Neither of ”...and currently looking for more relationship partners” or ”...and not currently looking for more relationship partners” seem to capture what I feel is a common poly sentiment, ”...and I’ll figure out what I want with new people as I get to know them”.
Neither of “Atheist but spiritual” and “Atheist but not spiritual” seem to capture “Atheist who doesn’t know what ‘spiritual’ means in this context and therefore doesn’t want to come down either for or against it, because there are both interpretations where it seems nice and interpretations where it seems silly”.
P(Aliens), P(Many Words), etc. -- are these supposed to be conditioned on the fact that we’re not in a simulation, etc.? Otherwise, for example, P(Aliens) goes down in proportion to P(Simulation).

It seems to me that unless a new person shows up and you say “sorry, not looking for more right now” you’re in the first category. But separating out “looking and receptive,” “not looking but receptive,” and “neither looking nor receptive” seems potentially useful.

That’s not a terribly rare sentiment among non-poly single people either.
P(Aliens) is P(Aliens) and not P(Aliens|Simulation=False)
