New here from the Carolinas

[Wocky]

Hello! I’m so new here.

My wife had some one she knows ask her out, and her reply was, “I’m not cheating!!!” When she told me this, I said, “It doesn’t have to be cheating, right?”

We’ve talked to some polys we know, read a book, talked together, and a lot more. The friend that asked her out had to stop for self-care, but we have done a lot to prepare ourselves. I know there is more of that, though. Recently my wife pointed out that I’ve been preparing myself for being comfortable with her dating someone, but never really realizing that this was open to me too.

This is a whole new place for me to explore, and I’ve still got quite a ways to go. Glad there are other people here too.

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

It sounds like you and your wife have done a good job so far of preparing for polyamory, and kudos goes to you for how gracious you've been about the person who asked your wife out. I encourage you to continue to prepare, explore our various posts and boards, and let us know if you have any questions. It's great to have you with us!

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter"
