    Jealousy, Envy, Insecurity, etc.: Merged Threads, General Discussion

    Thank you! This is what I have been trying to tell my husband. (I think I need to email him what I wrote.) In the past we have never moved past this point where we are now, me trying to work through the emotion of jealousy. That is part of why we stopped seeking another to add to the...

    Jealousy, Envy, Insecurity, etc.: Merged Threads, General Discussion

    Jealousy - the brain vs the heart I read a piece about jealousy on another site). It made me think. I have been jealous, not green with envy, angry jealous, but jealous, nonetheless. What I read is everything my brain has already known. My husband and I have been together for 15 years, married...

    Why do you use the online name that you use?

    I chose to use one of my names just for the poly boards (for privacy reasons)... and the 101 was kind of a throwback to college, 101 for introductory courses... as I am new to the poly life I thought 101 was appropriate, I'm still learning.

    What did you do today that made you smile?

    I came home from 10 (REALLY boring) hours at work to my kids' smiling faces and hugs and kisses from them all! No matter how tired I am, they can always make me smile.

    Trying to learn...

    How do you cope with jealousy?

    Thanks redpepper! Actually, I love coffee shops... just wish they didn't charge $5 for a cup of coffee I can make at home (my hubby got me an espresso machine last year) for .50. ROFL I really like the crafting circle idea. Tea, coffee, cookies and crafts while sitting around the living room...

    How do you cope with jealousy?

    I do need to get out, there just don't seem to be enough hours in the day/week/month for that.

    How do you cope with jealousy?

    I have been feeling jealous, not overly so, but when my husband is with me I want his undivided attention but then he starts calling our third... and then our third's friend. Must be nice to have that many friends. I have no one to talk to... I am stuck with message boards. I feel like I am...

    New to the forum, happy I found it!

    Hi! My husband and I have been married for 13 years but have always felt the poly lifestyle was for us. After a few years though, we kind of gave up. Well, 2 years ago my husband met a woman. In the past year their relationship has gone from friendship to something more intimate. We finally all...
