Hey y'all, its been a hot minute! How the hell have y'all been? I've been...whew...uh...it's been CRAZY over here in our neck of the woods, lemme tell ya. Has it been a roller coaster, yeah. HELL YEAH! Has it been worth it? ABSOLUTELY

Has anyone seen the price of groceries lately? I'm dying over here!! 🤣

Me and hubs are in a FANTASTIC place in our relationship, and we're in fantastic places with our other FWB relationships too.

My meta, the one I have spoken about in my previous posts with hubs, has now become my FWB too. We just clicked as friends, and we jive in our sexuality and demi-ness too. It worked seamlessly. We keep our relationships seperate (ESPECIALLY WHEN WE HAVE CONFLICTS), but we're all friends. It's really nice. I have an FWB little open triad going on that's healthy.

I have an fwb outside of my little open triad that's solid. I have a date with him soon. I'm pretty excited, he's not what I would typically go for in a man, but I'm so glad I did. I opened myself up to a really good relationship and realized that what I thought I was into wasn't ALL that I was into. (Same FWB from the six month update if you read my posts 🥰)

Hubs has an fwb outside of our triad, its a comet relationship, and he's happy with it but is searching for someone whose a little closer more often than they are to have more than just our triad, which we encourage and help him with the best we can. (We can't swipe for him but we can cheer him on and give him dating app tips! 😘🥰)

I never, EVER expected to be in a triad y'all. I always had the thought that triads were toxic, because that's all that I had seen. Triangulation, manipulation, one relationship being prioritized over the others, etc etc. I've never seen a healthy triad, until now. It's...actually pretty nice. (We also have agreed no group sex for a HOT minute. We kinda just wanna enjoy our seperate relationships for now. Maybe later, and at this point, once in a blue moon.)

Hubs and I both had overnights. His so far have been WILDLY more successful than mine (Yay him! 🥰) but I'm expecting that to level out soon. My run with non monogamy hasn't been the greatest, but I've learned a hell of a lot, and I've found some pretty solid partners. I'm actually quite happy right now for the most part.

Life shit has been a bitch dude, but its been relatively easy to manage because our little network is pretty solid. I don't know what I'd do without my little polycule over these last few months.

So, if you're starting non monogamy being previously monogamous with your partner, let this be proof it can work, and it can be fun. Is it hard sometimes? Fucking A it is!!! Severe PTSD, ADHD, Anxiety and the good 'ol depresso expresso have made non monogamy a bitch for us sometimes!!! But, with a lot of love, grace, and honest communication, with a few bear hugs sprinkled in, you can do it too. I promise. 😘
