Hi ArkansasQueen, I guess my questions are all timing-based. Did you know he was poly before you became a couple? Did you know there was a possibility of this becoming a "thing" before you became a couple? How much talking about it did you do before you became a couple? Or did all of this...

Hi Abbie, You're absolutely not alone. I feel mainstream society has drilled the concept of monogamy into out heads since birth, and while there's nothing wrong with monogamy, it's not something everyone identifies with -- unfortunately there aren't as many support communities for polyamory as...

Hello redfriend, In the bigger picture of things, I'm also late to the game. I feel I was probably identifying as poly since the late 80s but didn't have a label for it back then. It wasn't until about 2 years ago that I actually started to understand these feelings I've had all these years...

Hi Jenni, I'm coming into this conversation late (just one aspect of my poor time-management skills) but thought I would add my 1 cent. It would have been 2 cents but it's a penny for my thoughts, so that's all I've got left. In my local community I've seen quite a number of new people show...

Yep. I didn't want the current local discussion group to disappear, but it did anyway. Let me give you an idea of what we have (had) in the general area. Tampa Poly Discussion group - meets once a month in a private room in a restaurant chain. I've been to a few and the gathering tends to...

Thank you! It's what I'm known by in my community and on social media related to the community.

Hi Kevin, The "exact" amount of time is hard to say, but if we go by when my paramours met, I think it will be 18 months toward the end of next month. --Vaughn

@nycindie, I understand...perhaps I was dating myself a bit when I chose to quote a song lyric as my subject line. Certainly didn't intentionally mean to exclude the rest of the world.

Reaching out to those who attend local poly discussion groups... What are some of the topics that seem to get a lot of interaction from those attending? I'm hosting a very small (intentionally) discussion group on Sunday, and I'll be perfectly honest I'm very nervous about it. I want to avoid...

Vaughn here, relatively newish to polyamory compared to others. Have had the feeling since high school (mid 80s) but only officially identified it as such two years ago. Am the point/hinge of a V configuration. Will add my partners' data in my signature later as I see other people doing that...

Welcome! I have a similar journey, just in a different State. Looking forward to seeing where my journey takes me!
