Hello. I am new to the forum..I live in central Texas and I look forward to chatting with like-minded people.

I'm also relatively new to the lifestyle. I'm in my late 40s and about 20 years ago, I had a couple of polyamorous relationships. During the past few months, it has been an aspect of my life that I now wish to pursue more.

Thank you for the welcome. I'll admit, I'm a bit nervous. Not about my sexuality, but about the logistics of meeting people safely and discreetly. The last thing I want is for my private life to threaten my public life.

A little about me: I'm a woman in my late 40s. I have been in long-term relationships with men and women, individually. I am semi "out" as a bisexual woman. Those around me know, but I don't announce it with a megaphone. Haha!

I enjoy just about anything outdoors. We all have our happy place, and that is definitely mine.

The two polyamorous relationships I had were 20 years ago. The first was with a husband/wife couple. It was really only a sexual thing and it ended after a few weeks. I had nothing in common with them so a friendship wasn't in the mix.

The next relationship was with a lesbian couple. We were all friends. It lasted for a few months but it caused issues in their relationship so it ended. Plus, I was very busy establishing my career and my priorities were elsewhere.

Fast forward 20 years, during which I have dated men and women. One relationship lasted for a decade.

The past couple of years have been spent in quiet introspection. While I have dated casually, I have really enjoyed delving into my own interests and desires. It's amazing what you find when you look. 😉
