I'm not a goober!

[Goober7]

Hey!

Hello. Hi. I'm a nonbinary person from Europe soon in my 30's. My values have always been in favor of polyamory, and I suppose growing up queer set me up for questioning all sorts of relationship norms.
I only recently got my hands into the actual dirt, and am in a polyamorous relationship with a partner of 6 moths and in a new beginning casual relationship with another person. It is proving out to be much more challenging than I initially imagined, and I'm dearly looking for community wisdom and learning. I hope to find it here!

As a jolly ESL (or "English as Second Language"), I picked the name Goober –– but recently I have found I might not be a goober after all!

Nice to meet everyone.

Greetings Goober7,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

You're definitely not a goober. You have a complex and difficult situation to deal with. Polyamory can be a worthwhile endeavor, but that doesn't mean it's easy. Most of us old-timers have had a rough time, and made mistakes, before arriving where we're at today.

Hopefully we have helped so far, and will continue to help.
Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter"
