Don't give up hope on all monos! But if you like them, tell them right away of your situation. My husband and I got together over two years ago, he's mono , i'm poly, and he knows all about all my relationships, hookups, follies, desires.. its fine. we're sitting on the couch all happy and...

hey there, I am a poly woman in a marriage with a monogamous man as well. i was lucky in that we went into the relationship knowing that i would be open to date other people so it wasnt a surprise to anyone. it seems to be working out pretty well! best of luck.

This drives me crazy! I have noticed many people who are way more than willing to have an affair, but then I explain my relationship and they say they could "Never do that!" What????? But you can sleep around and lie during your entire relationship? Or the BUNDLES of men I have met that are...

Wow, I've had something similar happen as well. My boyfriend's partner decided that she was unhappy seeing us together. I flipped, because I was doing everything I possibly could (as the OP seems to be doing) not to step on her toes. We really got along on our own, but she just couldn't deal...

Heh. I guess i'm in the same boat when it comes to friends/public/when i meet new people at parties. my boys and i are completely out and interact freely. however my family does not know. my coworkers could i just havent had the chance to tell them yet.

I call my husband my husband, my boyfriend my boyfriend, and can explain the the relationship to anyone just as it is , open and equal on all sides :) any lovers I usually just tell people 'i have a connection with this person' or 'i am dating ____' or if i am talking to friends when x lover...

I've had this happen as well, on the subway i was with both my boys and just being lovey-huggy-kissy with both of them, these guys across from us were staring and talking. oooh well. no worries from me.

Are you sure its the 'frequency' that is bothering you? Perhaps the entire situation is beyond what you want. I don't see how having outside sex one or 100 times is any more or less respectful. It all depends on what you decide are the rules or set-up of your relationship together. If she sticks...

I am very sorry to hear you are going through this. The one thing I can say is I had to break up a 5-year relationship because the person I was with would not allow me an open relationship. It was heartbreaking, but I had to do it for myself at the time. I hope that you can work out a good...

well right now I am in a N which is made up with mixed sex members, but only one of us has a romantic relationship with one other member, we dont have triads/quads etc going. However I am open to that.

hey! I am from NYC as well! welcome to the forum. My boyfriend is on here as well so you have at least two other nyc members :)

Indeed.

I definitely understand what you are saying.. I figured she probably agreed to it but saying and doing are two different things. I am glad you are very reasonable about it like 'we are a package deal so if that means we don't have our triad so be it." I've found its pretty hard for...

thats right i am in nyc. !

Hi!! welcome :)
