Sometimes when relationships open up to polyamory, they move quickly because this new opening up to love and life sounds so exciting. However… moving slow may help you and your Lover(s) to have those deeper conversations about desires, expectations, needs, boundaries and agreements. Moving slow can also help as y’all experiment with the types of polyamory exploration you want to have. And if difficult feelings arise when you expose yourself to new experiences — you can pause, take a breath, soothe your Self and one another — and learn what’s for you and your Lover(s)… and what isn’t. ❤
Opening up, or maintaining a poly relationship takes time and flexibility as you and your Lover(s) needs may change over time. Try Prioritizing weekly check-ins to share difficult feelings, positive feedback, new desires, ask questions and spend quality with together with Lover(s).
Take care of your Self and your Lover(s) and keep communicating with compassion.
