For example, at a bar if you’re chit chatting with someone and it’s clearly in a platonic, non-romantic fashion - do you ever mention being open if it comes up organically in the conversation or just avoid it altogether since people can be judgy (or may think you’re trying to give them a hint when you’re not)?

29F, my husband and I opened up several months ago and we’re taking things very slowly. I’ve recently started going to bars and live music solo, not with the intention of getting laid, but really just trying to get more comfortable being independent and socializing with people platonically for the time being. I dress very modestly and don’t get sloppy drunk.

People seem to be fascinated by the fact that I am a married woman and going out to bars on my own.. they usually have a lot of questions and there’s a lot of opportunities for the relationship dynamic to come into the conversation.

This is new territory for me and I’m not trying to become known as the floozy around town. For those of you more experienced, what is your policy on discussing your non-monogamous status as it comes up in casual conversation?
