I hadn't really considered these. Thank you, Kevin!

Looking forward to trying out these suggestions. Thank you, Bobbi!

I think I understand this on a conceptual level, but I'm not exactly sure how to implement. Perhaps give an example? I'm not sure how to get around to ‘I would like if you/we do/did xyz’ without instantly indicating that something is, at the very least, askew in the relationship. Or am I...

This must be so frustrating after the ride with Elijah. I sympathise. Thank you for sharing.

I love this! Having to function in the rest of reality after unwrapping conflict is indeed so exhausting. We’ll work together to find time we know we don't have pressing obligations immediately after. Thank you for the resources. I guess I said scared because I really am hesistant, but it’s...

Hi, guys! I’ve really been enjoying perusing the resources on here; some comforting, all eye-opening. It’s all stuff I could never find on social media or on the first page of google and I am so so grateful for this wonderful well I’ve fallen down filled with treasure. However, I have a...

Merci!

It’s a little more complicated than that. My feelings about the lack of excitement between us and his active search are very recent, and in my opinion, tied to his recent experience of some NRE which is pretty much a first throughout the lifespan of our relationship. Otherwise, he wasn't very...

If I may ask, what was this like for Elijah? Was he seeing other people? Did he ever express being stressed out by being your only ‘partner’ in that sense? Did you practice anything that made it easier for him? I’m guessing that you lived far away enough from each other that getting overwhelmed...

I’ve recently had this feeling gnawing at me and didn't understand what it was let alone have the words. Thank you so much! Do you have any advice/recommendations regarding how to bring this up with my partner? References will also be awesome. My partner receives information better when I can...

This perspective seems a little more…acceptable as it is a reality that the heights of monogamous relationships cannot save you from. Thank you, @Bobbi !

I think that possibilities like this play a big part in why I’m so anxious about polyamory practice. While I understand on a conceptual level, the reality of such an instance, even if I do my best to expect it, is a little harder than is simply being conveyed here. How do you navigate such a...

Hi, @Bobbi . Thank you to you and @GalaGirl for your contributions. I agree wholeheartedly with most of what I’ve read so far. I've also realised that being asked to trust a person has quite the opposite effect on me. I might not have been distrustful until I’m particularly told to exercise trust.

Gracias, Kevin!

Hi, everyone. I don't really know what to say about myself for now that isn't already in my profile, so I’m just jumping right in and hope someone will indulge me. I'm in my first, solid, consistent relationship ever, let alone one in polyamorous practice — and it’s held strong for almost 2...
