What do we do with the grief of what might have been?
Coming out or embracing your identity later in life can bring unexpected grief for the experiences you missed. But acknowledging that grief doesn’t mean rejecting the life you have now.
Sometimes, healing begins by honoring what was lost while making room for what’s still possible.

How do you connect with your identity within a monogamous relationship? What are some things that you have found that really make you feel connected to that part of yourself? What makes you feel seen?
The thing I hear most from others, and the thing I was looking for most when we began this journey, was "We want to hear REAL stories." I wanted to see others who had moved beyond the early scary days. I wanted to hear stories of how people made it work and what worked for them.
That is why we created our blog series, MOR Stories. We are always looking for stories about mixed-orientation relationships to share. Did you remain monogamous? Did you open your relationship? How long did it take you to get to a positive place? You don't have to have it all figured out. We aren't looking for perfection, just looking for real and honest. Would you like to share yours?
Check out our blog to see a few examples of what we are looking for. This can be completely anonymous if you like; we can assign you pseudonyms.
Let us know if you are interested. 🧡
My husband and I spoke at the B+ Wellness Conference this past weekend, organized by the LA Bi Task Force. It was so amazing and just the best feeling being in a conference full of Bi+ people and allies! It got me wondering about things like the LA Bi Task Force that we have here in Los Angeles. I know Ambi has many chapters all over, but other than that, do you have anything like that in your community? Anything you know of nearby? I would love to list these kinds of resources on our website MORandmore.org, for others to be able to find things like this near them so they can find community.
