Polyamory Boundaries

Polyamory thrives on clear communication, trust, and healthy boundaries.

The truth is, most people exploring polyamory know from the start that communication is the glue holding it all together. Every relationship, polyamorous or monogamous, deserves respect, openness, and care. However, in polyamory, there is intentionality when it comes to communication so that love can expand without confusion.

Which came first: Polyamory or Monogamy?

As polyamory becomes more visible in modern society, I found myself wonder: Which came first, polyamory or monogamy?

It turns out that polyamory actually predates monogamy, rooted in early human lifestyles and survival needs.

My next question: Is polyamory making a comeback to meet some modern societal need? It’s clearly not the only factor, but it might be part of the reason we’re seeing more people explore non-monogamous relationships today.

Curious to hear your thoughts: Are we evolving back toward something older, or creating something new?

Polyamory IS NOT Polygamy

What’s the difference between Polyamory and Polygamy?

I was recently asked this question. As I write about loving polyamorous relationships in my novels, I want to be explicitly clear:

MY NOVELS CONTAIN ONLY LOVING RELATIONSHIPS. THERE IS NO COERCION OR ABUSE. AND THERE IS ALWAYS A HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

Note:
If a polygamous relationship involves consent, honesty, and equal autonomy among all partners, without fraud, abuse, or coercion, it can share many characteristics with polyamory. In such cases, the main difference becomes primarily legal and cultural rather than relational.
