Listener Q+A: Adding A Third, Long Distance Poly And Intense Crushes
August 19, 2024 · 55 min

It's our very first listener Q+A episode!

We've collated all the best questions we've got recently and put all the answers in one place. We chat about how to safely add a third to a relationship and the ethical considerations that go with it. We answer questions on transitioning to a long distance dynamic, how to deal with intense crushes and what meaningful media representation looks like.

To kick off, Rich shares a recent experience of being ghosted after coming out as poly to a prospective partner.

We really hope you enjoy this episode and encourage you to send us questions for the next one.
