I have been dating my non-nesting partner for two years. I have recently come into realization that we never had an opportunity to talk about our financial goals and retirement plans. I am scared about bringing this up with my partner, especially since we each have our respective nesting spouses and do not share finances with each other. How can I start this discussion with my partner?
My girlfriend recently got involved with someone who has a Don’t Ask Don’t Tell policy with his wife. Even though my partner and I’ve never had a DADT agreement, my meta is enforcing a DADT through my partner and refusing to engage with me on any level. I feel like I’m going crazy.
I want to be in a polyfidelitous relationship with my partner. But I can’t look past the negative criticism against poly-fi relationships, especially online. Is poly-fi even viable? How can we ethically look for our third?
