Greetings!
I go by MC, online and in most spheres of my life (I think only my mum calls me by my complete name), and I live in Montréal, Canada. My first language is French, but I believe my English is pretty decent.
I've been married, a lifetime ago. My ex and I had an open relationship (sex-wise only - back then I didn't even know polyamory was a thing), but we were young and inexperienced, and it ended badly. Burnt, I refused to consider anything else than monogamy for almost 10 years after that - even though I heard about polyamory during that time, which ended up with me being a serial-monogamist, at best.
My current nesting partner and I have been together for about 3.5 years now, and from the very beginning, we talked about the possibility of being poly. We started slowly, however, and it's only (very) recently that I finally put myself "on the market". Then a month ago, I started seeing this new person, and things are going great! The 2 of them have met, and if they are not friends, at least they get along well enough. My nesting partner also has other encounters but they're more into occasionnal hookups than having extra actual relationships, with the possible exception of a long time friend with benefits.
I found that navigating 2 relationships is more complicated than I thought, hence my coming here, to benefit from other people's experiences and to share my humble voice when I can help.
Looking forward to sharing ideas!
