Hi all, just got back on here after a day away and loved the weird conversation that grew from all of that...frubbly, wibbly, Dr. Who, something about Shirley Temple...? Very weird and funny! But, yes, TGIG, I'm happy with my choice, but being happy with something does not always make it easy...

I've never enjoyed labeling, but I understand that it makes communication across complex ideas much simpler. For us, "mono" and "poly" work just fine.

Hey, thanks CielDuMatin! My bottom line is definitely being met and I'm very happy. I'm sure there are others who have made the choices that I have, and for similar if not exactly the same reasons. Its just nice to connect with those folks, now and then.

Hey, its cool. I understand where you're coming from and I love that you feel really passionately about all of it.

All of your responses are really appreciated and wonderful. Thank you. NYCindie, thank you for the warm welcome! I lurk here often because I really enjoy reading all of the stories, posts, advice, and anecdotes that you folk offer up to each other. I'm often silent because I'm not practicing...

GalaGirl, thanks for the lengthy response and for sharing some of your story with me. PLove and I have a great marriage, also, and while I do not have anyone else but her as a partner, we also have a healthy, ongoing conversation about all of it and how we both retain the option of opening up...

Anyone else here in the same proverbial boat? It's not a bad place to be, although it's not always easy or comfortable. I come on here once in awhile to read posts and stories that speak to my own experiences with polyamory. Some of you remember me and PLove from back in the day. We decided...

Hard to find, certainly. I would welcome you to the forum but I am not on here enough to be of any real standing, so I will simply say "Hello! Good morning!" to you. PLove and I were seeking a couple last year. We had some great experiences but never could make the couple thing work. Too many...

Very nice to be thought of, thank-you! I hope it was a good thread that painted me in a positive light? We haven't moved yet but we are aggressively building the social, economic, and spiritual structures that will support our new life. I'm taking a graduate certificate course in Diversity...

So nice to see all of you still here, working through things, and supporting each other!

Thanks...just joined and posted.

Appreciate all of your input and suggestions, folks. ;)

I think a small, rustic cottage or ranch located about 20 minutes outside a small, rural town is my fantasy. Close to woods and water, off the beaten path but close enough for us to connect to people when we really want to. A place where we have the option of being hermits for a week or so if we...

Completely nothing to do with polyamory... But... My wife and are considering leaving the hustle and flow of the city and finding a nice, rural town to live in somewhere. We're both professionals with careers that can take root pretty much anywhere there are human beings, so we're good on that...

I appreciate all of you sharing and responding. Thank you. :D

Thanks, but what is POF?

Intentional vs. Natural Connection I keep feeling like, for my wife and me to go looking for other poly people to connect with, is somehow disingenuous. I mean, for both of us, all of our romantic connections have always started from the most accidental and NON-romantic situations with people...

HAHA. Next time you come to Philly, let me and PLove know.

I'm like you, Mags. Arousal demands release, or I just get stupid.

I like cats. Cats cuddle. And really big, slavering dogs are good cuddlers, also. :D Babies? Kids? Meh. I always feel anxious and scared about breaking them, so I usually try to give them back ASAP lol.
