Thanks for sharing, Vinsanity0. I agree it must have been hard. I would have never guessed you are currently single since your signature shows you're into an LDR. I hope you have the right people to support you at the moment, and if not, you now know you're not alone being in this situation!

It is an opinion based on solid facts. At which point, it becomes closer to being a fact than just an opinion. And if people on these forums can realize that, that's going to highly contribute to making me feel understood. I know counseling is the way to go. I'd rather hear about people's own...

Being polycore means to be only interested in polyamory (as opposed to monogamy or other nonmonogamous forms). My sadness and disarray comes from the fact that I believe I will always be single for the rest of my days (and thus make my life a pity). I mean; if it's hard to imagine for single...

I'm not in the U.S., and don't care about whatever other help there may be. I know there are hotlines where I live, but being polycore as the source of my current despair, only people who have experience with polyamory, or can relate to being polycore can help with this. So I took a day off...

Hi guys, In the recent days, I've been discussing about the controversial fact to see wether polyamory is a choice or not. Well, I feel polyamorous at the core, and feel like it's not a choice. And just yesterday, something totally unexpected happened. I feel crushed, and like there's...

Galagirl, thanks for your lenghty reply; it's still messy, and there are a lot of people still misunderstanding me (I intended to leave A for B, not to enter non-mono), but I think I got this for now. Ravenscroft, I saw your other post and replied in it... and I realize and agree this thread...

Wow, Ravenscroft, you have some guts to start this thread the way you did. Could I suggest you edit your introduction?

"I am because I am." Wise words. ;)

It sounds like you've liberated yourself, but I'm curious: how happy were you before (in mono relationships)? Did you feel like you were so very far from being your true self that you couldn't be truly happy?

That sort of strict categorizing (or denying) does sound a bit like what you're describing in part, just in a modern society. Otherwise, polyamory is illegal (as in marrying 2 people). Poly people find ways around the law to find happiness, but I wonder what it would really take to change the...

I was; The same way I wouldn't tell a gay person: "You're gay only if you are in a gay relationship"; It doesn't make sense, nor is it fair to assume; So at first, I believed poly people didn't need to be in a poly relationship to be considered poly (even if they feel forced into a...

Thanks for that, because I can totally relate to what you're describing here. So if Polyamory is only the act, is there a name for the kind of orientation?

Hello all again, If you want to skip the intro, feel free to just answer my question below... I would like to thank everyone who has welcomed me and answered my posts so far; particularly to Al, Kevin T, and Galagirl for your time. It seems like I found the right community here, so I'm...

Absolutely, clearly, yes. I couldn't care less about making friends because I consider such relationships superficial, untrustworthy, and therefore priorize deeper, meaningful relationships instead. Without the kind of special connection I could have with anyone, I would feel meaningless. But...

Am I poly? Hi all, thank you so much for your input, I think it's been a great idea for me to come on these forums. However, I believe the reason I came here is still to judge if I am poly or not. I'm kind of like this 14-year old queer boy wondering what's wrong with him: gay or not? What...
