I need a little help, some advice, and maybe some personal stories?

So for the past year I [23f] started to identify as polyam. My (toxic) ex also told me she thought she was poly and pushed a very toxic dynamic where I felt objectified. She broke a lot of boundaries and I finally kicked her out in February.

My new partner [24f] is absolutely wonderful! I’ve never been in a relationship with so much communication and openness. She’s very open about being poly and now I feel safe enough to also date more than one partner.

I really want to tell my parents. I’m a bit nervous. I came out to them as a lesbian a few years ago and although they’re still learning, always supportive of me and try their best to learn. I’m really close to them, but I don’t think they really know anything about being polyamorous and what it means.

How did you come out to your family and friends? I’m just a nervous and I would like to know what to expect
