This time next week I'll be 24 hours away from snogging Greg.

Troilism: The Art of Watching and Celebrating Connection

Troilism is a fascinating relationship dynamic that where one enjoys a sense of pride watching their partner connect with others.

Evolving Your Man

I put together a bed side table for the other side of my bed, because Greg's visiting in a few weeks.

I got to put together some things in the drawer for him today:
Lip balm
Hair ties
Deodorant
Tissues
Paracetamol
Lube
USB-C cables
UK/Australia socket
Paper and pens
Wipes
Fan
Little bowl to put his ring in while he's sleeping

It feels less lonely to have little bits around the house for when he's here.

Usually #visibility campaigns and #polyamory are somehow represented somewhere on the fediverse but I'm not finding this one:

"A global celebration of non-monogamous communities, identities, and values!

Your thoughts?

Now THIS is the kind of moral outrage around sexuality I can actually get behind! :D

#Polyamory #NonMonogamy

Greg and I usually never argue, and have maybe 5 or 6 arguments in the 8 years we've been dating (15 years we've known each other).

Over the past week we've had 3 arguments. We're fine, it's just one thing we're working through.

But this post isn't about that. This post is about the realisation that every time we argue I get a headache and constipated for like 2 days after.

My body literally does NOT cope when we argue. It's perfectly happy to fight with any other motherfucker that annoys me, though.

In-which I do go on about the surprise benefits of "monogamy cosplay" and sustained one-on-one time with a given partner.

Monogamy Cosplay

For the first time in nearly 20 years, I can see the appeal of monogamy. Keep breathing. Your favourite parasocial polycule isn’t going anywhere. But I have got to talk about this. I’m …

More Than Monogamy: The Movie Every Curious Couple Needs to Watch Right Now

When a movie about a topic that you are genuinely excited about comes around, you don’t sit on it. You watch it, you share it, and you contact the team behind the movie for an interview.
