The Game Changer: A Memoir of Disruptive Love by Franklin Veaux

4.0

The author, Franklin Veaux, is the grandfather of modern polyamory in my opinion. His memoir highlighted all his struggles with navigating non monogamous relationships when there was no such thing. He made errors that I'm grateful for, sad to say. Those errors made it a lesson on how to treat your partners ethically and with compassion along with not losing who you were ultimately.
His wife Celeste, was a classic example of someone who had a lot of insecurities about herself. Later on in the book it pointed out that she never considered herself polyamorous but monogamous while having sexual relationships with men that she never loved.
Sadly, I know someone who deals with this. While I read it I grew angrier and angrier because this scenario is what someone I care about is experiencing.
I really would like to one day speak to Mr Veaux and thank him for his contributions.
