Uncomfortable Conversations with Gregory

Asha, the wife of guest Eddy from last show, continues the conversation about polyamorous marriage from the female side of the equation. She describes her lust for new experiences as “wanting to fuck all of life”, and it doesn’t just apply to her sexuality. She ultimately has to realize how to become confident in why she does what she does, even if it means sacrificing other options.

But no matter what you choose, your time and other resources are always finite. You cannot be the best at everything, or anything at all, if you never specialize. To someone in Asha’s position, that could mean being the best at monogamy and dedication to a single partner. It could mean living in one country and devoting herself to a smaller set of passions. A person must first be mature enough to make such big decisions. What does it really choose your own goals? Do you know who you really are if you don't know what you really want?

There’s an ongoing debate around the world about the nature of homosexuality. Are you born a certain way? Is it possible to turn yourself straight or gay through willpower and open-mindedness? How does this apply to other unconventional romantic relationship structures like polyamorous marriage? Or just other forms of unconventional lifestyle exploration?

This show’s guest, a young man named Eddy, talks without reservation about how the most difficult experience of his life, his father’s suicide, helped him grow more than anything else. The family anchor he lost opened new horizons. As a result, he built new standards and values for himself. He had to find out through experimentation what would make him the happier version of himself. He didn’t want to live his life for someone else. Yet, he still longed for deep love and devotion without obligation. What are the limits of self-exploration in the context of your own life? Can anyone really say they are a happy person without extending their limits and feeling their extremes?
