I just want to crowd source some different ideas about what commitment looks like from different perspectives, especially for solo poly and RA people.
One thing I commit to with my partners is that I will be honest about my feelings about the relationship, and let them know if I'm unhappy about something, so that there is a chance to make changes or clear up misunderstandings before it's too late.
I also typically commit to some level of availability. Like I'm going to answer their messages within a reasonable time frame, I'll be available for a date once a week, twice a month, whatever it is, and I'm available for overnights, shared vacations and so forth.
What does the idea of commitment look like for you?
Commitment to my best friend, I'll raise her kids if something happens to her and her husband. We can retire together if we need too. We are life time committed to care for each other.
Commitment to my niece. My home is her home.
Commitment to my mom. I')ll care for you through old age.
Commitment to romantic partners outside my primary, right now they are low.
But I dont view commitment as tied to sex or romance.
