I'm Tiki! Ok so to start if you're all for monogamy and it works for you great but my advice to you is stop reading now and move on to the next girl. I'm /interests?i=polyamorous this means I can love more then one person at a time in fact I can even be in love with multiple people. I've been in a functioning polyamorous relationship before one of the people realized it wasn't the lifestyle that she wanted and in the end we all failed. That however didn't stop me from believing that polyamory is the lifestyle for me. I am married to a wonderful man who I love dearly and he is my /interests?i=primary+partner and will remain to be unless for unseen problems arise. I'm also the loving mother to my precious little boy born March 2009.

Here's a little info I think explains me pretty well: Like someone who can sleep comfortably on either side of the bed, I am equally at home with ideas and beliefs that I have held for a long time and with new ways of thinking and believing that grow out of my intellectual curiosity.

My sense of who I am and what my place is in the world around me rests on values and principles that are the solid ground I walk upon. I've tested them, they work for me, and much of the time I am content to trust them, that is, until some provocative new idea slips in from a conversation, book or some flight of my active imagination. "Hmmmm. What's this. Never thought of it before." And off I go, exploring.

Since I love to learn, I've always been teachable; I absorb new information, which means I am well-educated in things that matter to me. Sometimes my intellectual exploring will lead me back to where I started; the "next new thing" proves too shallow or impractical to me. But once in a while a new idea or belief will dislodge me from the ground I've stood upon; it is so compelling and persuasive that I step away from the tried-and-true and embrace this notion that is brand new to me.

Because I hold both solid beliefs and am open to new ideas, I am accepting of other people and other ways of thinking and believing. I am flexible enough to listen to something new and different, or something outside of my comfort zone; if it works for me, I'll take it in, and if not, I'll let it go. In this sense, I know who I am: I'm neither closed-minded nor wildly open-minded, but walk somewhere near the middle of the intellectual road.
