    question on dating sites

    Also worth saying, in a thread about advice for dating sites: "being attractive" and "being good at texting" are both skills that people can improve at! 🙂

    question on dating sites

    "Feels like I've treated you like a human being for long enough—we fuck now, right?" High quality. :LOL:

    Thoughts on this journey

    I've come up with an expression for the endless series of posts (most on reddit, sometimes on here) I read about people blundering into a new relationship structure they don't want, or think they want but are clearly mistaken, or are trying to cram down their partner's throat (since it's usually...

    I'm sorry to hear this, Evie. Hang in there, I hope you get the support you need soon. ❤️

    10 year marriage with possibilities to open up?

    Would it be accurate to say your wife wants to have sex with other people when she travels, but does not want your neighbour to even touch you in a non-sexual way? Because that seems rather... unfair.

    Handling financial differences

    I think you are focusing on information about a person, whereas a large part of compatibility is discovered through sharing experiences with a person, and it's hard to do that without spending months in a relationship. But you seem very determined to convince total strangers that our...

    Handling financial differences

    While it's wonderful to have the financial resources to help someone you care about, please consider that two months is simply not enough time to really know each other, or have any idea about whether and what you're compatible for in the future. And providing substantial financial support...

    Thoughts on this journey

    It's so weird being on a forum that both has a community of people sharing vulnerable parts of their lives and supporting each other, and simultaneously has these incredibly cringe "looking for feeeeeemaaaaale" posts from the fuckboiest fuckbois imaginable. It's such a weird dichotomy. 😝

    Thoughts on this journey

    Went on a couple dates with a couple new people this week, and they were lovely (both the people and the dates). Having nice, friendly interactions with Maple. At the moment, all is well, relationshipwise. And I'm trying to turn my focus to other things in my life, too, for a change. 😂 Also...

    Are my only options to lose my husband, or stay mono?

    This is an important observation.

    Are my only options to lose my husband, or stay mono?

    Yeah, "Yo hubs, I don't want to be the one who has to break up with you, so instead I'm just gonna start doing this thing you can't stand until YOU break up with ME" is not, like, ultra-mega kind and loving behaviour towards your spouse. Can't remember where I read this recently, but exposure...

    Thoughts on this journey

    I've collected so many board games, mostly from crowdfunding (a college friend of mine got me hooked 😂). Yet I don't really have a gaming crew where I live. It would be nice to have one or two people to regularly sit down and play these cooperative, campaign-style games with. ...and while...

    Are my only options to lose my husband, or stay mono?

    I'm sorry, stranger, but you said and also From what I can tell, you see yourself as polyamorous. It sounds like it's a serious, crucial part of who you are. Your husband sees himself as monogamous, apparently to the same degree (e.g. has panic attacks when you mention polyamory, feels like...

    So I got back in touch with Maple yesterday, feeling ready to try being friends via text, and we've exchanged some friendly messages. Feels good so far.

    I broke an agreement, now what?

    This sounds like a very stressful situation. I feel for you, stranger. It sounds like you're trying pretty hard to control your partners' reactions—not posting a photo Tina asked you to post because Kate might be jealous, not being entirely honest with Tina when explaining why you weren't...

    Thoughts on this journey

    Feeling pretty much back to normal. Nice, relaxing weekend. Couple dates set up for next week. Easing into summer will be nice. There's a kink thing I could travel to in late June, but I'm not convinced I want to go. A lot of logistics and expense to hang out with strangers for the weekend. Such...

    Happy pride month...?

    An admirable notion. But I would argue Pride isn't "about inclusivity" in a general, context-free way; Pride exists to acknowledge, support, and celebrate the experience and ongoing struggle of marginalized groups. Are people who choose polyamorous relationships marginalized? I don't know...
