    Gift giving in long distance poly relationship

    Have a look on Etsy as well. The small sellers there are an absolute gold mine for geekdom. You can find all sorts of little gems there. You can also find sellers who work close to where your partner lives and therefore postage prices will be less.

    Ethical poly? Need advice!

    I'm so sorry that you've had to experience this. I hope you find happiness in the future and that you and Tree can find some way to co-parent that doesn't cause you further pain.

    Ethical poly? Need advice!

    It just sounds as though she's been bribing him to remain in her life. It doesn't say much about Tree that he would stick around for that.

    Ethical poly? Need advice!

    I haven't read all of the responses on this post, so my apologies if I say something that has already been said. To my eyes it seems as though Rose may have fabricated the pregnancy in the first place because they felt threatened by Tree's pregnancy with you. The fact that they later became...

    How to address lack of affection and intimacy?

    I definitely haven't been losing interest. I told him a few months ago that I wanted to be there with him and we've set things in motion. We live on different continents so it's not a simple process. But it's moving along now. My job is really stressful right now and so is his, add to that the...

    How to address lack of affection and intimacy?

    Just an update, rather than a reply to specific questions. My partner and I had a check-in this morning. He started, and brought me all these things about him feeling insecure in our relationship at the moment because I've not been talking about the move much. He had a bad situation with his...

    How to address lack of affection and intimacy?

    The girl he was texting while we were on a date was long distance. But they aren't together anymore. The one who wanted to try being with him is local. She has since found someone else. She doesn't rest on her laurels. In the time that he and I have been together, he hasn't actually be on any...

    Thank you all for your input. I will have a conversation with him this weekend. We have made plans to spend some quality time together.

    How to address lack of affection and intimacy?

    My partner (M, 45, poly) and I (NB, 48, mono) have been together for around three years now in a LDR. In the beginning, naturally it was all very affectionate and fiery. As time has gone on that has diminished, which I would expect. We've always had peaks and troughs in that area, but in the...

    Hi, nice to be here!

    Thanks! Yeah, I guess I'm a glutton for punishment tackling mono/poly and LDR. But kinda fell into it. We started as friends, grew into a more supportive and nurturing thing and now we're sharing a wonderful, loving relationship.

    Hi, nice to be here!

    Hi, LavenderLilacMauve here. I love purple (in case that wasn't obvious by the name :LOL:) I'm 48, mono, non-binary and in a relationship with a poly guy, 45. He's been poly for a long time and he and I have been together in a LDR for three years (working on moving me closer soon) We're doing...
