    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    Congrats on such a successful show! My recommendation would be make a cute chalkboard sign you can hang with the general pricing tiers and then only put price tags on the odds and ends that don't match the general tiers, and you can have a note on the sign that items with custom pricing have...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    Ah, that makes so much more sense now!! FWIW, I think that if y'all are able to offer up the support that would allow them to go out and build either some work history (her) and get better pay, or even get some training for some sort of trade, that's awesome (though I'm sure that will definitely...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    Soooo, of course not sure how much detail of other's you really want to share here, but what's the driving need for his son and fam to move out of texas so quickly? I absolutely understand not wanting to raise a daughter in a state with some of the anti-women's policies that they have.... but...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    Is there any chance that it's worth reaching out to the courthouse and explaining that due to some urgent health needs, you'd like to request any possibility to have the court date moved up to as early as possible if they happen to have any cancellations or rescheduling? I would imagine that if...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    One other possible thing to consider, is that if the $8K deductible is something that is affordable (also reminder that there is care credit, or hospitals can often work out payment plans) then one thing to consider is just acknowledging that you'll hit your max deductible and then decide that...

    How do you move from an affair to healthy polyamory?

    No contact-ish is NOT no contact. Her husband said that he wanted you out of the picture. Do you have any idea if he is even ok with her continuing to send you updates? The fact that she is likely continuing to break her agreement with him even after all of the mess that she created is just...

    Needing help with a poly marriage

    I HIGHLY suggest that you stop having the "if/when we decide to explore poly again" with your wife. You know it's something she wants, but you also know that it feels very unlikely for you. Giving her that hope that maybe she'll get to be poly again someday means that you're at risk of her...

    Complicated situation

    If you haven't completely cut contact with this person, then you need to. You need to be in your own individual therapy for several major reasons: 1) processing the grief of losing your mother, 2) processing the grief of losing this person you fell in love with, and 3) figuring out whether...

    Captain's Log

    I don't have an article to link, but if his biggest concern is the vax being rushed through, then he should do some research into how the vax was actually developed. COVID research has been going on for quite some time because there are other strains of COVID. The reason a vaccine could be...

    Advice on Poly rules

    I think the safer sex section is worth a WHOLE SEPARATE PAGE. How do you define sex? Some people consider any genitalia touching sex, some only consider PIV/PIA sex. Some people don't actually think of oral sex as sex. Are you aware that many times when people get a standard STD panel that...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    I saw a good write up on this recently that noted that bi-sexial doesn't actually mean attracted to men and women, it means attracted to multiple (two) genders. I think that there are also more than just 2 genders, seeing as there are non-binary folk, and a whole spectrum as some folk don't...

    Long post about hardships in trying to make (first time) non-monogamy work

    oof, you are a saint (or maybe a glutton for punishment is a better choice of words?) for staying with this liar for this long. Honestly, I think he's shown you over and over again that once he reaches a point where he's confident you won't be ok with his choices, rather than set his own...

    Jealousy and Feelings of Intrusion

    I don't think it's at all unreasonable to say "hey Partner, I'm not telling you how to spend your nights with your other partner, or asking you to spend fewer nights with said partner, but it's still very clear to me that you're allowing the choices you make on those nights (staying up super...

    Partner's sex ethics with others

    The fact that you expressed your hurt and concern about all of what went on, and you have only been met with anger is NOT okay. It is yet another layer on top of the already pretty terrible circumstances that Emma committed sexual assault/rape against two people and violated their consent, and...

    Setting An End Date

    I think this really just depends on you and how you feel. if you can actually enjoy the summer then go for it. If you find that you end up spending too much time dwelling on the upcoming end date and it feels more sad than fun, then just rip the band aid off. You can always agree to TRY to...
