Whenever we date someone, we ideally want to get along with their family too. After all, they’re a big part of our partner’s life, and while it’s not a requirement, it definitely makes things easier.

For one woman, everything seemed to be going smoothly. She’d been with her boyfriend for two years and, by all accounts, had a good relationship with his mom as well. But that changed when the mom accidentally found out that the woman’s parents are polyamorous. She was caught off guard by it and clearly not happy.

Now, the young woman is terrified that his mom’s reaction is about to turn her relationship upside down. Read the full story below.

    Sadly people who are 21 can rarely stand up for themselves. So this relationship has low chances of surviving, unless mil accepts the situation after the first shock.

    I don't understand what the mom's issue could be with the parents, it's not like this would affect the relationship of the children in any way. But if my bf pulled away because of this and good riddance. It's not like she did something wrong.
