    So far, so good!

    It seems like work/future insecurities are present in almost everybody's life... Here as well. Hopefully it will all work out good. Yay for the hot sex. Sounds totally awesome. ;)

    Phy's story - as you like it

    If you think she will understand the reasons to not tell about stuff, then it's probably safer. I don't know the person at all, of course. :) I was just thinking, what is the likelihood of her finding out without you telling her and how bad will that be, vs. what the likelihood is that if you...

    Phy's story - as you like it

    I don't know who gave you the feedback, but I'm sorry to say, this makes absolutely no sense. :rolleyes: What is the rule? All poly relationships are, by definition, full of drama? I thought that all poly relationships were, by definition, poly, and there wasn't any further requirements. Maybe...

    Poly journey of Mya and rory

    SNeacail thanks for your comment. :) I'm not dead set on the schedule we've been thinking about, and I feel that we'll just see how it goes once we're there. It's nice to have some idea, though. I do like to aim for flexibility, anyway. ---- I finished with studying a while back, and have...

    Phy's story - as you like it

    I think there are way too few examples here of stable, drama-free poly living. I don't know what exists in the 'real world', but the relationship corner is full of stories one more horrifying than next (though not all posts over there are like that), and I feel this forum gives quite a...

    When will you consider fluid bonding?

    For me time isn't really a factor, so I answered the first option since I would be fine exchanging fluids right away in the right circumstances (and have done so). I don't really know how much use the concept of fluid bonding has.. There doesn't seem to be a agreed definition. People seem to...

    Couple sexuality and poly

    I have a richer, more balanced sex life since becoming poly. There doesn't seem to be any fear of comparison between my partners, and I also don't do that. I notice differences, obviously, but a ranking doesn't follow from those. I enjoy various things genuinely. For me NRE with one of my...

    NRE (New Relationship Energy) - Merged Threads, General Discussion

    I actually am very similar to your guy here in this respect, and it totally has nothing to do with NRE for me. I don't have very many bodily preferences in the first place, but when I love somebody whatever they look like becomes to totally hot/beautiful to me because of that. That also works to...

    Poly journey of Mya and rory

    I'll write a bit about what Mya and I talked about for the future, once all of us are in the same city (in a couple of years). Earlier we've thought that maybe it would work best to have a sleeping schedule of about two nights a week for me and Mya sleeping together (plus some time spent awake...

    Poly quiz, just for fun

    1) Polyamory is openness to developing more than one romantic connection, and being open for one's loves to do the same. 2) I think a lot, enjoy writing about what I'm thinking, I get enthusiastic about things. I care more than feels good in this world. I enjoy having my space, which allows me...

    Still navigating.

    Is that even relevant to the situation? She is doing what she needs to do, and has her reasons. It doesn't sound like your husband is getting what he needs in the relationship. That means it is his responsibility to end it (instead of both of you ganging up on her to change her feelings and...

    Introducing Kevin T

    Poly journey of Mya and rory

    You're welcome :) I have a similar experience, in that I've struggled at times with accepting that quality of Alec's. I do like processing a lot, and have sometimes felt frustrated with him because he is not like that. Doesn't mean that he doesn't talk, just that he doesn't analyse all bits and...

    Poly journey of Mya and rory

    There is a way of thought which can be seen in many people who write about poly. It has to do with "working on one's own shit" or "growing as a person"; it often comes up with regards to jealousy. Partly, it resonates with me strongly, but I do take issue with the extent to which it is sometimes...

    My tendency to over-think things....

    I really can't relate to the whole swinging/poly division that exists for some. I am open, and I am poly. Both come from the same place for me, really, from feeling like I wish my partner(s) to have all experiences they want to have and feel most happy and satisfied in life whether with or...

    Philosophical Semantics, Part I

    For the first: Person I is slightly polyamorous. Person II is moderately polyamorous. Person III is extremely polyamorous. I'd say all persons I to III can love multiple persons at the same time. Person I's preference is a polyamorous relationship, but they can adjust to...
