Good morning from Texas! My family set-up is: my father, my mother (his wife), his “main” girlfriend and 2 “secondary” girlfriends which get changed usually every 2-3 years. Yes, we all live together in the same house - though it’s a big house - so it doesn’t feel crowded. It’s not a religious thing at all, we’re atheists.

    Are the women attracted to each other, or only your father?

    Also has the “main girlfriend” ever been switched? What’s your relationship like with her if she’s not allowed to parent you?

      I didn’t see your second question. No, she has been a long term partner. She’s like a cool aunt, the temporary gfs are more like older female friends. I’m definitely closest with her.

        Thanks for your answers.

        I have a follow-up question. How do you view relationships now? If you are to get in a relationship, would you prioritise a poly one or a monogamous one?

          I prefer mono, but wouldn’t mind poly. To explain: I want to be exclusive (don’t want multiple partners), but wouldn’t mind my partner having other partners as long as they prioritize me. Like my mom’s relationship with my dad.

      I’m fairly certain only to my father. I never asked straight up, but I never saw them act affectionate with one another the way they do with my dad in my entire life, so… I’ll take that as proof.
