Describe a man who has positively impacted your life.

View all responses

The men who have had the greatest impact on my life have often been those who taught me valuable lessons—sometimes through their alarming behaviors. While these experiences weren’t positive at the time, they have fostered meaningful self-reflection. They’ve shaped how I approach relationships, sharpened my ability to recognize red flags, and heightened my awareness of potential safety concerns.

As a polyamorous woman who dates men, this awareness has become an invaluable tool. Each experience, whether good or bad, has contributed to a stronger, more self-assured version of myself.
