Polyamory - how does dating multiple partners work?
Had great fun being interviewed by the TV show - The Project - New Zealand this week. The media loves talking about Polyamory, and its one of my specialties in my Counselling/Coaching practice. However, I'm not a promoter of Polyamory, I just see it as a valid choice for some people... and those people need non-judgemental, experienced counselling as much as anyone else ;-)

According to Frances Amaroux, who specialises in polyamorous and “alternative” relationships, having relations with more than one other person is increasingly popular among heterosexual people.She puts this down to the development of the women’s rights movement, the emergency of female agency and sexual empowerment. In her experience the trend, which has been around for the past ten years, has proven to be complex. The reason for the complexity to quite simple: it’s a numbers game. “Well we can see that it is purely mathematical. When you add more people, the problems you have between each other multiply.” “With two or more intersecting circles and you have a third entity, if you add another person, you end up with seven possible combinations, add emotion, it increases complexity exponentially.” She says that with a typical emotion like jealousy, which commonly happens in a monogamous relationship, when it happens between more than two people who are having sex it can be more intense. (Think of a ven diagram of overlapping circles, Amaroux instructs).re to edit. Read more... |

When Three is not a Crowd
Dr. Angela Lewis and the Australian Counselling Association
I recently came into contact with an Australian relationships counsellor who specialises in kinky and poly relationships. While I was aware of what polyamory was, I had not included it in my recent book so I took some questions on non-monogamous relationships to my (now) extensive friend and acquaintance network in the kinky community. Three men and one woman graciously came forward and offered their insights and experiences on how they experienced polyamory.

The ex-factor: Should you stay friends with your ex?
Womans Day Oct 20, 2011
You shared each other's lives, possibly a house and maybe children. But can you really share friendship with an ex?
We've all got a couple of exes knocking around. How to deal with them can be a dilemma. Impossible as it sounds, some choose friendship. But can a platonic relationship ever replace an intimate, sexual one?
"Yes... and no," says relationship coach Frances Amaroux (www.lovecoaching.com). "It depends on the type of person you are and the type of break-up you had. What you need to do is be honest about why you want to be friends."

The power of One
By Emma Mansfield in LifeStyle
They exist in force as they have in no other generation – now long-term singles are shaping up as the new social force to be reckoned with.
"Maybe we’re just now starting to get it right and what we’re seeing is actually the evolution of intimacy. Women in the past stayed in relationships not just because they feared being alone, but because they didn’t have financial support or marketable work skills – society simply didn’t accept women without husbands,” says Amaroux.

Flirty or dirty? The difference can be in the blink of an eye

Flirty or dirty? The difference can be in the blink of an eye
In a flirt's life, success is measured in seconds. Unfortunately, so is failure.
It all comes down to eye contact or the even more fleeting "eyebrow flash".
The authors of a dauntingly forensic survey of flirting describe eyebrow flash as an upward flex of the eyebrows that takes about a sixth of a second. _Read more...

Workplace disagreements - Sydney morning herald
By Lee Glendinning June 7, 2002
Many office romances end in tears. But huge numbers end up as sexual harassment claims. Lingering glances. The idle touch that lasts a second longer than it should. The button on her shirt probably should be done up but is open. Little is revealed but the suggestion can be enough. Working back late slips into a quick dinner, then drinks, maybe a kiss, the bedroom, some confusion ... and then the office affair. _Read more...

Creative Relating - Free community workshop on conscious relationships
|
Local relationship counsellor Frances Amaroux will be providing the insightful workshop ‘Creative Relating’ at ‘Abundance- A Celebration of Generosity’ in Dorrigo over the weekend March 31st until April 2nd. The whole idea for this festival came about as the eclectic group of organisers were lamenting the fact that our societies are anchored in money-based economies and our sense of security is connected to having “real” money. So what if…
