A few of my friends were discussing fluid bonding and poly. And it got me curious how other people deal with it. How do you approach the idea of fluid bonding (no condoms/barriers during sexual acts) within your relationships? How do you discuss the topic with your partner(s), with their...

So my boyfriend, his wife and I are trying to find a calendar app that we can share. By share I mean it's one account/calendar that we can all see and add info. My metamour is the first to admit that she does not have a great memory and will forget about plans. This has lead to being double...

Hello, welcome from one Edmontonian to another :) There's a pretty good poly community in Edmonton. There's polyamory Edmonton that has a monthly potluck and often a monthly meet and greet too. They have a Facebook page. There's also a large cross over with the kink community, so they have a...

Wow, the judgement of people with mental illness is disgusting here. It's one thing to admit that you don't know how to help someone and admit that you can't handle being with someone who has a mental illness. That's fine, we all have things we can't deal with. But calling them mad, crazies...

Polyamorous people are still capable of cheating. The difference between cheaters and poly people is that people who cheat are not honest about all their sexual/romantic relationships, whereas polyamory is typically built on honesty about them. If one of my poly partners started having sex...

I personally don't see the issue with the age difference. There is 5, 10 and 11 years between me and my partners. My parents have 15 years between them and are still happily together. If both people in the relationship (your husband and this "friend") are comfortable with the age gap and get...

So I have my girlfriend, and my boyfriend, and I am friends with his wife. My girlfriend and my boyfriend's wife also like each other and are involved on a more casual basis. My boyfriend and my girlfriend don't actually know each other that well but we'd like to change that. I believe in my...

Differentiating types of attraction can seem a bit odd, but for us that fall into the asexual spectrum for our sexual orientation, it's totally normal. Romantic attraction is simply who you fall in love with. For a lot of people, sexual and romantic orientations are the same. For others they...

So I've started dating an awesome guy. I was already friends with him, his wife and I am "Aunty" Maygen to their kids. I won't lie, I'm totally having major NRE (but taking steps to avoid rhe negatives associated with it) but I do see the possibility of this being a long term relationship. So...

Hey Cookie. I'm very doubtful there is another quite like me :P So yep, you know me haha. Thanks for the welcome :)

I liked that this was more inclusive, such as in areas of gender, and sexual and romantic orientations. However, a change I would suggest would be for the question "How would you describe your polyamourus relationship? >Heigherarchical >Non-Heierarchical" In one relationship I would...

I figured I may as well do a intro :) My name is Maygen. I'm from Alberta, Canada (yes, it's cold haha). I've been polyamorous all my life, without knowing the proper term for it. My first girlfriend also had a boyfriend who was also my friend. I tried the monogamous route for a few years and...
