Yes, I think there is some regret. Maybe regret I chose the wrong types of partners for me. Maybe that I was fundamentally at odds with what I needed (solo poly and anrachry) and what my family needed of me (stability, one partner, husband etc.). But i wouldn't trade any of my experiences even...

This is such a thoughtful and great way to summerize what I was trying to say. Yes I'd say this is a near perfect translantion of what I was trying to come across as. Thank you so much! It's definitely a compromise at the cost of feeling like I lost a fubdamental piece of myself (and in the end...

Speaking as a previously bi single poly woman I don't date women who can't meet me equally on their own. Ask yourself: would you be ok if a woman wanted to date you and said "By the way sex and dating off the table unless my husband is there?" Do you really need a man to hold your hand to find...

So glad to hear your update Polysnow! Congrats on four years of poly blissful marriage :) and also on the home purchase!

I love reading about your blessing box and the guys. I am glad things are looking up for you this year Bluebird :)

That was my opinion, and also me adding to conversation too. Not taken as insult. Or I wouldn't added the winky face just pointing out the assumptions weren't about the actual question.

I am not even sure where to start this. I am in love with the romantic idea of poly. I was pretty successful as solo poly for a time. It was probably the best of times and worst of times for me. And i don't mean that figuratively. Being poly held the happiest times of my life but also the most...

I just found out a cousin died in a car crash. Thats 3 covid deaths in family last year and one non covid. The cousin is my third cousin, and only 10 years old. :( I wish I could fly to canada to be there for my first cousin. She was really instrumental in my life growing up and like another...

Me either. The only reason I went quiet is because of real life (not a lot of anything going on last year!) and the ever pervasive feeling that lgbtq being not protected in the usa due to politics. But, really I should have contributed more not less during those times. Other than this I'm not...

This is so well written :) I am glad you figured it out on your journey. Maybe we don't need a non poly area just a place to discuss what post poly world looks like for each of us. Like a continuum.

One more reply to this. No such thing as too boring if written well. I once read a whole series about building a cathedral brick by brick. Fascinating. Also i read your blog all the time and never once thought "this is boring".

Thank you so much for this, yes it's a pet peeve of mine too. Nothing worse than the magical vagina trope that no man can resist xD

I'm not basing what I write as a moral batton to teach others poly. I'm writing what I love which happens to cross over with themes here and also has the unique opportunity of the said audience being a community I am in. :) So knowing what the audience likes and dislikes is really helpful. It...

I didnt mean using peoples material here. That would be awful and go against all sorts of my morals. I just want perspectives on what people who are poly want to read and see but is lacking in poly fiction :)

Its not a cordoning off just a way to access stories about people closing as well as opening etc. That's all. At least that was my intention on it. I guess it depends on what you view as polyamory as an identity, a lifestyle choice etc. I didn't want to derail the origional topic with...

I filed my divorce in the uk. I didn't have an attorney at the time so did an online form, and then sent it to the courts. Mine took longer because my ex didnt wsnt to sign but there shouldn't be a need for so many loopholes when its a similar process of fill in paperwork abd hand in to get...

Hey Atlantis, hope all is well with your world and you and your family are covid free. Thinking of you at this time.

I hope you're able to work through the distractions and anxiety Petunia. I know i don't post much but youve been on my watch list for years now. That didnt come across creepy at all. 😣 Ok all i meant is I like reading about your life and hooe things settle :)

So I've been writing a reverse harem / why choose fantasy novel. Beacause...why not. But I was thinking the next one I wanted to write was on polymory in a more urban fantasy style. So, if youre reading an urban fantasy with polyamory, how would you all want to be represented? And what tropes to...

On a side note. Super impressed this thread is still going over 10 years later.
