Thank you all for your advice and opinions. I was very tired when I wrote that, and I know I left out a lot that might clarify things. I also phrased things a bit weirdly, which made sense to my sleep-deprived mind, but probably not much to anyone who read it without the other facts. I think I...

I really only ever wanted one man in my life, but if we do end up in a V, I would like someone special to spend some time with while they are together. I have had several men interested in me, but not women. I would like to have a girlfriend. I once had a female friend with benefits. That...

Children and polyamory My husband and I are actively trying to have a child. Our girlfriend is older than both of us and has an 18-year old son. When we talk about us having a baby she has very definite opinions about how a child should be raised and cared for. It's beginning to make me worried...

What about jealousy or envy being depressing? I love my husband and I love our girlfriend, but I still get jealous of how much affection she shows him that I don't feel a part of. Warning. I'm going to hijack this thread now and ramble a bit. From day one she's felt a deep passion for him and...

I'm FUNK2LOPEZ on OKC. I find it easier to use the same username for everything I can. I'm not on much since my computer is broke again and I'm using other peoples computers to just get online to catch up with everything. :(

Welcome to the board and happy hunting. I was one of the lucky few that found one. They do exist but finding them is hard and getting one that really works out is also hard. We are still working through some things and push each others' buttons but we know that we will work through each issue...

Here's a real ring like the one I tried to draw. :p

Welcome I'm glad you decided to say hello and not just lurk. It's fun to meet new like minded people. :D

I read this thread to the rest of my triad and we were thinking about have rings specially made out of Tungsten (as that is the only ring hubby will wear to work) with three trillium cut stones. Each stone is one of our birthstones. So it will be a ring completely dripping with symbolism for...

I love it. It must have a picture and I would wear it. I'd wear both of them (Mess in Progress and the Don't put your eggs in one basket case), actually. :D It takes many to love a lot, with a picture of a large family could be another or something more eloquently put. I really enjoy shirts...

Welcome everyone. It's nice to have a working computer again to visit this forum with. :) As for the jealousy issues it really depends on each person or situation. By that I mean are you the one that's jealous or is it one of your partners? Are you jealous of their time together apart from...

It seems to me that love finds you no matter where you are. I found our girlfriend accidentally. I clicked on her profile instead of the link to the last thing posted on a different forum. She saw that I had looked at her profile and so she looked at mine. We (her, me, and my husband) are now...

Welcome to the forum. Glad you found it.

No cry for help is ever stupid. It's when you don't ask that can really make things worse. I'm still very new to this also and all I can say is keep the communication as open and honest as possible. Keep reminding him that he is the most important thing. Show him that this is true and not lip...

I am currently in a FMF triad. I love my husband and our girlfriend. It was really rough on me the first time we all met. The NRE was much more there for her with him than me. It wasn't our first poly experience but it was the first with goals for a long term relationship in mind. I was the...

That is a great article. It reminds me of Journals of a Polyamorous Triad at http://polytripod.blogspot.com/. I have fun reading their blogs when I have the time. :p

I don't think you're being petty. I think you are feeling taken for granted money wise. You might want to talk about it so that you don't start to feel resentful about it all. Just my two cents.

I for one would love to join your site when you do finally get it set up. So far it sounds great. :D

I am so sorry you are going through this. I still think you need to weigh the pro and con of being with her. From what you've posted you maybe should have stayed broken up with her and moved on. Is this situation really emotionally and mentally good for your well being? I know I don't know...

I really agree with what SeventhCrow said. It really does sound like she is not romantically interested in a long term relationship with you. If she is a good friend then you can work on that relationship, but I would say the romantic relationship is nonexistent.
