Certainly! Our pleasure. You seem like good people. :) We have a poly blog over at www.theordinaryextraordinary.com -- and you can always contact us there, or here. It's always good to meet other mindful poly people. :) Cheers, Alan & Anna

Lovely to make your acquaintance! :) - Alan and Anna

Welcome welcome! We're planning an eventual move to western Mass and it's good to hear about mindful poly people like you in the neighborhood. :) There are a couple of warmhearted poly groups in New England and it sounds like you'd hit it off with the members of those. Again: welcome...

Welcome! And you have our condolences as well on the loss of your husband. We've been together 17 years and can't imagine the immensity of the loss of such a partner. And we hope the past seven years have given you solace and healing. Your comments about communication: perfect, wonderful...

Hello, Amanda! And welcome! Sorry to hear you can't find sources of support nearby -- but you can certainly find it here. Feel free to ask questions here and you're bound to get answers. As for finding sources of support, below are a few good places to start...

Thanks again, Kevin, for being so welcoming. And we hope to get to know more of the goodhearted poly people here . . . we'd love that. Cheers, everyone! ~Alan and Anna :)

They're definitely poly-friendly. Just not as full of poly people as some might think. :) And San Diego is very conservative/Republican.....so that's not great.

Cheers, sir! Also wondering . . . are there many southern California people here on the site? (Feel free to say howdy!) We know some poly people are kicking around SoCal -- and some are active in poly activism -- but they mostly don't seem to be here. And, truth be told, SoCal has fewer poly...

It may be a little while until we finally make the move.....but we'll certainly let you know what's what down the line. :) We expect good stuff.

Last year the hosts of the Professor Blastoff podcast put out a call for topic and guest suggestions. Alan was listening and he realized that the show had never done anything on missing limbs, etc.—so maybe they’d like Anna as a guest. So we wrote up an email: about Anna’s body and her use of...

Thanks, Kevin! As for the Berkshires/western Mass ... it seems like there would be a thriving poly community there. Liberal, guileless, thoughtful people -- and lots of liberal arts colleges nearby. We hope that there is....and need to investigate that a bit more. And thanks for the lovely...

Hi nycindie! We don't recall that when we joined -- 4 years ago -- the guideline on having separate usernames for separate individuals was there. Our apologies if it was. As with our blog, we truly do write together. Alan will be doing the majority of the typing, it's true, but as with our...

Cheers, Kevin! We wanted to get more involved here -- and in other polyamory ways, in real life and online -- to do our part in getting polyamory more seen and understood by more people and help it gain simple acceptance. We want to share our experience but more importantly to help others and...

We're Alan and Anna. Together 17 years, polyamorous for 14. We have closed FMF triads -- polyfidelity. Alan's straight, Anna's bi. We're in our late 30s. We live in Costa Mesa, in southern California. And we plan on one day relocating to New England, probably western Massachusetts. We've...

First, sorry for the PLN misunderstanding. We posted the notice here and at the PLN -- and the post should have read "here or at the PLN . . ." Sorry for that. RfromRMC -- thanks for the lovely words. And for clarifying things about our relationship status for the others. Cheers to you --...

We posted an IAmA on Reddit: "IAmA polyamorous couple who've had committed triad (FMF) relationships for over a decade. AMA." (The AMA, for those who don't know Reddit, stands for Ask Me Anything.) If anyone here at the PLN feels like popping in and taking a look, you'll find it here...

Welcome welcome! If there's one thing we've found in our years in the poly community it's that it exists everywhere and in every form. Hopefully you can find a place within your current community that satisfies you . . . at least maybe until circumstances take you elsewhere. :) But...

Thanks so much! Very sweet. :) Cheers, and be well, A&A

So we've been here for awhile and thought we'd share our site -- it has our blog (since 2007) and is the home for the book we wrote "The Ordinary Extraordinary: Polyamory as Lived by One Couple." We wanted to share with all the lovely people here and would love to hear from you, either through...

Cheers, CielDuMatin and MonoVCPHG! Glad you're enjoying. :)
