I am very affectionate with my friends, family, kids, and partners.... everyone else better stay away or be prepared to get a bloody nub! I have stepped back/away from people I don't know trying to hug me. I must say that I do feel bad for them when they realize that they've just made a huge...

Feelings... oh oh oh feelings I know that in triads that all the participants don't feel the same about each other. That one person can be more into one than into the other in all the perambulations that exist. So, that said, why I certainly like Lovely, I'm fairly sure that she's more into...

Well, because of a babysitter falling through, we didn't have a date night. However, we were having a bbq on Sunday before Memorial Day so she and her daughter came over. Probably a strange first face-to-face meeting, but it went really well : )

Ya know, I'm a very well read person. I read all kinds of stuff and I read all the time. That said.... that doesn't mean that I (or other people new to poly) know who Fisher and Ury are. ::shrug:: I've never read one book about polyamorous relationships. Of course, it's not like I have a huge...

rofl!!!:d:d:d

VERY well said!

This was good to find. My gf just asked this evening what, how, and when we're going to tell the children. Our kids are 20,12,10, and 9. Bear and I have three boys, Lovely a girl. The 20 year old has lived with me his entire life, nothing I do really surprises him. He's kind of used to mom...

You're normal! Of course, as an abpsych prof I once had asked, "Just what exactly is "normal"? I think that what's normal is totally subjective (barring things that are completely immoral such as pedophilia, etc.)

Here's my take on it... Bear and I have been married for seven years. When we met I was very open with him about my sexuality. He assumed that meant that he would get to have two girls in the bedroom every now and then. I assumed that the girl-loving part of my life was over. Neither of us...

Thank you for all the input. Y'all have certainly given me food for thought. And, unless she asks, I'm not going to mention Lovely : ) We'll see how that goes.

I guess I expected her to ask about Lovely, and she didn't. ::shrug:: Maybe I'm reading too much into nothing LOL

Generally my sister is a very open-minded person. I had told her a few other very close friends that Bear and I had decided to pursue this lifestyle. There was no reaction really. I said that we had a date with Lovely. No comment. Today I tell her that we are officially dating Lovely. She...

So, I've been reading what you've been writing. I gotta tell ya... he'd be drawing back a bloody nub. I agree with looking at information about sex addicts because I think the guy has a pretty serious problem going on.

It's official Lovely is officially "our" girlfriend. She and I were talking this evening, we had a very odd conversation. Tonight was the first time either one of us has ever had this type of conversation... about poly in general, if she wants to date the other guy (she doesn't), fluid...

Getting a complex here I'm starting to get a complex...someone, most likely lots of someones look and perhaps read this little blog of mine, but no one comments... LOL

If we had a "like" button, I'd click on it : )

Regardless of the poly lifestyle, I would think that perhaps you two need to reconnect. I'm totally new to this whole thing, but what I understand about polyamory is that we aren't replacing a love but adding a love, to put it simply. I wonder, were you already drifting apart? Had you already...

Well now, that's an interesting reaction I missed a conversation between Bear and Lovely this weekend. It seems that her daughter's best friend's dad, who is her friend, has been crushing on her for about a year. She just found out about it. My first thought? She should date him! And us, too...

I find it interesting that a lot of the responses were about sex. When I read the original post I thought about other matters that come up within relationships that one might not want to have shared. Medical problems, job issues, arguments with a friend, problems paying a bill, etc, etc. Just...

A great visit Our plans for a date Saturday night fell apart. That happens when you have kids! However, we did manage to meet! We had a little gathering/bbq at our casa yesterday, Lovely came to visit. We spent hours talking. She's really quite fun to be around. Gets most of the corny jokes...
