FINDING POLY LIFE AND POLY LOVE


The prospect of finding multiple romantic partners for a long term relationship can seem daunting. Knowing some people will shudder at the thought of polygamy and/or polyamory creates a natural sense of reluctance to always be as open and honest about your lifestyle as you need to be. In time you will build confidence. Looking for a sister wife or to get involved in a relationship with multiple partners won’t feel so odd to mention. People reacting negatively to your desires will eventually have little effect on you aside from a brief sigh. Until you’ve reached that level of confidence having a few safe places to be yourself and find friends and dates will be a life saver. Active participation in the polyamorous or polygamy community will also help build confidence in the community overall. 


Polyamorous Meetups  are an excellent option. Groups already exist or you can create a Meetup that is more in tune with your preferences. Read Meetups descriptions carefully as there are groups with very specific standards and desires. Polygamy specifically is not a term accepted by some polyamorous people. If you are seeking a sister wife you will not find her at a swingers event (most likely). If you’re seeking a second husband you will not find him at a polygamy event so easily as a polygyny gathering. Brush up on your terminology and know exactly what you want to find. This helps ensure you find the correct Meetup or help create one with clear details of the desired crowd for the event. 


Polyamory Events are popping up all over the world and their sheer size makes them an excellent option to find your soulmates in an offline environment. The prospect of finding people from your area to build a local poly community or set up smaller local activities is another bonus to major events. Being broad and less specific due to the large number of people involved allows you to explore different facets of the polyamory world and to share your world with others. You may realize there are possibilities you hadn’t considered before. Your ideas might spark an unknown passion in someone else. Keeping an open mind and sharing the joy of polyamory only leads to better outcomes for everyone involved.  


Online poly communities and dating sites remain the most accessible resource for poly dating. It’s easier to avoid meeting the wrong groups or people as well. If you are a polygamist and want a very traditional sister wife to join your family you can be very specific about that and find women looking for a polygamist family to join. If you are a polyamorous single person or family looking for dates or more lovers you can find them with relative ease this way. Being specific and targeting your audience is far easier online than most real life circumstances. The added benefit of building and maintaining an online community is having a supportive place to turn for continued friendships, fun, and advice. 


Watch out for fake accounts and scammers, as with any online dating, and use dating sites that are committed to your privacy and protection like Sister Wives. With only a little effort you can be chatting with possible soul mates and building new friendships in no time. Be honest, active, and straightforward and your ideal poly matches will find you.

Becoming a Sister Wife: A Candid Look at Love and Fulfillment


So you have decided that becoming a sister wife might be the key to finding the love and happiness you have been missing. It is a bold choice and an exciting one. Still, stepping into the world of polygamy or polyamory is not always sunshine and roses. Sometimes it can feel like an uphill climb. People may judge, and you might even wonder if you are making the right call. If you truly believe this lifestyle fits who you are and does not harm anyone, staying the course can lead to profound happiness.


Toughen Up Against Judgment


The first major hurdle you will face is other people’s opinions. Their negativity usually says more about them than you. If you feel fulfilled and harm nobody, you owe no one an explanation. Develop the kind of mental armor that repels harsh judgments. Smile, stay grounded in your happiness, and remember that it is not your job to validate someone else’s worldview.


Polygamous Dating: Easier Said Than Done


If you thought conventional dating was complicated, brace yourself. Polygamous or polyamorous dating has the usual ups and downs multiplied by the number of people involved. You may encounter different views on commitment, varying ideas about intimacy, and unique long-term goals. Some families are rigid; others are more flexible. Some want children; others do not. Some follow specific religious beliefs; others do not.

Be direct about your wants and needs. Without openness and honesty, you risk wasting time or facing heartbreak.


Traditional Polygamy: Know What to Expect


Many traditional polygamous setups involve a single male leading the household, and sister wives typically do not engage in sexual activity with anyone but him. Women in these families often fill conventional roles such as child-rearing and home management, usually alongside a shared religious foundation.

It is worth noting that traditional polygamist families can experience intense scrutiny and sometimes relocate to areas where people share or respect their beliefs. If you are considering a traditional polygamous lifestyle, be ready for the possibility of moving or becoming part of a tight-knit community.


Modern Polyamory: A Freer Approach


On the other end of the spectrum, modern polyamorous families are becoming more visible. You may still have a central idea of a sister wife dynamic, but roles often look very different from traditional norms. Women might be lesbian, bi, or straight. Men might be gay, straight, or somewhere in between. Religious affiliation is not always a factor.

