Hello all,
I’m James, 49, and have been married for a bit over 10 years. We have 2 kids living with us. Our 19yo knows our lifestyle. Our younger one does not. Only because he is a big talker, lol.
Due to COVID, we ended up in a state where we didn’t want to “bug” the other when I was playing games and she was listening to her podcasts or books. We lost the most important part of a good relationship, communication. It finally boiled over when she came to me talking about divorce. After much talking, we got down to the real problem. She wasn’t sure she was set out to love only 1 person. That led me to do some research and bring up the idea of her either being poly or ENM.
While she has been on her journey, I have been living the mono life trying to figure my own situation. Going back over my own past, I have looked into the poly life a few times, but never ventured in. Now, I am at the point that I feel it is my time to stop sitting on the sidelines.
I am a gamer, video and tabletop. Love RPGs when I can find a good one. Hikes and sitting by a body of water are always good. I love just about all music and believe that Blazing Saddles is a classic. Robotech and Vampire Hunter D are my jam when I need a little anime.
More later and catch you all on the other side.
