Well, J and I had a talk when he got home from his date the night I posted this. I told him he was no longer able to see her everyday (he usually goes in to see her on her lunch break and she goes to see him on his). I made sure that he understood that it wasn't because I was putting a demand...

It's really not that bad the majority of the time. But when she gets on a rant about something, you're going to know about it and she's going to do her best to control everyone involved.

I suggest counseling. A counselor can help you guys work through the emotions to reach what really needs to be said in a more effective way. And a lot of times, one person just needs to shut up and listen to what the other has to say, then step back to chew on what was said, and come back later...

That would not fly with her at all, I promise!! What he tells her and Dad is that he's running errands or hanging out with a group of friends from work. If he told her that he was making these trips into town to hang out with a girl, it would be a living hell for all of us until we moved...

The time he is spending with her (running errands, meeting up with friends is what he tells his dad and step mom, we are neighbors with them right now) is what has his step mom so upset. She just sees him as leaving his family behind all the time to go have fun on his own. To her, that says...

Controlling NRE I went through the tag for NRE and didn't see anything in there that seemed relevant to the topic (although I'm sure it's been discussed time and again, just not tagged I guess). How does one control NRE so as not to let it get out of control and end up hurting others? J has a...

We decided not to meet up with the guy that's been emailing me. J and I talked and we both came to the conclusion that we are just uncomfortable with meeting up with some random guy from online. J is very protective of me and really worries that another guy would cause me more pain during sex...

BEAUTIFUL!!! You have expressed exactly what I have shared with others about our situation and our relationship. While J does do some things that are hurtful and so on, he is so much more than that. J has also been to all of my doctors appointments. If I'm not feeling well and having a bad...

Deep breaths and caution have become a regular for me. I don't laugh it off with him. He knows how seriously I hold all of this. I'm sorry if seemed that I was laughing it off on here, but I'm really not. I hold keeping my husband's honor very highly, so you probably won't ever see me fully...

I can honestly say that we are both in this TOGETHER. Since the honesty has come out from him and I've told him that I now realize who he is and what he needs, and that I'm more than happy to let him be the real him, things have been great! We have laughed and had more random conversations (in...

Thanks! Normally, I would step in and take control of a relationship he was having, actually ending the relationship is more like it because I wasn't open to poly at the time. I was more focused on trying to make him mono, which he's really not. I've asked him why he told her that lie and he...

I made a response on the "Which Way To Turn" blog that I thought would also be important to post in our own blog. "That's awesome!! It really give me hope for our future. I really needed to hear that, because a girl that he had wanted to bring in and she didn't agree AT ALL, just sent me a...

That's awesome!! It really give me hope for our future. I really needed to hear that, because a girl that he had wanted to bring in and she didn't agree AT ALL, just sent me a message saying how messed up I was for letting him do this and that I was "NEVER AND I MEAN NEVER going to be happy...

Oh my goodness!! Okay, so admittedly I didn't read through your whole Blog. That's just a lot of pages of reading lol. But, I did read the first few and the last couple, so I've got a pretty good idea of what's been going on. When you start out, your story couldn't be any closer to ours if...

Well, I'm not sure things are going to go poly with our friend that has been thinking about it. She hasn't said no. Actually, she hasn't said anything either way about joining us. But, she and J were talking the other day and he asked her if she had ever thought of him that way. She said...

Couldn't have said it better myself!!! I'm the same way. I have a lot of chronic pain from a 4 wheeler accident that I was in 8 years ago that crushed the entire left side of my face (full reconstructive surgery was needed). I just can't handle talking on the phone for that long because it...

Oh my goodness! I am cracking up reading through these posts!! We've only been poly for a week, but since I gave hubby permission to see this girl from work, we've had some interesting ones already. While responding to a Craigslist post by us looking for a couple to have a meet up with...

Setxfamily, oh my goodness!! I LOVE your avatar pic!!! We're displaced from TX right now, but hopefully not much longer :) We lived in the Austin area and miss it terribly!

LOL :p I think you set a new record!!
