I Am in a Relationship With the World, and Berlin is my Primary Partner I am polyamorous. That means I am open to having more than one committed romantic relationship at a time.

I love my friends, I really do. But try as they might, they really struggled at first to understand my penchant for polyamory. More specifically they didn’t understand my relationships. I remember one time, I was sitting outside at a café, sipping a frothy cappuccino in the sunlight with one of my girlfriends, and gushing…
I find it hard to believe, both that I have been writing this blog long enough for this be my second year-end wrap-up of my Polycule, and that I have been polyamorous long enough to have almost 2 years of writing about it under my belt. So- without further ado… the 2019 Polycule- Wrap-up. Overview…
