Not My Circus, The Difficult Decision to Enter into a Poly/Mono Relationship
Welcome, one of two things has
happened to bring you to this guide! You have either been polybombed at some
point in an existing relationship or you have been told by someone, that you
potentially want to begin a relationship with, that they are polyamorous.
What is polyamorous? What does it mean? All polyamorous
means is that someone is 'able to love more than one' person concurrently. It
is done from an ethical perspective, everyone is aware and everyone gives their
consent. It is consensual non-monogamy.
This book is about mono/poly relationships. First and
foremost they are a designer relationships or a construct where the polyamorous
person can practice their preferred relationship archetype with everyone's full
knowledge and still maintain a healthy relationship with their monoamorous
partner.
It is not ethical once consent has been given to
withdraw it. Others, however, can change their mind over this practice if it is
agreed upon.
First Things First
You have been bombed, shell shock is setting in! You
can't think, you can't breathe you’re sick to your stomach, your shutting down.
It is okay to say 'No More Not Now'! No decisions will be made at this point
regardless of what the other person wants. Think of the oxygen mask on planes
metaphor. Put your own oxygen mask on first; before assisting others, even your
children if you’re not able to react you can't help others around you
