In this episode, I describe how Anya’s desire to stay with her pre-existing lover forced me to choose: did I want a polyamorous relationship, or not?In 2024, my wife and I found out I’m not our daughter’s biological father. I tell the story of our open marriage, describing in forensic detail how we ended up in this unusual situation and pausing along the way to explore bigger topics around polyamory: conquering jealousy and relationship fear, balancing rules, trust and freedom, and managing communication with other people.
