If you’ve been, comment your best tips, hidden gems, or must-avoid mistakes 🙏🏽Family Meeting Time 🧠💔One listener is in a long-distance relationship that began as polyamorous but turned exclusive, or so they thought. After a betrayal involving an ex from the original poly dynamic, they're wondering:“Am I wrong for asking my partner to cut off contact with her ex if we’re going to make this work?”We break it all down:What polyamory actually means (and how it differs from open relationships)Why emotional and physical boundaries still matter after shifting to monogamyWhat to do when trust is broken and accountability is missingThe hard truth: Love isn't enough without respect, clarity, and shared valuesPlus, we highlight a past podcast gem: “The Contract to My Polyamory” ft. Jerrie Johnson — a powerful conversation on redefining relationship structures and setting intentional agreements. (Go queue it up after this!)And if you're curious about how real-life poly families make it work, we’re also talking about the show Polyfamily on HBO Max, messy, beautiful, and so worth discussing.FOLLOW LES CHAT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Ask us anonymous questions or share stories here!IG: https://www.instagram.com/les.chatpodcast/  TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@les.chatpodcast?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@leschatpodcast/ Link tree: https://linktr.ee/leschat Gender Neutral Boxers: Get 10% off with our code: LES10 https://www.luckyskivvies.com/NEWJOJO’S TWITCH ACCOUNT:https://www.twitch.tv/jojosvibe DAYRA’S TWITCH ACCOUNT: https://www.twitch.tv/deardayra

We dive into our weekend celebration for Lilly's birthday (who's been on the podcast twice!) We then quickly chat about the encounter at Boston’s Liberty Hotel where a cisgender woman was asked to prove her gender in a bathroom, shedding light on the ongoing challenges of gender identity and public perception. We also dive into the evolving concept of lavender marriages which was once used to hide LGBTQ+ identities and now transforming into modern mixed-orientation relationships. From Hollywood cover-ups to genuine soul connections like Samantha and Jacob’s, we explore why more people are embracing unconventional partnerships, the shifting meaning of gender in relationships, and how love is being redefined beyond labels.& YES, WE ARE STILL GOING TO BALI & THAILAND!!

We're catching you up on everything going on the past few weeks, life, drama, healing, and a little oversharing (as usual). We then dive into some truly unhinged lesbian stories that will leave you gasping, laughing, and possibly texting your ex (don’t do it). Let’s get unhinged.Family Meeting"My wife asked for a divorce after 10 years together, saying we're no longer compatible and that life feels overwhelming. Now she says we can 'date' after selling the house and moving out."FOLLOW LES CHAT ON SOCIAL MEDIA: IG: https://www.instagram.com/les.chatpodcast/  TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@les.chatpodcast?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@leschatpodcast/ Link tree: https://linktr.ee/leschat Gender Neutral Boxers: Get 10% off with our code: LES10 https://www.luckyskivvies.com/BALI/THAILAND TRIP: https://linktr.ee/leschat
