Biology lesson, please! :)

Ahaha what a great surprise!! And a hilarious resolution to this whole puzzle. Reminds me of a story I heard about my grandma. My granddad was planning a surprise party at lunchtime. In the morning he thought it would be funny to pretend to have forgotten her bday altogether. My grandma dropped...

I've been using a DivaCup for over 15 years now at least. I've found it great! Is this your first menstrual cup? I have never had a trouble with fit, though I bought the bigger cup after having kids. Hope it works out well for you. The savings add up quickly, I found.

This makes me wonder what "fair" for you would mean. In my world, fair is not about equivalence in the monetary (or nominally monetary) "worth" of something, but rather about things like needs, capacity, effort. In a household, do we all feel like we're "pitching in" as we are able? When it...

Maybe you could trade some family time another weekend when Boy is visiting so you can hang out with him on Saturday after you finish work and into Sunday as well. Also it might show appreciation to Boy to pay petrol or something to say thanks if he's coming all the way to just babysit for one...

11.30pm and I'm exhausted. Was a tiring day today. Had a work thing crop up (a client of our service is also a friend so got sucked into a work thing via them). Don't resent it but used up some of my me-time on that, so not much left. Gnome is progressing well. He seems to be transitioning...

Oh god, so sorry for the loss of your two kittens. Hope that your others stay well (and your cats too, based on Dagferi's comment above). It's obvious you give these animals a high level of care. Whatever happens, they would be in good hands at your house with the best possible outcome.

Sorry to hear of your childhood trauma. I am not sure if you were suggesting that as a reason to be together... If so: I don't see the connection. Unfortunately there are many people with childhood trauma, and it is possible you could meet multiple people with similar stories to yours. That...

A paid subscription helps if you are actively searching. I have used paid and free. Free works but is slower because you are somewhat limited to replying to people who message you rather than people who just like your profile (you can't see the likes unless it's a mutual like or they send you a...

DarthSidious - guess you really wanted to talk about your passive income investment as you've resurrected a three-year-old thread :p You can always start a new topic thread, e.g. in Fireplace.

Sounds like she's already given you an opening to discuss your motivations in contacting her again. I would be upfront asap over text. Something like: "to be honest, I contacted you again as I still feel attraction to you. Although I appreciate we don't know each other anymore as it has been so...

My recollection is that many people disagreed with some aspects of your definition. This forum has had so many "is this poly" conversations. The "no true polying" 'rule' you refer to is probably the dislike people have of "one true wayism" i.e. people like yourself who have certain fixed...

Thanks PinkPig, Mags, Vicki and Evie! Breastfeeding is going well thanks, Mags. I was actually thinking of you as I remember you having a background in lactation support. Fortunately (for me now) I had some breastfeeding challenges with Fern which I was able to overcome with help from lactation...

It does sound like Spitfire is low-level dating (scouting the field) as well as looking to learn about poly, which might be putting unnecessary pressure on this stage of your exploration. Dealing with the theory of poly itself seems hard enough for you without an extra layer of processing her...

Glad you have come to a positive place with Jim on this. One thing I'd suggest is to have a timeline for a future poly conversation that isn't about you being interested in a new person. I.e. we will revisit this in X months / years, but pause conversation for now. It makes the discussion less...

Oooh, how exciting. And what a quick turn around. Enjoy your night :)

Bub is here! We only had to stay a day in hospital, which was fortunate because they only allowed one support person / visitor per person (Covid restrictions). As Lobe was my support person for labour, Ocean couldn't see me in hospital until I was discharged. And no children are allowed to visit...

Hoping for the best for Rainee. So sorry if her condition worsens. Fingers crossed for you here

Woohoo! Confirmation at last

A therapist?
