So, at the beginning of the year, my meta (I'll call them Sam) was getting kicked out of their house, and temporarily moved in with us, a triad. Long story short, me and my partners were not as affectionate when Sam was living with us, they were awful, and we had to kick them out, and we are traumatized by the situation.

Now that we are all feeling safe and comfortable in our home again, I am feeling desperate for intimacy again (we are all demi/ace spectrum, so not sex perse) and I am not mad about it. It feels a bit like NRE for my partners of 3 and 2.5 years, and they seem to be in the same boat. I think this has irrevocably changed our relationship, and it is essentially a new relationship we are navigating. It just feels good that both of my partners are wanting intimacy like I am. I am comforted because it doesn't feel like our triad was destabilized, but we saw where there are weaknesses.

I am excited to heal and move on with my loved ones. I am looking forward to where we go now
