In this episode of The Open Bedroom Podcast, I interview Alley, the first “third” (a person joining a couple) featured on the show. Alley shares her candid experiences as a third in a polyamorous triad, discussing communication challenges, emotional complexities, and the importance of clear boundaries and self-awareness.
Our conversation explores misconceptions about thirds, the need for honest dialogue, and the realities of navigating love, jealousy, and logistics in ethical non-monogamy. Both Alley and I emphasize treating all partners as equals and highlight the ongoing growth required in open relationships.
