Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

If they’re not able to meet you somewhere that works, you gotta protect yourself.
Do not expect nonmonagamy to work. It will add a tremendous amount of stress to both your lives and your relationship. This is almost never a positive outcome.
This should be clarified. Non-monogamy can work very well for people who are non-monogamous in some capacity and intentional about their relationship structures from the get go. It's a terrible idea for monogamous people who don't feel their needs are being met to try to open up to correct that.
As a non monogamous person myself this is a fair point. It takes and entirely diffrent skill set to do this successfully and there is no guarantee life would have prepared you both adequately at this moment.
Weird take, non monogamy is great
