Great, thoughtful responses. Thank you. Black Unicorn, I especially like your sociological approach. I agree the differences and permutations are varied and critical.

Great vids. Thanks!

Talking about in humans specifically. I mean, from a practical, survival kind of standpoint, having more than 2 people in a relationship seems really beneficial. But there also seems to be a number, a tipping point as it were, where the relationship would be too large and clunky, at least with...

Monogamy...huh? So, I know the question has been asked a dozen times on this forum (although I couldn't really find them... although I didn't look very hard, either...). But where exactly did the concept of monogamy even come from? Not saying it's wrong or anything, but just curious as to why...

Not sure, but seems we are moving in that direction. If nothing else, then we are opening our marriage to the possibilities.

Hi everyone, PLove and I are making a serious attempt at quitting smoking. She is using the patch and I'm going cold turkey. Heard about herbal cigarettes. Have any of you ever used them, know someone that used them? Any advice or observations about their effectiveness? :confused:

You are actually awesome for this single post. :D

Welcome to the board, Handmaiden. So...what are you questioning? Are you married? Why are you questioning it? What's happened recently in your life to break you open, change the flow of your energy and perception, and make you ask whether eating the fruit will really kill you or if you should...

Welcome to the board, JuicyLish. You know, I was reading your intro post and thought it sounds like you're just doing what a lot of women I've come in contact with are doing, and that's sort of playing the field the way guys do. I don't mean this in a bad way at all, mind you. But having...

This may be off topic, but I've seen a few of your posts and they are really interesting. My wife and I are becoming more and more interested in a triad with a, well... unicorn. But how does that happen? I mean, this time it was an 11th hour save after a trainwreck that was mostly my own fault...

Well, if nothing else this entire experience has opened Plove and me up to new parts of ourselves, each other, and our relationship. We have always tried to focus on growing together, not apart. I've found a new love and deeper appreciation for the sacred woman she is through all of this. Her...

There is a great scene in the movie Fight Club when the main character, played by Ed Norton, has a life-changing self-realization. His face fills the screen, big the way gods are big, and his voiceover says, "Ladies and Gentlemen, please return your seats to the full, upright position." In that...

Ah, my dear wife. She just told me about this post and I had to laugh. Always several steps ahead of me. Anyway, let me clarify. My gf and I never actually had sex in any form, but our connection and interactions were still romantic. My wife's willingness to meet with the "other woman," and...

Well, dinner did not happen. What did happen was that my wife decided that she is not open to having a poly relationship, and that, if I were to pursue one, she would have to leave my life. I'm not surprised that this was her response, considering what I know about her and the screwed-up way I...

Thanks for all of you responses. It actually may not happen on Sunday, as we keep having ongoing conversations about it. One day my wife is open to it, the next day her fears about it make her shut down and fall back into the old either/or paradigm that we've always lived in. Maybe I'm just...

I find myself here by accident. Sort of. Or maybe I was always headed in this direction and now I need some advice from you august ladies and gentleman. I'm married, 7 years, great wife, good marriage. My wife and I went through a really bad time last year. My heart fractured. I fell in love...

My wife and I actually aren't polyamorous but its been a fascination of mine for years. We've discussed the possibility of opening our marriage but that's a really distant star in our sky, right now. I do believe that people can love more than one person at a time and I'm really interested in...
