Oh me oh my. I'm not really sure where to start. My fiance and I have been together over four years. For most of those four years we've been in an open relationship, and since January we've been poly (i.e. open to romantic/emotional relationships with other people, not just sexual). I always...

Hey coolkat! I totally understand where you are coming from. I had a secondary (for lack of a better term) for awhile and I had this problem. It wasn't that I wanted to hear from him everyday, but at least a few times a week! Personally, I am the kind of person that appreciates daily or at...

We've been engaged for over two years and have no immediate plans to get married, lol. Weddings are really stressful and expensive... So we're putting it off until it feels right (which might even be never... both of us don't feel as if we need the paper and title to validate our relationship...

Thank you! First of all, I just wanted to thank ALL of you who replied! Even those who didn't really have advice but just let me know I wasn't alone. It's been super refreshing and helpful to read all of your replies! I'm kinda pressed for time at the moment, but you better believe I'll be...

Hey guys... I'm not sure where else to turn. I'll try not to ramble or sound too whiny...I just feel so confused. My fiance and I have been together over four years. For over three years of that time we've been in an open relationship. For the last seven months we have been poly (when we were...

Hey guys! I tried a quick search to see if there were any other threads on this and couldn't find one... Please point me in the right direction if I missed it. The question I wanted to ask is for those of you that are married or engaged and in poly/open relationships... Do you always wear your...

Kinda a bit late, since I've already started posting elsewhere... But I just wanted to say hi! My name is Naomi and I am a 24 year old woman who is in an open relationship with my fiance. We are both students and I also work as a webcam model. Chad (my man) and I have been non-monogamous for...

Thanks so much for all your responses. It's been very interesting to read and I will definitely check that other thread out :) I love my family and I don't think they would ever shun me for something... But I don't think poly is something they'd approve of. I'm already well-versed in hiding...

Hey guys, I'm new to the whole poly thing and just starting to learn about it... I find it wonderful and fascinating. I was wondering how many of you here (that are poly) share with your family that you are? (Ex. if you have a husband and a boyfriend, do your parents know your boyfriend? Do...

NYCindie, I will DEFINITELY check that out. I just don't really have the time to read right now, but I wanted to reply to ya. I think you are right. In either case, I have decided to wait to tell him. Whenever he and I are hanging out alone together again, and it feels right to do so, I'll find...

NYCindie, thanks for the response. I think you raise very good points. See, the thing I'm worried about is, Tai moves in, I get to see him all the time, the feelings for him grow more and more... Then a few months down the road, I tell him how I feel, and either things go great, or a) he doesn't...

Wow, thank you so much for your reply! :) I think you are right. But when I brought this up with Brett, that maybe I should tell Tai before he moved in, Brett thought it was too soon, said I was obsessing and shouldn't say anything, because Tai just got out of a relationship, etc. But I think...

Hi all, I'm looking for a little advice. My fiance Brett and I are just beginning to dip our toes into the waters of polyamory. We are both completely new to it and have only recently discussed actually acting on the idea of us having romantic, loving relationships outside of our relationship...
