If poly makes us more inclined to take on emotional challenges, (including telling others what we need) that will be a nice side-effect. Which I suspect occurs rather frequently:-) Whatever the reason for doing it, most of us will surely benefit from working with Brian Frederick’s principles (or similar).

I can't say enough about how much more clearly I am able to communicate my wants/needs/desires since being in a poly relationship. I've been into kink for some time, and it's always been easy to tell someone what I need sexually, but I've never done well with telling people what I need emotionally. Poly has definitely helped me with that over the past two years. I whole-heartedly agree that with poly comes self-improvement.
