Is there a glossary of terms like “metamour” or other words like “partner” that can help explain the different dynamics that appear in poly relationships? My gf and I are struggling to communicate effectively about bringing other people into our tangle because of lack of language for types of relationships.

Many of the pages listed on my Poly Resources page have glossaries, and here are a few specific ones:

• Poly Living Glossary
• Loving More Glossary
• More Than Two Glossary
  
• Poly MatchMaker Glossary
• Multiamory Glossary
• Polyamory Society Language Page
