hey there polyamory community 
never been great at intros but here goes. im 34 and while i might look happy on the outside, its not always the full picture. i was in a mono relationship for 3 years—she was like the light of my life during the honeymoon phase, until everything just fell apart. things went from 100 to -200 so fast, and honestly, i never got answers. one day she just left—no explanation, no way to reach her, nothing
ive been trying to move on because at the end of the day, memories are just memories, right? thats what i keep telling myself anyway. if im being real, this whole thing shattered me, like made me question love and everything i thought it was. maybe this is just part of growing up, realizing life isnt what we always thought itd be
these days, ive been noticing the world more, or at least trying to. its like rediscovering everything for the first time. thats why i got so into drawing. i think it helps me slow down, like really focus on one thing—a line, a curve, whatever. it stops my mind from rushing around, and i can just see the small stuff, the beautiful stuff i probably wouldve missed before.
ive been reflecting on polyamory too. at first, i thought it was just about having multiple partners, but i think subconsciously i was looking at it more like family—like this bigger sense of connection and support. and what makes poly really special is the freedom and connection that comes from letting go of these strict norms society has and just embracing love however it shows up
i dont have much to say about poly yet since im still figuring it all out, but im looking forward to reading everyone else's experiences. hope you all have a great day
