    Sleeping Arrangements

    We have tried out different versions of this; the boys having their own room, and me moving in between each night when we are in the same place or me being the "queen" of the bed, and the boys moving in between. Both works reasonably fine. I can sleep with either of them in any bed, but we...

    You are young and have barely discussed the matter. It takes time to find out how things can be done.

    Partners Getting Along

    I expect my two guys to be family to each other, too. And they are. They are always asking how the other one is doing. We share problems, money, everything. One day, we will possably share a child. I am lucky because they are so similar and that they like each other. Sometimes they gang up on me...

    Imagine your ideal relationships.

    The ideal relationship is the one I am in now; dating two men who are friends and get along and care for each other. I like our family! We are not perfect, but we try our best. We have lived 2 years long distance with my boyfriend. In some periods we've lived together, all of us. The only...

    Need advice about putting "in an open relationship" on facebook!!!

    I used to be very specific, to list that I am married to my husband, but at some point Facebook unfriended us, we were both listed as "generally" married, and when we discovered it and became friends again, we decided to just keep it that way. So we are now listed as generally married. My...

    Polysaturation and balance

    I think it goes without saying that people that juggle more lovers are usually less involved in some of the lives of these people. There are only 24 hours in a day. It is very uncommon to be able to handle five primary/live in relationships - if you have three or four primaries the rest are...

    I'm poly , but I don't like polyamory ...

    To me, being homeless etc. sounds where the situation solving needs to start. You need to have the practical matters in place if you are going to fix the other stuff. Do you have money to live from? Do you have acess to medical help? As for polyamory, a triad is only one form of polyamory. I am...

    Is Polyamory Instinctual?

    Interesting question. I have fallen in love with several people all my life, but it took me so long to understand what was happening and how I wanted to deal with it. I don't think it is impossable for me to live monogamously, in fact I have done it. But poly serves me better. My husband also...

    Polysaturation and balance

    I discovered my saturation level after I met my boyfriend. He and my husband make me feel very saturated. It is not exactly having to say no to new love interests. It is more I am not interested. They give me everything I need. I am not even that interested in flirting with new people...

    Highly sensitive person and poly

    The question is weather or not generalisations are useful. Your generalisations about something you clearly know very little about are less useful.

    Is Polyamory Instinctual?

    People cheating or creating threesome dramas is not poly. and I am glad it is not! Is falling for more than one person natural? Sure. Is it natural to want to protect a new couplehood? sure. Are there many ways to practive love, sexuality and raising children around the world and is western...

    Telling family

    I think the idea of loosing touch with your own kids sounds very sad, no matter how they are as persons. But they are adults. They decide how to respond to what they learn. You might find that, if they get upset, it can have equally to do with you choosing someone they care about, than you...

    Have you lost anything from being poly?

    What I have lost, is my flirtyness. I used to be a big flirt, but ever since I started to date my boyfriend in addition to my husband, those urges have totally dissapeared. I feel very "happily married" to both of them. Like I was waiting for this all along. I didn't use to think there was...

    Confused libido..

    Why do you doubt that? Medication changes affecting libido is very common. I have had med induced libido loss happening to me twice - one was a heart medication supposed to reduce my migraine attacks (it did...and reduced everything else, too), the other one was my fibromyalgia medication but...

    Confused libido..

    I just had this experience. Being too involved at work killed my libido. It still works with boyfriend - when I see him, I am away from work. But with husband, in the daily life of job etc - just no, or max once in a while, as opposed to every day which has been the norm for most of our...

    LDR: Finally meeting!

    Safety? That is very pessimistic. I had no backup plans when I went to visit my long distance boyfriend, although I had never been in that city (and only once in that country). I just brought my credit card in case I didn't get along with his flatmates and we would have to find a hotel room...

    Camping trip without me

    This would bother me, too. Is there no way to contact you at all? Phone? Internet? Send postcards? I have dated my husband 11 years, he thinks being away from me 2 weeks is hard (he is used to about a week apart). Nobody forgets people they care about just because of a little absence. Can...

    Highly sensitive person and poly

    This is actually not correct. People who are not sensitive can be bad at emotions, both their own and others. People who are senstive can be good or bad at it, too. Sensitive is just an explaination of how the world looks like to you. To me the world is an intense place that over the years I...
