I wonder how many fail because of this ?
I think most relationships fail regardless of if they are poly or monogamous (dating and marriages). One thing about poly relationships is that they are very fluid and constantly changing, even within long term committed people. So people move in and out of them and fulfill certain needs at that time. People have moved through our relationship over the past few years and we still cherish each and every one of them.

I also truly believe though, that a relationship isn't defined by it's issues, but rather by how the people in the relationship deal with them.
