The Walk-In Closet (Formerly Poly Filter now Open)

[edwarddain]

The question came up in the post regarding Collars on the BDSM and Leather filter regarding how one manages being openly or closeted polyamorous/non-monogamous but still maintain the integrity of an ethical set of relationships. Ok, so that's not exactly how it was phrased, but that was what was meant. Ultimately this is an entirely subjective set

I just tend to use their language to explain my point. When someone asks me those questions I just say "I'm not getting serious with anyone right now" or "We have an open relationship"

Yeah, being married can complicate that a bit - and "we have an open relationship" would definitely qualify as inviting them into the closet.

But I know lots of people who work that way and it works pretty damn well.

The other "factor" for sekhmetdancing and I is that it is literally impossible for us to completely closet - there are court documents that show that we were/are polyamorous. Anyone who wants to dig deep enough will be able to find out and that also informs our choices a bit.
