    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    Sorry, little bit more about the girl that wants to be his girlfriend, Tiana. Even if we did bring her in, it would likely be just a short-term thing. She is going off to college and is quite a bit younger than us. The only connection is that she and Eric enjoy talking and are really attracted...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    Okay, now I have a bit more time and energy. lol The 3 angels' daddy is in and out. He wants visitation with the kiddos, but doesn't want to pay child support or be responsible in any other way. Ariel has already told him that she's looking at moving with the kids to her mom's house, which is...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    Thanks everyone! Just got home from work and I'm tired, so I'll make a better post later. By biblical I was referring to, God doesn't say "No poly, only monogamy." It's nowhere in the Scriptures. That's where Ariel is having the hard time. The church always preaches monogamy, etc., but the...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    It did not go well. She ended with, "I can't even hear you right now. I'm just getting angry and disgusted. I'll talk to you tomorrow." She's having a really hard time believing that poly is biblical. I'm drawing a blank right now. I busted out all of my Bible references and research that I...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    If our conversation goes in this direction tonight, then I plan on calling her. Eric prefers talking over typing in any form, because he feels that typing is too impersonal for such a matter as this. I would really prefer to just go see her and talk to her, but that just isn't possible with us...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    Eric works 10pm-7am, so I'm left at home alone with the kids sleeping. Ariel usually gets off work around 10pm and is then home alone with her kids sleeping. So we chat on FB nearly every night. Eric broke the ice a little bit this afternoon with a text he sent her that basically said, he...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    I should also add that Eric just got a couple of job offers. Both jobs would move us, either within our current state (OK) or to NM. Ariel lives in TX. We moved from there to OK a year ago. The affair started over the phone, as we expressed our loss over losing our closeness in proximity and...

    Will you be my husband's girlfriend??

    Okay, so how on earth do you even approach someone about being your husband's girlfriend? The person we want, Ariel, has been a friend for two years now. She and my husband Eric had an affair last year. They really do love each other. But I ruined it for all of us at the time. I didn't even...

    I am an admitted jealous freak!!

    Thank you, GS. I've been reading through a lot on this board lately, in preparation to talk with my hubby, and have a plan of action in place for me to deal with my insecurities and issues. We had a great talk last night. I explained everything to him. We talked through my issues, his issues...

    I am an admitted jealous freak!!

    Oh, it's not him at all that is hooked on the looks. He tells me I'm beautiful, hot, sexy, etc., all the time. I am the one that is lacking confidence in myself. It's a self-esteem thing.

    Biblical Christian Poly Living

    Question: as Christian polyamorists, are you all "out"? Or do you keep it under wraps because of the church and the retaliation that you and your family would face? (Children included-- you know it gets passed down to their peers.)

    I am an admitted jealous freak!!

    I like it too! I also think I know who I could use. The funny part is, she was my best friend. Then she had an affair with my husband (before we were open). Things ended very badly with her. But now we're friends again and talk nearly every day. If I got to choose who my DH had as his...

    I am an admitted jealous freak!!

    We have been open since January. I have to admit, I haven't exactly made it easy on him to go out and fool around. I'm okay with it-- I just want him to check in with me and let me know that I'm still his number 1, even though he's out with somebody else. Not fair, I know. I just have really bad...

    This is about all I could find. I was able to find the answer to the one I was seeing most and had a question about, but it took a while. Admin may consider posting a sticky under User Guidelines with acronym definitions for the newbies, that's nice and clean...

    Acronyms

    Is there a thread with all of the acronyms and what they stand for on this forum? I looked, but couldn't find anything quickly. Being new to poly, I'm not sure what everything stands for.

    Looking into poly

    Yes, it is something that he desires. But it is also something I desire to discover about myself. I don't know if I would like it or not. I've never taken part in a threesome. I don't really have an opinion about whether I like it or not. I am pushing myself to discover my likes and dislikes...

    Looking into poly

    Like I said in my original post, I'm not there yet, but I'm getting there. He's not being pushy about it, but we do discuss it. He asks me how I see things going if we did, how things would play out for me to be comfortable, etc. They're good conversations that allow me to see things and play...

    Thank you! That's some great information. It's been a difficult road overcoming some of the mental ideals, but I'm getting there.
