    The story of Spork.

    wow that is a lot to deal with! May I ask why only your younger son and not the older one too? And I hope that for some of the financial mess you are taking steps to limit your responsibility for his debt - ie, cancelling the cards, moving your name off the house etc. I have sadly come to...

    Way to leave me hanging... or "I don't want to be Poly anymore" (long)

    I'm ready to tell more of my story. After reading many of the threads and stories here, I feel I'm in the right place to talk this through and hopefully find some kind of answers or at least the ability to feel less sad/angry/annoyed/ hopeful in a continual loop. I've lived my entire life...

    The story of Spork.

    Ah Spork - I can feel the sadness emanating from this post! Feeling like that is definitely not love and he is very very bitter indeed! Really the fact that he and all his current entourage are still there is proof of your care and humaneness. I'd have kicked them all out by now, or moved out...

    I take it then that the jealousy springs mostly from the intensity of their time together since it's so sporadic. There must be a growing excitement as the time gets closer, and I assume that little else makes it into her thoughts (or words?) the closer it gets. And I assume you have to deal...

    Hello everyone!

    Welcome Goldilocks! Your relationship with A sounds wonderful! I'd also not know how to open up the discussion with kids, but I like the idea of it being an ongoing discussion. Since the poly concept is fairly new to me (as is my potential bisexuality) I've started discussing the concepts...

    Hello!

    Thank you for your kind words. We hit a bit of a bump here the last few days, but he seems to be trying so very hard to come to grips with this all. (The man jokingly refers to my mid life crisis) Today is not a good day, but I'm trying to move forward, not dwell on what is probably never...

    I have NRE and I haven't met anyone yet!!

    Hi Elise and welcome :) It sounds as though this is something you both want, which means it's more likely to be a fun and exciting adventure of learning, growth and increased love for both of you. I hope it will be everything you need and desire!

    Question on Mono partners acceptance

    A question for partners who identify as monogamous, or for those with partners who are either monogamous with you or still figuring out what Poly means to them... How long did/does it take you to understand and accept your partner's poly identity? Is there a process to the acceptance? Is there...

    Hi!

    All three of our kids are huge fans of all the shows you mentioned. They are well versed in the ways of the geek - it's a given with their parentage. LOL Also, Harry Potter, Marvel and DC Superheroes, and Terry Pratchett (awesome bedtime stories actually). Our youngest walks around imitating...

    Greetings and Salutations

    Spork, you can try a variety of fruits, strawberries, bananas, kiwi fruit, orange segments... All good :) Thanks for the support, I've done a lot of soul searching, I just want to be authentically me.. I really want to be content in my skin and feel relatively happy with life.

    Greetings and Salutations

    Oh LOL!! I'm still just a baby dom... Still learning... And he is still learning to not argue back ;) so this support is totally outside the realm of that... Lol. But I find it comes so easily to me and he loves it when she comes out to play too. Both these new concepts have brought so much...
