    Thanks Kevin. I don't know why I keep coming back. You folks are all so welcoming, so I'm glad you don't mind me lurking about.

    Thank you all so much! I'm really amazed and thankful at the support I've gotten here. You folks have shown me what is actually possible with this kind of relationships. I obviously don't think I can go there, but have learned so much. I'm not sure where my partner and I are going, but it won't...

    Well, this is frustrating

    Oh, and would your wife really be okay with you having a romantic whatever with the Indian gal or is she just trying to give you what you want? Like you would have her permission or whatever, but how much would that hurt her?

    Well, this is frustrating

    Hmm, I'd be very interested in the story from your wife's point of view. I'm glad for both of you that you are working on your own issues and that you are closer now. I just found out that my own partner has been cheating since I was pregnant and I'm done. All that talk about honesty and he was...

    Well, he's cheating. He's been cheating since I was pregnant. I'm done.

    I will. I know that I should have already. I talk about him being in fantasy land, but I guess I've been burying my own head in the sand as well. Thank you also for the info on Poly Hell. I think I'll be printing that out.

    Thank you, I'm going to use that. And, no I don't think he has any plans financial or otherwise. It is like he is blind with his new infatuation and doesn't see any of the reality of the situation.

    I know that he flirts with her all the time. He is a chef, she is the hostess, but she is going to school for something financial, economics maybe? I don't think he's actually asked her out or anything. She knows about me, but I don't know. There is a lot of cheating going on at that restaurant...

    Well, this is frustrating

    So, I think most of the others have championed me, for lack of a better term, and they are pretty spot on. I think they are seeing more of the whole picture from my own introduction thread. I didn't intend to take over yours, but I'm somehow interested in your situation though. My partner...

    You all are right. I got my mom to come watch the little guy tonight so we are going out and can talk. I know now that I'm not ready for him to start dating. Just his crush/infatuation already has made me feel second to her, like he is putting his effort into impressing her, which is somehow...

    Well, this is frustrating

    I have. She is super nice, smart, in shape. I'm sure she has no stretch marks or c-section scars. Home is hard right now with the little guy running me ragged. I'm not super heavy, but I look like I had a baby a year ago and haven't slept since. I keep things as clean as I can, take care of him...

    Just starting to explore

    Wow, you folks are all so welcoming. I'm glad I came here. I never considered a lot of what you are saying and I don't think my partner has either. I don't think he's done all that much research into this. I'm still trying to figure out if he truly is poly, or if he just wants the freedom to...

    Well, this is frustrating

    It sounds like you have a good relationship. That honesty in my partner is one of the reasons I am actually entertaining this idea so that is great you are committed to that, and that you are working on yourself. I've been getting the feeling that my partner and I both may need to do some work...

    I suppose that is the big question. I guess the answer will be telling. Is he poly or does he just want to cheat with my approval? I'm appreciating all the stories here and learning a lot, but it is making me more confused instead of bringing clarity. I guess I need to figure out what I really want.

    Well, this is frustrating

    I'm on the opposite side of the coin. My partner is the one who wants more relationships and I'm trying to open myself up to it. We have a crazy baby boy who keeps me running and I know I haven't been able to be as attentive to my partner. I'm think that may be why he wants this. I owe it to us...

    Thanks Fallen Angel, good idea. I think putting the whole thing off for a little while is what I'd really like to do, but I know he has an interest. I don't know, lots to think about.

    Can a monogamous marriage suffering an affair have a happy poly ending?

    Such a tough spot! I'm glad he is committed to working with you. I'm just starting out here and my partner is interested in someone else, but if he was already involved before I say it is okay, then it is just cheating. I don't know if I could get past the betrayal. Good luck to you!

    I was wondering...

    Interesting. I'm new myself and just exploring the idea. You made me realize though that I would almost rather my partner wanted only sex with other partners. I suppose it doesn't matter what you call it as long as everyone is open about their intentions.

    nycidie, that is what I'm afraid of. I owe it to us both to check it out, but I just don't know at this point.
