Hello Polyam Comrades hexbear-polyam

Hopefully your week is starting off well! Sorry for not posting over the holidays, my brain wasn't functional enough to do it, but here we are back at it in the new year. To help foster a safe and inclusive space for polaymory discussion, we wanted to provide weekly discussion topics! The goal is that we share our stories and our experiences, listen to each other, provide safe space for each other, and learn from each other. Please ask questions and provide answers in good faith only, let's be the wonderful communicators I know we all are.

This week's discussion topic is: Ask That Burning Question You Have!

Maybe you're new to polyamory and are unsure about something and need some clarifications, maybe you've seen polyamory in a movie and are wondering if that's how it really is, maybe you're a polyam pro but need a suggestion for a better calendar app than google calendar to manage your various polycule schedules (this is me someone please help me I'm overwhelmed by my google calendar right now I've got like pod's pods on there and it's not helpful anymore).

Please feel free to use this thread to suggest future discussion topics as well, ideas you have to foster a better community, or feedback you have about the community.

    Not sure how to describe myself in actuality between poly and aro but how do I deal with feeling like my heart just isn't as big as others. I don't have the capacity to love as much as the others in my life and it gives me awful feelings that only feed into each other and make it worse

      I hope someone can provide some perspective or insight into this with you because I think it's interesting. I have known aro polyam folks before but never well enough to really understand their perspective. I know it works for people though! They definitely aren't mutually exclusive