Basically, anything goes if all partners agree and communicate well. Everyone must be on the same page regarding sexual boundaries and emotional support. Think of it as a choose-your-own-adventure, open-minded and fluid, designed to match each person’s needs.


Facing the Realities of Dating


Even when you have a clear picture of your preferences, joining an existing family or starting a new plural relationship can be tricky. Expect the following:


Communication Missteps: More people involved can mean more misunderstandings.

Bigger Heartbreaks: Losing one partner is tough, but losing two or three can be devastating.

Logistical Challenges: Coordinating schedules and emotional support takes skill and effort.


The best plan is to stay honest and expect the same from others. If an arrangement does not line up with your beliefs, do not force it. There are plenty of other families and partners who may be a better fit.


Connect with Supportive Communities


Finding like-minded people can make all the difference. Online forums and social media groups for polyamory or polygamy give you a place to ask questions, share experiences, and discover tips for navigating your unique relationship setup. Some families even use these platforms to find potential partners.

Engaging in open dialogue helps you figure out who is truly compatible. Do not shy away from asking direct questions. It might feel awkward, but it can prevent bigger issues down the road.


Put Your Happiness First


No matter what shape your relationship takes, nurturing a healthy sense of self is essential. When you love who you are, you can share yourself more genuinely with others. This self-assuredness is especially important when exploring a lifestyle that society might not fully understand.

Remember, becoming a sister wife is not about meeting someone else’s standard. It is about recognizing the kind of partnership that brings you joy and a sense of purpose. Stay true to yourself, find supportive communities, and communicate honestly. Everything else will fall into place, one conversation and connection at a time.

All This Love but Why Do I Still Feel Low,


The holidays bring loads of joy to many people. The excitement of holiday parties and spending time with loved ones you may rarely get to see puts a smile in many hearts. However, there is a darker side to the holidays. Financial problems, family problems, relationship troubles, pressure to find the perfect gift, and the list is endless. Being in a poly relationship brings great joy to your life but can also expose you to the risk of negative situations that could turn your holiday joy into a seasonal depression.


Family members sometimes struggle accepting polygamous or polyamorous relatives and they may not realize the severe effect they have on them. Being a sister wife or being involved with multiple partners will always be outside of social norms for many people and depression from feeling like an outcast by those people is an inevitable struggle. Finding family and friends that support you as well as finding others with your poly life in common is key to overcoming the shadow some others would like to cast over you. Find groups online to form a community and turn to your partner and or partners when times feel tough. Don’t avoid these conversations in an effort to keep everyone happy. It doesn’t work in the long run.


Depression over finances is a major and growing issue for the majority of Americans. The suicide rate has been increasing dramatically and shows no sign of slowing down. Much of this is due to financial burdens, lack of resources, and low wages. The holidays can magnify financial woes and send a person over the tipping point. poly families often enjoy the benefit of multiple incomes in one household but this is too often not true or leaves one feeling they need to keep up or do more. Keeping an open dialogue about money is absolutely vital in maintaining a healthy relationship and in ensuring one of your partners is not struggling with an unknown depression over money. If money is tight there are plenty of ways to enjoy the holidays without breaking the bank.


Skip gifts altogether or choose just one great gift the whole house can enjoy. Plan an amazing holiday celebration at home instead of traveling. Draw names so each person in the household needs only to buy one gift for one other partner. If you have kids you can have everyone only buy gifts for the kids. There are few greater joys than watching the excitement when children open gifts. Spend the holidays with your poly family helping others by volunteering to feed the homeless. Helping people in need is an eye opening experience that will help you focus on the positive things in your life.


Depression can be tough to overcome. It can derive from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), a chemical imbalance, chronic pain, unresolved relationship issues, a loss, or many things. If you are experiencing depression that just won’t subside do not be afraid to reach out for help. If you cannot talk to your partners, friends, or family about it there are resources that allow you to remain anonymous. Phone numbers and resources can be found in this link. No matter how tough it seems, you are loved, and you can find happiness again.


Sister Wives is not just a Poly Dating Site, they are also a poly support network. Is your Poly Family depending on your situation? You are all together for a reason. Don’t forget the love you all share. Sometimes you have to force yourself to be positive and put on a happy face to push through tough times. A healthy plural relationship will see to it that each member of the poly family is lifting each other up when needed. Be mindful of those around you this holiday season to ensure you are encouraging peace and joy.
