    Transitioning back to an Honest Life...

    Thank You!! I just want to say thank you to everyone... :) I recognize that this relationship doesn't fit what I want for me right now. I didn't think I was minimizing what we were doing or the harm it could cause to his other partners by saying that we didn't have "sex", but I guess :o I do...

    Nice dream! Long-term relationship or just a couple of dates? I have no idea what your odds are. I'm just curious.

    Transitioning back to an Honest Life...

    Let's get graphic now... Ok so for a look under LittleSara's covers... :cool: We've done kissing, touching, cuddling... farthest we ever went was oral (I guess :rolleyes: it's sex but to me it's just hooking up. Sex is another ballpark for me.) Usually we just kiss & cuddle. But it Has gone...

    Transitioning back to an Honest Life...

    Thanks~ Thank you, Tracy. :) I see what you are saying about making my own choices, and those choices not impacting his lifestyle... I'm my own person, I agree! When we started dating, I didn't really know much about poly, but I knew about his other relationships, and he knew about mine, and...

    Understanding Polyamory

    New to Poly Also, if this is a new thing for herm she might still be defining what it means to her. So, it's good to ask questions, but be careful not to grill her, and if she doesn't know how to answer something, or has an imperfect answer, don't pick it apart. Sometimes it's hard to explain...

    Transitioning back to an Honest Life...

    PS: Just a note... In case somebody asks: "What makes you think he isn't lying to you if he is lying to the other women?" We started as friends, and talked about everything, and we both "came out" to each other, I guess... we were honest with each other first. Also, I know how scary it is...

    Transitioning back to an Honest Life...

    So the situation is... I'm new. :o I have cheated in my past... because I was unsatisfied, felt like monogamy was not for me... etc. But I always felt terrible during and afterwards. :( Because I didn't want to hurt anybody, hiding my true feelings was always painful. And then I found out...

    Honesty in poly

    Thanks But... I think there is a transitional phase - maybe "coming out" phase? - when someone is :confused: still coming to the realization that their feelings aren't bad, shouldn't need to be hidden. (Sorry if I'm bringing up a thoroughly discussed topic, feel free to redirect me to another...

    Honesty in poly

    Similar situation I think my answer is already embedded in this thread, but I just want to reiterate how much it sucks when someone that you really really like isn't ready to be honest about their poly relationships with one of their partners. I guess the only option is to stop seeing that...
