In my case, Exes are Exes for a reason, and usually for a very a good reason. Generally I've found taking picking up things with an ex again tends to end up in the same places, but worse or quicker or both, never had a positive experience with a round 2. So in practice I don't date my exes again.

Bad hygiene is a major turn off for me, So yeah that would be a deal-breaker. 'Specially on a first date. Best foot forward, and if that's their best foot, I'm not interested.

-Occasionally. -What is a "black" event? -Yes I have a few friends that identify as African decent of some kind or another. -No. I don't believe there are many race-segregated clubs in my area. -Occasionally. I don't go out of my way to mix soscially with people of other cultures, at the...

Locally, most of the (organised) poly community seems to be white, (or mixed-race) by majority with a sprinkling of exceptions. They also seem to be mostly middle class working folks (mostly white collar, with a few blue collar or trades in the mix) and in the 25 - 35 age group. As a side...

I met the wife thru a mutual friend one summer evening many years ago. We lived very close to each other in the neighbourhood, and apparently I had caught her eye weeks ago in passing, on a bus. (Although at the time I hadn't noticed her... yet.) I met the girlfriend outside a bar I frequent...

To our friends; Me and the wife are very open with how we operate, everyone who knows us knows how we have additional relationships which is nice because when one of us ends up with an additional partner they usually have a much easier time integrating into our social circles as the behaviour...

In my experience, it's always a terrible idea to dip your quill in the company ink, or in the company ink of a SO. If things go poorly it can cause serious issues, dramma and gossip around the workplace, and in some cases can result in one or both parties getting fired. And sadly if things go...

There's a few poly folk locally, but I move in different social circles than they do. We have some overlap within the BDSM community but don't really have much to do with each other. The local poly group also tends to run events that conflict with my work schedule so I normally don't make it...

As a general rule I wont enter into a relationship with someone who is actively cheating. That being said; for a brief period a few years ago I was involved with a long time friend who was cheating on their long-term significant other. (also a long time friend of mine) Tragically her long...

-Accept that she may attract more partners than you and that life isn't an equal equation. -Learn to enjoy the happiness of your SO. failing that; -Develop charm, build your confidence and skills, meet people.

:D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tqEBQjWRws I believe this needs to be here.

I love douchebag. Everything they are and do makes me look better by comparison. :D Funny story . . . . . .

= At least I would think so. Also, even if you are a secondary relationship to him (which it sounds to me your being cast as) it doesn't mean you should be treated as a second-class partner.

Rule of life#345 People close to you will make mistakes. Mistakes are not worth dwelling on.

Male, 29, heterosexual 1. Who is all inclusive of your polyamorous group? At this point Myself (obviously), My wife, two girls referred to as J/1 and J/2 2. How many partners do you have that you live with? One, my wife. 3. How long have you been together? Me and the wife have been together...

May I also suggest the questions "how many partners do you have that you live with?" Five single persons dating five other single persons each for example, all have complete financial autonomy from each other, which would slate a data trend one way, wheras a sextuple of three couples sharing a...

Yes, This I am aware of. I'm a bit of a knowledge junkie, I think I may just do that.

LOL! Oddly my wife does exactly that on occasion. I do agree in principle that a lack of romantic attention would be made worse if it was seen as an imbalance of attention instead, if one thinks of it as a limited resource similar to water. (IE: It is not that there is NO romantic...

Keep your chin up. Having spent a year with someone with a very similar set of illnesses (BDP, SAD and chronic depression, not to mention another whole mountain of social difficulties) I know the difficulties of dealing with that kind of a partner, if you haven't learned yet that no matter...
