The past few weeks have been a wild roller-coaster. Buckle up, because this is going to be a long one. (Like, seriously long.) Where do I start? It all began when Romeo brought up polyamory. Throughout our relationship, we have casually discussed our choice to be monogamous, at least for a season, and the possibility… Continue reading To Poly or Not to Poly

Are We Out of the Woods Yet?
As of yesterday, Romeo and I have been together for seven months and cohabitating for one. We’ve seen each other every day and spent every night together for over two months. I can confidently say that our NRE or “new relationship energy” stage is over and we’ve settled into our new normal together. I’ve been… Continue reading Are We Out of the Woods Yet?
Marry Me, Romeo
It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here. Life has been busy, and changing very quickly in big ways. Romeo and I have been together for over five months now, and we are about to become nesting partners. I moved out of my house where I lived with my husband in January, and got… Continue reading Marry Me, Romeo
Dear Romeo
Dear Romeo, Where to start? You wrote me a letter tonight, and I thought it was only fair to respond. As you said, it has been 120 days since we met, and neither of us had any idea what was to come when that first conversation began. Neither of us could have imagined this love… Continue reading Dear Romeo

But now, I’ve found my Romeo and things are very much settled for me. I have him, my one boyfriend, and no other romantic… Continue reading Story time is over.
This is the story of how I discovered that sexual compatibility is a real thing.
For readers who may not know this, I grew up in the American Evangelical Church, and continued to embrace it as an adult until recently. The AEC is a term commonly used for the most dominant form of “Christianity” within the United States of America. It has a culture all its own, and a big… Continue reading This is the story of how I discovered that sexual compatibility is a real thing.
This is the story of UGGHHHH.
What is my life now? The short answer is, I feel like I’m living for the times I can be with Romeo. What about the times in between? I’m existing. Just existing. Maintaining things—my life, my family, my house, my responsibilities. Of course, I need this time without Romeo to maintain things. Or at least… Continue reading This is the story of UGGHHHH.
This is the story of several little big things.
I am approaching my two month milestone of being together with Romeo, and things are still going strong. Stronger and stronger every day, despite how impossible that seems, in fact. Every day we find ways to up the ante again and again. Our love is stupidly, absurdly, disgustingly, intense and powerful. And yeah, I get… Continue reading This is the story of several little big things.
This is the story of how I became fearless.
