I have the same thing going on over here, except I've been with my boyfriend for four years now. It even feels weird calling him "boyfriend" because I don't know that he even considers himself that. I told him I loved him recently and I can't get him to validate the feelings back in words, but...

I see a sex therapist to help me work through my issues with the whole lifestyle. I've found it be extremely helpful. If you were local I'd recommend her but I'm pretty positive you don't live in Wisconsin, but try looking for a sex therapist in your area. She's helped me immensely in feeling...

I've believed that humans have the ability to love more than one person for the longest time, it's the reason we have the open marriage. However, I didn't actually believe I did, but after four years with my boyfriend I finally admitted that I love him, and vice versa. I feel like I'm officially...

For the better part of our open marriage, I've had the wrong goals in what I was looking for. I was more often enjoying the new attention of quick relationships that wouldn't last. I've grown tired of it and have since changed my thinking to wanting to find someone who is more suitable to our...

I sent you an email. I don't mind answering some questions. Cause of the nature of my business my emails tend to go to spam so I wanted to be sure to let you know to check there! Good luck with your thesis. (I didn't read to the end to see if you found enough so this may be fruitless :)

Wohooo you rock, thanks! xo

I have two Facebook accounts. One that is a professional/clean version of myself where I let my clients add me, and friends who I am not comfortable sharing every detail of my life with, and family. The other account is the real me, where I let people in who are comfortable with my marriage...

I figured out how to turn off notifications of some sorts, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to not subscribe to every thread I read so I don't get that email telling me someone has replied? I don't want to get those emails, how can I shut them off? Thanks in advance :) xo

I really only feel comfortable answering your first question: If you were already with someone, how did you approach them with the polyamory subject? If instead you were single but got into a poly, how did you get into said relationship? I approached my husband and told him I was drowning in...

AutumnalTone I LOVE your signature!!!

I have found over time I pick up on the signs. After dating so long now in my open marriage, I can pretty much pick up when they are being dishonest. And if I have the least bit of doubt I always say, "I'll need to meet your wife before we can see each other regularly." Or if they claim to be...

Would your wife be ok accepting that she doesn't meet your emotional needs and letting you find those elsewhere? My husband doesn't meet mine. We've discussed that and he is ok with me finding it elsewhere. However, it was a little hard to swallow at first. I am also very needy. I admit this...

I'm there as well. Same id :)

I really think that no matter what I say you're going to have a bitter reply to it, as all of your replies here sound harsh and unappreciative of people reaching out to offer you advice, thoughts, suggestions. I see you are in therapy. Hopefully you can work out your issues there. Good luck. xoxo
