Completely agree. My mono (poly-curious now maybe?) partner and I read both More Than Two and Opening Up together (I read The Ethical Slut on my own, but soon into it realized it would not be my partner's cup of tea--and it wasn't really my own cup of tea, either). Reading them at the same time...

If you're a AAA member, they do passport photos for free. Just in case. :)

Hi from another geeky, homeschooled, poly bi woman in a long-term relationship with a (currently self-identified, but poly-curious) mono guy. A lot of your post definitely resonated with me, and I'd love to chat with you sometime if you're up for it. Feel free to PM me on here and we can...

Thank you all for your advice and insight! I definitely will have some talks with live-in to clarify some things. And it seems like a couple other friends might be going who do not know LDR, so live-in would be able to hang out with them if I'm busy--if he still ends up wanting to go, knowing I...

Summary: I'm the hinge to live-in partner (7 years together, see him every day) and LDR partner (friends 10 years, partners <1, see him every few months). We all share a hobby (Live-in and LDR became friends when I introduced them 7 years ago, are not currently friends, but also don't hate each...

Thanks everyone! Doing better today, most people who've brought it up to me either didn't believe what she said in the first place, or think it's none of her concern and she's out of line. I personally don't mind being "out," but my live-in partner is still figuring out how he feels about it/who...

Nyc, agreed. Not to mention the fact I was friends with him before they even dated. It's not even like I only met him through her. And it's been over a year since she's spoken to me. So bizarre. I have screen shots of all the things she said, and I did in fact make my own facebook status that...

She deleted the status, but I've been doing damage control all morning. I just want to crawl into a hole.

Thanks Nyc, I was wondering about that. I had problems with a neighbor threatening me before (posted on facebook that she was going to "accidentally" overflow her bathtub so that it would ruin my apartment--I lived below her), and the police told me there's nothing they can do about "facebook...

Not necessarily looking for advice as I don't think there's really much to be done (but if you have some, send it my way!), just support or to see if anyone's been in a similar situation. Long story (hopefully kind of) short, one of my ex-best friends (she cut off contact with me about a year...

I totally agree with Kevin. I've had jobs and bosses like that before and it's not healthy whatsoever. There's no reason you should have to feel guilty at all! I'm also interested to know if your therapist has said anything about it. Hope you're able to get out of that yucky situation!

Thank you so much everyone!

I'm still such a newbie--I'm in need of some advice/thoughts/suggestions! Thank you in advance! (And Ink, if you happen to stumble upon and read this before I'm able to talk to you about it and realize this is me and that you are Ink, let's talk whenever you're able :D) Background: I have been...

Will definitely be doing the worksheets!

Thank you both for your replies and advice!
