    Certainly! Our pleasure. You seem like good people. :) We have a poly blog over at www.theordinaryextraordinary.com -- and you can always contact us there, or here. It's always good to meet other mindful poly people. :) Cheers, Alan & Anna

    Hello from New Hampshire

    Welcome welcome! We're planning an eventual move to western Mass and it's good to hear about mindful poly people like you in the neighborhood. :) There are a couple of warmhearted poly groups in New England and it sounds like you'd hit it off with the members of those. Again: welcome...

    Hello Hello!!

    Welcome! And you have our condolences as well on the loss of your husband. We've been together 17 years and can't imagine the immensity of the loss of such a partner. And we hope the past seven years have given you solace and healing. Your comments about communication: perfect, wonderful...

    Introducing ourselves anew: Hi!

    They're definitely poly-friendly. Just not as full of poly people as some might think. :) And San Diego is very conservative/Republican.....so that's not great.

    Introducing ourselves anew: Hi!

    Cheers, sir! Also wondering . . . are there many southern California people here on the site? (Feel free to say howdy!) We know some poly people are kicking around SoCal -- and some are active in poly activism -- but they mostly don't seem to be here. And, truth be told, SoCal has fewer poly...

    I guested on a big podcast & some of the chat was on polyamory

    Last year the hosts of the Professor Blastoff podcast put out a call for topic and guest suggestions. Alan was listening and he realized that the show had never done anything on missing limbs, etc.—so maybe they’d like Anna as a guest. So we wrote up an email: about Anna’s body and her use of...

    Introducing ourselves anew: Hi!

    Thanks, Kevin! As for the Berkshires/western Mass ... it seems like there would be a thriving poly community there. Liberal, guileless, thoughtful people -- and lots of liberal arts colleges nearby. We hope that there is....and need to investigate that a bit more. And thanks for the lovely...

    Introducing ourselves anew: Hi!

    Hi nycindie! We don't recall that when we joined -- 4 years ago -- the guideline on having separate usernames for separate individuals was there. Our apologies if it was. As with our blog, we truly do write together. Alan will be doing the majority of the typing, it's true, but as with our...

    Introducing ourselves anew: Hi!

    Cheers, Kevin! We wanted to get more involved here -- and in other polyamory ways, in real life and online -- to do our part in getting polyamory more seen and understood by more people and help it gain simple acceptance. We want to share our experience but more importantly to help others and...

    Introducing ourselves anew: Hi!

    We're Alan and Anna. Together 17 years, polyamorous for 14. We have closed FMF triads -- polyfidelity. Alan's straight, Anna's bi. We're in our late 30s. We live in Costa Mesa, in southern California. And we plan on one day relocating to New England, probably western Massachusetts. We've...

    A wee bit of public outreach on Reddit

    First, sorry for the PLN misunderstanding. We posted the notice here and at the PLN -- and the post should have read "here or at the PLN . . ." Sorry for that. RfromRMC -- thanks for the lovely words. And for clarifying things about our relationship status for the others. Cheers to you --...
