Having had plenty of correspondence and already met a fabulous couple who really want a polyamorous relationship with me. Having not had any experience in this before I’m still getting my head around it.
Anyone ever experienced a real relationship like this? Any tips, advice would be very much appreciated.

I would say after a few correspondence it's a bit early to be entering into a relationship with this couple. Surely you shpuld at least meet before talking about a relationship. That sort of relationship is really hard work and takes a special kind of mindset from everyone involved. |

Lots of constant communication.
There are a lot of online resources and books that talk about poly and how you can deal with the inevitable conflicts. Don't imagine they won't arise, it's a relationshio, one that needs more communication and a lot of work but can ultimately be very rewarding. |

Exactly this, lots of reading. If you can get to talk to people in poly relationships as well that will be helpful too |

Communication is the key. What do they want from you within the relationship? Do you want what they are offering. How much commitment is expected etc etc |

If you are looking for a poly relationship, have you been looking at all the potential people you could have this with, to filter options down to those who you are most compatible with?
Whilst a new relationship can be very alluring for most of us, it's generally good to look at things in a level headed way. Work out what you want and how the relationship would match your needs, self-identity and other aspects of your whole life. Are the costs what you want to pay in the longer term?
When I date I don't commit all in one go, I stay single and enjoy the qualities of single life coupled with a dating part. If this style of dating is new to you, you can date exploring new options, multiple people and relationships, as they'll all be different - sometimes we need to experience and taste choices to know what is better for us.
All along communicate as much as possible, keep things clear. |
