    Facilitator or valued triad member?

    When I say all or nothing.. I don't mean.. choose me or her, I mean.. if we are to be polyamorous, then it would be congruent with that concept that I be able to source the additional things I need from outside our 'relationship' as long as done in a respectful and fully discussed way.
