    Discussion: Who is expected to change in a mono+poly relationship

    does it have a name?

    i agree with everyone else, if it doesn't feel right you need to have enough respect for yourself to say no, if he loves you and she respects and care about you like they should then this should not be something you are made to do, Jools

    A Polyamory Paradox

    For me it isn't about what is enough or who meets all my needs, you could ask the same question about a couple who choose to have more than one child, you could say how many mothers out there would have a second child if the first met all there needs, and does that make any sense? When you...

    Coming out

    We are out with everyone we know, and I mean everyone, from my gran to the people I work with. It has not been easy, but at same time, it does have its rewards. I feel far more free knowing that everyone knows and I'm not trying to keep it a secret like it's something I should be ashamed of. I...

    Multi-partner cohabitation

    I'd love my own room, but at the moment we can't afford a bigger place. We have a 2 and half bedroom flat. The half bedroom is so small you can't fit a bed in it, so we use it as a study. Chris and Rick both have their rooms, and so when I'm not with them they get time alone. It's not exactly...
