Polyamory & Open Relationships

Polyamory (from Ancient Greek πολύς (polús) 'many', and Latin amor 'love') is the practice of, or desire for, romantic relationships with more than one partner at the same time, with the informed consent of all partners involved.[1][2] Some people who identify as polyamorous believe in consensual non-monogamy with a conscious management of jealousy and reject the view that sexual and relational exclusivity (monogamy) are prerequisite for deep, committed, long-term, loving relationships.[3] Others prefer to restrict their sexual activity to only members of the group, a closed polyamorous relationship that is usually referred to as polyfidelity.[4][5]

For me there's a bit of a network effect where the polycule sprawls out into the distance. Partners have partners who have partners.

But for disconnected folks, it's mostly been tinder (yuck), and a local meetup.

(Also this might be the first post? That or nothing federated yet)

I kind of struggle with this. Feeld has really been the only positive source of ENM connections in general, platonically and romantically, which is kind of what I'm looking for rn. I recently moved and I wanna build friends and a support network, but Feeld not exactly designed for general connections, it's very slow.

I found a local meetup just recently, I guess my hope is that will help!

So I suppose my suggestion is try feeld if you haven't already. It's got a lot of great people in my experience but it's very buggy
