One day I asked what someone’s relationship status was, and they said “I have a girlfriend but she’s been missing and is presumed dead, so I don’t know if getting another GF would be cheating”. It’s at that moment when I realized how complicated relationship statuses can get. Like that Seinfeld episode where the guy is in a coma so he lends his girlfriend to another guy.

    Mine.

    I’m polyamorous and currently live with three of my boyfriends. I’m also a partner to a married couple that lives halfway across the country.

    Neither group likes the other.

    I’m also casually involved with two people I met online (but never in person) and an old high school / college fling that passes through town every few months on the way to visit his family.

    Things are especially complicated because I’m 19 months into hormone therapy as an enby, which some of my partners are ecstatic about for me while one disapproves because he’s not “into” trans people.

    Note: this is also just a surface detail. There’s personal stuff about more than one of my partners that amplifies the complicatedness, but those aren’t my stories to tell.
