'What lockdown is like when you have three partners'
and a sex and dating expert who's in a polyamorous relationship shares her lockdown experience:
I live with my partner, and have been during lockdown, and – though this has been fun for both of us – having one partner for a long period of time isn’t enough for us.
Tensions inevitably develop in long-standing relationships, so having fresh companionship and romantic and/or sexual energy that does not exclude one’s partner is really helpful from both an emotional and physical standpoint.Just before entering lockdown, we discussed bringing someone in to join us on a more semi-permanent level, as we would have a lot of time on our hands.
Normally, we would meet them at a party, or through friends, or online in forums, and go for drinks, and actually date the person. It’s fun, free and flirty. It hasn’t been the same during lockdown when you’re limited to who you can meet, and we are using sources that we haven’t previously, so security is always at the back of our minds.
