    The three have talked it out. I do not know if Pedro knows the dynamics as of yet. I was going to suggest a house meeting or something similar. And thanks for the encouragement.

    Been with Dexus for the past week in Flushing on a mini vacation from the chaos at my house. We stayed overnight at Mom's for Christmas & it was a regular shitshow covered in Christmas frosting to make it seem nice. 1. Elaine's eldest son, Nephew 1, refused to come down to open presents. He...

    I told Dexus that he needs to sit all involved down and really talk about where they are, what they expect & how they all fit into each person's future goals. Both Dexus and Carlos are using condoms. I know cause I am the type of mom that will not judge, PLUS I instilled that I expect Dexus to...

    Thanks Fallen Angelina. I like being a lead be example type person anyway. I was already doing this with JR, I am just going to include my son in it as well. I just wanted to be sure that I was doing the right thing.

    Generally I have been saying all of this. I just wanted to make sure I was setting him on 'the right path' so to speak. I know that everyone's poly experiance isn't going to be the same. But if I can give him enough information so this is a good experience & example I will feel better.

    Carlos is about to return to NY after graduating college soon. They all knew about this before Carlos went into college & Dexus had entered the Navy. I do not think he's worried per se. Just he wants to know were he stands and what to expect. Knowledge is power sort of thing.

    My son Dexus & I have a really good relationship. I told him he could come to me with any questions and I would try to provide an answer. Two says ago he threw me for a loop. He asked me about Poly and told me that he and his friend Carlos have been seeing the same girl, Emily. Carlos is...

    Talking with my mom today. And she asks me if I remember "the magic chocolate box". I told her no. And she says "Oh, .......ok. I guess we did that with your older sisters."

    Does such a term as CRE (Continuing Relationship Energy) exist?

    Nice, I was going to continue to use my own term anyway. LOL but I like the transitions of healthy poly relationship.

    Does such a term as CRE (Continuing Relationship Energy) exist?

    I like ERI as well. I wasn't sure there was an agreed upon or unofficial term for it or not. I just thought this more mellow stage was not as frantic as NRE, hence the different term.

    Lol I didn't think so either at the time. But it felt really good after I gave it some thought. I have no idea why. :p :o

    Does such a term as CRE (Continuing Relationship Energy) exist?

    Sounds good to me. :D Woot! This stage doesn't feel as heady & overwhelming. Like it's mellowed a bit, but still very intense.
