About this listen

My first ever date on a dating app led to a series of misunderstandings that sparked a big argument (a very one-sided argument) with my wife about boundaries and communication in our open marriage and dating lifestyle. This led to one of our only rules. The story itself is set in the beautiful surroundings of night-time Vienna, in the final throes of the second Covid lockdown…

In 2024, my wife and I found out I’m not our daughter’s biological father. I tell the story of our open marriage, describing in forensic detail how we ended up in this unusual situation and pausing along the way to explore bigger topics around polyamory: conquering jealousy and relationship fear, balancing rules, trust and freedom, and managing communication with other people.
