🐾Mei is my my adjoined soul twin and we’ve basically been together for as long as I can remember, even if we didn’t acknowledge our relationship as romantic at the time. But we are pretty open about that now and are happy doing so. Im not as close on an interpersonal basis to others in my system, but I do love our dragon little Noel to bits and Mei has a polycule going on, with deep connections with everyone and past life relations. She’s much better at forming deep connections than I am haha, both in system and out of it.
Curious if any other systems here have insys relationships, romantically or otherwise.
We tend to view the word relationship very literally. We would count being sysmates as a type of relationship. That being said, there are sexual, queerplatonic, and (maybe) pseudoromantic relationships in system. I think we all might be aromantic (specifically quoiromantic) but since some of us are introjects, “romance” might get carried over from source. Which doesn’t usually mean anything to us but yeah.
Relationships tend not to be very strict or defined. We kinda naturally form groups and alliances and sometimes multiple sysmates will decide on some sort of official arrangement. Sexual relationships tend to ebb and flow. Friendships are common and tend to last. Familial arrangements aren’t as common and also tend to last. Since we can ignore society and do our own thing I guess we have unusual relationship dynamics (god/patron, different relationships with the same person from multiple timelines, role reversal due to age sliding, etc). I’m trying to define them using common terms but often relationships are a mix of a lot of things and there’s stuff that might be beyond words.
