    How long will you take?

    Oh man, this sounds so familiar. :( Unfortunately, sometimes we let go of the things we want or need because they are not understood or an option for the other party. We make a choice to do what is best for everyone else, even if it is at great costs to ourselves. It takes a very long time to...

    How long will you take?

    This sounds really similar to my current situation. Please excuse the small high jacking of the thread. Me= poly even before I knew there was a word for it. Never cut out to be housewife material, more of a wanderer type Gamerboy(my partner)= More traditional but open minded. now struggling...

    Tats & Piercings?

    So far this year I have added three piercings, my tongue and two cartilage piercings and a tattoo. That brings me to ten piercings and four tats. I'll have to post a pic of my newest tat later, the artist did a great job. Has anyone else noticed a habit of getting tattooed and/or pierced when...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    There's a lot of things going on and shifting right now, both good and bad, and I am trying to remember that change is never easy. But god, this is something I need so badly. I need things to shift so I can have a life outside of the house/school/kids. I have spent so much of life caring for...

    You are very talented. All of the paintings are lovely, although the top one is my favorite. It looks like a wonderful place to spend time.

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    Well my new friend and I have been playing some screwed up game of tag. He works all of the time, we chatted sporadically but haven't seen each other, other than a couple of skype convos, for about six weeks regardless of a couple of attempts on my part. Whenever I decide to let it be and...

    Ugh.. dating

    Been there, in the middle of that right now. ugh are we, aren't we? Unfortunately, it makes me feel like avoiding the whole mess but that's the exact opposite of what I actually want. My best advice, like others have said, is to keep busy and be sure to acknowledge and really examine the...

    How do you know when it's love and not NRE?

    Interesting question and one I have thought about A LOT. The difference between love and intense feelings/nre or a crush. I read a sign once that said that if you have feelings for someone for more than six months it's no longer a crush. ha, I searched and searched for any truth to it. never...

    Why and how did you get into poly?

    The simple truth? I have known/felt monogamy wasn't for/didn't make sense to since I was a child. I could never combine society's rules and ideals with my feelings. For a long time I thought this meant that I should not/could not be in a long term relationship. It has only been within the last...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    My new friend is planning to come up to my area, he lives about an hour and a half away, for a couple of days next week. :D I feel all gushy and nervous. Trying to keep those feelings in check, hopefully I'm doing alright. I'm also trying to keep Gamerboy in the loop and make sure he's ok with...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    I've made a new friend on OK and we've been chatting quite a bit. He's new to the whole poly idea but very open minded. Not sure it will go anywhere but if nothing else I educated someone about different types of relationships and I'm enjoying spending time with him. Kinda hoping to meet in...

    Movies that would have been better with a poly ending.

    I agree completely but I'd prefer Eric and Sam. Tara is cute but not my type.:D

    Movies that would have been better with a poly ending.

    I think Pushing Daisies would have been great with a triad between the three main characters. Ned, and the two women. Oh well.
