Love doesn’t need a limit on numbers, only sincere care.

Polyamory isn't about having more people. It's about sharing more love.

Intentionally family

It’s the holidays. Thoughts turn to family, etc. I have to admit, this is an interesting year for me. My parents are both gone, and with the exception of one cousin, I’m pretty estranged from my family. My husband’s family hasn’t always been easy, but we’ve maintained a relationship. Different points of view, different ways of approaching my son’s autism and my daughter’s outspoken nature haven’t made it easy. With my husband’s parents’ advancing age, we’ve been spending more time with his side of the family. Including yesterday’s Thanksgiving. Each time, I saw him spend a full day mentally gearing up for the visit....and hours in exhausted silence decompressing after. It’s worthy of note that his brother and brother in law said not a word to him during the entire meal, not even a hello. And his brother in-law shuttled our niece out so quickly after dinner was done none of us could speak to her. When we got home, both adult kids and my husband went into separate rooms for several hours to decompress. And I found myself wondering if it was all worth it.

As we were sitting at our Thanksgiving dinner, my kids’ conversation turned briefly to Christmas. In hushed and paused conversation, they asked if their “other family” could be included in some of our celebrations this year. We’ve been out to our kids almost since the beginning, and since moving within a mile-ish of each other last year, our kids have gotten close. When we got back last night, I couldn’t wait to see them-my real family. The family that I get to choose everyday. We talked about that last night. My girlfriend asking me how I felt on days like Thanksgiving without my big family. I used to miss it. I did. But knowing that I can have a family of love rather than a family that leaves you exhausted doesn’t make me miss it anymore.

For those who think polyamory doesn't belong at Pride

I'm not polyamorous, but I am a part of the LGBTQ+ community. I used to think polyamory wasn't lgbtq+. But I was wrong. Here are some things you might not know.

In many companies, you'll find pride initiatives and they'll welcome people from across the spectrum.

But if they find out a married employee has another SO, even if it's an open polyamorous relationship, they can fire that employee. Even companies with non-discriminatory policies.

Can you imagine coming out to a family that accepts you for being bi/gay/ whatever, but won't accept that you're polyamorous?

Can you imagine seeking a community and being shunned by the people who preach acceptance?

Can you imagine being shunned by people in every community?

Can you imagine everyone assuming you just want sex rather than a fulfilling relationship with more than one person?

Can you imagine not being able to date your partner without someone assuming you're cheating? And them assigning you a moral failing that you didn't earn?

Poly is like a sexuality, to my limited knowledge. For instance, I couldn't choose to be poly because i'm just not. But you don't choose who you fall in love with. And some people fall in love more than once.

Polyamory is love. Just like every other sexuality. They belong in the community as much as the rest of us. Excluding people from pride goes against everything the community stands for. So live your truth! Love who you love! And support love no matter what it looks like. Happy pride!

Polyamory: when your partners’ kid loudly says “my WHOLE FAMILY loves this person! And she sleeps with us!”
