My husband told me he wants to be polyamorous at the beginning of the month. It's been really rough because I don't want to be polyamorous myself. Although intellectually I am fine with polyamory, emotionally I didn't understand why I wasn't enough for him and why he couldn't be happy with just me. He kept telling me I was enough and he was happy, so I couldn't see why he needed more. Lightbulb moment. I can be ok not being everything.
This is one of the most helpful videos I've ever seen. Earlier today while listening to an OPL podcast from two years ago about a woman in a poly/poly relationship with her husband, I pleasantly realized that everything she said represented my outlook, making me realize that I am polyamorous. This video has solidified my newfound understanding of myself even more; I discovered this channel today. Thank you very much for doing all the work with these videos that you do! It's crazy that not many people have discovered this channel and think they've questioned everything or almost everything difficult in life without critically considering whether monogamy is for them, why it is for them, why they think any alternative is bad, or how polyamory could offer them or their partner the chance to become a more loving, ideal, fully realized relationship partner. I feel more confident in explaining myself and what I want to people now as a result of what I learned in just this video.
Stuart Reed Me too. How’s it going after some time has passed? I’ve been with my husband 21 years. He just found my metamour about a month ago and I’m struggling.
Are you referring to a relationship with a mono and a polyamorous partners in a cohabitation situation? Or do they live apart to where dating around is more feasible and appropriate?

"Sometimes I wanna wear ugly pajamas and fart!" 😂❤️🙏
"Thank you for your honesty, I'm going to take a 20min walk." Yes!!!
Thank you for this, I haven't seen anyone else even discuss this situation. I'm the mono side of a 12 year relationship, similar to your guest.

That is what I want to find out about. I am the mono and our relationship is only 6 months in
