We are curious about this lifestyle. Living in a smaller city though has its limitations. What have your experiences been when first "coming out" among friends and or relatives about this? Or do you keep it all private?

My family kind of pushed their way in and I had to tell them to back off and leave us alone. Then again being polyamorous was only a check mark in a long list of things my family doesn't approve of about me.

Sigel's family honestly couldn't care less about him let alone who he is sleeping with and Arch's Mom and Dad love him enough to be happy that he is much happier with Sigel and I than he was without. We work and it has made us better people so we don't tend to hide who we are and what we do...except when it comes to sex. We firmly believe that our children have no business knowing about our sexual practices and we do not allow them in the bedroom in that fashion. We are affectionate toward each other and they know we are a "triple" (as opposed to a couple) but they don't know much more than that.
Our friend's are fairly supportive and if they have problems with our choices they don't tend to stick around very long. Not that we drive them away but we don't believe in changing who we are to suit someone else's notions of propriety. Honestly, if you met us in public you would think we are all just a "normal" family despite mixing paganism and catholicism and being poly!

I have to keep it all private. I wish I had something like you do, Airen!

^ This will be me in the future, with a family!
I wish I had something like you do, Airen! My partner and I decided that when we find a stable third then we'll tell our family and friends. It's definitely tough though, because my family has a long list of things they don't approve of that I've done/am doing.

My family, and especially my mother are delusional to the fact that I'm Bi no matter how many times I explain and tell them. Whatever... >.> I'm also Pagan while my Fiancee is a Satanist. He also wants to be a female, but I told him to keep his penis, while on the other hand, I'd like to see what it's like to have a penis...

I also live in a smaller city and I keep things fairly private. I do go out with my two ladies at times but we try to keep affection and things to a 'social norm' minimum.
