I've known some of these friends for 25 years. Long enough that when I went home to South Jersey after three years away, I wasn't scared of being judged — I was scared of being disqualified. Like any changed version of me might not get to keep the relationship we already had.
So this time, I finally told them the truth: I'm polyamorous, and I have been living that out loud for a while now. In this episode, I talk about what it's like to come out a second time — because being bi stopped being news years ago, but this one still felt terrifying to say. I talk about the cost of staying quiet when a need isn't in your partner's wheelhouse, and why that silence isn't fair to either of you. And I talk about what actually happened when I told my friends the truth: it went fine. Better than fine. It was exactly what I should have expected all along.
If you've ever been afraid that being honest about who you are might cost you the people who've known you longest — this one's for you.
