Hello! Call me Bird. I am currently in two open serious relationships, so open-polyamory is how we like to label it. I am a female and both my partners are male, although my sexuality is fluid. Partner 1 will be nicknamed Sir, and Partner 2 is Lion. Both relationships have strong BDSM influences (with Sir, it is the predominant style.. hence 'Sir.'). Both are LDR, and that adds some new difficulties.
Sir and I have a don't ask don't tell policy, and Lion and I have an open communication dynamic, where we let each other know when/who we are interestted in sleeping with outside of the relationship. Lion and Sir know about each other, but have never met.
Lion and I are fairly new, several months in. And Sir and I have known each other for just over 7 years.
In my immediate life I don't know anyone else who is Poly or BDSM. Except my sister! she is wonderful and full of great advice, but she lives far away and we are on opposite schedules.

So im here to form a positive support network.

I don't live a life that im a afraid to share, so no questions are off limits.
Thank for reading :)

Greetings Bird,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

I remember you from your other thread, was it Sir or Lion who was going through a breakup? How did you first get acquainted with Sir and Lion, if you don't mind my asking? Anyway, I think you'll find that the various members are fairly supportive here. I'm glad you could join us!

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter" :)

So right now Lion is the partner going through the breakup. I have a ticket to go out to see him next week, and we are both looking forward to shrinking the distance between us.

So I met Sir a little over 7 years ago at the beach, of all places. And we hit it off right away. And we have been on and off for a lot of it, as he moved between various countries quite often. But now we are only a 6 hour drive from each other and take our relationship quite seriously. We have a fairly strict BDsM relationship and I love it.

Lion and I have been together for several months. We met through my sister when I was presenting some research at a conference while staying with my sister.

They are both very wonderful and different in their own ways.
 
Thanks for that additional info. Sir and Lion sound like great guys. I was going to ask, will you always be long-distance with both of them? or will you all move to be closer to one another?
 
I’m moving to Thailand in July for a year, so that will most definitely still be long distances with a couple visits thrown in. But the graduate school I’m really hoping for is a lot closer to Lion. Sir and I are used to long distance and would just require some extra flight expenses when I get to graduate school.
 
Okay, that makes sense.
