De-coupling is the transition from a partnership - usually romantic/intimate - to another dynamic. In polyamorous relationships, break-ups often include a period of transition; from lovers to friends, from metamours to acquittances, or even to strangers.
In this live event - three polyamorous sexuality and relationship educators joined a global conversation about how to navigate de-coupling in healthy, productive and supported ways. Facilitated by Claire Louise Travers on behalf of Poly Pages - an academic non-monogamous platform - this event was a facilitated discussion around the causes of polyamorous breakups, the unique challenges de-coupling presents for polyam folx, and some skills and scripts for individuals and communities to make decoupling easier/less harmful.
