Tell me about your polyamorous identities in the comments. I’m sure I’ve missed plenty of you off! Make yourselves heard.

Urban tibe? 🙂
I like that. 😀
Hello. 😀 I must say, I love your website and everything posted. :DDD WOOT POLY. :DDD
whats FWB? damn, there are so many labels+made up expressions, i feel like a need a dictionary…;-)
Friends With Benefits. 🙂 It’s a term I don’t really like, but no one has come up with a better one yet. And I can’t think of a better one either, so FWB will have to do!
I actually really like “Friends with Benefits.” I think it’s a term that’s sort of degraded by mainstream/compulsory-monogamy-culture, because it seems to assume that you’re just fucking this person to tide you over until you find a “real” date… But in a non-monogamous work, some people just are friends that you happen to have sex with sometimes, and there’s no need to question that status as “filler” or “wanting something else but just can’t have.” I like that.
“Loving friends”, “platonic partners”, “deep friendship”, “sexual friendship”, “truly platonic”, and “itch-scratchers” are all terms that I have heard in regards to different FWB relationships.
MY Umbrella ella-ella 😀 Just kidding. Golf umbrellas are also handy, yes Kai? As someone who discovered this whole thing pretty recently, my usual descriptive term might be ” What? with communication and stuff? THANK F**K FOR THAT” Or The Swansea Glomp.
Urban tribe has rather more grace 😀
There are also things like Ns (Or Zs depending on which you prefer) Quads, Dyads, etc =)
Group marriage, poly-fi, open relationships, Don’t Ask/Don’t Tell…?
How on earth would you store that amazing umbrella! It is too fabulous to fit in any umbrella stand I’ve ever known.
Thank you for the cake! I like chocolate please!
“Packmates”
I’m in an open relationship with a lover, play partner, lovers good friend who I am good FWB with. My boyfriend is open, but has been a swinger longer. We both play with friends who are FWB and FWC.
I have a lover, a good play partner kinda lover and I have various people I play with on occasion.
Oh and I had my first group smexy time/cuddle/kissing experiance. 😀
I think my umbrella would be more a large tent.
