Start your non-monogamous journey with confidence. Opening your relationship, dating multiple people at once, or even considering a relationship structure outside of conventional monogamy, can raise a lot of questions. This exploratory class will go over key topics for beginners to help you understand various possible relationship structures, how to create "training wheel" agreements and when to revise them, when and how to disclose information to various partners, and how to behave with integrity when you experience jealousy.
This class is intended to give you applicable advice for your new non-monogamous relationships. We will include a robust Q&A section, where you can hear from other people navigating similar situations, so come prepared with your own questions! And we'll answer some questions that you probably didn't even consider asking.
