    Horrific Story in the NY Times

    Not just horrible in a very real, abusive way but, it is like the worst kind of exposure of polyamory possible :( Some extracts of the article: Full story here http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/12/nyregion/a-live-in-love-triangle-ends-in-a-beating-death.html?_r=0

    This is really good advice!

    A Unicorn's Dilemma

    First of all, you are not a Unicorn so don't worry, Unicorns are expected TO develop feelings (albeit with each of the members of a couple equally). It looks a bit more like they are treating you as a FWB, but you live with them and emotions can make things very bad for you if things go South...

    How to handle being vetoed or being on the bad end of an ultimatum

    That is kind of what I was referring to both on here and on the 'first date' thread. I wonder what would make someone get involved with a person who is a hot mess, at least mentally... To give you some background, I once worked a season at a 'resort' (not glamorous at all) as a waitress, I had...

    first "real" date

    So her boyfriend is a hard core drug user that she is willingly with and you wanted her your partner? It is clear she doesn't have good judgement so.....what does that say about you? Perhaps she is emotionally vulnerable and easily influenced, does this make her good relationship material for...

    first "real" date

    She is back with HER boyfriend, just because she slated him doesn't mean he is a bad guy, you don't really know him so swearing about him is not a nice thing to do. Besides, I thought after the night of talking it wasn't going to 'work out' was she less of a basket case when you thought she was...

    my polamorous partners are swinging again and it bothers me

    Selfish, low-down couple-centric liars treating you like a an extra, even though they claim it is a 'marriage.' Sack 'em and keep your dignity.

    Do I tell my partner what my metamour said?

    Of course that is an anti Semitic comment!!!!!!!!! :o Who is she Borat? No one wants to be associated with that.

    Do I tell my partner what my metamour said?

    I think you are doing the right thing, putting it down first takes some of the emotion out of it, it doesn't make it 'your' business either. Let them sort it out and also if she has been slandered she can tell you and be able to defend herself because that is not on!

    How to handle being vetoed or being on the bad end of an ultimatum

    I have children, I really don't like you implying that people who dislike vetoes just don't understand family responsibility. I really do not see the point of having a veto against a person who might be on drugs or is a psycho...I mean, really, for realz? You expect your husband or yourself to...

    Sharing Details of Relationships/Sex

    Wouldn't give it and wouldn't share either. It makes me very uncomfortable, I believe in privacy and I would not be comfortable knowing my sex life was being discussed or being used as a sex aid for another relationship. Nooooo thank you.

    first "real" date

    I am concerned that this previously amazing woman who appeared interested in pursuing a relationship with them is being cast as a "basket (case)" now? I could be wrong and would appreciate some more information but it looks close to a woman falling off her pedestal because she was a broken...

    Hello

    That is quite a generalisation! I don't think we have enough evidence to say that for certain.

    The Ideal Life (or Dreams Compromised)

    ;) Kittens are kind of cute but I wouldn't want a house full of cats no. I have allergies. I know, unthinkable for a poly person, I am a total weirdo............ :eek:

    The Ideal Life (or Dreams Compromised)

    Similar to you Hades, less artsy perhaps, I like to mix things up a bit ;) Just my kids and their kids all being raised together and no cats....I don't like cats (or dogs or pets in general actually) Just people, loving, committed and living life.

    New to Poly: Can This Work?

    I agree with Emm, this won't work, he wants to hurt you and he is using other people to do it, this is SO far away from what poly IS (and I don't think anyone would disagree with that particular generalisation! He cannot use others just to get back at you and you cannot allow yourself to be...
