    Things you love that went away- Nostalgia thread

    My father-in-law said something along the lines of "why didn't you guys hassle us for a phone when you were teenagers?" on Thanksgiving when I had my phone out after dinner, coordinating with my mom by text to get a ride to my sister's house. His youngest child is 41. I told him that it would...

    Good side of Jealousy- What is this feeling !?

    Cuckolding doesn’t just exist in a monogamous framework. It's entirely possible to have a cuckolding fetish that you indulge in while poly.

    Date Night Assistance or Discretion?

    When we were new to poly about 7 years ago, we were more likely to do this. I remember that for my second date with my dom (Sam, who at the time was more of a FWB relationship), my husband went shopping with me so I could buy something new to me to wear (we went to a thrift store). He ironed the...

    Omg! Lol!

    I think it's funny that they equate polyamory to being interested in orgies. I guess I've been doing it wrong all this time. The cartoon is way more entertaining than the corresponding article, which I think someone posted here a while ago, but it could have been on a different poly board.

    The story of Spork.

    It's sort of like irrigating your nasal passages, but not really. I mix the water and hydrogen peroxide in the cap from the hydrogen peroxide bottle, so there isn't a lot of liquid. Neti pots and the whole idea of putting that much liquid up my nose freak me out too, so I understand. I'm glad...

    The story of Spork.

    I use hydrogen peroxide diluted with water 2 times a day whenever I feel a sinus infection coming on (this link talks about how to do it http://www.earthclinic.com/mobile/sinus-infection/hydrogen-peroxide.html). I get chronic sinus infections. I spent almost all of one fall and winter early in...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    Good luck on your to do list! Mine is huge too, but unfortunately, mostly stuff I can't do with my dominant arm in a cast from wrist surgery. Only one more week with the cast though! I'm so glad that we voted by mail this year. I don't trust myself driving one handed and trying to find a time...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    When we built our house, we were required by building codes to have a carbon monoxide detector on each floor, so the ones in the hallways are dual smoke/carbon monoxide detectors. Those and all the other smoke detectors (one in each bedroom, and one per open area) are all tied together, so if...

    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    I've never done a list like that. After my ex-boyfriend broke up with me, I think I would have just used something like a list of red flags and why I didn't pay attention to them as a way to beat myself up. It does kind of sound like you are struggling with it also, even if you aren't conciously...

    The Best Life Yet

    That all makes sense. I would just keep in mind that while you know there's no way you'd leave Rider for Beckett and that, given the situation with the distance, he's not really a "threat" to your relationship with Rider, feelings aren't logical, so you might be dealing with this again...

    The Best Life Yet

    I seem to remember that Rider had a hard time dealing with you interacting with Beckett on what Rider perceived as his time when you were officially dating Beckett (I could be wrong though). Since you and Rider spent pretty much all the time outside of work together, it created issues back...

    Kevin's Hetero MFM Poly-Fi V

    If you're getting a known traveler number or global entry number, both of those last for five years. I don't think TSA has a program that lasts less than 5 years. I don't know if that makes the appointment seem more worth it, but I just thought I'd let you know.

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    The surgery went fine. The damage was pretty severe to the cartridge I had to get three stitches to repair the cartilage. The joint had pretty much separated. Now I have this huge dressing up to the middle of my bicep. On the 17th I'll get an actual cast for 4 weeks. Recovery is going to be 12...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    I'm getting surgery on my wrist on Tuesday to try to repair an injury I got at work on April 21. I'm anxious about it, I'm sure mostly because I've never had surgery or been under general anesthesia, so it's all anxiety producing because I don't really know completely what to expect. I'm also...

    One partner decides, the other makes a choice

    Not all d/s relationship have the same amount of power exchange in them. Some people are totally owned by their masters, while others pretty much only participate in power dynamics in the bedroom. In my own d/s dynamic, I have a few things I'm supposed to do daily but other than that, there's...

    Not Dead Yet!

    I went through something very similar 3 years ago when my ex boyfriend dumped me. It took a few weeks before I got past the crying anytime I wasn't at work. The not feeling lovable took much, much longer to get over, but I also had the complicating factor of my husband and I not having a good...
