Ne-Yo Gets Candid About Decision To Be Polyamorous
On November 14, ‘The Lemon Drop Show’ released a new episode featuring an exclusive sitdown with Ne-Yo via YouTube. About 25 minutes into the episode, Ne-Yo explained that his decision to be polyamorous was prompted by a realization that he was not living his “truth” for a “very, very long time.”
“…And I realized that everything is not for everybody,” he said. “…Society tells you that you’re supposed to be with one person. You get married, and y’all supposed to be together forever… I am not s******g on marriage. I’m not s******g on anyone who has figured out how to make that thing work for them. Again, everything’s not for everybody. Monogamy is for you. It’s not for me.”
Ne-Yo explained that his realization is like a “weight lifted off” his shoulders.
“I realized I spent so much time lying and trying to be somebody I wasn’t for the sake of somebody else,” he continued. “[It was] complete and utter time wasted when I could’ve just been exactly who I am, said exactly what I want, exactly how I’m rocking, exactly how I’m not, and then waited for those people to gravitate to me because that’s my reality now… I don’t have to lie anymore, and I’ll be damned if I ever go back to that person that needed to lie for the appeasement of somebody else. I’m not that no more.”
Before concluding, Ne-Yo shared that living in his truth has allowed all of the relationships in his life to become better. This also includes his relationship with his ex-wife Crystal Renay.
“We’re actually at the place where we can call each other ‘friend’ again because now it’s, ‘This is who I am. Love it or leave it alone.’” he said.
