"Yes. Plenty do. I have poly partner and we're ENM.
The key thing is that you BOTH need to be happy with it. If one of you is more keen than the other then avoid. "
Yep. And also, make sure you have clear and open communication. If you're not telling the truth about meeting others, it's not ENM. But enjoy it OP! Hope it works for you.  |

I totally agree with Obi Haive on this one. If there's an imbalance in desire to be open, it *will* eventually bite you in the arse. You both have to be on board with it, or it probably won't work. |

I was in one last time I was part of the lifestyle.
For me, it differs from swinging in that for us, we met non-swingers.
It worked well for us at the time but, like swinging, requires honesty and open communication. |

Yes, I had an open relatioship with my first wife which would be called ENM now (that's how I started swinging), and again with my late third wife. I would have liked to have moved to poly which I think would suit me best but never found the right other person/s. |

We dabbled with this, first Rubik had another partner and worked well, I went on to find someone, however that's where the problems started, one thing I would say communication is absolutely everything, be very clear on everything, if something isn't sitting right with you, don't just let it slide, say something that kind of means what you want it to say but doesn't, you have to say exactly what you mean because sometimes, the person in the other relationship, may have blinkers on and not grasp everything going on around them. I speak from experience here x |
