Um and relationship anarchy uh comes from the premise that no relationship is prescriptive.
Um we uh relationship anarchists decide that every relationship is is on its own merits.
So there's no idea that um
A relationship has to be more important because you're sleeping with them or because you love them uh romantically.
Uh a friendship can be just as important and so
In each relationship that I'm in, whether that be a friendship, a lover, a partner, a something, um, we decide what each other means to each other and that's if it's working for us, great, and if it's not, what needs to change?
And so, um, you know, whatever terms that we use to describe the way they were we're relating.
is less important um to the outside world and more just what it what works for us.
So, you know, I I have a partner right now and when we decided to call each other partner, we discussed what does partner mean to you and so, you know, that for us that word
describes a sense of longevity and we we're working towards the same goals.
But I also have a something where it's really nebulous.
Sometimes we sleep together, sometimes we don't.
Like you know, I love them very dearly.
Um but they are no less important to me as a as a relationship than uh than my partner.
You know, like they are they are a different type of relating, but that's not uh a h there's no hierarchy there.
Yeah.
A as I said, you know, figuring out what jealousy is, what the root of the jealousy is, what's causing it.
Um
I i is it insecurity, is it fear of missing out?
Is it inadequacy?
