How Much Do I Want To Know? From DADT To All the Juicy Details
Listen now
Description
While we all know that open and honest communication is the key to relationships success, a recent University of California study found that there’s plenty of people would rather not know certain details about what their partner is up to! This is one of the big questions that people often struggle with, and are often at odds with, in non-monogamous relationships.  Some prefer the DADT - don’t ask, don’t tell - model where everything is unsaid. It’s a … I’d rather not know because what I don’t know won’t hurt me? However, as we said to a coaching client recently and talk about in this episode, when we avoid hearing from our partners about their experiences completely, our brains “fill in the blanks” and that story is often much worse than knowing the truth. There's others that LOVE to share all the details about their encounters with others and those that want to hear everything, but there's the matter of privacy of others to consider. And some people are ok with some details but want certain things left out.  We cover all these things and more in this exciting episode - How Much Do I Want To Know: From DADT to ALL the Juicy Details!

Sex... we love it, we want it, and, for many, it is part of our "why" behind being consensually non-monogamous in the first place.   Having said that, if we've been intimate, or in a relationship, with someone for a longer period of time, things can sometimes feel a little stale.  At the same...
