Hi unicorn and welcome! Your situation rings so very true with me as I am sure it does with the majority of members here. Jealousy is a natural emotion that we all have the pleasure of dealing with unfortunately... In our situation, I am the one that was in the other side of the fence- I got...

One thing I have noticed is that if your individual relationships are not sound then you are building nothing more than a breeding ground for jealousy and resentful emotions. Once I realized the amount of work that it takes to be in an actual real, productive relationship there were a couple of...

Our song continues... October 2015.... It's been a while since I have visited the forums- many, many great things have happened in our lives and lot has changed. Nina and I have (finally) moved back home, our oldest son has become a dad, thrusting us forward into grandparenthood... Whoa...

Hello drummer I'm glad to hear that you and Flower are working towards a new path of honesty and communication. The communication part, coupled with this honesty of course, is a sure way to a happy marriage. I have experienced much of the same brutal self inflection and honesty that you are...

Bingo! Don't let your insecurity run your life. If it turns out that he finds someone else that he wants more than you in the future, would you want to be with him anyway ? Do what YOU want to do and let him do the same. You and he have a pretty solid background it sounds like so build on that...

Hi syd If your relationship revolves around 'as long as our connection is the strongest' and 'will be love someone more than me' then you will spend the remainder of it doing nothing but worrying about what he's doing (and with whom) or looking over your shoulder for the prettier girl. Either...

Hi nancy Yes it most certainly is interesting. I am personally am an acts of service kind of guy and my wives are receiving gifts and quality time gals.

I thought that I would post for anyone interested a couple of books that we have found very helpful in building our relationship together. During what was the most rocky (and I use that loosely) of times for us we found it very helpful to sit down and explore some of the things about each other...

Hi there Chap Hats off to you guys for handling the changes in your relationship in what I believe to be a mature manner. The intrinsic "guy thing" about being jealous and possessive in indeed a difficult hurdle to clear. It sounds like the two of you are moving in the right direction and are...

Ok I don't know how to quote something from this ding dong phone but if your husband thinks you are pushing him away by suggesting he form a relationship that meets his needs then he sounds awfully closed minded. If he let you go once I wouldn't get too hung up if doesn't accept you as you are...

No that is absolutely not crazy. To me it sounds like you are well on your way to a happy poly relationship...If your ex husband satisfies some emotional need that you have but misses the mark in the bedroom then maybe that's how your relationship should be. Polyamory, fortunately, isn't defined...

Hiya Janelle, Nice to meet you. You know him better than anyone here- I he's insecure, jealous, or possessive I would say he's probably not going to be down with it. Otherwise just bring it to him in a non threatening manner and see how it goes.... One think to think about though is whether you...

Hello James I would forward her a copy of this post... It seems to me that you are a very grounded, non-threatening individual who is comfortable and secure in your relationship. I cannot see why she would be so hesitant or worried about bringing this forth unless she is not giving you the...

Hello, Our relationship is quite similar to your own. One side of our family knows, accepts and appreciates our situation, while the others two sides do not. One of which is out of respect for them, as they simply are close-minded individuals. I sometimes equate the frustration of hiding our...

Welcome Moviegeek and Windego13, Very nice to make you acquaintance. I hope that you find this forum helpful. I know that I have found much valuable information here as well as plenty of people to offer advice from their journeys and struggles. All the best M

In 2009 it so happened that an opportunity presented itself that Nina and I could move across the state to offer our son a better education and I a better job. As Nina and Zepplin had not been apart in well over a decade, and Zepplin and my relationship mending but still somewhat unsteady, this...

Ah, I understand. Good for you that you were able to work things out. It sounds like you are a very stable individual and it sounds like you and John have communicated your feelings to each other I should clarify that when I say get it, I don't mean to insinuate that you should go people...

It sounds to me like this first attempt at a poly relationship was fostered from an episode of your husband cheating on you a while back. That's not exactly the best approach to starting on this path, so no wonder you aren't exactly feeling a deep connection with Bex. What do YOU want? Poly...

Greetings, counterclockwise. I don't know what feelings you are worried about. It sounds to me like you have given them as much latitude to pursue their relationship as they need. Is it that you don't want to have a sexual relationship with Bex that bums John out? It sounds like your family...

Part II Part II At first, there was plenty of NRE flowing between the three of us... I was now not only a friend but there was a romantic connection between the three of us. We each had time together and things were going good. There was little time between the onset of our relationship and my...
