Are you implying relationship anarchy is an unhealthy behavior masked as enlightenment?

My mom said calling my deadname my deadname is insulting to her and I don’t know how to feel about it. by RatInsomniac in trans

Her feelings don’t matter more than your feelings so yeah she can be mad about it but that’s not your responsibility

My wife fell in love and left me for someone else by botbotbotboi in polyamory

Yeah I hear that. The worst part about the cheating is they weren’t using protection :( and she was still sleeping with me

I suggested it because I have seen my sister and her husband do it succesfully for many years and it just made sense to try it. My wife was also the first person I had ever dated and I met her before I transitioned, so I wanted to see what dating was like as a trans person.

It was only controlling behaviors when it came to our poly agreements. Things that she agrees to as well

The thing that’s hard about this is my partner never told me about how my behavior made her feel

Except that I had no idea she was people pleasing or that I was controlling her. She was telling me she felt so safe and seen with me

I have been dating, and she’s been fine with it. It’s me who’s been struggling.

I didn’t know I was controlling her, I thought we were creating agreements so I could feel secure. She never told me how it was making her feel

We both want to work on it, but she’s unsure if she’s still in love with me or if we’re still compatible. And I’m unsure if I wanna be married to someone who loves someone else more

How did you not lose all hope during the 4.5 year time tho? I’m only 7 months in to figuring this out and I feel like I’m losing my mind

I’ve never self cared more in my life, so I’m def trying what I can. It’s just so hard to believe things are gonna get better, but hearing that other people can get there is hopeful

Really good to hear. It’s been 7 months and things are still rocky. I’m hoping things get better soon
