I especially admire that you give this young woman credit for the *possibility* that polyamory/an open marriage is something she COULD handle and enjoy if she and her partner develop the right skills of communication and negotiation - that people do it, happily and healthily, all the time, and that it's even an understandable thing to look to for sexual fulfillment when you've married young. These young people who write to you with non-normative sexual issues (bisexuality, poly, kink, etc.) are even more stunningly lucky than the mass of teenagers you help. Just wanted to give you a cheer for an awesome answer and for the work you do... :) wow, I know your answer must have been so taxing to write but I just have to say I really love it!
