Ha! We haven’t had any of those norms here, even before being poly.
Our friend has lived with us for a decade, before being poly, and she handles food. My wife pays bills and handles dishes. I clean the house and do trash.
It’s odd with other things too, such as how the two of them have...
Actually y’all got me thinking here. I’ve never had any kind of attraction to a guy, but other than my wife I’ve never looked at a woman and felt any kind of attraction. I guess theoretically I could be bi, but just very demi too. Hmm . . .
Games? Board games like Wingspan, Terraforming Mars, Ticket to Ride, and Dinosaur Island? Or like Checkers, Life, Monopoly, and Axis and Allies?

I understand that ENM doesn't exactly have set rules, so different people do and see things differently. We're still learning about poly (and Polyamory.com) so I get it if y'all see bad ideas or errors here.
Happy Holidays, everyone!
We had [doing math] 11 people at our house Christmas morning, and surprisingly it went well. New Year's Eve we had 15 people that are close enough to us to be counted as Family. I hope everyone starts with a good year.

My wife and I had been married about a decade and had two kids when we moved 500 miles away from our home. A great friend of ours, "C," was looking at moving to the same area. We decided it...
