Poly Geek Relationship Disclosure Form

version 1.03 Form PGRDF/1.03, for people met recently at parties in whom a more-than-just-friendly interest has been mutually discovered and disclosed.

Purpose: Form PGRDF/1.03 is intended to disclose important relationship information in a humorous way, getting things out into the open where they can be discussed without the longer period of awkwardness associated with the early phases of Relationship Guessing Game RGG/inf. RGG/inf. has been proven to be non-terminating in some cases.

Disclaimer: PGRDF/1.03 is not a replacement for RGG/inf. It will still be necessary to complete RGG/inf in most cases. PGRDF/1.03 is intended as a supplementary disclosure form only, and will usually only enable skipping to a later and less awkward section of RGG/inf.

Notice: Usage of this form is largely restricted to poly geeks. Most of the issues dealt with herein relate to poly relationships, and most non-geeks experience difficulty filling it in honestly due to insufficient dread of RGG/inf. Attempts at use by non-poly people will be largely irrelevant; attempts at use by non-geeks, for best results, should be monitored by a geek who knows the filer well.
