    Your most recent OKC messages. post em here!

    hullo Helo, ;) I'm not drawing up a psych profile, I'm just saying to myself, well, he clearly hasn't bothered to get to know me (which he's indicated by not noting anything he read in my profile), and there's absolutely nothing there to inspire me to write back. OKC, in particular, asks a...

    Worry with my other partner

    Hi JynLove, So what if you're wrong? Are you not allowed to be wrong, or make a mistake? That's a much bigger problem (as I see the world) than what your partner's partner might be doing. I recommend finding ways to say exactly this to him, whether he asks you to or not: "I know where my...

    Hi, it's Natalia, creator of Showtime's "Polyamory: Married & Dating"

    Looks like she's deleted most of her comments. Seems community was not all that receptive to her.

    Disabled Folks

    Yay! I'm always so encouraged when I'm not alone. :) For educating folks, I do like Spoon Theory. I think it was mentioned in a different thread, but belongs in here, if people are searching for 'disability.' The gal who wrote it has lupus (I apologize for my ignorance, is SLE just one kind...

    On getting a kick out of couples

    You know, AnnabelMore, I suspect that if I were in a frozen region, you could sell me ice cubes. I completely relate, and though I haven't done that, I could easily imagine doing so. When I figured out I was bisexual, I thought how lovely it would be to be with a couple. I had no vocabulary...

    New and Jealous

    Welcome, theladybug :) One quick language tip: Usually, 'the lifestyle' is a phrase used by those into swinging, moreso than those in polyamory. So, you noticed he was shaving, and haircutting, but you didn't start a conversation about what might happen while he was gone? Why shouldn't...

    Compersion: Merged Threads, General Discussion

    I suspect my men have compersion for each other, but it's more like they're happy I'm happy. They love each other dearly, but I think both of them prefer to pretend that I'm not actually with the other. CBF is a little more inclusive of FBF (when I'm with CBF he talks more about FBF, and more...

    Poly-curious

    Hi, I just wanted to say welcome. I'm guessing you are a woman? (not clear from your post) ;) I am female. I find it interesting how much gender can disappear on line. I'm glad you found this forum, and that you have a place to get it out. I, myself, am really happy to have this place...

    feeling down about the closet

    I saw the movie in theatres like 7 times, and I own almost all the media put out after that. I have theories about why I like him, but mostly I go with he's adorable! I have the talking Stitch toy, too. He's great company on a road trip, or at work. :) Well, there's yer problem, right...

    Disabled Folks

    It could be this thread. :) I am one of the invisibly disabled. I have a piece of paper somewhere that declares the percentage disabled I am, from a work injury long ago. I have a stupid genetic condition that makes my collagen broken, makes my ligaments loose (so my joints dislocate, all of...

    feeling down about the closet

    Me: "oh, you couldn't? That's too bad. Sucks to be you. I *love* having two boyfriends." :D (purely theoretical, no one has dissed me yet. The people I care about all know. I'm only out to one person at work, though my mentor suspects. He is the kindest man I have ever had the privilege...

    Comfort Zone

    I went to class today (i'm in a sort of elite supervisor training) and I cracked up every time she talked about getting out of a comfort zone. She talked about how that's what we have to do as supervisors. Another nail in the decision of me demoting myself back to non-supervisory. Kind of...

    my journey into radical self-love

    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaRGH. I just wrote a long and beautiful tequila inspired post, about my lovely birthday. And tequila ate it. eeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrg. I'm so disgusted. Trust me, it was beautiful. and now I must sleep so I cannot re-write it. :P tl;dr version: my birthday...

    Comfort Zone

    I was once on an airplane, seated next to the manager of the entire western region of some giant conglomerate (like ATT or something). I told her I had absolutely no ambition whatsoever, and she laughed for twenty minutes. She thought that was the funniest thing she'd ever heard. I end up...

    A problem of touch

    I'd absolutely die if I went three weeks without touch. Poly has been a complete blessing for me in this. FBF, in the distant past, used to occasionally flinch from my touch. This caused me no end of pain (I didn't want to hurt him, I just wanted to touch). CBF and I cannot be in each...

    For those of you who are not out do you have specific places you go with one person

    I'd bet it's not abnormal. And, to ease your feelings and expand your mind and grow as a person, it might be an interesting exercise to explore why you care what people think of you. There are those in small towns, and those with morals clauses in their work contracts, and in situations...

    The "How Are You Doing" Thread (redux)

    I am all blissed out. FBF scored free tix to Peter Gabriel concert. I literally sped all the way from my town to his, got there in time for a bite to eat, and proceeded to be in a fabulous concert. Yummy cuddly sexytime after. I reveled in the easy (non-speeding) drive home, realizing I was...

    How do I handle seeing my ex-metamour for the first time in a social situation?

    monogamishSF, I just have to say I love that you call her 'TP' (I couldn't help but giggle). And I loved what GalaGirl said. For me, stating what I want has most often proved rewarding.

    Sock Puppets.

    I, for one, just want to offer a hearty thank you to the mods for taking these actions. Trolling is abhorrent, and perhaps knowing they'll be outed will cause folks to cease. Thanks Mods!
