There's this article about poly living styles that looks at the challenges of living together as a poly family. The author states that it is a common dream, but isn't always realistic or automatically the best option. She brings up an alternative which can often be simpler to sustain, which she calls "shared custody model".
Now, I love this idea, because it embodies the thought that you don't have to choose either x or y, but can have your cake and eat it, too, so to speak. I also like the practical approach to creating something that suits the individuals and relationships involved.
There is a thread on the forum about multi-partner co-habitation, about ideal relationships, and about solo poly living. In this thread I'd like thoughts and/or experiences of "shared custody model", alternatives in between of living together and living separately. Is that something you do, or something you wish to do in the future? What does that look like to you?
