    Redpepper's journey

    That sounds fascinating! I wish I could have been there. I probably would have wanted to check out every single book. And OF COURSE you were by far the most popular book! Who in their right mind would not want to "check you out"? ;)

    Life in my Circle House

    What NK said. One thing you may wish to consider: we teach people how to treat us. For whatever reason, you have taught Rage her behavior toward you is acceptable, or at least that you will accept it. If it is no longer acceptable to you, teach her that. It sounds to me like you, Marius and...

    Higher Expectations of Honesty?

    "Don't stick your dick in crazy." That is deep wisdom, BrotherMan, a pearl of great price. Seriously, though, I'm glad you lived to tell the tale. Sounds like you gained some valuable lessons; sorry you had to enroll in the School of Hard Knocks to get them. From your description, your ex-gf...

    How Do You Prefer to Receive Bad News?

    For me it's not so much about where the bad news gets delivered, it's about how. I prefer my bad news (of whatever variety) straight up with a chaser of honesty and compassion.

    Am I getting better or worse? (cheating wife)

    I have not been following the whole situation, but from your description of it, I will say nope, no sir, this is definitely not polyamory. She is not demonstrating nearly enough love, respect and consideration for herself or for you. Now I'll throw down some thoughts I think apply. When...

    Need advice..new to this

    Hi suesuekp. Welcome to the forum. My $.02: Competing with her for our husband's time and attention has not worked for you. The competition continues to end in a tie. Time to try something else. Since fighting each other has failed repeatedly, why not try working together? It looks to me like...

    Oops, I think I cock-blocked my only chance for polyamory

    I could not agree with this point more, redpepper, except that I think that it is possible to heal from these issues. At least I hope it is and, for myself, I'm working toward that end.

    Where will we end up?

    *hugs* Hang in there, SisterWoman. Don't forget to breathe. You're crocheting a bedspread? *tips hat* Wow. I crochet, but I've never undertaken a BEDSPREAD. I tend to make smaller things, baskets and snowflakes and whatnot. I made a darling pair of cafe curtains once. Took me all winter! If I...

    Higher Expectations of Honesty?

    You say she is cheating. Those who cheat with you will also cheat on you. Also, the relationship you have now is not polyamorous, since poly is rooted in honesty, integrity, and respect for everyone involved. Neither she nor you are demonstrating much respect and concern for her OSO. At the...

    Oops! I may have messed up.

    The cornerstones of polyamory are honesty, integrity, and concern for everyone involved in a relationship. This is not the path you're walking. By jumping directly from the theoretical possibility of polyamory as a beneficial change in your marriage to a fait accompli covert sexual...

    Where will we end up?

    :( So sorry for your pain. All of you. It's torture, I know. I wish I had advice, or resources, or something tangible to offer. I don't. But I am praying for you all, for the best possible outcome for all of you, especially your kids. (I don't know if you believe in the power of prayer, and I...
