Wow. It never even occurred to me in the past 30 years to come out about *any* of this (bisexual, poly, non-monogamy) to *any* of my family. Consider this...when my (42 year old) cousin had a child out of wedlock (*gasp*) with one of his girlfriends and they decided not to get married as a...

Swinging LR.... Wait....what... You've been flirting? :-)

Full of desire and sense of need? LR, I'm touched! :P

For us, swinging turned out to be a means to an end (although at the time we had only the faintest concept of that being the case). It was our entry to non-monogamy and served as a way for Luv to see that god wasn't going to strike her dead instantly, and that I wasn't watching with eagle eyes...

From mrs LuvNWonder Be true to yourself. She needs to know that it is a possibility. It's part of who you are and it doesn't threaten your relationship at all. Separation by distance can be affecting her ability to understand it and support you. Mr LNW and I are apart right now due to his job...

I probably shouldn't respond immediately after spending three whole days consoling, and even counseling, two wonderfully cherished friends whose life together of 20 years is coming to an end, because one is committed to poly, heart, mind, and soul, and one is firmly opposed. Obviously, there...

Oh please do continue to share! We wish you the best!

From the Mrs LuvNWonder I (Luv) had more than a little trepidation about that event. I am generally an extrovert, although I do have a streak of constraint when getting very intimate. Crossing that barrier, quite frankly, is emotionally challenging. Having experienced a great deal of...

Making it good the first time First... :p Then... Oh, please do. First times (at anything) can be so traumatic. I think there is much to be learned from other's experiences. I just wish I could be as open with "everyday" people around me as I can be here. Brian

I was concerned it was TMI, but if there are no complaints I'll continue, as that's my style. Thank you.

kinda simple, for now. double pierce in left ear, armband of celtic knot with anglo-saxon phrase from the ancient journey charm superimposed: "Never may my spirit fraught with fear become" Luv wants twin cherubs as tribute to twins that we lost. Brian

Luv and I have from the beginning our discussions on poly both been...well, enamored...with the idea of a quad. Ever since we've been non-mono our most wonderful times have been spent with couples. We understand intellectually that a deep poly relationship with a quad may never happen, but the...

just adding noise to the ratio So...Junior Member and Senior Member *doesn't* have anything to do with age?!

I'd have to agree completely with the fullness/emotional/physical link because for me an increase in emotional fullness and relational fitness has coincided with a 35 lb. drop in the past two years. I too have no problem choosing to feel hungry sometimes because my body is just being silly and...

Please share your thoughts, JonnyAce. I'm finding that expression of these things has been so much better than letting them just swirl around in my head.
