I just got into my first poly relationship with two other trans girls and they were a couple before me. Feels perfectly fine and natural so far even if I was fiercely mono before transitioning and they even talk about moving in together without me. I totally get that's not for everyone and I certainly couldn't have handled it in the past.

That said, I have no idea where this is going or if it's a good idea in the long run. Embracing the unknown because I've always rolled like that. Pain is temporary and chicks dig scars kind of a deal. Do chicks dig emotional scars too? How about guys since I'm pan? 😅

To be a bit more serious, I think you probably need to have a pretty strong sense of self worth if poly is going to work for you. Not sure I fit that description precisely, but I feel a lot better about myself than I did before so I'm cautiously optimistic.
