriends can date outside the relationship, he responded firmly, “No, they are not. And I’m telling you why. When I got with these women, I did not ask for their exclusivity. I did not demand their exclusivity. They offered it. They came to me and said, ‘I wanna be exclusive to you and just you.'”
