    Tales from the Time Share Wife

    I think I'm done with poly. The pleasure isn't worth the pain, and I just want a simple life. I need to focus on my home, kids, and self. I don't have time for anyone else.

    Fluid bonding/No condoms

    Going without condoms isn't an emotional thing for me, my partners think it feels better and because we have sex so often it's just easier to go without. Just as if my husband has a long term lover it just makes sense if they agree to his terms that they go without. I am barrier free with...

    Feeling excluded in poly relationship

    Why are you willing to feel like shit to protect his feelings or avoid confrontation? Is your self esteem so low that you are willing to be abused and live in fear of being dumped? Can't you find a partner who loves you? Maybe he should just be monogamous with June since clearly no one can...

    How do you 'Flirt'?

    I just go for it and don't worry about rejection. I'm not sure why people would freak out that you say you like them and want to hang out. Like, if it's a stranger, just say, "Hey, you seem like a cool person, and l would like to get to know you. Can I get your number?"

    Feeling excluded in poly relationship

    No one is forcing you to stay there. You can leave and simply state that you feel unwelcome and want to leave as it's too uncomfortable to stay

    I'm terrible at flirting. I prefer to be direct and say, "I like you. We should hang out."

    Tales from the Time Share Wife

    I wrote a note on Fetlife, making it clear that while things used to be one way, that now Nate's welcome to go out anytime he wants to when i'm home, except on our date night, and that if he chooses not to, it's not because of me. That way he can no longer blame me. He just needs to be honest...

    Tales from the Time Share Wife

    So I guess Deanna just told Nate that she may not be able to see him sexually anymore because she may be taken on as a submissive by someone. I guess it was very sudden. Terry told Nate that she is "ready to see him again," and told him that she wants a set night a week for him to go over. He...

    Not cut out for polyamory or lack of fire in relationship?

    It sounds to me like your boyfriend isn't a very passionate person. My husband is that way, most of the time he doesn't say he loves me and the bulk of my emotional needs are met by my boyfriend. I used to feel sad that his first girlfriend got the sweet puppy love from him but I have learned...

    Feeling excluded in poly relationship

    I honestly would just leave and Break up with him, he isn't treating you like someone he loves a and she isn't even treating you like a friend.

    Labels: Open Marriage Vs. Polyamory?

    I just say that we are in an open relationship. My husband isn't looking for love, he just likes having fuck buddies (he does not identify as poly) where I on the other hand need romance.

    Tales from the Time Share Wife

    My oldest has decided to move in with his dad. He'll be turning 17 next month, anyway. He's been living with me since the split 7 years ago. His dad and his wife make 4 times as much as I do, so I think that is a factor in it. (They have a newer house, eat out a lot, have nicer things etc.) He's...

    Advice on handling rejection

    I understand feeling left out, even if it were just friends I would feel that way. I don't think there is a lot you can do, especially now that your girlfriend and you broke up. i'm really sorry that you are basically left in the lurch to recover while everyone else is away. no advice, just hugs

    I would absolutely love for his wife to join the conversation since it's about her behavior, maybe seeing from other people and getting feedback would be helpful

    FWB experiment ripping marriage apart

    then what are you fighting about if she's already getting her way as you are encouraging her to do everythng that she wants and needs and never stood in her way? Isn't he married too? what does his wife think of him spending all his time with your wife?

    A more inclusive way to consider sexuality

    I definitely use to be an F but somewhere down the line it became an E. I'm a E3. I'm more mentally and physically attracted to women but more sexually attracted to men. I think a lot of that is availability of viable male partners to female partners.

    Our poly family has begun!

    But they haven't been dating a year. A year of them openly dating, sure that is long enough time to start talking about moving in together.
