    About to marry into a throuple

    Yes we do! but still, its toughest for me to create an "air vent" in the middle, even with that, but i am the most regulated body of the three by far (maybe because i sleep nude?) so im not all that worried about being able to create an air vent or whatever

    About to marry into a throuple

    So far the sharing an extra wide king bed is working out fine for everyone so long as i take the middle (I sleep the best and am most regulated for temperature), which I don't love always being in middle, but it's a small sacrifice since its making it all work. I built a little shelf so i have...

    About to marry into a throuple

    About to fly back to the town we are moving from to finish prepping for the wedding. It's surreal to see our future apartment mostly put together, mostly furnished, looking like an empty shell of what soon will be our lives. Scary but exciting!

    About to marry into a throuple

    We all watched it last night before S and I flew this morning to our new city to work on the house. I loved it (again) and so did they, especially Samantha. And I agree it's already starting fruitful conversations. Thanks again!!!

    About to marry into a throuple

    Welp, Samantha and I just flew to the city we'll all be moving to after the wedding and Taylor's job transfer goes through. We are working daylight (we both work remote), and spending evenings starting to unpack the first of the two moving trucks (one for stuff we could send ahead, the other...

    Poly life and careers

    That would be VERY difficult. We are blessed by 2/3 of our triad working remote (so no issues there), and Taylor having a job that really doesn't care. (He doesn't advertise at work AT ALL, but they are pretty open and not invasive in privacy in general, so he also doesn't feel he has to like...

    About to marry into a throuple

    Great advice. I’ve seen it because I’m a film nut, and I lived in Spain as a kid, so it stood out to me. Taylor and Sam have not seen it. I'm pushing this for movie night tonight. Thank you!

    About to marry into a throuple

    Thanks so much. We do, in fact, have a counselor we meet with (at moment) monthly. And we might up that at your advice! I totally agreed that things will get trickier as we go. We do have a prenup and other legal contracts set up ahead of time. As for expenses, we are doing a hybrid. Everyone...

    About to marry into a throuple

    Fight resolved btw, and in a way where I think we all three learned something about communication, apologies, and how different people heal from disagreements.

    About to marry into a throuple

    I more or less agree with all of this. Our three strengths are: 1) no long standing existing relationship, so no third wheel feelings (yet), 2) all very similar personalities (not that couples need to be, but I think it can help when navigating three), 3) we are aware of all that is stacked...

    About to marry into a throuple

    Different type of advice... How to be the third in a triad while the other two are having a fight? We all get along so well, do so much together, that there's never been more than a momentary squabble resolved in minutes. I've always known that would change eventually. Couples fight. It's...

    About to marry into a throuple

    I completely get this, and don't think it's impossible that we'll get burned and feel the same way. I think we are mature enough to be aware of that. But, for now, based on the more traditional beliefs we *do* have, we want to give it a try. And hope we can make it work. Aren't all...

    About to marry into a throuple

    I think 1) as we've both said, my partners and I are rare(r), and 2) it wouldn't surprise me if a lot of people who do fit in my category wouldn't feel comfortable coming on a poly board. I think that's more a situation of their own close-mindedness than a commentary on the board, but I could...

    About to marry into a throuple

    These are both good ideas. Because I like to cook serious/complex sometimes. I had romantic images of them sitting at the island while I cooked food, served it, and stood and ate on the opposite side. But the day to day reality is that's... a weekend activity. And the island isn't necessary. It...

    How many people have given up on finding their Soulmates?

    I guess I kind of don't believe in soul mates and never have. I've met a man and a woman and they are great for me, a thousand times better than anyone I ever met. They are my people and I'm happy, but neither they nor I are perfect. There is no such thing. And meanwhile, I'm not naive enough to...

    About to marry into a throuple

    So the house we are closing on has a large kitchen, large living room, and large master bedroom and en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom is only average, as is the 2nd bath, and the office is downright small. Nice outstairs balcony. The master already has two gargantuan closets, and I think is...

    This is all fair. I'll respond more fully tomorrow, but in the meantime I truly apologize if I came across too terse. That wasn't fair of me.
