This study aimed to expand upon previous research by focusing on the attachment styles of gay and bisexual males in consensual non-monogamous relationships (CNMs) with one of the four attachment styles. The research questions of this study focused on the relationships between attachment style and CNM relationship styles, relationship satisfaction and CNM relationship styles, and attachment style and relationship satisfaction. The only hypothesis for this study was that there would be a relationship between attachment style and relationship satisfaction among gay and bisexual men who participate in CNM relationships in that htose with secure attachment styles would report higher levels of relationship satisfaction than those with anxious, avoidant, or fearful attachment styles, with no difference in relationship satisfaction between CNM relationship styles. Participants were located through social media and dating applications. Each participant completed a demographic survey, the Experiences in Close Relationship-Revised Scale (ECR-R), and the Dyadic Adjustment Scale (DAS) to assess their attachment style and relationship satisfaction. Most of the participants identified as gay men with advanced degrees participating in open relationships. So many similar participants make it difficult to generalize the results to the broad gay and bisexual population in the United States. The results showed that those with secure attachment styles reported experiencing average to above-average relationship satisfaction regardless of their CNM relationship style. Individuals with anxious attachment styles experienced significantly lower levels of relationship satisfaction, irrespective of their CNM relationship style. These results suggest that it is not the CNM relationship style that significantly impacts relationship satisfaction; it is an individual's attachment style that affects relationship satisfaction. Implications of these results for theory, research, and practice are discussed.
