He Said “Get a Dog” 😳 Poly Dating, Kink & Wild Red Flags | Hard Things Podcast


Listen Later

We dove into a polyamory & kink FB group…and a 29-year-old’s DMs went off the rails fast. From “move to Missouri” in 5 texts to “get a dog” instead of companionship, we unpack dating red flags, double standards (MMF vs FFM), consent, perimenopause + kids, and what real communication looks like in open relationships.

If you’ve navigated poly dating, kink 101, or just modern app chaos—this one’s for you.

In this episode

  • Polyamory basics: roles, boundaries, and consent

  • Kink & communication (no, “sweetheart” isn’t a strategy)

  • MMF vs FFM dynamics—why the double standard?

  • Red flags in DMs: negging, flip-flops, and pressure tactics

  • Perimenopause, fertility, and setting non-negotiables

  • Why clarity > vibes when you’re building a roster or a relationship

💬 Tell us your hottest take on poly dating etiquette.
