Today I came out as polyamorous on Facebook and so I thought it was as good a time as any to start a blog detailing my adventures here.
I have been blessed that so far the comments on Facebook have all been positive (an ex of mine has even messaged me to let me know he too is polyamorous) but I am noticing an absence in a response from my family. Hoping it is just that they have not been online this afternoon/evening but I am definitely expecting a backlash from at least one of my sisters.
Currently I have been leading a single poly lifestyle for the last year or so. There's been two people that have been friends with benefits but until recently I've not had anything head towards a relationship.
Around two months ago one of my friends with benefits (who I was very fond of, to which he was aware) fell into some difficult times. His normal response when things like this happen is to push everyone away and once he's sorted things out he'll come back. Due to my being awesome (or so I tell myself) I've been placed in some circle of trust and responsibility of some of his belongings and all of his money has fallen on me to manage. I shall refer to him as Techie.
In the mean time I have started a FWB arrangement with Teigr. I am not sure where that will lead as we don't get to see each other a lot due to conflicting work schedules.
Lastly I am preparing to buy a home with a friend, Muse. Muse and I have been friends for quite some time and there's been interest from both of us in the other but circumstances prevented things occurring at the time. While we've acknowledged we may date in the future the plan is to buy this house as friends. So there will most likely be a few posts about all the legalities and learning to live with people from me.
