    I get two gardens!

    It's a silly little thing that makes me happy, but this year I get two gardens! The first is a "community" garden my husband and I are splitting with a couple friends on our acre lot. The other is going to be a small container garden on my boyfriend's balcony. I don't have much overlap between...

    Temporary "Romantic" Relationships

    I'd say go for it, because there are so many what ifs to what might actually happen. When my boyfriend and I first met, there was a tentative expiration of a year. Love had really hit us hard though, and there are no plans for him to move away at this time. Course, we are only six months in...

    Open relationship jealousy

    My husband is too busy to date atm, so I don't have experience with it, but I've seen posted quite a few times on here about how it is much harder for married men to find women them the vice versa. What methods are you using to put yourself out there to find your ticket, so to speak? I would...

    He slept with someone before we've really started having a poly relationship

    I don't have any insight to give you, but that seems kinda shitty of him. :/ He scratched an itch and didn't really involve you... Do you know/need to worry about if they were safe?

    Success on OkCupid?

    I think that you're more likely to find success on okc if you know what you are looking for. I tried it a few years back when I was first discovering myself, got hits by lots of varying people, but didn't follow up on any. Then this May I tried it again, but with a much clearer idea of what I...

    Siblings

    My boyfriend told me about how he'd been fwb with a girl when he was introduced to her sister, and they got it off real well and started dating. It icked me out a little, but only because I couldn't help but imagine if it was one of my sisters. But then, I don't know if it's a moral thing so...

    New relationship confusion... need advice.

    Eh, it kinda sounds like you're being dumped. Imagine if she was mono and giving you the same signals (avoidance and disinterest), would you still be wondering? Maybe someone else will chime in and say otherwise/give where to go from here, but that is my take on it.

    *hugs* I don't really have any good advice, but breakups suck and I'm sorry you're going through one.

    Different types of love?

    I literally just had this conversation with my husband about my boyfriend, and it ended up with me comparing them to kitchen appliances. :p A stove and a fridge are cornerstones in a kitchen, but you can't replace one with the other.

    Poly Tv shows

    I keep meaning to watch My Five Wives, I liked how the commercials presented it. What seems like a long time ago, we watched a video in school/college about relationships outside of what was generally presented as normal. There was a section in it about a woman in a V with two men (living with...

    Your first metamour

    I currently do not have any metamours, though I met am ex-girlfriend of my boyfriend (there is, or at least was, a possibility they would get back together) over dinner. She brought her husband with and it had a nice double date feel. As for conversation leading up, it was nothing memorable...
