    Fun and Frolic With Long-Term Love

    I'm really sorry. It doesn't seem to matter how old we are, it is always horrible when a parent dies. My dad's been gone for over two years now, and I still miss him. Who ever said 'make lists' is right! Your brain is being flooded with emotions and neurotransmitters and hormones that make...

    New poly-relationship has me in crisis!

    I think how much you want to hear is very personal. I like knowing that Mal and Djinn are having sex, because I know that Djinn, especially, feels that sex is an indicator of a healthy relationship. I feel insecure when they are NOT having sex because I know it makes her look for new...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    That depends. I'd easily drive 100 miles. I used to do it for breakfast every weekend for years, and then moved further away (250 miles) and easily did that every second weekend.

    Charting Our Course

    I have those same thoughts all the time... and Mal tells me the same thing. Some days I want to record it so I can play it back over and over again.

    New poly relationship - both of us new to poly - being open, caring & ethical

    That is a really great resource, thank you. As festival season approaches again I know Mal will be having sex with partners that I don't know. We need to have 'the talk' before that.

    A little advice needed.

    They explain somewhere in the blog why they choose fulcrum over hinge (a fulcrum balances between two things a hinge pulls things closer together or further apart), I have to admit since I started reading their blog I use fulcrum now. It suites better, imo.

    Triad may end in divorce...

    Childminding also would work. Imo. But the girlfriend 'should' babysit? Uh, no. If she offers, great, I take Mal and Djinn's kids all the time. I take them individually and together, but I do it because I love those kids and want to spend time with them. And I do laundry and cook do dishes when...

    Pet peeve: "sleeping together"

    This popped up in my timehopper. http://m.scotsman.com/lifestyle/scottish-word-of-the-week-hochmagandy-1-3295491 "How's your father" is not something I've ever called sex, but this knowledge may make future conversations about a friend's ill father uncomfortable

    Onion article made me smile a little :)

    That sounds great, I hope it works out.

    Poly logistics

    I understand his side. When I stay at Djinn and Mal's house I sleep on the couch because there are no extra bedrooms. For me it has to do with history, and a feeling of being part of the family. I could sleep in the travel trailer in the back yard, but it feels less 'family' and like I'm...

    Weekend visit with all three of us - too much pressure?

    While I do think I was overthinking it when I posted this thread, when I came across this blog post I really connected with it. Here they are, happy, long term, committed, and the fulcrum still needs to be aware of balance between his two partners, and insuring that his partners have enough...

    Dating with a neighbor?

    I've dated a neighbor. Across the street and 3 doors down, lol. It was definitely convenient since neither of us drove... But I think your real question is was it awkward when we broke up? And the answer is: yes. A bit. But it was ok. We ran into each other a bit more often than normal with an...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    Feeling stressed about medical issues. I have some surgery coming up, and I've never had any before and it's making me stressy and uneasy in my skin. And I'm concerned about Mal and Djinn's financial situation. I feel bad that things are eazy for me and so hard for them. They work so hard for...

    Weekend visit with all three of us - too much pressure?

    I know we can't force it not be be awkward at all, lol, but some structure is ok too. Idk. I'm probably feeling out of control with other things, so trying to exert some here. A few small/cheap activities and we'll be fine. Just over thinking like I usually do :D

    Birthdays/other occasions and Gifts!

    Mal is here this year. But only because that's the only weekend in February that works with my work schedule. Valentine's day isn't a huge thing that Djinn and Mal celebrate, so she said she doesn't mind. He's actually here for the whole weekend, and we are planning to see a show and go for...

    Weekend visit with all three of us - too much pressure?

    So I'll preface this with saying that I don't feel like we are having a problem, and I think we are moving along at a nice pace. The NRE is wearing off. We are finding patterns that work for us. It feels nice. And stable. And most of the time it even feels easy. All three of us do really...
