Reflecting on the challenges of open relationships, I notice they often boil down to two emotions: jealousy and possessiveness.

Jealousy prevents us from finding joy in others' experiences and is, at its core, an inability to value another person. It often stems from our own feelings of inadequacy.

Possessiveness is a feeling we understand with material things - but why would we want to possess another person? Isn't that concept inherently outdated?

Both emotions are human, but freeing ourselves from them can open the door to a genuinely appreciative relationship.

The book "Love in abundance - a counselor's advice on open relationships" laying on a white table. It is a paperback book with a historical painting by Karel van Mander. The painting shows a couple of naked people in a typical 17th century setting. The female nudes are in light colours at the front and the male nudes are in darker colours at the back. They seem to be having a party (instruments and carafes) in the countryside. The painting is half covered by a white curtain. The title is in the right-hand corner of the cover. Also the name of the author, Kathy Labriola.

If you’ve been on a gay dating app lately, you’ll know that there are almost more men in open relationships than closed ones. Since my last boyfriend and now, something definitely has shifted in the dating landscape.

Le principal problème quand on est un homme en couple libre, c'est de trouver une partenaire, surtout lorsque l'on habite une région reculée comme la mienne 😅

De base, c'est déjà dur pour un hommage, mais ça l'est encore plus quand on est en couple libre. C'est confirmé par une connaissance. Encourageant hein ?

Il existe bien des réseaux et sites de rencontres, mais ils sont souvent peu adaptés car généralistes.

À noter que la notion de "couple libre" est souvent mal comprise et ça m'a parfois valu de l'hostilité...

Voici ma définition d'un couple libre : ma compagne et moi gardons l'exclusivité de l'amour, mais on est libre d'avoir d'autres partenaires sexuels.

Chacun de son côté, en toute autonomie (en accord avec nos règles).

The trouble with bullet-based news reporting that it often leaves out context. For example, see the definition of #polyamory in this piece. They think it's only about sex.

🌹 Utah may be famous for its polygamy, but a new player is entering the scene: "Ethical nonmonogamy"

Recreating eaten post:

I miss #OpenRelationship community. Familiar faces, friend base, and locus of social activity. Not that I had great success with starting or maintaining many romantic relationships. But I met some cool folks that way. Most of my Face Friends are from there. And the demographics were a bit closer to mine (perhaps for geographic reasons).

I spend much of my time keeping to myself at home due to the pandemic that is still very much pan. It makes even occasional events a risky endeavor, particularly with talking at volume in large groups.
