Am I just overlooking the edit button for posts? It was stated above that the edit window was one hour now - but I tried to correct a typo on a post that I had posted 39 minutes previously, and was not able to find a way in which to do that.

Kevin wrote: I read A LOT during my transition to poly - probably around 2 dozen books that are directly about poly - or poly related, definitely all the "major" titles. And, I completely agree with Kevin that there is a need for some really good books on "poly living'". Opening Up...

Which was my intent. :) I did appreciate Karen's comments on codependency, though - and very much agree with the issues inherent in looking to others for fulfillment, rather than working on on selves. Or as Galagirl put it - I wonder if codependent thinking is more common in monogamy...

This came across one of the FB poly groups that I monitor - just for fun, I thought I would share. :) Not a musical masterpiece, but good for a smile. (Apologies if this has been posted before - I seem to recall having seen this somewhere, but not sure when or where).

Magdlyn said: Yes, this indeed! :) I've been in the front and the back - feels weird either way.

My long distance girlfriend, Wendy, posted this on their local FB group - so thought I would share here as well. Some interesting thoughts. "What I mean when I say "toxic monogamy culture": the normalization of jealousy as an indicator of love the idea that a sufficiently intense love is...

Yes, looks like I spoke too soon. The site was running at normal speed during my last post, but has been slow all day today. The problem seems to be intermittent - either due to the new software or server issues. I am accessing other sites (I have high speed fiber optic access) at normal speeds.

My observation as well - the site was definitely running slow this morning and last night - but seems to be back to normal now. Thanks, tech team! :)

Also no no signatures on mobile - but I do see them on my pc.

I don't have a magic number for how long the edit window should be - but I do know that I often will reread my posts after a few hours of other activities, and then find typos and other corrections that need to be made. So, if not 12, I would suggest a few hours anyway - just from my perspective.

This update was a nice reminder that we all get to enjoy the benefit of an anonymous benefactor who maintains and hosts this forum at no cost to the participants and with no advertising. So thanks to those involved!

The Most Skipped Step When Opening a Relationship Also, another individual article to add to the list - one that I have seen recommended on occasion lately: The Most Skipped Step When Opening a Relationship...

Polyamory Uncensored Here's another up and coming poly podcast that I have come across: Polyamory Uncensored - hosted by Lyndzi Miller Their intro reads: https://anchor.fm/polyamoryuncensored/support The podcast seems to be available on several feeds, but I believe that the anchor.fm site...

Congrats! And it is great that you got such a positive response. :) Al

I've seen this article recommended a couple of times lately - and I've read through it a couple of times. I do believe that it could prove very helpful for many traditional mono couples who are considering opening their marriage - as certainly many mono couples are deeply entangled. For those...

I am far from an authority on this also - but my wife and I (neither of us previously into kink) found this observation to be essentially true in our case - when we decided to experiment with kink for a bit. We just could not really obtain a D/s energy (either way) - because of the overriding...

Hi polyamitoo - and welcome to the Forum! Although I do not have any personal insight into your specific situation, I did very much enjoy reading of your interesting background. We will look forward to hearing more of your story. You may also want to post about this situation in the Poly...

Hi Mzill - and a somewhat belated welcome to the Forum! We will look forward to hearing more of your story as it unfolds. Please continue to feel free to join in the conversation - and thanks for the film recommendation. You mentioned that poly/open was not a new idea to you, so I don't...

Hi and welcome to the Forum! This forum is much more of a discussion forum than a dating site - and please feel free to join in the conversation with any thoughts and questions that you may have. Polyandry is of course one of the possible polyamorous configurations - and the general consensus...
