Which is exactly what led me to poly - becasue my husband and I are NOT compatible in bed (and it took us many years to figure out that was what was wrong) but we still love each other and want to be married.

I'm not offended. We all have different perspectives and views. I just don't know how to explain it, other than just that. :) I love my best friend with all my heart and I'd do anything for her. She has been my rock for many many many years. But I have no interest in having sex with her...

Right now if you do search on a user name, the forum comes up. Just as a note, if you google search on your food blog link (http://mind4food.blogspot.com), then the first 3 links go straight to polyamory.com/forum. Now maybe that's ok with you, since you have it right there in your signature...

I am the primary wage earner in my marriage, although we are both employed. I have the higher educational level, but am not necessarily the more intelligent of the two of us. :D I'm more educated. He's much quicker in thought than I am. My bf is the primary wage earner, while his wife stays...

If you're seeing him and lying to his wife, then you're having an affair and he's cheating. If there are lies to spouses involved, then what you're/he's doing is not poly. IMO.

I honestly don't agree with this (that we're all bisexual). I am not bi. I have no problems with bi in any form - male or female. I have watched and read porn from both perspectives and found it arousing. But for me - I have no interest in having sex with another woman. It just doesn't float...

Welcome. I was in a similar situation (not exactly, but sexual incompatibility was/is a big part of it) and have been in very much the same position as you - up to and including the part where I felt I had to figure it out for myself before I approached my husband. I probably did more of the...

A couple of thoughts about this: 1 - In terms of a random surf, then if someone finds content on this board, you could equally question back what they were doing reading here if the content is an issue! :D 2a - In terms of someone actually finding you, you can set the board so that threads...

True and true. :)

Ah. To me it seems only reasonable to have areas of the board limited to registered members vs. open to anyone who stumbles along and wants to read. OTOH, I was responding more based on this: That sounds like (and I could be wrong - correct me if I am) that some members want an "advanced" area...

Well yes .. because if you're a practicing Christian, the Bible says you must gather in fellowship. :) So isn't an actively practicing Christian one who goes to a church by definition?

I'm not sure I agree with the pagan/atheist part, but I would suspect that many/most poly folk are not actively Christian. A practicing Christian would, by definition, be against poly in any form as a sin against God and man. Personally I grew up Catholic/Baptist (yeah, I know) but I don't...

Here's my stab at some of these questions: It sounds to me like he might have a double standard going, maybe not consciously, but there, nonetheless. Unless you agree between you that it's ok one way ("adding a woman to share") but not the other (you dating other men), then the issue of his...

Huh. Well. My advice may not be what others here would give, but here are my thoughts, for what they are worth. To me, jealousy is one thing, and this is ... something else. You have a line in the sand, which is "no other men." She has been open and honest with you that there might be/will be...

I stumbled across this thread while doing a search for something else. Just wanted to let folks know that I actually am a professional photographer in my real life. :D So if anyone wants to talk photography or has any questions, I'd be happy to chat about photography here.

I've owned message boards before and I've owned ones with "private" areas that aren't open to the general public. My only comment is that if you do this and it gets out that there are areas not available to the general public, then you're going to have hurt feelings, anger, bitterness, and...

Brilliant. I can't count how many times on a forum I've heard someone say, "I didn't ask for your opinion," or, "you should get out of my thread," or words to that effect (not necessarily directed at me personally, but just in general). The thing is, when you put something out there in public on...

Hah. Well there is that!

I have a tat and plan to get more. I'd rather not describe it because I've done so on other forums and it's fairly distinctive. My only piercings are my ears (one each side) and I don't plan to get more.

No, not really. I apologize if it comes across that way. I tend to be fairly blunt and to the point in my writing. It's not meant personally. :) No offense, just a discussion. Ah, I think maybe I have a misunderstanding of your post, then. When you said "It's a different take. I like it," I...
