    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    Well, maybe I wasn't clear. My preferred relationship doesn't have to involve three people, but if it did, it would be a triad, NOT a V. (I don't like using these labels, though. That's why I referred to them the way I did.)( And I'm not saying I would be unwilling to participate in a V...

    I really like the this forum is the first environment I have ever been in

    Where the word slut is not used. Except in conjunction with the word Ethical.

    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    I have no problem with you asking. You also said, "It sounds like you would if Mary did." I was just asking you what led you to that conclusion. I also thought I had already answered that question, contrary to what you interpreted (which is why I was wondering what part of what I said led you...

    in search of truth

    These were my thoughts from just now reading your first post on this thread and they haven't changed since your followups: First of all, I would be OUT OF THERE from the beginning. What I mean is, you have to understand that this relationship is over. This is probably as good a place as any to...

    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    Well, I think Mary and I may have similar taste in women, at least. I also trust her judgement with people, so I think if she had a bad feeling from a woman I was interested in, that would cause me to reconsider. What would possibly lead you to believe that? Are you making this assumption...

    A Home at the end of the world (excellent movie centered around a poly relationship)

    Has anyone seen this movie? IMO it's the best movie I have ever seen centered around a loving relationship between 3 people. It's a little weird and honestly I don't really think the movie goes downhill after the first few scenes and long before the relationship stuff even factors in but I do...

    help

    sounds like quite the hallucination you're having :D I think you've been very supportive given that you both entered the relationship with a monogamous understanding. We're not perfect and I think the fact that you feel ashamed for reacting the way you did and (I assume) have told him that and...

    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    I think she might be willing to give it a try if she feels she could be interested in them, for a couple of reasons: One is a previous incident early on, in the first month of our five-month relationship. It's a long story that might be out of place here, but I guess I'll skim over it. A girl...

    Sexual Intimacy and HPV

    I'm actually a male, but from what I understand, over 90% of sexually active people who have had sex with more than 2 people have some strain of HPV. However, out of something like 40 strains of HPV only 3 are believed to be dangerous. These 3 are primarily dangerous to women, although I believe...

    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    As a matter of fact, that was a very helpful post. Thank you, LovingRadiance. I still don't know my position on the matter, but it seems like we all have to find what we are comfortable with. Some people may be polyamorous by nature, most of us may be monoamorous by nature. Maybe there is also...

    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    Thanks to everyone for their input. I have gotten more comfortable with the situation and am hoping we are going to be able to remain friends, for right now, at least. I have considered myself polyamorous for the past four years, but never actually put it to practice. I've never dated more...

    new to this and looking for people to talk to

    This might be swinging, unless you are seeing other people for more than just sex.

    My belief in polyamory may have destroyed the best relationship I have ever had

    I am coming here for help because I am pretty distraught over this situation. I have been seeing this girl, "Mary," for about 5 months. I love her very much, and I believe she loves me, as well. We just started seeing a relationship counselor two weeks ago, because of our fighting and our...
