    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    WOW! Your post really gave me goosebumps! Truly. I'm still even shivering them off as I type this. What a spooky coincidence, and I'm very sorry to read your story. I hope you're doing okay. And those are exactly the thoughts I am having with my own Mr Hot Sex -- I'm so wrapped up in NRE that...

    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    To be honest, I really can't say. But with all this NRE with my boyfriend, I'm convinced I want to have his babies, etc. This is obviously not something I think my partner could deal with, nor would I expect him to. Your situation sounds similar to mine -- how does your boyfriend cope with your...

    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    Wow, thank you so much. I suppose that's part of my problem -- when does this all stop? Is there a point with polyamorous people where we reach a limit? Why is enough enough? I feel like monogamy is so much simpler as easier at times...but then is that just another case of me wanting what I...

    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    Thank you SO MUCH Shaya! You've been invaluable -- unfortunately I am unable to address any of these issues with friends or family since my lifestyle is FAAAAR too "controversial" to talk to them about. But you're right, I do need to wait a little and seriously consider my options. I'm only just...

    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    I want both of them, yes. But both of them want me, alone. To themselves. If we still lived on the same continent this might be manageable but it's not optimal long-term. It's still early days though -- do you have any advice for when it's a good time to tell them my hopes?

    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    I suppose that's part of my issue, I want BOTH in my life but I can't have both...so I'm almost asking for someone to tell me what to do because this is seriously so confusing. I realise this isn't the way to go about it, and I'll have to call for some decision-making of my own. Thanks for the...

    I'm in an emotional shitstorm and I don't know what to do

    Alright, so I'm a 33 year old bi-sexual female who has been in a fantastic and loving relationship with her male partner of 7 years. But before I begin, I thought I'd give a very brief background. I've been a a serial monogamist -- I've had 3 long-term boyfriends since age 21, the third...

    Long-time reader. New-time user...and boy do I have issues!

    Hi everyone! I am a 33 year old (bi) female in a long-term heterosexual relationship, who is new to polyamory. I have my partner of 7 years, and I have my boyfriend of 3 months (who I've known for a long time). I'd always imagined polyamory to be somewhat of a luxurious lifestyle choice, until...
