    Need advice/direction for a new mono/poly dynamic

    Well, after talking with him and the counselor in an individual setting I'm finally going to listen to literally everyone else but my brain. I told him this arrangement was hurting me and I needed some space from it all. We are still amicable, but I realize I need to focus on myself more before...

    Need advice/direction for a new mono/poly dynamic

    Fair, and that's what it may be. I'm still curious enough to try, though. I've been doing a lot of work on myself, and most days I'm more okay than not. I just had a really bad day and was spiraling a bit when I posted the first time.

    Need advice/direction for a new mono/poly dynamic

    I don't know if he truly wants poly forever. He's never tried before. Actually, out of the three of us, I probably have the most experience, but like you, that was my younger days. I might be doing exactly what you had to go through right now. I'm not (completely) delusional about this...

    New mono/poly dynamic

    I'm new here and just beginning to explore polyamory in a more intentional way. I'm a woman in my 40s, recently rekindled a relationship with someone I love deeply and have been through a lot with over the last two years. We're now trying to navigate a nontraditional dynamic together. He has...
