Lisa, 60, and Everett, 63, have been together for 36 years. In 2021, they discovered that the secret to a successful relationship may be… dating others. The couple say that since they started experimenting with polyamory, they have become emotionally closer than ever.

Lisa and Everett met through mutual friends in 1986 and got engaged after just two months, getting married in 1987. Despite 23 years of a monogamous relationship, in February 2010, Everett admitted to spending the night with one of their mutual friends. This confession became a turning point, prompting them to explore other options in marriage.

Although the couple considered swinging, i.e. cohabitation with other couples, agreed that it would be a “step too far” because both of them wanted to build “real relationships”. Instead of this, they started practicing polyamory five years ago. Lisa, emphasizes that their marriage is not for everyone, but it works perfectly for them.

In October 2019, Everett began a relationship with another woman, and Lisa began a similar relationship three months later. Lisa is currently in a relationship with three people and Everett is with five.
