    Longing, the boy that could have been, and where to go from here

    What a shame. That sounded like a wonderful thing you had. You have my sympathies. If that really is it, likely there will always remain a yearning of sorts because of the good memories. The pain of loss will fade with time though.

    OkCupid and Privacy

    Something you might also want to keep in mind for privacy. Do not use photos that can be found elsewhere on social media or the net in general. If you do that chances are someone can do a reverse image search and find the page the other copy of the photo is.

    How do you understand polyamory?

    This is a great practical definition and one I will use going forward. By that definition I am so very much poly yet few, possibly even none, of my partners has ever been poly themselves, including my current partner. Its been a very common experience of mine to date someone who is really happy...

    Here to learn

    Hi Aliska When you say you're realizing you may be poly but never practiced it, what is the thought process behind that?

    Completely New...and HPV

    And if they overreact, give them some time. If they've never had a partner with HPV before or aren't that knowledgeable about STIs they may freak out until they've had a chance to learn more about it.

    Growing Pains

    So, she didn't get a time to be single between her last marriage and another, serious long-term style relationship with you. Hmmm. That's not ideal in most cases. Can take time to find yourself again after a major relationship breaks up. Could her realization about wanting polyamory be a...

    Poly Statistics

    Its not exactly a large study but I found this:- http://personality-testing.info/research/demographics-of-polyamory/ I think its interesting how uniform the rates of polyamory are at different age groups. I assumed people were naturally more polyamorous when young. Nope. Another thing I would...

    Your most recent OKC messages. post em here!

    So, I reduced the age filter on OKC from >34 to >24 yesterday and woah. Basically, non-monogamous Vancouverites under 30 look like this:- This does not bode well for the districts.

    String of Breakups

    What a bumpy ride. So much so quickly. I hope things go smoother so you have the time and space to let your sad out. Sounds like all things have unfolded like they should. Still hurts though. *loves and hugs*

    What are you listening to now?

    A new feeling - Insecurity

    Edit: I'm sorry if some of the things I wrote in this post seem almost patronizingly obvious. If they do, its because I'm someone who often misses the obvious in lieu of my own neurotic ideas. In short, the way I wrote this post is how I try to talk to myself. :} Yep. Remembering yourself a...

    Re-introducing meself

    Hi nycindie. Yes, I'm still with Taphy. We haven't made much progress on moving beyond anything monogam-ish because we haven't been trying until just recently. For my part the marriage break-up, adjusting to living in a new place with new people, a dramatic change in career and going through a...

    What is the weirdest thing you think is hot?

    This qualifies as weird. :) Met a massage therapist whose technique had a strong intuitive and experimental streak, emphasis on "mental". She gave me a quick massage and it was like being randomly attacked while she made weird noises such as squeaks, grunts and muted operatic outbursts. It was...
