Every situation has rules. Over time, it seems that rules tend to lessen as people become more confortable. The biggest issue to making this work is communication. Also, learn how to tells others what you want. Don't try to mediate any fights between your boyfriend and his wife. That rarely...

I cringed at first, but overall, it was good for a Beck piece. He does completely miss the point that people making political decisions may not match their preferences. For example, Obama is not as vilified as Miss California because people expect he may be hiding his real preferences behind his...

What does goyim mean? I was once talking to some Christians about this. I said that Islam took Christianity and modified it to make it a new religion. I said it was equivalent to how Christianity took Judiasm and modified it. But they could not see that. Their basic answer was something like...

I have asked a few Christians about this. Answers vary a lot. One person said that you are suppose to try to follow the old laws, but there is no more punishment behind them. Another said that Christians were excused from the old laws because they have new ones. So Jews still have to follow the...

According to Ezekiel 16:49, God decided to destroy Sodom because they did not help the poor and needy. The men wanting to rape the angels happened after God decided to destroy the town. So from this story, sodomy should technically be stinginess. The Old Testament is completely full of rules...

I am not Christian, but I grew up Christian. From what I see, scripture can be used to justify just about anything. As an example, some people will talk about wanting the traditional or Biblical definition of marriage in debates on gay marriage. They may quote portions of scripture that...

I would probably ask a lot of questions. It may be that my spouse would see it as casual dating as opposed to a real significant other. Or it may be that the claim was made in error. I once had someone tell my gf that she saw me making out with another woman. As luck would have it, I was on...

You are not responsible for her happiness. You can be there to help, but it is ultimately up to her. I have seen relationships fall apart because of depression or bi-polar. Hopefully, she will seek therapy or get on some medication. I have seen medication save other relationships.

It took me awhile to be comfortablee with the idea of the person i was with going out with another guy. I was way caught up in all the potential bad things that I was blind to anything good. I had to stop myself and realize the good side. For one, I may like the guy and we could hang out. It...

From what I have seen, male homosexuality is more accepted in poly circles than in swinger circles. There are always exceptions, but it seems that way from people I have talked to.

I always try to keep an open mind. :) Thanks for the reply, catbird.

Pleased to meet you too. I personally do not believe in any gods, so it seem to me that all of it is thought up by people. I see a large conservative movement that is still trying very hard to push its religious views on others. I think this type of thing is declining, but it seems to be very...

It sounds like she is going pretty fast into poly. She should allow you some time to get use to the idea since it was not part of the original relationship make-up. One worry would be trying to figure out what she is thinking. See if she is really into the poly concept or is using it as an...

It will be interesting to see if that helps or hinders. I hope it helps since your two communication styles may be compatible.

I have heard of similar situations but the people were all local. All I can suggest is maybe trying to stay with your boyfriend during the week and husband on weekends. The only other possibility I can think of is renting an RV if that would help the moving situation.

It was an interesting discussion. They were arguing over gay marriage and gay rights in general. It started off with Bible verses. The cons side went with some Old Testament stuff and how some of the New Testament re-emphasized it. The idea was that if God wanted homosexuals killed before and...

Poly is more about love, respect and openess. So if S and A still love each other, I would consider it a poly situation. I think most of the issues will be about communication. Ask him what bugs him. Let him know what bugs you. For the most pary it will be standard roommate issues. And there...

I agree that coming up with good morality is tough. I remember seeing two Christians argue about homosexuality. They both quoted the Bible to support their views. But they could not reconcile it that way. They ended up both concluding that they felt right with God and the Holy Spirit with their...

Cool. That sounds pretty positive. I hope it continues. I find that writing down my thoughts will help clarify them a lot. Where I work, we sometimes talk about lecturing a dummy. In other words, explain what you are working on and your problem is sometimes enough to give you the insight...

Each state is different in how it could be handled. Within a state, such an issue might depend on which judge you get. However, for a 15 year old, I think it would be less of an issue than if the child were younger (and considered more impressionable). If you have a good relationship with your...
