Contrary to popular mythology, you need a lot more than love to keep a relationship together.

Zip ties are way too fragile. Trust me on that one.

Welcome to the party. These situations usually end in four different ways. Plan Alpha: Partner gives. Plan Beta: You give. Plan Gamma: You both agree. Plan Delta: You both split. Alpha: Your partner wants to make you happy and agrees to the new dynamic. They are often unhappy about the...

Perhaps my perception is colored by never having tried it. I'm open to changing my mind but I feel no need to hasten to its indulgence.

Not sure if this is terribly helpful, but I'm absolutely mystified as to the fixation with a threesome. I really just do. not. get it. I like to devote my attention to one person and I feel like I'd go from doing a pretty good job with one person to a mediocre job with two people. I dont know...

I dont think there's a requirement to be considered poly, I certainly didn't intend what I said to convey that message. To fall back on metaphor, its the difference between calling one's self religious and calling one's self Christian; one implies a more formalized way of living and thinking...

I think its necessary to differentiate between "polyamorists" and people who are not monogamous, the two are not necessarily the same. I would term a "polyamorist" as someone who actively identifies as polyamorous and is to some degree involved in the local poly community and/or in some for of...

In the words of Tom Araya, lead singer for Slayer, "It's a great fuckin' title."

I've always found that thinking about death is like throwing bricks in the Grand Canyon; it does nobody any good and it ultimately serves no purpose. It takes away from what you have in the now to worry about something that you ultimately can do nothing about. When I was younger, I thought I...

I'd stick to poly groups or having trusted people set up meetings/gatherings. That way if you meet someone you already know, you have something in common and the need for discretion is well understood by many poly people. Avoid places like OKC because you WILL run into someone you know there...

I ended up making basic bannock bread and took it into work. People toss the most bizarre things.

I haven't found single poly people to be THAT rare. Perhaps its because I'm a bit younger but they don't seem to be as scarce as people paint them to be. Where I ran into trouble was being a relatively single poly guy. Single poly women are highly sought after, single poly men...not so much.

Hopefully this place will provide what you need but just be aware, the internet has a VERY long memory.

Wow, you've got some stones jumping into this right off the bat. Mad respect.

You're taking a bit of a chance, but most people enjoy the scent of cinnamon. I've yet to find someone who got grossed out by it. It just makes you smell good. The cinnamon in the shoes makes your shoes smell good so when you take them off, there's no bad smell. Beware, it WILL stain socks so I...

That sounds pretty standard. My running policy with my ladyfriends is I don't care who they bang, as long as its someone that respects them and respects the relationship that we have. If they end up falling in love, awesome, same requests are still in place. I would always prefer to know and...

Try to land the tranq dart in his butt-area if you can. That way, if he runs, he'll pump the tranquilizer solution around his body faster and you won't have to chase him as far. Don't forget to tag him. 😝 But srsly, I have the same advice I give to everyone going on a date: cinnamon. Sprinkle a...

I definitely see your point and were I giving input on this subject, I'd probably say about the same thing. There is some backstory that I cant really share out of privacy concerns. Even on an "anonymous" forum with people I dont know, there were some things that happened that, in conjunction...

I'm kinda bummed that I couldn't come up with a more clever title, the word "ex" should lend itself to some interesting wordplay. I'm at a little bit of a sticky situation that I'm fairly unfamiliar with and wouldn't mind some input on. Prologue: I was in a mono relationship for five years...

Damn, I got all excited thinking this was an L5R thread XD
