Did anyone besides me catch the little clip on the Fox O'Reilly show about polyamory the other night? Also, a main page on AOL had a wonderful story/article about open marriage with the author of a book on the subject. (Sounds more like poly to me) The link is below...

Yes it is, Sunshinegirl.

So sorry to hear that Vandalin. If there's one thing I've noticed so far in this poly life it's that there really needs to be just the right set of people and the right set of circumstances for it to all work out. Of course that's always been the way in a conventional relationship as well, just...

That sounds so wonderful for your new love and for your kids. What a great situation with the young ones. That can be the hardest part of this poly life I think. Continued success!

Hey A......you articulate it fine. We all have our dreams and best scenerios in mind. Here's hoping you achieve yours.

America's way of life is based on God and religion. All family life is based around that premise. Sure, there are more and more people with each generation (like myself) who are eschewing those old ways and setting off on new trails (like the poly community of today), but it may well take many...

Have fun here Amalthea...there really are some great people on here. You can run anything by them.

Welcome Andrew!

You can always be a "polyfidelitous" V with you, your finace and another woman if you should be lucky enough to find the right individual and your fiance is able to blend her into the relationship and love her as you do, and vice-versa. Polyfidelity would mean you and your other two (fiance and...

Yes parking! We have a two car garage and now 3 cars! My wife is granfathered in automatically. I left it being whichever one of us other two gets home first, gets the other spot! I ain't gonna add on another garage just cause I added on another love! lol:D

Redpepper voila!....., I think you've hit the nail squarely on the head. I am a concrete person. I know what I like when I see it. I do what I need to do in life. And I do it now. I didn't realize what a monkey wrench I'd thrown into our relationship or the effect it would have. The familiarity...

What a great feeling! Let's hope others on this board get to experience some of what you guys have. The world would be a much happier and kinder place. It is indeed inspiring to hear. Congrats! :)

YGirl, I hear ya, but the only extra room in the house is the game room and I'd have to sleep on the pool table!......my wife does think it a bit unfair though, since each of them has an alone night everyother night while I never have to sleep alone......unless I piss both of them off, then I...

Our bedroom is downstairs and my other's is upstairs. I rotate nights between the 2. My wife is still adjusting to my not being in bed with her physically every night and that is tough for her. The 3 of us have to sometimes sleep together when we have a crisis and one of us needs a little...

Nothing wrong with a good education, Redpepper. Love to see parents do some actual parenting! Our kids are off to college. One is pretty open sexually and the other very tight. We are choosing to wait to tell them about our V until we are all very secure in it. At the same time, they are...

Redpepper, it sounds like you're a little protective of your hubby and his feelings! I get the message my wife is worried about me being hurt, too, should things ever go south with my other life-love. It's wonderful that we have such loving concerned spouses. We are indeed lucky. Am surprised to...

Love is always hard work, guys. But isn't the payoff great? Congrats and keep going.

Redpepper, thanks but looking back on it I don't think my wife was completely honest with herself at the time of our 3rd moving in with us, but due to other circumstances at the time, we had no other option. Perhaps that is why my wife is still struggling with gaining compersion now even though...

YGirl, I'm sorry I didn't clarify, I was speaking in generalities and not regarding your current situation. Anywho, I guess it can be said that the guy you "re-met" and fell in love with had no compersion at all. Compersion should be about accepting the situation we are in....and....enjoying it...

YGirl, you stated it and you're playing it right. He may already be in complete compersion with you and your other lover. He may be accepting and happy for you, but he may, like Mono or my wife, have no desire or inner need to explore any further in an intimate relationship, with anyone else...
