never can tell. Just actually got BOOTED from another forum because we HAD multiple accounts for the household. I'll have them create their own account

So far we've really been enjoying oregon. The male half grew up here but this is my first experience with oregon and its beautiful beyond words, and so many of the people are extremely open minded and accepting so far

Monmouth is perhaps 14 miles southwest of Salem (the male partner works in salem) This triad is SO much different than anyone we've dated and I think the big factor in that is we weren't actively looking for someone, it just happened, and we *ALL just clicked.

starting a poly relationship is like starting any other, only when you are out flirting and dating there are two of you instead of just a single person. It DOES require something that is important above ALL else... COMMUNICATION. We can't say that enough its SO important to everyone involved...

Thats exactly how we met our current partner. She started out by dating the male half, but even though she identified as "straight" she and the female partner started having feelings for each other and its developed into a love which is shared by all of us now.

Best advice we can give is to hang out where you normally do. When we first met our life partner Amanda she was just looking for a friend, but it quickly turned serious between the male half and now its serious for Amanda and the female half as well. What worked for us is to stop really...

For the longest time when me and my partner Cassie started out we were what most people call "Unicorn hunters" and from experience it is JUST that. Hunting something that doesn't necessarily exist. Instead, we learned to focus on the relationships that came our way. Some of them liked us...

This is REALLY good advice. Me and my partner up until now really have never had to deal with the transition from mono to poly as we both really had those feelings when we met each other. It was instantly comfortable and she was ok with me having relationships outside our partnership. When we...

Hello everyone from the small town of Monmouth, Oregon! Both me and my partner have been poly for the 14 years that we have been together, but only after our first year together did we learn that there was a name for how we felt about relationships, and that there were more people who felt the...
