My nesting partner and I do not have a sexual relationship anymore, and that's totally fine. We're still in love and enjoy spending lots of time together. Polyamory is not about sex. I have other sexual partners sometimes, and that's fine. My NP also has a girlfriend who she doesn't have sex with either, and they get along like gangbusters.

Exactly! Sex is completely unrelated to the process as a whole.

It's gross how often people think that being in love is just to have someone to fuck.

For a lot of people partnerships, cohabitation, and sex are ALL conflated into one big, messy thing. For a lot of men there’s an amount of ownership in there too.
