Polyamory 101: Real-Life Strategies for Communication, Time Management, and Thriving in Non-Traditional Relationships

By Lauren Miller

Ever wondered what happens when your Google Calendar has more color-coding than NASA mission control, your bathroom cabinet looks like a medical supply store exploded inside it, and explaining your relationship status to your mom involves a whiteboard and hand puppets? Welcome to the gloriously messy, surprisingly practical world of polyamory.

In this refreshingly honest, laugh-out-loud guide to loving multiple people without losing your mind (or misplacing your partners), Lauren Miller shares the unfiltered truth about navigating multiple relationships in a world built for twos. From accidentally becoming a unicorn hunter after swearing she never would, to that time her daughter announced to her entire kindergarten class that she has "two dads and they both snore," Lauren offers a field guide to ethical non-monogamy that no one else is brave (or unhinged) enough to write.

You'll discover:

Why scheduling is more important than lingerie in maintaining multiple healthy relationshipsHow to have the STI conversation without killing the mood (or only slightly killing it)The art of introducing your partners to your extended family without becoming the next holiday dinner's main topicWhy "we need to talk about our relationship" takes on terrifying new dimensions when you have to specify WHICH relationshipThe unexpected perks nobody mentions, like having someone to call when you're locked out and your primary partner has silenced their phone

Whether you're polyamorous, poly-curious, or just wondering how anyone manages to maintain multiple relationships when you can barely keep your succulents alive, this book offers equal parts practical advice and emotional support, wrapped in stories that will make you laugh until your metamour asks what's so funny.

Because there's no one right way to do polyamory-except with honesty, good communication, and a Google Calendar that deserves its own dedicated server.
