    Turnabout

    What nycindie said. This has become a boring, predictable, cluster-fuck of he-said-she-said. Carma, if you were my friend in real life, i'd tell you to shit or get off the pot like, yesterday. Yawn.

    sex questions

    What do you mean "deny"? Why would anyone deny that some people bond with others through sex? Please show me where, if any, on this forum someone has said that. Just because some of us like sex that DOESN'T NECESSARILY INVOLVE EMOTIONAL BONDING, doesn't mean we're all "No one should ever bond...

    Sleeping Arrangements and Beds: Merged Threads, General Discussion

    *I* think it's because those couples have no clue what they're doing. They THINK they do, but they don't. They usually see themselves as "one" entity and expect the triad to be "one" entity. If you were intended to be a "one entity" triad, god would have made you conjoined triplets when you...

    Turnabout

    Sometimes people enjoy making each other miserable. If it's working for you, why change it? Just throwing that out there as one possible explanation as to "why". I know of several couples like this and cannot picture them leaving each other to seek greater happiness with other people, when they...

    feeling like a peacemaker - being the V in an FFM relationship

    If "Josh" and "Niki" are their real names, I recommend you edit your post and give them nicknames. Many people come on here and give personal details and then freak out when they realize this site is Google-friendly and anyone can read it. You have 12 hours to edit your posts.

    My Ice Cream Analogy

    I don't even like the child analogy. The kind of "love" people have for different foods or even children (you don't want to fuck your children, I hope) is not the same kind of "love" you have for a sexual/romantic partner. Not saying that you can't have more than one, but the analogies suck.

    Building Self Esteem - What Works?

    I used to feel that way, "why would anyone like me". The thing I remember that changed how I felt about myself was when I discovered I was really good at giving massages. I was working as a picture framer and I used to do people's wrists and shoulders on our breaks. ONe thing led to another...

    Turnabout

    OK, so Sundance has posted here in the past but has chosen not to anymore? I guess that's on him then. The thing is (I didn't add before because it's awkward to edit posts on the mobile device), sometimes the "other side of the story" also confirms that the person is an [unflattering ad-hominem].

    Turnabout

    By the same token, i have also seen the other partner show up here and act in such a way as to confirm the things that have been written about them.

    Turnabout

    Annabel darling, ! I'm just doing what people usually do at some point, which is point out that we only have one side of the story and therefore incomplete information with which to draw conclusions. Time and time again i have seen people do a 180 degree turn on their free advice when the...

    Turnabout

    Wait a minute people, we only have one side of the story here. How dare you all judge Sundance when he hasn't even had the chance to speak for himself.

    Maybe I'm NOT so Poly

    Did you tell her not to call you or contact you anymore, and did she continue? If yes, you have my permission to be pissed. If no, do it next time and then come talk to us. You're not doing anyone any favors being pissed about this. It's a situation where you have choices to make, and...

    List on how to communicate

    There is also an "art" to choosing partners that are compatible with one's personality and communication style. I've done that, so I don't have the problems you describe above.

    List on how to communicate

    It's better when folks just come right out and say what they mean. A lot of unnecessary obfuscation happens when people try to beat around the bush out of trying to protect each other from the truth and/or reality.

    Compersion... am I the only one who dislikes the word?

    Me too. Except I think that "frubbly" is stupider. I'm not sure if I follow your last paragraph all the way through to the end, and I think I'd like to keep it that way. Please do not explain it to me.

    Polyamourous me?

    Never mind if it works for others. Will it work for YOU. I could write a whole page and I'm sure other people will try to convince you to deal with your jealousy, get to the root of it, develop compersion, etc. Bah. Don't do anything you don't want to do. Two years is about how long it...

    going from a V to an N -- do I have to??

    MOD HAT ON: Well i could merge the threads. You were the one who started this in General Discussions so it was taken at face value that you wanted a discussion about going from a V to an N. Is that what you want? Both threads merged together and placed in Life Stories and Blogs? MOD HAT OFF...
