November 5 topic – Polyamory/CNM during the holiday
Holidays can be tricky, navigating family and social events. When you are polyamorous, holidays can be complicated. We will delve into questions like: Which partner do you take to which events? Can you take all of your partners? What do you do when you are the partner left behind? The family is all together, is this the time to come out? We will also have a discussion about what makes being Polyamorous joyful during the holidays, traditions you have or would like to start, and how we can celebrate together and separately.
Join us for a rich discussion and share experiences and tips for getting through the holidays while Polyamorous.
