I think it's sad, too, that they don't feel like they can "just" reframe their relationship ("just" because that's still a big thing especially with a baby in the mix). One of the big pros to polyamory, to me, is the flexibility to let relationships be what they are instead of feeling forced to...

I'm feeling rather content this week. I've really gotten into the routine of meditating in the mornings. I've been lightly calorie counting (mostly to get points on achievement but also because it keeps me accountable with my choices). I'm not strict about it but being aware is helpful. Now to...

Yay! Thanks, @administrator

I thought one of the goals of changing systems was to have more built in spam deterrents. @ImaginaryIllusion hasn't posted since 2019. Is he okay? I wonder about @vinsanity0 as well since he was having health issues. I don't recall ever actually seeing the owner active here. Does he just keep up...

I've noticed as well and thought about volunteering.

I love the like feature here for that reason. A lot of times, people say things that I would have (but often better) so I can just like it. Or it is a way to celebrate a positive post without a gratuitous comment. I'm glad you love it here ☺️

Eek. I wonder if he found this?

A nurse I know just got fired and will likely not be able to find another job for... A while. On one hand, we are in need of every medical professional able to work. On the other, she gave away vaccines that were supposed to go to fellow front line workers to people who didn't qualify yet and...

Big shocker... Not pregnant. Lol I am however fully vaccinated. Very exciting. Both guys were willing to take a day off work to take care of me/little girl after my second shot if I had bad effects. I think they love me. 😁 I was fine though. Things are good here. Mental health ups and downs...

I would say that the disagreement was a learning experience - now you know that he doesn't view all time spent together the same as you. You can now decide how you feel about that mismatch. The withholding of affection though? For months? That's just icky no matter how you look at it and...

I think you're getting great advice on examining YOUR feelings but would like to add... From your husband's point of view, you are likely already cheating. Sharing an emotionally intimate relationship with someone, confessing love to him, hiding the depth of the relationship from your husband...

Well, the reason I want to delete the showers is because I have no interest in having those sorts in my life. I did send the message, with an addition that any negative comment about my relationship and political choices are not welcome. A question/conversation starter is fine, but blatant...

I did delete a few people off social media yesterday. My dad has it (and chooses to follow me), my mom does not. She is the one who reached out most recently saying that someone showed her my posts and that it "embarrassed" her to have others point them out. They NEVER say it out loud. It is...

This isn't about a poly relationships, really, but a personal relationship affected by my polyamory. I've shared before that my parents were not happy but not too rude about my "coming out" as poly and have met Boy a few times here and there. We live thousands of miles from my parents so it...

Boy began going through a divorce process a few months after he and I started dating. I had to take a step back for my own mental/emotional well being because people grieving for serious relationships often don't make good partners. It sounds like you and your partner may be more established...

There's been a TON of spammy posts lately.

I'm curious if your partner checked in about potential symptoms or exposures, too. We also to kitchen table style poly, and we have a standing agreement - if anyone feels sickly or has a potential exposure, we let everyone involved know and discuss comfort levels in that situation. Do you have...

Hubby is convinced I'm already pregnant. I'm hoping I'm not. I swear, that iud came out and my libido has been through the roof! It's been so fun! I actually tried to convince him to use condoms for a month or two just got fun. Lol little girl was conceived VERY quickly so while it wouldn't be a...

I have met MORE people online (okc and tinder - mostly tinder). I have met more COMPATIBLE people at poly meetups.

YOU are responsible for maintaining your own boundaries though. Don't want to hear about their relationship? Leave the room every time he mentions it. Partner is the one disrespecting your boundaries and ignoring your needs in the relationship. Partner is the one allowing his other partner to...
