So I'm going to start off by saying I don't know how long I'm going to keep this blog, but my therapist suggested I try journalling and traditionally I've been terrible at maintaining any kind of written record, but hey try anything twice right? My intent is for this to be a lot more stream of...

My nesting partner and I are separating. There are a lot of reasons around why but they mostly have to do with how he has been treating me as a result of being depressed for a long time. I chose to end the relationship but it's been an absolutely brutal process and I have been struggling. Last...

I've recently started seeing someone new (like in the last six weeks recently) I really enjoy spending time with him and I can see this turning into more of a relationship than a casual fling. My issue is that his other partner drives me up the wall. She isn't a bad person and they're quite...

Hoping for some advice on the best way to have a conversation with a partner about how the behaviour of a metamour is affecting me. I'm in a relationship that has become long distance in the last year. This person lives with two girlfriends. One of them is a close friend, the other one I am on...

Awhile ago I posted about my partner coming back from a date covered in marks, which we had mutually agreed on as a boundary. We've resolved that issue in the sense that everyone has had a conversation, apologies were made, and it's hopefully an honest mistake. However, pretty much from the...

A little while ago I posted a thread asking for advice about my partner not respecting my request that he be finished with his partner and have our house clean when I came home at 7:00. He and I have talked about it and he will now only be having partners over when I go out of town for a few...

Hi! This is less a question about a specific relationship and more a question about...behaviour? Advice? Nervous jitters? I live in a larger city and they have almost weekly poly get together a and I would like to go because school and crazy work periods are over for a few months and we moved...

My partner recently had a date at our house. Normally we don't bring dates home as we have a very small apartment with zero noise separation and if one of us is out on a date the chances are that the other one needs to be home for work or studying, but because of the circumstances and his date...

A little bit of context. I'm currently in a monosexual relationship with R, who is comfortable with me being poly. About two months ago R went off into the great north to tree plant. We get to speak on the phone once every five days and occasionally in between we get to send the odd text...

This came from another thread but basically I identify as polyamorous, for as long as I can remember, even before I had the words to describe it I have always felt this way. Recently I fell in love with a monogamous man. We were friends for a long time and used to talk for hours about...

I've been out of the forum for awhile (almost two years according to the little status bar eep!) and some things have changed. Currently I am in a supportive, loving, monogamous relationship with a heterosexual man who identifies as monogamous and is not comfortable with having a polyamorous...

So I've run into a bit of a problem lately. I have been seeing someone, J, and things have been going very well between us. I met J at a party in January and we started talking about books since he was starting a book club at his house. I started going to it before there was any kind of romantic...

Normally I don't write blogs or at least I'm not very good at them but with the sheer amount of things happening lately I feel like maybe it's a good time to start. I'd like to start with a little bit of history about how I came here (I know there's a biography post so maybe I will copy and...

I've been reading around a lot on the net and every so often I come up against articles/posts/discussions that refrence age in one way or another and the general idea seems to be that only people who have lived for a few decades and really experienced life and have either a family or a very...

Does anyone know of any Poly groups that meet in Southern Ontario? Not that people aren't great online but it would be nice to actually meet some people in the community

I have a small situational conundrum and I was wondeirng what people have done/would do in the same spot. My primary, T is still very new to polyamory but he has taken leaps and bounds in being accepting of it and I am appreciative of it every day. His biggest concern with it is being excluded...

My partner is very new to polyamory, he started trying it as something for me since I was having a very hard time with monogamy. He slowly accepted it and then he started enjoying it and though neither of us are ready to become a serious V or N yet there is a girl he sees every few weeks. (And...

Hi, I'm a 22 year old bi/poly female and I've always been a poly though I have just begun learning the right terms for things I've always known. I have an s/o who is just starting to explore his non-mono side and we've learned a lot from each other and now I am looking forward to meeting and...
