Evening everyone:
I’m feeling my way forward through a few things. I started dating last fall after a long break. It’s been quite enjoyable. The world of kink and FetLife was mentioned to me by one date, and then a second fully introduced me to it and the life. I would say that I’m now moving into a relationship of some nature wirh this second man, and I truly like him. He feels real to me. We haven’t yet had a full conversation about poly/mono/open; we’re starting to get there in our comments, adding in to what we already know about each other. He has had a history of more poly/ open than I; I have been monogamous the majority of my life.
I find that I still feel fairly monogamous, but the kink lifestyle does also open these boundaries. I recently stopped actively looking for other dates and connections, feeling that I want to explore this connection with him, which has so much within it that is new for me. I feel I need to concentrate on that, especially as I already have so little free time in my life as a single parent.
I don’t have an active question, just my intro.
I’m sure you will all tell me to take my time and communicate. I hope to, and hope to learn here as well. I’m happy to hear any thoughts.
Thank you all.
