Thanks, Mya. :) Fly gets to keep the chickens, since he has the coop and house and all. I dunno how long that will last, because even though he likes to show them off to our friends, he's never shoveled a pile of poop during the entire time we've had them. I'm the one who does all the Work...

Found an apartment (yay!). It's a little bit of a commute to work, about 20 minutes or so, but I can afford it, and it has some good amenities and is located in a fun neighborhood. I'm getting ridiculously excited to move in, get all my stuff settled, buy some new things to make my space my own...

Previously, I spent most days with Fly, seeing Moonlight for a few hours one night during the week and usually an overnight on the weekend. She and I also have taken several weekend trips. However, this schedule arose from a need to create a stable schedule for Kiddo, and a desire to have...

Big changes afoot. Fly and I have broken up. He's never been a great boyfriend, but you know how you make excuses for someone because you love them? Well, it finally got to the point where even I didn't believe my excuses. We haven't had sex for over 6 months, and even then it was sporadic...

Yay for new relationships going well! And I'm so glad for you that you guys moved out of that toxic home. Cheers to new beginnings :)

"Well, tonight I'm having dinner and spending the night with my girlfriend, and then Saturday is my boyfriend's family's christmas party." This is what I said today when a coworker asked me what I was doing this weekend. :) I tend to be an open book, and if people ask about my life they may...

Congratulations!! So thrilled for you all! :)

Even when Fly and I were each other's only real partners, we still celebrated holidays separately. It's the same with Moonlight. We all have our own families, and Fly and I are further complicated by Kiddo's schedule with Fly's baby-mama. As well, Fly works for an artisan bakery, so the days...

I think that for me, having a wonderful new person highlights how wonderful my established relationships are. I know that if my relationships were not solid, loving, supportive, and trusting, I wouldn't have the freedom to make new connections with others. The outpouring of love and desire for...

Sometimes the fear of the unknown is more painful than the bad relationship, especially if it's not an abusive or hurtful situation, but just lackluster. Some people are afraid to be alone. Just because you're poly doesn't necessarily mean you actually have multiple relationships to "fall back...

I happened to walk into my boss' office while this was on her tv, and it really pissed me off. I think Dr. Drew is an asshole anyway, but I don't understand why they even bothered to have these people on the show if they didn't want to actually hear their stories. Instead, Dr. Drew and the weird...

Wow, it's been a ridiculously long time since I've posted here. My only defense is that life has been pretty mundane, and time rolls on without anything exciting happening. Fly's and my relationship continues to evolve. In August, he told me he wasn't sure if he still wanted to be with me as my...

Well, Fly and my "rule" is after having sex 3 times with new person, on the idea that if it's gone that far, it's likely this person will be around for a while in whatever role (FWB, fuckbuddy, love) and may impact life and family stuff. In reality, I tend to want to talk about people right...

I chose to remain childless by choice for a loooong time. I love kids, I'm the director of a child care center! But I valued my freedom more, and reasoned that there are already plenty of people in the world without my bringing more into it. Then, I met my boyfriend, who already had a...

This is one of my very favorite things about polyamory. Once you take away the mindset that the only people worth pursuing are those with whom you have a chance at happily-ever-after, you get to enjoy each relationship for where it's at and not worry about where it's going. I love Fly...

Sounds like a fun weekend over all, except the leaky tent would have made me crazytown. :) It also sounds like you learned/reaffirmed some things about yourself and your comfort levels. Self-knowledge is always a good thing! I'll be thinking about you tomorrow. My mom was a breast cancer...

No recognizable shape or letter :rolleyes: I'm with Moonlight and Fly as sort of semi-co-primaryishes. Moonlight considers herself mono, I consider myself poly, and Fly considers himself open. Fly has one ongoing FWB and also has casual sex. Additionally, I have a beloved sexy friend, Punk...

Happy happy anniversary! :)

Yay, how exciting! Fingers are crossed for you guys! :)
