I live further south than you... I've got some serious Bible Belt going on. I'm still suspicious that I got fired from one job for saying I was agnostic/atheist. The day after that came up, I was asked not to come back. Anyway, I know my FAMILY is fairly conservative.

As for why I haven't introduced D to my family...it's complicated. I live in a rather conservative area of the Midwest (ie. when someone found out I didn't go to church, I got a "I'll pray for you"), and I currently live WITH my parents. Also, my parents had never met D before and I suppose it...

Hi, I'm M.... And I would like advice as well. I do not want D (PolyCouple2013) to feel like a secondary. I want things to work with us and I've been trying to think of ways to help the situation... I love D so much...and I don't want to lose him. But I also love C. Please...help? As for...

Firstly: thank you to everyone who took the time to reply (also, I'm sorry if I came off as unthinking, or some such - it was extremely late when I wrote the first posts here). I realize now I might've gotten a bit too defensive when really it was my fault for perhaps not explaining better, or...

No, I get that. Sorry, poor word choice... I wouldn't be moving JUST for them. I'm currently stuck living in my parents' house, in a town that doesn't have a lot of jobs (college town with several colleges). So I would be in a much better place, with or without them.

Fair enough. I'm planning to move, I just can't do so yet, and they have put in an application for a job in my town. So it's going to be a temporary thing. And really, they say that I can - if it happens, it's fine - but I dunno. I'm a faithful kinda person. Oh, crap - I forgot to mention...

Not exactly - it'll be enough for me, I'm just wondering if anyone has any advice on how to cope. I have no desire to find anyone else: we agreed on polyfidelitous triad, which is what I very much want.

Yea, so I'm with PolyCouple2013 (wow, that name XD gonna go with PC from now on), and while we're not exactly dating yet we're getting rather serious about trying it. It's that grey area at the moment between dating and not. What really worries me more than the usual poly issues, is actually...

Ah, thanks! I missed that somehow. ^^;;

Shipping on it's own doesn't really necessarily mean poly, but looking back at my long years as a fanfic writer (oh god, thankfully several years ago now), I realize now how often I would think of characters being in triads - it was particularly common with the manga/anime Fruits Basket, and I...

Just a thought, but you could always try making an irc for this site, perhaps. If it would be allowed by the mods. You can easily make a channel and it's usually free from what I understand. EDIT: Aaand I just realized I necroposted. =___=;;

I hope no one minds if I just pop this "reply" in here - I can't add anything, but I'm not sure how to watch threads otherwise. ^^;; I'm not sure if The Weakness in Me - Joan Armatrading really counts or not. What do you guys think? It almost seems a bit more about infidelity/temptation than...

Ooh, I'm gonna have to check all these out!

I'm a bit of a gamer myself. If I had a computer that could run it, I'd be playing Skyrim and Civ5 and Crusader Kings II. Nowadays, I'm mostly with Pokémon (Black and Emerald at the moment) and Pathfinder. One of my couple is actually the DM, which is how we met. :3

And that would be me. ^^; I'm about 25, from a small Midwest town, and I only know one poly irl, unfortunately. The whole thing is somewhat new to me, though I've had thoughts of it for at least a year, probably longer. I broke up from a monogamous relationship a few months ago, but it had...
