You people are wonderful :):):)

Well put. I just emailed that to my partner. Thanks

After all that heavy theory, how about something totally banal? From Junior Church "Love is something, if you give it away (give it away, give it away) "Love is something, if you give it away, you end up having more "It's just like a magic penny, hold it close and you won't have any "But give...

Haha this is an amazing website! I'm more Northern (English) Methodist by background, and am currently rather less committed to my faith than Jasmine. As is pretty common with people on here, I find the whole polyamory concept resonates deeply with many aspects of my life-- my libido, my...

Haha - let's hope it's in the swag of books ordered from Amazon, then!

Eek! Sorry, folks. Abuse & rape is so far away from my experience (aren't I lucky). I guess I can be a little naive sometimes. I hope I didn't offend.

Oh yeas, of course, I did say before I started that I was going to be over-exuberant because of my mood. :) The whole point of exploring these areas of our psyche is to be open to express our true feelings, isn't it? I think perhaps that element of 'everyone's doing it' coercion that (I'm...

Actually, yes, I think I could believe that. Personally I am pretty happily hetero, and there are so many great women out there . . but if I met a really special guy . . who knows? I hope I wouldn't close my mind.

Some great posts folks, you all come across as wonderfully thoughtful, intelligent and compassionate folks. Pleasure to be here. I particularly like saudade's "anyone who knows that they don't have to be monogamous and chooses to be anyway deserves credit enough to be trusted with their own...

"unable to love without craving for sex" sounds like a fallen angel to me!

Mr Rusty Bit silly and not at all poetic, this. It goes back to when we first set up a computer network in the office. We were a bit bored by the normal computer names so decided to theme them. I guess most people used Star Trek ship names - no? Anyway we went for Anglo/French kids...

No no - not a shagfest! I can see how a couple of you have interpreted what I wrote - so before that goes off in a silly direction I don't think the world should be a shagfest. I just mean that in an ideal world we should be as initimate as we are comfortable with, with whoever we feel...

Hey, just come out of a conversation with my poor hurting mono partner - poly is new but feels like a homecoming to me. Anyway we talked about guys she has enjoyed in the past. How wonderful is that, less than a week in? What a woman! Bear that in mind - I am on a bit of a high as you read...

Haha - aren't we all that really? Spirit and body ineffably joined. My religious past is leaking through now. Must be that comment about angels, I've never been called that before. :-P

School Hey - perhaps we should campaign to get polyamity taught in schools? How cool would that be, and what sort of world might it make?

Any Advice See - you just know. Or you could walk my road of ignorance and repression and pretend you are not for thirty years and see what kind of havoc that wreaks with your life and your psyche. In your position I would struggle with the idea that I was expected to give up the new love...

Jack out of the box Hey, Zenchild. You can always ASK, and in this case I am happy to reply :) Unfortunately I have gotten it all a bit wrong and not only waited 30 years to find out what I already know -well, I guess the revelation is that I'm not alone (damn that is such a cliche)- but it...

Hey, yeah, you put it very well. I am literally a day from the lights coming on, and have not confronted my partner face-to-face, although I've been writing to her explaining what's going ion. It felt really good to realise I actually love her much more than I thought I did, because I thought...

Hey! I came across some articles about Polyamory on t'internet for the first time yesterday. What an epiphany! I am past fifty and I have been repressing this in myself for over three decades. Can you imagine the relief to find it's not the case that I am incapable of proper love? Can...
