    Thinking about poly, am I being unreasonable?

    NYCindie, thank you so much for your last response. It shows that I was understood fully. Due to everyone's responses I know what needs to be done.

    Thinking about poly, am I being unreasonable?

    From the overwhelming similar responses, therapy, it seems, is the best answer. I accept that I have a hard time letting it all go in order to move forward, and now with everyone's help, realize that is what I must do.

    Thinking about poly, am I being unreasonable?

    First off, thank you for all the honest replies. You all have opened my eyes. But please allow me to explain my thoughts behind the "trying poly" comment.

    Thinking about poly, am I being unreasonable?

    Hello to all, My wife and I have been together for 13 years, married for 8, and have been strictly mono. A few years ago, we both "lightly cheated" at right about the same time. No actual sex, supposedly, but it did get physical, and if not found out/caught, would probably have eventually got...
