ENM Mailbag: Lifestyle Burnout, Jealousy & Pool Party Game

It's a mailbag episode! Adam & Pris skip the guest and dig straight into the inbox for two listener questions that could not be more different — one heavy, one fun, and both real talk about ethical non-monogamy (ENM) and the swinger lifestyle.

• A 20+ year married couple, 3-5 years into the lifestyle, hits a wall: he's thriving in non-monogamy, she's over it. Adam & Pris break down jealousy, trust, communication, and how to figure out what's actually fair for both partners.
• A newbie couple at their third lifestyle pool party watches his wife get swarmed while he freezes up. The question: what are the signals men miss, and how should a guy actually approach a woman (or couple) at a swinger party without being "that guy"?
• Real talk on setting boundaries, reading the room, non-monogamy jealousy, and open relationship communication tools you can use tonight.
