Hey everyone, you can call me LB or Lizzie. I got the name from Elizabeth Barrett Browning. I am 25, from Texas (I feel like there’s supposed to be a custom of hat tipping after saying this but I don’t even own a cowboy hat).
I am new to polyamory. And it has been an interesting struggle.
me and my long term live in boyfriend (we’re going to just call him Babe) opened our relationship a couple of months ago. We’ve been together for almost a decade (high school sweethearts) and I found out a year ago that I am actually, in fact, bisexual.
Babe opened the conversation about polyamory when we discussed my sexuality because he did not want me to feel like I was missing out, but also because he’s felt like he was polyamorous for a few years. I was super hesitant at first. But I ended up having a crush on someone who is also in a newly developed polyamorous relationship.
This is where my second partner comes in, we’ll call her Dos. She was my friend first for a year and started telling me about polyamory as well. I had lots of questions since Babe had brought it up. She provided a safe space for me to ask questions, and then we kind of fell into each other’s laps.
it was the most “fate” thing that I had experienced thus far. It was just the right time with all of the right people in the polycule.
Polyamory has given me the safe space to explore my sexuality, learn about and practice compersion, and be intentional and present with my time. It has helped me with confidence, my boundary setting and respecting, and patience. This has been a really emotional experience, especially because me and Dos are both new to this. But it has been very rewarding. Still need to keep doing all the research and being open to changes and shifts in boundaries. But it’s been a really rewarding experience.
