I just thought of a very old school song about Poly. Torn Between Two Lovers... I believe it's Mary Macgregor. I remember hearing it when I was just a kid. Didn't realize it was about Poly.

The child that doesn't know My partners and I had an interesting discussion about children today. Our children range from ages 21-29, six children in total. All but one of our children are aware and accepting of our poly relationship. In all honesty, it is our youngest, my son, who doesn't...

Do you accept them as truth or no that they're not

Hi and welcome to forum. You should be able to find great advice here. Our V finds going out in public together very doable. I can't remember a time we didn't go out in public together. We have gone on weekend adventures, vacation, shopping, dinner. We have attended weddings, funerals, and...

Do you regret thoughts spoken aloud, and words you can't take back ?

Echoes with a feeling, you long thought forgotten

I'm sorry if I was unclear. I do not feel that all swingers behave this way. I was giving a specific example of these couples. Not all the couples we met were condescending and rude. But over two nights, in two different towns, the overall experience for me was not one I would care to repeat. I...

If I could just interject my opinion here, take it for what it's worth-- I had an opportunity this summer to meet my partner's swinging "friends." (If putting it in quotes makes it seem sarcastic, I meant it to.) I have never been in any relationship except a mono, one woman, one man. Swinging...

OMG. I love it. How many times have we had people pointing fingers and whispering. If we had that letter, it would be so much easier. Drop it down in front of them, and move on. Reminds me of the application "Do you really want to date my daughter?"

I am in total agreement with you here. I know there have been times in our relationship where issues have arisen between Sea and Tommy that had nothing to do with me. From an outsider's perspective, it could be said that if I weren't there, those issues would've been moot. I have been a...

I can say with 100% honesty that we are a true poly family. We have 6 adult children, and one grandbaby. We don't all share the same blood, but are definitely one family. We have been there for each other. Weddings, babies, death. We share each other's lives good and bad. When one of our...

I agree with Ceoli, poly does seem to be an umbrella term. I think we sometimes feel the need to label ourselves so others will understand our choices. I don't identify as anything except who I am. A woman searching for the same things everyone else is searching for. Love, understanding, and...

Welcome. You should find lots of different dynamics here on the forum, and many insights. Enjoy.

Have definitely been there. When we started out, it was a swinging thing. My sort-of partner at the time had been friends with my partners before I was. Because I wanted to be part of Sea and Tommy's life, I thought, "This is great, we all get to be together." The problem was, he wasn't honest...
