After many months of trying to make it work my partner is throwing in the towel. He thinks that what we want out of poly is just too different. He wants basically a commune-like living situation, with many life-partnered people living together. I just want to be a normal person who has other...

I posted this over on the reddit poly forum but was hoping for more feedback; I am feeling so lost and stuck right now.... Even though I went into my relationship with my partner wanting/planning to be poly, it has been a horrible experience for me. I don't know how much backstory to include...

Great date ends in threesome. After a while I am not really enjoying it and feeling ready to wrap it up. The other people keep going at it. No one has made me come, my primary is trying to give the other girl a second orgasm -- he has never made me come more than once, or even tried. I feel...

I had posted some very upset threads here a while back. I had a very unpleasant transition into poly, even though I was doing it willingly. Lately, things are starting to look up. I have been seeing a poly couple, and they are just wonderful. For the first time, I feel genuinely enthusiastic...

I have absolutely no desire for any other partners right now. I know in every long-term relationship I have ever been in, it was just a matter of time until I did, and because of that and a variety of other reasons, poly seemed like the right way to go. I feel like it would make a lot of...

I just found this forum and have been browsing a little bit -- I hope this is the right place to post. I could really use some help. Sorry in advance if this gets long. My partner and I have been together for coming up on a year, living together since January. It is very serious; we have...
