    Rising Revelations

    Hi Arrow, Sorry to hear that you're going through a tough time. This forum definitely has lots of great information and stories to draw from. Had you considered polyamory before your husband or is this your first go around dealing with your partner having a more long term relationship? Like...

    Safe Sex question

    Jesse sounds kind of childish. Fluid bonding is serious stuff, and your health and safety even more so. If Blossom would be to hurt to consider safe sex, well then, she doesn't sound too mature. Having adult conversations about safer sex has nothing to do with being her Dom or not. He can't make...

    Sexual Attraction Versus Emotional Attraction

    Let me also try to reword tHe question a bit more clearly as I forgot to do that. How frequently do you feel different kinds of chemistry/spark/attraction to people when you first meet them? This spark could be anything from a friendship to fuck buddies to ranting about social science buddies...

    Sexual Attraction Versus Emotional Attraction

    Thanks for all the comments thus far! This is absolutely fascinating! @Indie This is a big concept with many variables that is hard for me to condense in this form, so bear with me :) I'll try and elucidate. So when I interact with people in a variety of context I can have many different...

    Different Ways of Defining Sex: Advice?

    Having grown up in the evangelical christian church, I remember there being some interesting definitions of sex and virginity. Different people had different ideas. Some people were very orthodox saying anything "more" than french kissing was essentially sex in the sense that it made you impure...

    Sexual Attraction Versus Emotional Attraction

    As I've dated more, I've thought a lot about sexual and emotional attraction.I'm beginning to learn how they work for me and I find it interesting how it is so different for different people. For instance, I find myself emotionally attracted to a preponderance of folks but sexually attracted to...

    The Yellow House

    Lol, yeah interrogation is a thing. I've done a little and I definitely liked it. Depending on who I do it with it can be sexual or not. It doesn't always have to involve beating :P It's a very creative form of play with loads of possibilities. In fact, before I embarked on my indefinite play...

    Poll: If polyamorous, are you spiritual or scientific?

    I agree that this poll is confusing and somewhat useless. Try reading some books on statistics and doing survey research. If you don't have good questions, your data will be meaningless.

    Jealousy a Root of Monogamy?

    I dislike your premise because I find it to be illogical and I think implications in wording are important. I bet a lot of people on here don't consider themselves promiscuous just because they're poly. In the same way, a lot of monogamous folk aren't overly jealous people just because they're...

    Jealousy a Root of Monogamy?

    I dislike your premise because it seems to be making the assumption that polyamory is inherently more 'evolved' than monogamy. I think that poly can encourage personal growth and often does but so does monogamy and any healthy human relationship. Humans do have emotional needs and monogamy can...

    The Yellow House

    Oh my, today has been a bit rough. I got demoted at work. I felt a bit ambushed as I never got feedback on the issues so that I could attempt to fix it. I teach computer lessons and work on the sales floor. Apparently some customers had complained about their lessons over the last few months but...

    Being Poly & Staying Friends with Your Ex

    I'm not sure that poly is the most important variable. I think the first variable that has to be addressed is whether or not the breakup was mutual. If one of you is still in love with the other, friends is probably not going to work. Or if the break up was acrimonious. Also, how much time do...

    Is honesty always preferred?

    My policy as of late has been: Yes=Yes Maybe=No No=No When making a decision in the present, I have been taking anything other than a full yes to mean no. It sounds like he might not be totally okay with it. He seems to be acting a bit fickle. He should be able to express if he is or is not...
