I'm out all over the place! :D Fly and I have our Facebook relationship statuses set to "in an open relationship with Fly/Jenny," and my family knows that I'm dating Moonlight also. Everyone at work and all our friends know, and Moonlight's friends and family know that I have a...

This is from earlier this year, just a quick little article, but I hadn't seen it until now. I think it was kind of a nice write-up about a "regular" poly family. http://citylivingseattle.com/main.asp?SectionID=22&SubSectionID=167&ArticleID=89217

Welcome! Seattle has a poly meetup group: http://www.meetup.com/Seattle-Polyamory/ And I think the poly potluck still happens at the Center for Sex Positive Culture: http://thecspc.org/ Disclaimer - I haven't been involved in either of these for years, but attended both when I first started...

But what if you love someone who doesn't love your other partner(s)? What if the "click" is there between you, but not between them? Are they then unworthy of a relationship with you simply because they don't want to fuck all the people you fuck? Or suppose your lover falls for someone you're...

For me, it's more about layers of intimacy. I don't have good words to describe my relationship to other people, so hierarchical terms seem easiest. Fly is a primary. Moonlight and I just aren't at that level yet. Every day she becomes closer to what I think of as a primary partner - someone...

What is there to lose? A person can always use new friends. :) If you definitively disliked him, I'd say cut him loose, but if you enjoyed hanging out with him and he took your romantic refusal graciously, then I think there's no reason not spend a little more time. For me, dating isn't the...

I like to give it at least a couple dates. It takes me a while sometimes to know how I really feel about someone, and I don't always think first dates are a great way to judge attraction. After a 2 or 3 dates, though, I think people usually know what they want, and at that point it should be...

Why on earth are you dating someone who goes out of his way to tell you hurtful things, and to stir up the waters between metamours? :confused: I don't think your problem is the wife, it's your jerkface boyfriend.

I don't do marriage, and Fly and I have never done any kind of ring exchange, too traditional for us. :) But a few years ago, while we were in Italy, he bought me a pendant for my birthday that is a symbol of a sport that has been a huge influence on his life, and now mine. Ever since, I've worn...

I know, for me, I'm sort of on the bi spectrum. Before Moonlight, I'd been attracted to women, had sex with a woman a couple times, but she was the first I'd ever wanted a relationship with. And, while sex with her is hot and beautiful and fantastic, I have a much harder time getting "in the...

So sorry you're hurting. :( Breaking up sucks, even when it's for the best.

This is what would freak me out the most. Taking sexual videos without obtaining consent is, in my opinion, abusive. To me, the cheating part is much less significant than the idea that someone felt their sexual desires were more important than their partners' rights to privacy and consent over...

Just checking in. I drove Fly to the airport this morning for a 2-day trip to LA. He was invited to film a record attempt involving his sport for Guinness Book, hence the whirlwind getaway. Things haven't been great for us for a while, but oddly they're not bad either. We aren't having much...

South of France, somewhere near Marseille or Cassis. Preferably somewhere near the sea, with both my loves and other assorted lovers nearby. Probably living with Fly, with Moonlight in her own place but very close. Getting fat on olive oil and ratatouille, and sloshed on rosé every afternoon...

Moonlight and I don't use any kind of protection. We've weighed the risks and decided we're fine. Fly and Punk are ok with this. Punk and I always use protection. With Fly, it's very simple: if he chooses to exchange fluids with someone else, his responsibility is to tell me this before he and I...

This was a fun thread to read! :) My avatar is me, in Brazil last October. I'm 5'4" and a half (the half is important!), 220 lbs, pale skin all dappled with freckles, and naturally curly strawberry blonde hair down to my shoulders. I have dark blue eyes with blonde eyelashes and eyebrows, and I...

Thanks for the happy birthdays! The sunburn has hit the peely stage, which is not cute. I don't even wanna look at myself! The mirror and I are breaking up for a few days. :rolleyes: I had a long text with Punk today. He comes home from his business trip this afternoon, and we're tentatively...

When I was first exploring my sexuality in general, and my bisexuality in particular, I found the CSPC really helpful! I went to a lot of workshops, some parties, the young adult group (which I've outgrown, so sad!), and a diabetes support group there. In fact, this is where I first really...

I would also agree with this, because I've been there and have behaved similarly to the OP's boyfriend. I prefer to date other poly people who are partnered in some way, because it removes the pressure of being their "one-and-only." I have an overly full life with Kiddo, work, the house and...

I am so, so very sorry about your dad. My momma died a couple years ago, and I'm still devastated. I'm sending good thoughts and vibes your way. I would be really hurt and angry at how C is putting Molly's needs and comfort ahead of yours, and I hope you all can resolve it in a positive way...
