The Real Price of DIY Non-Monogamy
I break down five often-overlooked costs that can derail your non-monogamous journey:
- Trust Bankruptcy: How small mistakes create lasting damage
- Emotional Debt Spiral: The compound interest of unprocessed feelings
- Community Isolation: Why going it alone increases risk
- Time Lost to Recovery: The true cost of preventable mistakes
- Relationship Wear and Tear: Understanding cumulative damage
Each of these can silently erode the foundation of your relationships, often before you even realize what's happening.
