Queering Compersion with @lifewflo and @polyamoryinpractice
Episode description
Compersion, the feeling of joy/happiness at seeing your partner with other people, is often touted as the Holy Grail of polyamory: a milestone you reach once you have achieved complete security within yourself, fully embracing the abundance mindset, and having a complete lack of jealousy. In reality, it's a lot more complicated than that. In this episode, Flo (@lifewflo), Alexa (@polyamoryinpractice) and I discuss:
- deconstructing the binary of compersion/jealousy
- queering the timeline from high jealousy to high compersion on one's polyamorous journey
- our different experiences of compersion and how it is a mixed bag of feelings rather than a sensation of pure joy
- how to navigate different experiences of compersion and jealousy with partners and metamours
and much more.
