“don’t open to ENM for a specific person”
Wondering where this “rule” comes from? It seems like on this subreddit in particular it’s canon.
Without going into too much backstory, my husband and I are exploring ENM with the help of a well-respected therapist who specializes in it. For one of us, there is a specific person that has brought us to the ENM discussion.
This therapist has not indicated once that there is a taboo on this person because we hadn’t been practicing ENM before they entered the picture.
I also haven’t heard it listening to podcasts or reading about ENM.
Where did it come from and why is it such a hard line with this group? Is there anyone here who doesn’t agree with it?
