Where to start with Rafael? He was one of the first people I started talking to when I became poly, and we talked a lot. We talked for hours and hours over the course of about a month, but we never met in person. We were mutually attracted to each other, and had amazing chemistry… Continue reading This is the story of how I made and lost a best friend within one month.

Time for a little housekeeping.
So far, I’ve been posting in generally chronological order of my experiences. At the time of this writing, I have been polyamorous for two months.

This is the story of how I’ve been ghosted, guilt-tripped, and tricked.
This is actually three stories in one. Fortunately (I guess?) all three of these things didn’t happen with the same guy. They just all happened to me, within a short period of time. I’ve gone on dates with ten men since becoming poly two months ago. That’s a lot, but not a ridiculously huge number.… Continue reading This is the story of how I’ve been ghosted, guilt-tripped, and tricked.
This is the story of how I had to say no too many times.
When I met Aaron, I was moving quickly through my second wave of guys, going on dates and figuring out who I was going to keep seeing. Aaron is local to me, so that was a big bonus.

After getting my heart broken, I went back to the drawing board and reactivated my dating profile, in search of fresh meat. 😉 One of the first connections I made in this “second wave” was a guy named Dallas.

This is the story of how I got my heart demolished.
After I’d been out on a few dates with a few different guys, I was gaining some confidence and getting excited about meeting someone who I could develop a strong emotional and physical connection with. It was only two weeks into my poly journey when I met the first guy who would steal my heart.… Continue reading This is the story of how I got my heart demolished.
This is the story of how I was gaslighted by a douchebag.
Very early in my poly journey, I met a guy named Curtis on a dating app, and we started talking non-stop. Intellectually, we had a strong instant connection, and I enjoyed our conversations—at least at first. Unfortunately, there were a few things that felt off to me. Curtis was outside of my “age range” that… Continue reading This is the story of how I was gaslighted by a douchebag.
This is the story of how I became a slut.
When I met the second guy I dated as a poly person, I was searching for someone who would spark a fire of excitement in me. Ironically, I found it with a firefighter.
