    Polyam and proud in Tempe Arizona

    Try googling your city or a nearby city + polyamory and maybe you'll find a group. :) Good luck!

    Introduction

    Hi and welcome. Polyamory.com is a forum for discussing topics related to ethical non-monogamy. Take a look around, especially in the Relationships section, to see how we assist the polyamorous community. While we do have a Dating and Friendships section, we are not a dating site. People post...

    Out of the blue, I don't know what to do.

    Hi. I just want to confirm your feelings of being devastated, "not enough," the shock of this after a Christian upbringing and only ever being with one romantic/love/sex partner. You are reeling, and that is completely understandable. And you are not alone. I would suggest you try not to...

    Vocabulary update discussion: "polysexual"

    Oh! Haha. I also updated it at one point, since there were repetitions, typos, off-topic convos, and such.

    New here. And need some advice.

    Well, this is certainly a dilemma. I'd say that we've had this situation come up before, and sometimes it works out that a nice V is formed, while other times it goes up in flames, and the potential hinge of the V (i.e., a person like you) ends up losing both their spouse/established partner...

    Vocabulary update discussion: "polysexual"

    Huh, unfortunately, a regular search of the term only goes back to 2016. But by then, several people were using the term. Edit: I see in an Advanced Search that redpepper used the term in 2009. And LovingRadiance added it to our Glossary in 2010! I know LR got the definitions of terms of the...

    Vocabulary update discussion: "polysexual"

    https://polyamory.com/threads/polyamorous-vs-swingers.69813/ See this 2014 thread, post #10 here (by Galagirl) for another detailed example of this board's past and current members using the word "polysexual" to mean "having sex (usually casually, as opposed to in a love relationship) with more...

    Wife said she's poly, she's okay with me being poly, but I feel like I'd be cheating

    So this current situation, I am getting confused about names, friends, partners, spouses. Do you think you could choose nicknames? Like say: I'm not actually sure if the friend you confided in and your wife's new partner are the same person or not! Sorry for being dim haha So, you and Quinn...

    Wife said she's poly, she's okay with me being poly, but I feel like I'd be cheating

    Oh, how did I miss that? I guess I forgot, since it was back in early June. There's been a lot of water under the bridge in the past month. And with Oathkeeper's post yesterday, I got confused. Thanks, Tinwen.

    Semi new

    Hi and welcome. :) It sounds like you have had one casual MFM relationship, where there was threeway sex, and friendship, but not true love between you and the guy, or your wife and the other guy. How long did the relationship last? How long ago did it end? It also sounds like you want another...

    Hotwife to poly

    I'm not sure why Tinwen asked the question, but a platonic crush would be, I think, something like what they call a "bromance." Like, two guys that love each other, but they would say, "no homo," not in an actual romantic or sexual way.

    Ember's catharsis, musings, and updates.

    Suddenly spending several days a week with Finch-- how does that work when you've got a husband and young kids? I see you said you go out after they are in bed. Does that mean that Duck, your husband, has suddenly been thrust into being responsible for the kids a lot, since you're going out to...

    Wife said she's poly, she's okay with me being poly, but I feel like I'd be cheating

    Oathkeeper, let me see if I've got this right. You were raised very Christian and you have a wife. She was your first and only sex partner, and you were hers. You must be male and she is female. I imagine you two got married pretty young, so say 21, and now you're 31. 2 years ago, your wife...

    Hotwife to poly

    It's interesting, as a mother of three, myself (they are all grown, and I'm a grandma now), how you managed to do this hotwife dynamic in, as you said, the past few years, and your kids are only 10 and 2! If you've been doing it for 4 years, say, the older one was 6 when you started, and then...
