Ugh-- being assertive is not my forte. I'm much more demure. She is definitely the assertive one. I also find it hard to think I'd ever hold a valuable place in his life, because, like I mentioned in the OP, I've been pushed away before. Any problem that arises between them seems to be...

How much of a relationship should there be between two people who just happen to be dating the same person? I feel we do enough. We get along when the three of us hang out. We have a nice time when we occasionally hang out just us girls. When I try to not be shy we are able to communicate pretty...

The thing is, I'm scared to say anything that might sound negative to her, because I'm quite sure she will just decide I'm a bitch, and not allow my bf to see me anymore, which would totally suck and break my heart. So I'm trying to stay quiet and do what she says so I can stick around. I kinda...

Ditto. Also are you letting your potential lovers know your open/poly/married before any relationship is started? I think that's something important to let someone know right when you meet (if there's an interest there), or on the first date (again, if it's something you plan on pursuing). It...

When my bf asked me to be his gf he gave me the sweetest speech ever about how he wanted me to have a title, he didnt want to introduce me as a lover, just a friend or just "Alhena" he wanted to be able to see his friends and say this is my girlfriend. It was really cute so yesterday when we...

I'm curious what people call their lovers -to others i mean. how do you introduce your primary or secondaries? what title do they have when you mention them casually to coworkers and acquaintances. Is it lover? or boy/girlfriend? or husband/wife/spouse? partner? Is it a differant introduction...

I only assume that because 1. we have already laid around in bed all together just relaxing 2. theres no where else for me to sleep and 3. its been implied I would. :)

Ive yet to sleep over when my bfs wife is home but i assume we would all sleep in the same bed. Other times ive been over with them we all cuddle togehter watching movies, he sits in the middle while wife and gf snuggle up on either side of him. Out in public same thing, he sits between us...

One of my sisters, along with 2 cousins and most of my close friends know Im in a poly relationship. My sister, one cousin and few friends that dont really agree are still being supportive and not making it a big deal so its not affecting our relationships at all. My other friends and cousin...

Advice needed, please. I may be overreacting. TIA. So, I’m new to this and I’m not really sure if this is normal or acceptable. My bf and his wife have been poly for a lot longer than I, so I expected them to understand more and be used to the lifestyle. But it seems that things are falling...

Well he has never offered to pay me back and I dont really need it so i dont push it, but he sure does ask me for gas money when I ride around with him. Geesh i feel like im sounding super greedy. Thanks for the responses guys

especially for the men in relationships with 2 women, how do you deal with buying things for both? Do you occasionally or never is it everyone for themselves? When you all pitch in who pays for what? how do you make it work? Im having a problem with my bf currently, i still havnt spoken to him...

Before my bf and I became an actual couple but had been dating for months we had to stop seeing each other for awhile. He and his wife had some issues which I was told had nothing to do with me but still to make her feel more comfortable about the other situation he volunteered to get rid of me...

Well, I'm going through this right now, so I'm probably not much help, since I'm just as confused. I have a new bf. I've told my eldest sister and a couple friends that he's married and we're in a poly relationship. Mostly I've gotten curious/good responses from friends, except one, who...

I think the acting is pretty bad but overall the content is good as far as ive watched. Theres 11 episodes so far but im only at 2.

Anyone watch these? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2-MTs_Lsog (this is part one, but theres other episodes) What does anyone think?

Pretty large group living together with kids and making it work. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29239960/ I love this article, and I'm even more thrilled to see it on a mainstream site. I'm also kind of surprised (in a good way) how much positive feedback there is in the comments.

That is exactly how my current relationship is, we have several sets of couples but there is no triads/quads going on. My bf and I, my bf and his wife, his wife and her gf and her gf with her own husband. Right now we keep it all seperate but I wouldnt mind bringing more together someday.

Hello everyone :D I'm a total noob both to this site (duh), to the lifestyle and to my current relationship. I've been seeing my poly boyfriend (N) since January, but we have only been offically bf/gf for almost a month. We dont live together but we all live fairly close in Los Angeles. He is...
