There is a huge gray area between straight up "swingers" and hard core "polyamorists" (did I just make up a word?).

For us, we fell into it because I fell in love with someone but we have always enjoyed building relationships with those we have sex with. N was open to me exploring that, and I was open to exposing myself to this new love. N has a relationship now too and we have compersion exploding out our ears! :-)

I don't think swinging led to polyamory but rather openness led to swinging and openness led to polyamory.

Love + Love = SO MUCH LOVE!!!

Namaste,
