    Does that mean that you do love him? I thought it was transactional. Or am I misunderstanding the meaning of transactional. What is being transacted?

      He takes care of me financially and I take care of him emotionally, sexually, physically, etc. Depends on how you define love. I care about him and we’re close, but I don’t feel “in love” with him if that makes sense. It’s transactional but with feelings developed over time I guess.

        Interesting. The reason I ask about polyamory is because I interpreted it as “you get these things except love, I get money, but I can go find love elsewhere”.

        Are you in danger of ICE?

          He fulfills my emotional and sexual needs, so I don’t feel the need to look elsewhere. I don’t feel in danger, but can you really even know these days?
