I’ve been on the fence about if I’d be okay with polyamory or not. How did y’all go about dissecting those feelings and working them out? This is newer to me in my journey.

I’m Ambiamorous soley out of I do not give a shit if I’m in a poly or mono relationship, I have the capacity to love multiple people equally and I also have the capacity to love one person. It’s really all about preferences. Try to imagine what your life would be like in a poly and then think about if that’s comfortable or not

There’s a poly youtuber who’s also a therapist who’s got some good videos on the topic - her name is Mickey Atkins

my partner and tried polyamory for a bit before deciding it wasn’t for us, mostly beacause of the emotional labor and about of talking involved. the things we talked about were what feelings came up or (we guessed would come up) in certain situations and what boundaries we needed/ wanted. a good piece of advice a poly friend gave me is that it’s unhealthy / a red flag to be looking to fill a gap in a mono relationship by opening things up
