About Ethical Non-Monogamy

Ethical non-monogamy (ENM) is a pattern of intimate and/or emotional bonding between people that allows one person to have relationships with more than one partner. A key feature of ethical non-monogamous relationships is that their participants are completely open to each other about being intimately connected to other people as well. Polyamory is a specific subspecies of ethical non-monogamy. Polyamory is characterised by all the features of ENM, as well as the fact that the people in the relationship have romantic feelings for each other.

 

About the author

My name is Sonya, I was born in 1984 in Bulgaria and I live here. I have been working in IT since 2005. My personal interests mainly involve relationships between people – partners in ethical non-monogamous relationships, people in monogamous relationships, parent-child relationships, communication and relationships between parties in conflict, etc. I am interested in non-violent communication and in the principles of attachment parenting. I am a certified mediator, with interests mainly in family and team mediation. I am excited about fiction, music and contemporary poetry, and as of recently – in visual arts.
