As the second youngest of 7, I was more rebellious than my siblings.   Being the party girl, I did everything I could to test familial boundaries.&nbsp; To say our household was strict\u2026.well I\u2019m sure you can imagine. And the stricter my parents were, the more I rebelled.&nbsp; I listened to music too loudly, spoke my mind too often, and usually received the standard warning:&nbsp; \u201cour way or the highway\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">Age 13, life would throw me a major curve that would ultimately crush most of my familial ties. Friends and family alike would constantly question how I could be such a brat and not follow traditions, and yet be a good student?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">Which brings me to the reason we are all here!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">My freshman year of college I met the most amazing woman.&nbsp; I didn\u2019t even know I liked women. Imagine my total shock when I fell in love.&nbsp; I know people say at 16 or 17, you don\u2019t really know what love is. But we were together for 8 years. &nbsp;I believe there can be exceptions in everything. The possibilities are out there.&nbsp; Are we open-minded enough to accept these gifts when they present themselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">During that epic journey, self-discovery was the constant educator.&nbsp; By inviting other women into our relationship it taught me how to be rooted in my own soul. It required me to see things differently within my entire universe.&nbsp; As I was able to evolve my best companion was shedding off the restraints of conventional living.&nbsp; I no longer had any desire to believe that I had to marry a man, as my family routinely told me was my responsibility, our tradition, my oath to the church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">Don\u2019t get me wrong:&nbsp; I\u2019m not anti-religion nor anti-tradition. It pleases me greatly to see mainstream religion being more open and welcoming in 2023.&nbsp; It\u2019s been a long time coming.&nbsp; However, I\u2019m much more open to being able to live my life as I choose. To love the woman or women that grip my heart in those breathtaking, knee shaking, soul surrendering ways!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\">Is polyamory the easiest way to do that?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">I could lie and say yes, but it\u2019s not. It\u2019s more work than some people have the fortitude for.&nbsp; But in my opinion, finding the right combination in polyamory is worth every painstaking moment. It\u2019s a lot. It\u2019s more for those determined to stick it out for the long haul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">Let\u2019s face it, every relationship is a commitment. We know this. What I learned the first time around was to trust in my partners but trust my own voice as well. Ask questions!&nbsp; Be certain your heart and soul are truly ready to share them with others. Get to know your partner before bringing in a third person. Be solid in&nbsp; your footing. Be firmly planted in who you are, not just as a couple, but in yourself. Know your worth. Know in your heart your partner\u2019s worth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">I am no expert in this world of polyamory, and continue to listen and learn daily. We encourage each of you to follow your heart, and let the world offer itself up to you as you deserve.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">My team and I have been working on this project for several years, and now has finally come to fruition. We welcome each and every one of you and encourage you to explore the world of Poly Partners\u00a9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-medium-font-size\">Be kind, safe, and  be loved!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poly Partners\u00a9 hopes to represent those within the community, a voice and safe place to find a great match.
