Hemimonoamorous
[PT: Hemimonoamorous]
A term describing one who identifies themselves as monoamorous/monogamous despite experiencing polyamorous/polygamous inclinations — their inclination towards monoamory/monogamy outweighs their inclination towards polyamory/polygamy, or they only want to be in a monoamorous/monogamous relationship, so they don’t consider their other attraction as part of their identity.
This term isn't meant to promote internalized polyphobia; it is only meant to give a name to an experience some people have.
