Polyamory
Ten years later – any wiser?
Read more: Ten years later – any wiser?I was sitting on my brothers couch in Skarpnäck, Stockholm with him and his wife. As it often does, the polyamoury conversation came up.

As far as I am concerned this is the end of your marriage!
Read more: As far as I am concerned this is the end of your marriage!It would be quite a rude thing to say in any situation but this came from somebody who is really close to the family.

Relationship as a spiritual discipline
Read more: Relationship as a spiritual disciplineThere are many that would balk at the notion of spiritual discipline as discipline in itself has almost become a bad word in todays society.

I don’t understand what you are doing….
Read more: I don’t understand what you are doing….We are just shy of two months out of the closet.

The sacred paths of relationships
Read more: The sacred paths of relationshipsThere are so many paths one can take in life and everyone must choose their own path. There are career paths, spiritual paths and relationship paths.

What do we teach the children?
Read more: What do we teach the children?Being poly is no picnic as there are no written scripts or handbooks in how to actually live it (sure there are some good books out there, but they all state the same thing, we make it up as we go along). But one of our trickiest dilemmas have been: what do we teach the…
True love
Read more: True loveDisney has time and time again claimed that there is no higher power than this, that true love’s kiss is the most potent magic of all. This does of course come with the caveat that you can only have one true love and that comes with the constant fear that you may or may not…
The naked truth
Read more: The naked truthAnother week has past since I posted “Our sacred journey” and there have been countless of private messages and questions, ranging from: “How dare you?” to “Congratulations, now tell me how I can get there.” Although in every conversation there is this dancing around the question: But are you having sex with others, outside of…

It’s not about sex
Read more: It’s not about sexIn the past week I have been in countless conversations about mine and Hanna’s chosen path.

Read more: Coming out …Yesterday was a bit of a coming out process for me. The minute after I hit the publish key on my blog post was filled with a sense of immense release and freedom followed by “Oh my god, what have I done?”. For a moment I thought maybe not so many people would read it…
Our sacred journey
Read more: Our sacred journeySo if you have been reading my blog for a while you know that over the last couple of years I have deconstructed my faith and the Christian tradition me and Hanna have belonged to.
