    Seattle - looking for a partner or two

    Hi there! I'm an ENM and married poly man in Seattle. Besides my beautiful bride, who has a very busy poly calendar, I have a partner in Surrey, BC. What we have is great but getting together can be tricky. I am looking for partners that are much more local to me. We practice kitchen table...

    Wife is poly, I am not, this is very new

    By the time my wife found this partner, we had already configured our living arrangement and put to bed any concerns or fears. I met the people he was living with at the time and my wife would stay with them one week and with me the next. She still spends MUCH more time with him than with me...

    Wife is poly, I am not, this is very new

    One of the things I did with my wife's main partner, who does, for all intents and purposes live with us, was start to get to know him apart from my wife. He is super respectful of me and my feelings about my wife and I am about his about her. It wasn't easy, but it was simple. I would hang out...

    New to the forum but not to polyamory

    Thank you! It's taken work and teamwork to decide how we are, as well as who we are individually. I will admit it took a really long time for my anger about the deception to pass and for my strategy for dealing with all of it to change to a more loving one from one where I was just looking to...

    New to the forum but not to polyamory

    Hi, I'm Mark! My wife and I have been polyamorous for several years. The greatest benefit to our marriage from polyamory is much improved communication. She had been cheating on me for a couple of years because she was afraid I'd leave her if I knew she was interested in sex with other men...
