The point of being poly is, for me, freedom to be able to follow my heart and, to an extent, explore my kinks in a safe space. It is not about deliberately finding sexual partners or deliberately looking for someone else, but about being able to embrace possibilities and be myself.
She lists these ground rules...
Be honest to yourselfBe honest to everyone involvedCommunicate, Communicate, CommunicateMy husband and I will continue to live together and share our love, lives, and financesGoing out with others will be planned and scheduledI don't want to know the details of a sexual experience, but I would want to know if one occurred, I would give the same respectPractice safer sexIf a relationship ends it is not to be because it has been “vetoed.” If a relationship ends it should be because the relationship has run its natural courseTry to meet the “partner/s” of my partner/sKeep everyone informed, discuss, and communicate changes in relationship situations and feelingsBe aware of and cautious of New Relationship Energy, do not make hasty judgments based on it
Not bad at all.
These kinds of "mixed" marriages can work if the spouses agree that it is OK for their spouse do be different than them, to have different personal boundaries, different needs, different wants, different interests, etc. Readers, have you been in a "mixed" relationship?

To prevent spam, comments will have to be approved, so your comment may not appear for several hours. Feedback is welcome, including disagreement. I only delete/reject/mark as spam: spam, vulgar or hateful attacks, repeated spouting of bigotry from the same person that does not add to the discussion, and the like. I will not reject comments based on disagreement, but if you don't think consenting adults should be free to love each other, then I do not consent to have you repeatedly spout hate on my blog without adding anything to the discourse.
If you want to write to me privately, then either contact me on Facebook, email me at fullmarriageequality at protonmail dot com, or tell me in your comment that you do NOT want it published. Otherwise, anything you write here is fair game to be used in a subsequent entry. If you want to be anonymous, that is fine.
IT IS OK TO TALK ABOUT SEX IN YOUR COMMENTS, BUT PLEASE CHOOSE YOUR WORDS CAREFULLY AS I WANT THIS BLOG TO BE AS "SAFE FOR WORK" AS POSSIBLE. If your comment includes graphic descriptions of activity involving minors, it's not going to get published.
