Hello everyone! I'm a traveller who's been in a polyam bubble for a long time, but hasn't really read any of the literature yet. Is anybody aware of a good resource to "borrow" polyam e-books, or somebody who might be willing to share e-books they've bought with people who move around a lot? The...
I'm not sure exactly what the dilemma is, to tell the truth. Going along to the sex club together was a fairly spontaneous decision - I said I was going and they decided to come along too. The impression I got was just that seeing me with other people at the sex club was a little too 'close for...
This gives me hope (and the one or two blog posts I read gave me life :D). I definitely have a habit of painting relationships in a 'black or white' light - i.e if ONE bad thing happens, that's the end of that. It's nice to be reminded that mistakes will be made and it's an ongoing process...

Poly partner here, this was amazing insight for me into how my mono partner might be feeling, and how I can support them. Thank you so so much!
Hi all. I'm new here, but I would really appreciate advice from some poly/mono gurus!
Background
In the past few months, my relationship with my partner has reached a much deeper level. Right from the beginning, I was open about poly (I have two other open relationships) and also VERY clear...
Hi :) Call me Crimson, I've been poly for a couple of years now, but recently the relationships have started to get much more serious. Here for some pro tips from the polyverse on long term non-monogamy if that makes sense ^^
