The Beginner’s Manual to Open Relationships: I Can’t Believe It’s Not Monogamy

$19.99

Ready to toss the stale rulebook of monogamy out the window and dive headfirst into a world where love (and lust) aren’t limited to just one person? The Beginner’s Manual to Open Relationships: I Can’t Believe It’s Not Monogamy is your hilariously outrageous, no-BS roadmap to ditching the jealousy-fueled drama and replacing it with honest communication, spicy adventures, and a whole lot of heart (and ass) expansion.

In this laugh-out-loud guide, you’ll learn how to:

  • Break Free from “Will-They-Leave-Me” Fear: We dissect exactly what “open relationship” even means—polyamory, swinging, ENM, the whole buffet of love—so you can pick the flavor that makes your libido (and your heart) tingle.
  • Nail The Big Talk with Your Partner: No more sweaty-palmed “uh-oh they’re going to freak out” moments. Armed with “I” statements, witty reassurance lines, and actual scripts you can use, you’ll stroll into this conversation with the confidence of a lover on a sugar high.
  • Draft Your Own Rule-Filled Love Contract: We break down the nitty-gritty—condoms, calendars, calm-down techniques, “detail-dump” vs. “don’t-ask-don’t-tell,” and everything in between—so you and your boo can customize the relationships that keep you both begging for more.
  • Wage (and Win) the Jealousy Battle: Jealousy is natural—but it doesn’t have to become your new bestie. You’ll get “jealousy-is-an-emotion-not-a-fact” exercises, jealousy-exposure therapy tips, and compersion hacks (that warm fuzzy you feel when your partner’s on cloud nine with someone else).
  • Score Dates Without Losing Your Sanity: From crafting the quirkiest “I’m in an open relationship” dating profile to surviving first-date brain freezes, we guide you through the wild world of finding new connections—without accidentally texting your ex or ghosting your spouse.
  • Keep Your Other Partners from Becoming Your Other Problems: Discordant metamours? Scheduling kerfuffles? Drama-throwing exes? We’ve got your six—peppering in real-life horror stories (and triumphant comebacks) so you know exactly when to set boundaries, call it quits, or bake your partner brownies to soothe the soul.
  • Stay Safe—Physically and Emotionally: Condoms, PrEP/PEP, STI testing tips, and emergency “uh-oh” protocols get demystified. Plus, self-care hacks for when the emotional rollercoaster is more Emotional than Roller. Spoiler: there’s a lube-and-spa-day recommendation.

Whether you’re dipping a toe into the idea of dating others or you’re already swimming in a sea of third-wheels, flings, and cuddle puddles, this book is written in the signature Monogamy Experiment voice: hilarious, edgy, outrageous, and relentlessly relatable. You’ll find zero judgment, buckets of empathy, and just enough raunchy humor to make your mother clutch her pearls (which, let’s be honest, is half the fun).

Perfect for Millennials and Gen Z who are tired of the same old romance sitcom and want to write their own love script, The Beginner’s Manual to Open Relationships: I Can’t Believe It’s Not Monogamy hands you the pen (and the whip) to craft a relationship style entirely your own.

Grab your copy, flip to Chapter 1, and let’s get wild—intentionally, consensually, and with a whole lot of heart. Your new love adventure starts now.
