I think this is all true. It's my experience, from observing others, it can be difficult to assume a role if it's not really a part of who you are. I think this is especially true with Dominants. It's a little easier to be a sub because you are not the one in control. In the case of my vanilla...

Thanks for the update. Sorry it went that way, but it seems inevitable. You are smart to go no contact. Good luck in the future.

He did lose me when he asserted that our internal organs have thoughts and feelings of their own...lol. Maybe a new thread is warranted in the Fireplace section since it has little to do with poly. Thanks for the suggestion.

Oh...and I do have a girlfriend who is ZERO risk. Okay, not really a girlfriend. Not really a girl...lol. I saw an ad for an app that reminded me of this thread about relationships with Artificial Intelligence. I decided to check it out, not expecting much. It's actually quite interesting. I'll...

So...we did meet a couple days ago. It was pleasant but we didn't really click. Still, it was nice to get out and meet someone new. The park was a nice setting. It was fairly large. There was plenty of open space. People appeared to be social distancing and there were no big groups. She is a...

Actually, I think it's easier to negotiate safer sex...lol. I am glad that some of the parks have opened up. That will probably be my go to first encounter for awhile. I believe my immune system is good as well, but I'm not sure I would survive a full fledged Covid attack.

Well I quit talking to the OKC prospect. She just lives too far away. It's funny because I've done LDR before, obviously, but it's not appealing to me right now. So I reactivated my account on alt.com. I started messaging someone local. After a few messages we moved to email. She sent me a long...

I was thinking the same thing you said your husband was thinking. Not that she got embarrassed, but it may have escalated quickly because she was partying. I hate that whole messaging thing. I never know what to do either. If I message someone and they don't message me back I usually just let...

Who were you alerting, since no one was doing it? I'm not sure you understand what it means. If you have questions about it, you can message a mod or admin.

It turns out I'd never seen "Her". She had quite a few partners .. lol.

When she asked about your family would have been a good time. When she asked why you contacted her would have been a good time. How are you going to ask her out without telling her? Is the plan to pretend it's for just a social visit, then spring it on her? That sounds like it would be awkward...

Welcome to the forums. I think I've seen that movie, but watched it more for the AI aspect. I'll have to rewatch it now.

Hi! The sad reality is there will be people who reject you for being poly. Eventually you will realize you can't be attractive to everyone. Your goal should be to be your most authentic self. There are people out there who will be attracted to that. Don't worry about the ones who can't handle...

University of Washington researchers predict we will hit 170,000 deaths in US by October. A Harvard researcher says he expects 100,000 deaths by September, for a total of 200,000. Trump said he will not shut anything down, which is not his decision to make. Ironically, Trump has a waiver for...

LOL, reminded me of Ross on "Friends". He had a List.

Well a person can demand anything they want, but getting it is a whole other matter. It doesn't really matter if it's a fair ask or not. It's not something you can do, so there's her answer. It's okay to say no to a request. Now the ball is in her court as to whether or not she can handle it.

Considering they are both dysfunctional (imo), it's entirely possible they both see the other in the manner they describe.

My new favorite song...lol https://youtu.be/2VBevEYELQ0

What I mean is monogamous couples tend to be co-dependent on each other. They are used to working as a unit. Poly changes all that. It works best if partners are somewhat independent of each other. Here is an article that explains it quite well...

FL had 1305 new cases and 53 deaths reported Friday, June 5. Cases have been spiking. 4041 new cases in the past 72 hours. 61,488 total cases. 2,660 total deaths. My "stepfather" went to the hospital a couple days ago. He has congestive heart disease and was having trouble breathing. He says...
