    Converting for the purposes of a relationship?

    In his religion, intimate relationships between girls aren't considered "real." He and his wives are technically a closed relationship, and the relationships between the wives are simply overlooked by the church as harmless female bonding. Male homosexuality and adultery are condemned. This...

    Goodbyes feeling really bad

    That would be bothersome, but if it isn't intended to be a permanent goodbye, I think you could make the situation work for you. I lived with this while my ex was married to a woman who hated me. We couldn't talk, we lived hundreds of miles apart, and it hurt. Contact was sporadic. I...

    Converting for the purposes of a relationship?

    I'm facing a decision regarding my future and possibly getting involved with my exBF that I am very close to. I’m leaning in the direction of joining his family. I’ve been in love with him for 15 years, and I suspect that my GF#1 is in love with his first wife and that their relationship is...

    Goodbyes feeling really bad

    I just can't do goodbyes. It doesn't work out for me. Obviously, if a relationship went badly then no contact is easy, but if I care about someone I just can't give it up. I was engaged to my ex many years ago, and I was the one who terminated the romantic relationship. Over a decade...

    Religion, politics, sex .. and other taboo subjects

    Yes, you correctly identified a passive-aggressive gambit. It's my style. :) For me, I tend to reject the Left-Right paradigm as something conceived by the wealthy powers behind the throne. I look at both the Democrats and the Republicans as being wealthy control freaks cut from the same...

    New and need advice...

    I totally understand being scared. I was apprehensive when my GF#1 told me that she couldn't live without the girl who is now my GF#2. I had only had one partner at a time. I wasn't in love with GF#2, but we were friends. I accepted her into our bed because I thought I was going to lose my...

    Victim of abuse ends up abusing

    I grew up with abusive parents, so I can identify with how you feel. When you are around abuse long enough, you internalize it as an acceptable way of acting, even if you know in your mind that it isn't right. If the situation occurs where you are in control, it is possible to become the thing...

    New and making a decision

    Not just six adults. My ex has several kids too. I am sort of an aunt to them, as are my GFs. It is something I really enjoy. Part of me wants kids of my own, but part of me is afraid I would be a terrible mother. But that is kind of a moot point since I am physically unable to have...

    New and making a decision

    clarification OK, a bit of clarification now that I've had some time to think. My current relationship is considered a "triad" I guess. The three of us are all with each other, and nobody outside. But this is getting more complicated. My exBF from years ago and I are still very close. I've...

    New and making a decision

    I'm new to the idea of poly. I'm an established professional, early 30's female. I have two beautiful girlfriends who I absolutely adore. I don't really consider that being "poly" (more like bigamy, I guess) but if I choose to add more to that relationship, what are the possible forms that...
