Metamour Than You Bargained For

While most of the world views polyamory as "a bunch of degenerats engaging in sexual greed", they are blind to the huge number of asexual people who find fulfilling relationships within the framework of polyamory. Asexuality is a spectrum, and it is different to each person who experiences it. Let's talk about some of the drama, and some of the joy.

Note: we originally uploaded this with some production nonsense at the beginning of the track. Or did we? You heard nothing! (Our apologies for the inconvenience.)

Dating is never easy, but dating when most of the pool of potential partners views you as an "elder" comes with unique challenges. What do you do, when you've already dated everyone that is age appropriate? Spoiler alert - the answer is not "start dating the twenty-year olds", gentlemen...

Welcome to our Bonus Content! These episodes are a little off the standard in that they focus on the spaces within the Venn Diagram between Nonmonogamy and another activity or culture. Today, we are talking about D&D! Party dynamics and polycule dynamics have a lot more in common than you would think, and you'd be surprised how much a Session 0 can help your Table-Top Polycule.

Dating while neurodivergent is tricky. Polyamory while neurodivergent is even harder. Fortunately we've got Lyn and...well, Lyn, to break down stories of success and failure in the space, as well as answer that age old question, "Should I trust the conventionally attractive neurotypical person who seems to be hitting on me?"

Apologies for the late upload, folks. As Sloane makes her way through the immigration process, time management is getting tricky. We'll be back to our usual 9am uploads soon!

Metamour Than You Bargained for is a polyamorous podcast where we take stories from the internet and pour the tea on all of the drama. Polyamorous relationships are hard, but it’s not what pop culture and media makes it out to be. These are real people attempting to live their most authentic non-monogamous lives, as ethically as possible. It’s not always pretty, but it is so real. 

Stories are edited for time, privacy, and coherence.

Being polyamorous often requires a bunch of therapy and effort. So you would think it would all be smooth sailing for this therapist and her five person polycule, right? As it turns out, even the roughest waters are navigable when you're partnered with a competent and communicative crew.

Lots of things shift through our lives. Boundaries, desires, and gender identities. The best thing we can do for ourselves in any situation is to stay true to the person we aspire to be. Being polyamorous makes it easy to find ourselves entangled with strong personalities. How do you stand up for yourself, when you're still learning who you are?

Join Lyn and their co-host CuddlesandSharps as they discuss the art of playing with any body; because treating "fat" like a dirty word is for cowards who have never dreamt of ending their days between a pair of thick thighs.

Interrupting your regularly scheduled polyamorous relationship content - this is Lyn Lawless coming at you raw and unedited. As y'all saw we did not get an episode uploaded yesterday and I'm very sorry about that. We encountered some technical difficulties and by that I mean Sloane's computer was put out of comission by rain and cat hair - but she's trying to get her computer repaired while in a foreign country so I'm sure y'all can understand how troublesome that is. Thank you so much for bearing with us. I promise the episode is done, we just have to find a way to get it uploaded from a dead computer. Please remember to like, share and subscribe so that we can keep this momentum going after we get this sorted out. Also, let me give y'all a secret little update about our patreon and when we will have episodes coming out weekly...

Today we are living La Vida Loca with Evita Sawyers, author sensation and ENM inspiration. Real ENM isn't always pretty, but it's worth it in the end. Growth mindsets are make-or-break for relationships, as long time partners face the difficulties of changing with each other or being left in the dust.

What would a show about metamours be without two metamours? This week, I am herding cats and trying to keep two co-hosts on topic. It's a delightful mess, as we speak to Holly and Nita about self-deprecation, stalkers, and their shared Pretty Boy.
