Threads about determining if polyamory is for you, and how to discuss it
The questions raised and discussed in the threads below address how to figure out if polyamory is a good fit for you, the results of transitioning from mono to poly relationships, and how to bring up the topic with your partner. Perhaps reading some of them will be helpful for sorting it all out.
 How do you know you're poly? The Many Types of Polyamory Positive things as a mono I have gotten from poly Haven't broached the poly subject yet... Talking about Polyamory to partners So - how do you *know* you're poly/mono? Mono/Poly confusion in mono marriage, realizing I'm poly Have you always known if you are mono or poly? How you changed when you opened to poly? How do I open up my discussion/relationship?

It makes me all fuzzy and giddy inside my brain when i check the who's online list and see new members studying the popular threads before they ask the same question for the fifty-thousandth-and-fifty-third time.
You know who you are! You rock!
