    Not about poly: Homeschooling why?

    We live in Canada as well & I would have gladly homeschooled if I had the patience and we had been able to afford it. Our school system, while not the worst, could certainly use an over haul! (Maybe it's the government that needs the over haul?) Things I took for granted when I went to school...

    Poly-Friendly Places to live... I suck at google search. :(

    To move to Canada you would have to have a sponsor either through a job or personal sponsor who would be willing to support you for X-amount of time if you aren't working. This would require a visa or immigration papers AND passports for everyone. If any of you has a record, even a minor...

    Inexpensive Date Ideas

    Possibility and I will often meet up at a local coffee shop that has free wifi, both bring laptops & spend time together while doing stuff that we don't do when we're alone together. Rent/borrow/netflix a movie, pop some pop corn & have a 'theater' night without the huge expense! Possibility...

    I just do not know what to do....

    I am sooooooooooooo sorry! There are no two ways around he, he IS a cheater. It sounds like he's using poly as a cover so he can have his cake and eat it too without doing the work needed to keep things open and above board. Trust is one of the cornerstones of a good relationship, mono or...

    Breaking the ice

    There is one. http://www.polymatchmaker.com It's not like OKC in that it's not a meat market. It has interesting forums like here. It's free. Premium members ($5 a month) get things like chat, unlimited winks, unlimited email, etc. Free I think it's 3 emails per 24 hour period, same for...

    Help! My husband wants to be poly, but I'm mono.

    I agree with this wholeheartedly! Mind you, I've also discovered that for Possibility it's EASIER for him to communicate via the written word than it is face to face. For Breathes it's easier to communicate face to face. It took me a while to figure out this distinction but once I figured it...

    A point to sex without orgasm?

    Hello and welcome. There ARE medical conditions which cause sex to be painful no matter what position, no matter what is used. I would suggest a physical check up with your gyno doc to rule out any physical problems. For the last six years of her life sex was painful for my Mom. My parents...

    Perhaps because I am single....

    I have wondered the same thing.....why marry if you are not going to be monogamous to each other. After reading on my forums & egroups over the last several years it has come to my attention that a LOT of people don't realize they are poly until after the marriage. They marry, have kids...

    Good times

    I'm a little bit perturbed. I was supposed to meet up with someones from this forum last weekend. Unfortunately one of them ended up ill--not a problem, these things happen. I emailed them that was OK & gave a list of times & places to meet up today. I still haven't heard back. This is the...

    Polyamorous just in words or actions too

    Thinking over the things which have been said on this thread over the last little while brings to mind my boys' dad. He's super jealous, holds a grudge for ever & a year (not that Maca does as you haven't mentioned it), didn't like me going out without him, even for groceries, couldn't stand it...

    This site has helped, but I need a lot more

    May I suggest that the FOUR of you have a sit down and talk about all of this? Delilah might be saying things to stir the pot (can't see why she would, but ya never know). Bring up all of your concerns regarding this right there, in front of everyone! This way there is no "he said, she said," "I...

    OMG WHAT AM I doing HERE?

    Something specifically for the two of you..swinging was something you did together, as someone else pointed out, it was something special the two of you shared. You say that you are enjoying the mental connection with your new guy, the conversations, the intellectual exchange. Is there...

    Hurt ego spill over

    He may need to grow up BUT he may also need some reassurances & quality time (or more of quality time) with you to help ease his bruised ego. Think, is there something you, and ONLY YOU, do for him that you haven't done for a while? Is there any way you could do that thing for him some time in...

    OMG WHAT AM I doing HERE?

    Have you tried to find something else that the two of you can do together to replace swinging? That might help to increase his confidence and show him that you really DO love him and are willing to do whatever it takes to keep the relationship with him as top priority!

    Poly Vignettes: Sharing Success & Happiness

    In person, I don't tend to be very logical, either. Raging female hormones seems to describe me best lately. When I KNOW I need to be logical I write, lots. Here, email, LiveJournal, chat, pen and paper, whatever it takes to get those emotionally-charged ideas into logical format so Breathes...

    questions a million of them

    I am poly, switch, slave sooooooooooooooooo here goes. As others have pointed out it DOES depend on your dynamic as to just how to proceed. That said. He promised you he wouldn't bring anyone else into the relationship until at least a year had passed, correct? Respectfully call him on this...
