This research aims to understand how polyamory institutes itself as an affective project in the lives of non-monogamous homosexual couples, as well as in what way the search for a new love is put into practice by these subjects. Considering the internet as one of the fundamental elements that would bring popularization and visibility over this discussion in Brazil, I intend to understand part of the emergencies produced by the expansion of non-monogamous groups in digital spaces, especially on Facebook, where such projects are materialized through public posts. Based on the concepts of “narrative identity”, “social/individual project” and “life stories”, the intention is to know the biographical and marital path taken by these subjects, so that we can understand the gestures that weave their polyaffective projects. Thus, I will focus on this phenomenon from its narrative dimension, taking a deeper interest in the process of elaborating these experiences itself. Through interviews I will discuss, mainly, how such textualities are produced, the expectations about the poliamorous relationships, the meanings attributed to polyamory, monogamy and non-monogamy, the agreements and negotiations involved in these searches, and the modulation of the different social markers in these projects.
