ADVICE

Be Honest About Where You Are

  • Communicate directly about what you do know while exploring non-monogamy.
  • Tell partners your behaviors, safer-sex practices, and that you're in a discovery phase.
INSIGHT

Two Scripts Trap Dating Choices

  • Dating culture offers two scripts: casual hookups or soulmate trajectories.
  • That binary makes exploring non-monogamy feel like being trapped in 'casual' even when you want intimacy.
ADVICE

Define Behaviors Not Labels

  • Start with clear, small commitments you do know instead of labels.
  • Define practical behaviors you will follow while exploring (e.g., dating multiple people, disclosure practices).
