What I hear you saying is you're not rich enough, smart enough, or hung enough to attract the partners you want. Is that because the partners you want all want rich, smart, porno-sized dudes? I think you've got some cultural baggage about success and happiness going on. Do you know what you...

This stuff goes better when you understand each others' expectations upfront. But, first you need to realize your expectations might be different. It seems like you two just realized your expectations are different. You'll hear the "Communicate! Communicate! Communicate!" mantra a lot in...

I identify as pansexual. For me, pansexual means being attracted more to personalities than bodies. I forget where I first saw that definition, but it stuck with me.

Without having any idea what "mooching" and "macking" are, it sounds like your BF thinks the Bro Code wasn't respected. Would it have made a difference if the guy you "mooched" or "macked" hadn't been friends with your BF? It's pretty common for partners to meet other partners when...

Can you be "on hold" with them and also move on with a positive life? Do you have reasons you can't or don't want to pursue other relationships while they take time to reconnect? I think it would be unreasonable for them to expect you to remain an absent and abstinent member of a closed triad...

There's a wiki for that. There ought to be a closer trope. Without wanting to start arguments over definitions or semantics, it's simply not my experience that most *poly* people are only in heterosexual relationships.

How did he do that? You should have the kind of relationship(s) you want to have with the person(s) who want the same thing--or at least more similar things. If you're having problems in a relationship, trying to date more people is not going to solve those problems.

Once you reject the orthodox assumption of monogamy, you should be prepared to reject the rest of the cultural relationship/dating orthodoxy. You should not be surprised to learn not everyone shares your assumptions/expectations about how non-monogamous relationships ought to work. This is...

Once you've moved, find the local poly community(-ies) and make your friends through it(them). http://www.polymatchmaker.com/main.mvc?Screen=MAIN&MODULE=POLYGROUP http://www.meetup.com/polyamory-401/ http://www.meetup.com/Richmond-Polyamory-Meetup/

May I suggest "Friends and friends of friends" as an option for those of us who are semi-out to the world.

Interesting. What's the backend platform? Are you looking for more help than feedback? As much as I dislike certain parts of Fetlife's functionality, their visual design is much easier to read and use than the phpBB template used here. I also think strong mobile support would be a good thing.

It might be where you live, too. The percentages don't tell you where those bisexuals are born or live (or where they are more or less likely to identify as bi).

I'm not sure there is a usual sense for threesomes. Unless you're talking about the porn world and not the real world. Every threesome I've been part of in the real world has been unique--a completely different dynamic depending upon the people involved. Though, maybe it depends on one's...

Sex doesn't stay the same forever, if for no other reason than we change as we age. You have the choice to languish in the past and the specifics of how it used to be so pleasurable this or that way, or you can discover new possibilities for having fun sexy times together. As for healing the...

When people first start dating and "going steady" as kids, we make tons of mistakes and have lots of confusing feelings. I think we attribute those missteps and feelings only to "being young" when, in fact, they are also about our inexperience. Deciding to be ethically non-monogamous or...

There are a few groups on Yahoo, TNPoly and KnoxPoly come to mind. There's a TN Poly group on meetup.com, and some poly/kink crossover in the Chattanooga area. Asheville, NC has a fairly active poly community and I understand Nashville does, too. I tried to get the KnoxPoly group more active...

You could post a personal ad here to let the (potentially) more enlightened unicorn hunters know about you.

Maybe introduce the topic through movies... Summer Lovers is a good starter. http://polyamory.wikia.com/wiki/Culture/Movies

Just an observation, your earlier language was confusing for me... "my couple did this thing" does not sound like a "V" relationship to me.
