For this week's episode, the Multiamory crew is taking a much-needed break, and featuring episode 308 of Normalizing Non-Monogamy: Bru + Mark! Hosts Emma and Fin talk with Bru and Mark about their guests' relatively recent journey of opening up their long partnership. For Emma and Fin, life is all about seeking out adventure, embracing the chaos, and meeting amazing people along the way. They are in their mid thirties, met in seventh grade, and have been together since their freshman year of college. A year or so into their relationship it was obvious that exploring everything life had to offer was part of who they were as individuals, and as a team. They were very young at the time and neither had really experienced the world of dating, so they created a way to explore aspects of the dating world without ending their relationship, through non-monogamy. Fast forward about 11 years and they decided to start a weekly podcast called Normalizing Non-Monogamy in 2018. They absolutely love meeting new people and hearing their stories and through this podcast they get to interview people from all over the world who are exploring non-monogamy on their own terms. The hope is that if they can get enough of those stories out into the world that it will provide a resource for anyone who is considering non-monogamy. They also want to show that non-monogamy is more common than most people think and that it can be done in an ethical and consensual way. Overall, the mission is to inspire people to embrace their true selves so that, together, we can open minds and live authentically without shame.Find more about them and Normalizing Non-Monogamy at https://www.normalizingnonmonogamy.com/!

We'll be going over some pros and cons of the relationship escalator, some research about how quickly people tend to escalate in relationships, and how to navigate your journey if the relationship escalator is something you want in your life.

Triforce of Communication: 1. Building intimacy or sharing 2. Seeking support or acknowledgement (sympathy/ empathy) 3. Seeking advice or problem solving To remember which Triforce is which... 1. Just in case you were wONEdering, this is what's going on with me right now (or one person sharing, the other listens) 2. It takes TWO people to hug 3. If you're building a THREE-sided pyramid, you need a team of people to come together to solve the problem & for planning 😆
1. What behavior from others runs counter to my personal values? 2. Create a boundary that addresses that behavior (Remember! Boundaries are about protecting myself, not changing someone's behavior) 3. Determine how this boundary will actually be enforced.
Well this is pretty heartbreaking. I was excited to be open but learning I can't ask my partner to prioritize me makes me question if I really want this at all. Monogamy sucks. But the idea of not being allowed to ask for commitment and care when you want or need it....why have a relationship at all if they don't even have to commit to consistently acting like you matter?
Ummm can we talk about how adorable you guys were at 36:59?? Do you even KNOW that you're vibin like that? 😄😁👍
Please consider that asking listeners to post on instagram about your podcast requires that people publicly out themselves. For myself and many others, it is not safe to be out due to the nature of my employment (teaching) and the fact that I am a parent.
loving your new intro!
I can be very critical myself. Personally, I've loosened up on my dishwasher loading skills and I have my boyfriend rinse the dishes as I put them in. He also helps me put away any dishes that he can. I rearrange things all the time so I can find the best way to store things, so I'm very understanding of his being lost sometimes. But trust me, I have plenty of other things that I need to work on.
Thank y’all so very much for this episode! I feel it will help evolve my growth in emotional intelligence and definitely something I will share at our next fam meeting.
may I ask where episodes 2 to 74 went? they do. or appear in my list
♥️♥️♥️
This was sooo useful. Understanding me and some of my relationships much better with this info. Thank you so so so much for creating and working so hard in Multiamory, it is such an important tool in my life. 🤗
I have actually dealt with all of these lol. I had a toxic family relationship that I was actually able to cut off for the most part. I had elements of my relationships with my wife that we both were feeling toxic to each other, but that turned out to be us trying to fit into a dynamic that didn't work for us, so we fixed it. and now I've got a metamour relationship that's proving super difficult to deal with and it's not easily dealt with because we can't exactly leave because we all live together. so I've kinda run the gamut on this 😅
fantastic!
I loved this episode!!!
MUST BE NICE to sleep 8.5 hours if you don't have a child. Guess we parents are all screwed!!!😓😡
This is one of the best episodes I have heard yet! Very interesting topic, and an interesting segue into expressing masculinity. My favorite part is the the theory of expression culture as an alternative to guess culture or ask culture (which each can create coercive circumstances).
This particular episode has been super helpful as I've been questioning a lot about myself and my relationship. your podcast is amazing, thank you for doing this and please keep up the good work!
love love love this podcast. literally have been telling everyone I know about it. ❤️❤️❤️
It's really off-putting, as a married, non-hierachical polya person, that you folks are always mocking and treating marriage as a punchline or as anathema to ENM.
great people talking about great things in a great way. extremely educational helpful and fun
