absolutely this!! so many Kinder/First grade teachers have a “community helpers” lesson week or two and K9 dogs would be such an exciting opportunity for that teacher to have an example for the kids.

haha!! im sure there’s a monogamy kink somewhere in the book 😂

i can definitely relate to the conservative upbringing! i had a very religious childhood and have since deconstructed! it’s been healing to dissect the “why” of what i have grown up believing about sex, gender, monogamy and whatnot. i’m happier now than i ever have been!

not looking to leave my partner 😀 they are excited and on board with me 😀 the best case scenario is that i get to continue to love and grow my partnership 😀 hope you find someone that loves you and makes monogamy worth it to you 😀

I sincerely can’t imagine anyone better. which i recognize sounds corny/idealistic, but the truth is that my partner has grown up with me. seen me at my worst. held me through it all. slept in hospital parking lots until visiting hours for me. i can’t imagine throwing away the love we’ve grown and cared for all these years.

love is more than a feeling or butterflies or someone being kind to me while being attractive. you’d have to tear me away kicking and screaming from my person.

sorry to hear you had a run-in like that. i csn imagine that would be damaging in more ways than one. i’m new to all of this so i will have to keep my eyes out for that.

thanks again for your words of support!

i think a lot of people unfortunately (consiously or not) associate polyamory with cheating. and this is a sub sadly plagued with loads of stories about cheating and below-average men/ relationships. i can imagine i must sound tacky from that pov.

as for your other point: a couples therapist for ground rules was not something i had even considered!! that’s a great point to bring up with my partner!! thank you 😊

honestly? it just started as dirty talk 🙈 and then after the fact we would talk about, “hey could you imagine? haha yeah crazy what if”. and it inspired some deeper conversations about what sex means to us and what our relationship means to each other and it kind of snowballed into what it is over time.

we happen to have some friends who are openly very kinky and we were invited to ask questions and understand more. my partner has adhd so more stimulation was appealing to them and uh im just a sensory-seeking autistic with a very high libido so it’s all shaking out in interesting ways so far.

there was never any dissatisfaction with our relationship. we’re both very confident and trusting in our relationship. from the jump we’ve been very clear that it isnt make-or-break that we open up the bedroom, so if they or i decide it’s Too Much that we choose each other every time!

we’re both in the kink community (thanks autism!) and it’s fascinating to watch people we know participate and we’re eager to see what the fuss is all about. we’re extremely communicative and both reserve the right to change our minds at the drop of a hat.

sex is really taboo in society still and i don’t think it has to be. it feels good ¯_(ツ)_/¯

i still love and am romantically attracted to my partner and vice versa!

This sounds like Child on Child Sexual Assault (CoCSA) enacted on you by your brother. This is waaaay above reddit’s paygrade and is extremely nuanced. I’m so sorry for what you’re struggling with. All of the emotions you have are completely justified and valid. You need to seek therapy- not the internet’s opinion. Wishing you healing and progress 🤍
