B has 4 aged 8-19. I have 2 aged 8-10 but they aren't here as often. That is the condition that she has. Tbh I know she has been on dating sites a while and has had odd dates here and there over the last year but this guy came along right around the time we were having arguments over...

The mental illnesses we both have are long term, and in B's case, it's especially severe. Self harm and worse have been a problem, and I've had to help her through that during her poly journey before, which was scary. I'm worried what will happen if this guy doesn't want what she does. (She's...

Yeah, I definitely think she overdid things and is now coming down hard from it all. There are people I talk to, yeah. But my friend group I actually get real contact not online with is rather small, and all of them are friends with us both, so I don't want to say anything negative about B to...

Thank you. It's hard still, atm, as I want to comfort her, but it feels strange comforting her for being sad about someone else, and the knock-on effect that has on us. I'm just stuffing my feelings in a box to be there for her when she needs it. She has bad mental health issues and that...

B is struggling today. I think it's a combination of the intensity of the weekend, seeing all three of us at different times, wearing off, the evening with new guy not going 100% to plan, missing him already, as they aren't sure when they are next together, and also her eldest was very...

Well, that was a bit awkward! I messaged to let B know I was on the way home, as agreed, and despite her phone being on loud it didn't make a sound. (She got another message once I was home and that didn't either, so not an excuse, but genuine.) So as a result, I have now met new guy! It was...

She's checked in a couple of times with me this evening and just messaged to ask if I want a pizza ordered, as they are getting one. My initial reaction was no, as it's a physical reminder of the fact she's spending the evening with him, but she asked if I was sure and I thought, actually, yeah...

We met up with B's other partner and spent yesterday and this morning together/them alone together for a bit. It was good to see him again, as it's been over 6 months apart, and the smile on B's face was lovely. I'm on the way to work now and the new guy is coming over to our house for the...

She's been practicing polyamory for around 5 years, but her ex was very controlling and abusive in the marriage and so it wasn't really until just before we met that she properly started. I like the sound of ERI. That's a nice way to look at it.

So...we met at a sex club over three years ago when she was there with her other partner. Neither of us had been to that event before. Neither of us were looking for anything more than a good time. But, as stupid as it sounds, given the location, I instantly fell for her and knew I had to speak...

The rest of the evening was a lot of fun and we came home feeling a bit more like the old us. I know that won't necessarily stay that way for long, but it's nice to know we can still have that when the effort is put in. I had one minor wobble, but reflected pretty quickly and realised I was...

So, date night nearly didn't happen. She's been feeling under the weather, and her sister has been admitted to hospital tonight with a chest infection. So she's understandably distracted and down. I'm trying my best to cheer her up. She's been messaging the new guy in the car on the way out...

I'll try and not take everything to heart. I understand that she's excited, etc., and I'm maybe being over-sensitive at times. We've never been in the position where someone is properly looking like joining the dynamic before, and I'm definitely finding that way harder than being the one that...

I was planning on trying to avoid saying anything at all about it tonight. I'm desperate to ask 1000 questions, but I don't want all our quality time to just be talking about someone else. I think part of why I'm struggling is I see the NRE she's having and it reminds me that we don't have that...

Thank you. I just read through it and that sounds like exactly what I'm.going through and how it feels I'm being treated. I'll try and find a good time to bring it up with her and show her it, without it becoming an "ambush," etc.

Thank you. I've spoken to her about not being present already and she told me she was sorry and would try harder, but nothing seems to have changed. I've tried talking about my feelings since this new relationship started, but she says I'm just making her feel shit by pointing out all her...

Hi everyone. My partner and I have been together just over 3 years. She is poly. I had only been in mono relationships up until meeting her. I had been ENM for several years prior to us meeting, and still am now. She already had a partner when we met, but due to geographical issues, he isn't...
