What does it really mean to explore alternative relationships in a healthy way? How do we know if our needs are being met, if boundaries are respected, and if the dynamics we’re engaging in are truly safe for our emotional and psychological well-being? As relationship diversity becomes more widely recognised, many people are curious, but often misunderstand what it takes to make these structures work without harm. That’s why this is the perfect opportunity to join a thoughtful and open conversation, guided by Karli, head psychological counsellor at Community Centre Shanghai, who brings years of experience working with couples navigating these exact questions. In this discussion, Karli will unpack the myths and realities of alternative relationships, explore the deeper psychological impact beyond the rational “rules,” and share approaches from couples therapy that ensure stronger boundaries, mutual respect, and true connection. With her patient, professional, and insightful guidance, you’ll gain a clearer understanding of what relationship diversity really requires, self-awareness, self-esteem, and intentional communication. Whether you’re curious, questioning, or already exploring these paths, you’ll find a judgment-free space to ask questions, reflect, and engage in an intelligent, inclusive dialogue about the ways people can connect, grow, and love differently yet safely. 现在大家越来越多地在讨论开放式关系、非一对一关系、多元关系结构等等，那到底要怎么探索这些“非主流关系”才是健康的？我们怎么知道自己的需求有没有被满足？界限有没有被尊重？这些关系到底是不是对我们的心理和情绪安全的？虽然好奇的人很多，但其实不少人对这些关系的理解是模糊甚至误解的。 Karli 是 Community Centre Shanghai 的首席心理咨询师，她有多年的咨询经验，专门帮助情侣处理这类关系中的各种疑问。这次她会带我们深入了解非主流关系背后的心理机制，不只是讲讲“规则”，而是从心理层面聊聊：什么是真正的尊重？怎么建立清晰的边界？关系里的连接感从哪里来？她也会分享一些来自伴侣治疗的实用方法，帮助我们在探索中保持自我意识、自尊感和沟通能力。 无论你是已经在尝试，还是正在思考，甚至只是纯粹好奇，这里都是一个没有评判的空间。欢迎你加入，带着你的问题和想法，我们一起聊聊人和人之间可以有哪些不一样但同样安全、有爱的连接方式。
