Jade Gate Studio in Portland, OR is hosting a Year of the White Tiger erotic art show and after party, 6:00 p.m.-2:00 a.m., Saturday, Feb. 13th, FetLife event announcement
Topic: How do you choose a poly partner?
Joreth, Pepper, Franklin and Minx discuss the two aspects of this question: how do you find, meet and get to know partners, and how do you vet them? Joe, Brendan, Polina and Jessica commented via Facebook that they simply run into people in everyday life, often when they are not looking, and get to know people that they like and who treat them well.
Jeff asks for feedback via Facebook on a situation in which he made first physical contact (holding hands) with a new partner in his current partner’s presence, which led to a fight.

- Introduce yourself on the mailing list.
- accept being nervous
- introduce yourself to the host and let them know you have never been
- be prepared to answer why you are there
- set yourself a goal to talk to 5 people
- if you don’t like who you are talking to, talk to somebody else
- if single guy, try not to look predatory. Make out with a guy! Or maybe volunteer
- if single girl, it is ok to say no.
- if couple, work at trying to not “gang up” on people. talk to people seperately sometimes
