    The inevitable thirdness of being the third

    Just to clarify for everyone, we are indeed a triad. I've been focusing mainly on my own problems without stating how I feel for Anne. She and I are DEFINITELY romantically involved. I love her very, very much. Because the relationship is still young, I don't feel AS strongly for her as I do for...

    Tats & Piercings?

    I've "consolidated" my collection lol. Right now, living with me, I only have three. However, 4 of my cats live with my mom, and one lives with my dad. I'm also, when space allows, a "foster mom" for 3 local shelters. When I lived in a bigger house with my ex, I had 21 at one point. My ideal...

    moving in together

    I was certainly not meaning to come across as defensive, and I'm sincerely sorry if I did. Like I said, I greatly appreciate your input - it's objective, and whether or not your perceptions are wrong, it's something for me to think about. While Anne and I communicate well, I still think that...

    moving in together

    This is exactly how I feel. We're not trying to force the equality here, rather find a way to deal with the inequalities that do exist, embrace it, and then let it go. The only way out is through.

    moving in together

    I REALLY hope I don't come across as a bitch here. I don't mean to at all. Just like we were talking in the other thread about you not being in the best mindset having just been burned, I'm not in the best one either. But, we can still have a mature discussion. :) Addressing your first point -...

    The inevitable thirdness of being the third

    Just for the record, I am INTENSELY glad for your input. As someone who is discovering "filaments", it's good for me to have the viewpoint of someone on the opposite end of the spectrum - ie, someone who has been burned and had their feet cut off by that exact thing. It's healthy. :o I fully...

    The inevitable thirdness of being the third

    ^^^ See? This is why I love you, baby. And this attitude is why it will work, IMO. We'll cover it 1,000 times if that's what it takes. And I know you and Anne feel the same way. We'll get it worked out, one way or another.

    moving in together

    Just to toss this in here, I HATE NRE. I hate it. HATE. It's a hindrance more than anything to me, and really just pisses me off. I want to be past it already. In my relationship with HMA and Anne, I don't feel the NRE. At all. And believe me, I know what it feels like. I still think moving in...

    The inevitable thirdness of being the third

    I'm not sure what HMA will have to say about this one, but personally, I don't think I've figured it out at all. With some of the issues raised in my head - which don't at ALL negate my desire to be or my belief in Poly - leads me to really struggle with whether I WANT her as an equal or not...

    Tats & Piercings?

    I only have one tattoo. I got it as a memorial for my favorite kitty who passed away of kidney failure. :( I love the tat though, definitely planning on getting more! I'm such a crazy cat lady. I drew my kitty myself! We call her my "titty kitty". <3

    The inevitable thirdness of being the third

    This is a sad story indeed - it really gave me a glimpse into the way that a third person can feel when things go wrong. Being the female member of the established couple, this entire thread has got me thinking pretty seriously about some of my feelings toward Anne and about the relationship as...

    Hello!

    Hi everyone! For a bit of background, I'm engaged to a fantastic man who also just joined these boards (HappiestManAlive - looking at him, I really think he is! lol). I'm 20, currently attending college for Computer Engineering (minor in Physics), and at night I dance a few days a week at a...
