Who are these open relationship cards for?

These cards are for everyone who wants to get crystal clear on what works for them in a relationship. Whether you’re single and want to know what to look for when you start dating, or you already have a relationship (or multiple) – the questions in this deck will help you think about all the important stuff that makes relationships work. And of course, you can also discuss the questions on a date or with your partner! This bundle combines both our regular Relationship Cards and our cards for Polyamory.

How long until I can use these cards?

The Vision Cards For Your Relationship and the Polyamory Conversation Cards are physical products we’ll ship to your home address (or any other address you provide). The digital editions are pdfs you can print yourself or use on for a computer or mobile device. You get access to the digital files as soon as the order is completed. For most payment methods (such as creditcard or Apple Pay), this is right after you make the payment.

Can I use these open relationship cards if I’m monogamous?

You can use the Vision Cards for Your Relationship regardless of your gender, sexual orientation, or relationship dynamic. The Polyamory Conversation Cards deal with the specific challenges of polyamorous (and other non-monogamous) relationships.

I’m monogamish/in an open relationship/practicing some other form of consensual non-monogamy. Can I still use the Polyamory Conversation Cards?

You can! Although some questions won’t be relevant to your specific dynamic, you can use these cards with any non-monogamy dynamic.

Me and my partner are looking for a third person to join our relationship. Are these cards right for us?

The Polyamory Conversation Cards will help you both in your conversations together and in conversations with any potential third who’d consider joining the dynamic. We also have a blog specifically for couples looking to add a third person to their relationship. We highly recommend reading it!

Can I use the Polyamory Conversation cards if I only have one relationship at the moment?

Absolutely! The amount of partners you have at the moment doesn’t matter. In fact, these questions are a great starting point if you’re considering opening up an existing relationship. You could use them with your existing partner, as well as any new partners.

Can I use the Polyamory Conversation cards if I don’t have a relationship at the moment?

Yes! Although they are originally intended as conversation cards, the questions are also great to help you figure out what you’re looking for in your relationships. When you understand the things that make you happy, as well as the things that don’t work for you, it’s easier to figure out who could be a compatible partner when you’re dating.

How do I use this open relationships cards bundle?

Our vision cards are aimed at looking inside, first. We’ve compiled a few practices, both when you’re by yourself and with others. Check them out here! The conversation cards can be used much in the same way, and are even better suited for using together with your partner(s) (or even entire polycule).

How do I print the digital cards?

Once your order is completed, you’ll receive a link to download the digital cards. You’ll also receive a link to the instructions for printing (a ‘Read me’ file).

Why are the backside and box not included in the digital files?

In our experience, most people either use the cards on their phone or try to keep the printing simple. However, if you’d like to go all the way and print the corresponding backsides and box, shoot us a message and we’ll make it happen!

Are you offering these cards in other languages?

At the moment, we’re only offering the Relationship cards in English and Dutch. The Polyamory Conversation Cards paper copy is only available in English, but the digital edition is also available in French. We’re happy to add more languages for the digital editions. Drop us a line if you have a particular request! The French edition is not included in this bundle. However, if you’d prefer the French edition over the English one, let us know and we’ll make sure you get it!

What other products could help me shape my ideal relationship?

One thing we hear a lot is that people love our cards, but don’t use them as often as they would like. That’s why we created the Connection Compass, a quick tool to help you build a habit of checking in with your partner. This is a great addition to the cards! Additionally, you may want to check out our Boundary Launchpad or even our signature course, Boundary Breakthrough.

Who made these cards?

All questions are developed by Marianna Zelichenko, the founder of Odder Being. Most card decks are illustrated by different artists. The polyamory conversation cards are illustrated by Jenny Kroese and the Polyamory Conversation Cards are illustrated by @the.artful.iriz.
