pros you tend to smile more which makes the people around you happier you have a more positive outlook on many things it feels soooo gooood! cons can bring out small insecurities (why didn't he/she contact me yet) can make you go "too fast" or want "too much" "too soon" can make you forget...

Oh, ouch! Ok, so maybe that did come across poorly, but it is more just pointing out that we don't have a lot of experience socializing with the LGBT community in person and that he (hubby) might be a little more squeamish than me if I were to date a bi-man. I definitely did not mean to imply...

I'll be the first hetero-female to chime in one this one. I'm honestly not sure. To the best of my knowledge, I do not know any bi- men in RL. I may still suffer from a little bit of stereotyping, but if I was to form a relationship with a bi-man then I think that these would disappear rather...

Cajun and I had an LDR before I finally moved to Minnesota. I was in Chicago area and that is about 7-8 hour drive. We emailed each other...well I should say we sent short stories to each other as that is how we used to write emails, lots and lots of information, talking about everything, etc...

If you have not yet, next time you see her flat out ASK HER if there is a problem. She may not even realize that her lack of "attention" is hurting you and your son and probably her kid(s) too. NRE makes us blind to many things, especially whether or not we are neglecting prior relations and...

So we talked again and were in the middle of setting up the get together and he disappeared again. Could be bad connection or something, that's fine. I sent him a message Sunday night telling him I'm still interested in meeting him and asking if he was changing his mind or had any concerns. No...

I think there is a slight difference between judging someone and choosing not to participate in something. For example, I disagree with cheating and choose not to participate in it whether in my own relationship or as the partner of someone who is. I do not say "You are wrong!" I say, "I'm...

Now that definitely deserves a "like" button. :) I keep thinking you guys need to write your story down and get it published. The ups and downs, all of it. So inspirational! Why should we be the only lucky ones who get to vicariously share this part of your lives?

To continue with the above notions, No, I would not. In fact I have had to recently deal with a guy who claims to want an open relationship with his wife but isn't ready to tell her or deal with the fallout or whatever other chickensh!t he can come up with. I had to go so far as to say that if...

Thanks BL, I like what you say about it not being a debate, but just telling a decision. We are already working on a "never know" list which unfortunately, at present, include basically all of Cajun's family. It's hard, but considering his parents never really approved of me, something like...

Our first attempt at opening kinda went bust (see my other threads). The bonus with that was that Elric and I had been friends for a long time so staying at a hotel 400 miles away while I helped my friend go through some tough times wasn't too much of a stretch. That is a good idea though. I...

Welcome

That's why we've waited this long to say anything. There just hasn't been a good reason to rock the boat. I'd hate to leave it to the "last minute" but I don't want to possibly upset her needlessly. Cajun and I have had more talks recently about what we want and I am still interested in opening...

So we've had and seen discussion on coming out to family and friends, but what about other persons in the household? My mom is living with us, helping around the house and with taking care of our little one. She will be very helpful when the addition comes and I personally don't know how well...

I hate NRE. Can't control myself sometimes and get over eager. Well, hopefully we'll see if I scared the guy off soon. At least this time is was only short lived and not almost a year worth of emotional turmoil. *edit to add rant and thoughts... Here's the problem. When something like this...

I see a few possibilites. #1: Married men going after women is "wrong". This is a societal norm since the "accepted" idea of this is cheating. Although there are some women who are willing to cheat or be the mistress, I don't think that number is very high. When a woman (most especially a mono...

I can comment from both sides of the age spectrum I think. First as adult (poly), although I didn't "spring" it on Cajun that suddenly and he was a lot more accepting of the possibility of Elric and I becoming very serious than the guy in the video. Second as Mommy (child). We have been...

Yep, definitely getting those NRE hormones ramping thanks to OKC and a Ren Faire costume. lol I received a message from a gent who was very interested in meeting me and finds me very attractive. We've talked a few times this week, nice long convos, some flirting, a bit of discussing what we are...

I may be suffering from a slight case of NRE...more details as they come. :D

I absolutely love reading this thread. :) Fills me with hope and inspiration. Glad you guys had/are having a great camping trip!
