A polyamorous widow revealed that she married a man 20yrs younger than her and she is also sharing a girlfriend with him.

“We exchanged phone numbers, we went for dinner later that week and knew that we had a special connection.
“I’ll never stop grieving Josh, but it has gotten easier. I know he would’ve loved Gabriel and we would’ve been so happy.
“It was love at first sight. I know Gabriel is my angel sent from above by Josh.”

“I love my husband, but he’s not a woman and we communicate differently
“Me and Gabriel each have our own relationship with Fatima.”
“To me, marriage isn’t about being sexually exclusive, but it’s about building a life together, which is exactly what we are doing.
“Things have to be healthy and vibrant and that’s why we have a shared girlfriend.
“But we are open to dating other people, outside of our relationship.
“I’ve had neighbors call me telling me they’ve seen Gabriel on a date with another woman, and they’re even more shocked when they realize that I know.
“We keep each other updated about everything and there’s nothing we can’t talk about.
“If others think polyamory is strange, then they should start talking to more people.
‘They will discover that there are people who are practicing open relationships more than they might know.”
