Poly has come up on a few threads but I thought it might be nice for us polyfolk (or the poly curious) to have a thread to discuss the ins and outs.
I'm in the middle of some relationship changes and have been thinking a lot about it recently.
I'm also reading 'Off the relationship escalator: uncommon love and life' by Amy Gahran which is really interesting and has made me realise how 'poly' is a small word that covers so many different relationship options.
I guess I'm wondering how you define poly for you, how many of you are 'out' to family, friends or even at work (no, yes, no for me there), how everyone structures or identifies their relationships (I identify as solo poly mostly) and handles the scheduling (tricky)!
(For those who don't know what poly is, this set of FAQs sets it out nicely:
