2:34 p.m., Thursday the 14th BH, SB, and the dogs got home early, maybe about 15 minutes ago. I won't have to fix my own dinner, but alas I won't have cereal. Last night I cooked the potato too long in the microwave, it wasn't big enough for seven minutes, I should have set it for five. Some of...

Greetings lovablecherry, Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc. It's great to have you with us, I am glad you have had a positive experience with poly so far. If you invest some time reading and posting on our various threads and boards, you will be able to connect with...

Hi Cavefox, You have to consider the extremity of how bad Fern treated you. There are limits to how bad a metamour treats you before Daisy breaks up with them. Also you have to consider that the Daisy-Fern relationship isn't good for Daisy because Fern is abusive towards Daisy. So she should...

Hi YTID, If someone is not physically attractive to me, there is a word for the kind of relationship I can have with them, it is called friends. I don't have an articulable definition of what's attractive to me, there is a range of looks that I might find attractive. There are also people I...

12:02 p.m., Wednesday the 13th Dinner last night was heavenly. There was enough milk left in the dish to have seconds. Definitely works for me. Today I got up earlier than usual, just didn't feel like staying in bed. Not much else to tell you at this point, this concludes my riport.

Hello Cavefox, I just want to say how sorry I am that you are in such a difficult situation. F has treated you horribly, and your wife is in the wrong for not breaking up with F. It would be different if F was getting help for her psychological problems, but of course narcissists never seek...

Hello Martmak, I don't know what all you have tried in your search, there are poly-friendly dating sites, Feeld and OKCupid are two that I know of. You have something very specific in mind, so naturally finding it will be challenging. Keep trying, and have the patience of Job. Regards, Kevin T.

1:42 p.m., Tuesday the 12th SB made me a salad before she left, so that was my dinner last night. Spinach leaves, tomatoes, boiled eggs, shredded cheese, blue cheese dressing. Tonight I'll probably have cereal for dinner, Cap'n Crunch. I picked it out while grocery shopping on Sunday. Something...

Hello evolvingsprout, Sorry your friend is distancing herself from you. It seems to me that if she (along with her husband) is polyamorous, she should be okay with her husband dating someone else (you). Obviously she is not okay. I'm not sure that polyamory is a good fit for her. In the...

Hello littlelaguna, It is hard enough to have two partners and give both a fair shake, three partners is even harder. I would expect things to change with your routine with him, you were getting half of his time, now you will get one third. You have to decide if that is something you can live...

11:38 a.m., Monday the 11th For dinner last night, SB made us turkeyburgers and salads; after dinner, she and I went grocery shopping. Today, BH and SB will leave with the dogs, to go on a trip until Thursday. I can't remember if there was an event the dogs were going to, or if it's just a...

I reckon he was compatible with you for a short-term relationship, but not so much for a long-term relationship. I don't intend to make either of you out to be the bad guy, I think you both tried. Yes, there were things he did and said that were odd. But I would need to hear his side of the...

1:32 p.m., Sunday the 10th In addition to the nursery, we checked out a couple of estate sales, and resale shops. We ate at a local restaurant, it was called "Grandma's K&I Diner," it was really good. We were so full that we decided not to eat dinner later on, we just had crackers and meat and...

Hello Kathrin, NRE always messes with your mind, you are losing NRE for your partner just as you are gaining NRE for the new connection, so the contrast is very stark. What you have to do is, in spite of your feelings, set aside time to spend with your partner and just go through the motions...

No doubt if you were female, he would have much longer-lasting interest in his relationship with you, these are not things we choose, and as you said, he is more into group activities whereas you are more into one-on-one things. I think you and he were a really good match in the beginning, but...

Hello jimmyfresno, I think you are emotionally invested in this friend, more so than how invested he is in you. There does seem to be an NRE factor here with him: When the NRE died down, he lost interest in you. I know that's probably hard to hear. I suggest investing less in him going forward...

6:58 a.m., Saturday the 9th For dinner last night SB made us salads, also we had the leftover Chinese takeout, and the rest of BH's birthday cake for dessert. Today, we are going on a road trip with Stan. We are going to some kind of a nursery place, I guess it's called "Plants of the...

Greetings Farrokh, If you are at least 18 years old, please feel free to lurk, browse, etc. Sincerely, Kevin T., "official greeter" :)

2:19 p.m., Friday the 8th Dinner was rather late last night, so instead of the enchilada casserole, SB ordered Chinese takeout for us, via DoorDash I think. Eddie's groomer spied a possible flea, so I think SB wanted to get the house extra clean. Given Eddie's breed, his fur is supposed to be...
