Honestly, the options aren't any different just because the mother is poly. She will either choose to keep the baby or not. You and her other partner may have some influence in that decision, but ultimately she will decide. As for when to perform the paternity test, I would think that should...

I hope your trip goes well, Kevin. I'm sorry you're finding it stressful...hopefully it will be enjoyable while you're there.

Wow, Atlantis. I'm sorry Mr. Exotic is showing his ass. Good for you enforcing your boundaries, though.

I've had the same experience as Magdlyn. My experience is that gay/lesbian women, in general, tend to avoid bi women....especially bi, poly women with a male partner. OTOH, while bi women will generally date other bi women, many are leery of dating a bi woman who is partnered with a man...

I am sorry, Katja. It is painful and difficult when a partnership we had thought was forever, ends. You are grieving. Anger is a natural stage of grief. It will lessen and pass eventually, with time. Be gentle with yourself! I find it helps to not judge my emotions, just observe them. Don't try...

Bluebird, you amaze me with how much you and your husbands do for your community. You are truly awesome!!! I also love how your guys do things together both with and without you. Your family is how I imagined poly could be for me when I first started dating poly. I haven't found it yet but I...

This has been my experience, too. It's easier to keep things secret if all the people are fully on board. Someone who is mono, or inexperienced at poly dating, may make agreements early on that they find they are unable or unwilling to keep once they become emotionally invested in the...

Cats like everyone's scents to be mingled. It's one of the reasons they rub up against each other and us. Anytime one of my cats goes to the vet, the other one will hiss at him or her for a day or two, until their scents are mingled again.

Honestly, I don't see that any of the things you mentioned were out of the ordinary for someone you're dating. They may have perhaps been rushing things (meeting the son, picking up at the airport), but they certainly weren't outside the norm for a couple who are dating. I also don't think...

May I ask what the motivation is for your desire to propose? It really makes a difference, imo. If the motivation is that you want to set the intention that you consider this a long-term, possibly lifelong commitment...then you can discuss that without proposing. Or, maybe you're just...

While I can't say that I've been with any women who didn't want to orgasm, I have been with men who prefer not to. In one case, it's because he has difficulty staying hard...by not climaxing, he believes he increases his chance of maintaining his erection (it seemed to work.) The other case is...

In my experience, the more comfortable i became with my partner dating, the less need or desire i had for rules or guidelines. In the beginning, I did want to meet his partners before they became too serious. It wasn't a rule, just a preference. And it only happened a few times and not even...

You're doing great, Atlantis. It may not feel like it, but I see progress. No one who knows how Prof treats you will think you're horrible for breaking up with him while he's sick. Besides, he has 2 needy, drama queen gfs to keep him busy. :rolleyes:

The thing is, it's not the sex with the other guy that brought on the growth, it's the communication, compromise, and vulnerability that brought on the growth. The sex with the other guy was just the catalyst for those things. Respecting your husband's boundaries in regards to this guy will...

Is it possible to start your date with Whiskers early? Then you could have alone time and sex with Whiskers while not tired? Go to the play after?

Coffee can be the highlight of my day, too, lol. My new favorite is a turtle mocha that a local coffee house makes. It's like turtle candy in coffee form. Very yummy!

I'm sorry about your cat, too, Atlantis :( You have so much on your plate right now. ((Hugs))
