Sitting around the break room Monday, one of the lads was being harassed, teased, given shit on his recent GF situation. They have been dating going on 3 yrs and within the last 6-8 months moved in together. Recently she requested they dial back their relationship to “casual." The subtext was...

Because google knows everything what I’ve commented on here or emailed various friends my YouTube page has a great variety of videos to watch and recently there were some on a poly mono couple converting a 17 yr marriage which I guess happened a few yrs back at this point( google / YouTube was a...

Several months back I participated in a thread in which the couple had opened up a couple yrs prior but the wife had more or less remained mono or hadn’t really clicked with anyone. And now ( around the time of the husband writing the thread) she went a little crazy and in her ideal world would...

We lost a pioneer and an unofficial poly forefather today at the ripe old age of 91. Wouldn't surprise me if he had a blow out from the use of viagra. A ledgenary figure both on and off the court I'm sure that how he would have wanted to go. God bless and we thank you and salute you...

Happy birthday, Waldorf! :D Or are you Statler? I never remember.

I ran across this article today and it seem to touch on several topics that get discussed here quite frequently. http://boldlygo.co/?p=205 ....time management, veto power, abuse, enlightenment, poly superiority, appropriation, etc. Does the author have some valid points? Do these conditions...

Thought might be fun to crush three threads in one....just to see what shakes out. :D I put up Liza Minnelli.... American gigolo

Anyone ever been to or heard of a funeral in which one of partner was poly? or openly poly. That situation would make for a interesting conversation or 2....hierarchy could rear it head, picking caskets, receiving line issues, clergy issues, obituary, who's going to get up and...

I've read on several threads in which the relationship(s) collapse-- "Don't blame polyamory." Or, "The problem wasn't poly, it was bad communication, or the lies and dishonesty." In my own situation, people have said similar things, and I wouldn't argue it at all. But it seems like when it...

Over the past few months, I've had a few meetings with my estranged wife, and I noticed on the second meeting that she smelled like an old lady. Typically in the past, she wore rather expensive perfume. It seemed expensive to me, anyway. You could only purchase it at big department stores like...

My current situation has changed. My wife, who I'm separated from, who lives in another city, wants desperately to reenter my life. "Wants to dedicate the rest of her life making it up to me and the kids." She wants to meet and spend time repairing. The wrinkle is, I'm dating a couple other...

If you've been here for any length of time, you see the same pattern or story. I myself have that exact same story. After a number of years [...], fill in the blank, in my case, 15 yrs married, 18 total, my spouse says: - I think I'm polyamorous. I have feelings for other people. I love you to...

Yesterday had a conversation with a young guy wanting me to become partners in a business venture. My mind went to what would be everyone's responsibilities, time and focus. Once down that road I saw some similarity to a poly partnership in respect to time and focus and attention. How...

I guess I too would be considered a struggling mono, for now. I've posted some questions and made comments on other threads, so my story is around in here. @sage, I'm not sure if you and I have directly communicated or not. Forgive me if we have. How long have you been in this type of...

Do poly members of poly-mono relationships find comfort in and like the fact that their partner or partners are mono? Or would it be much easier if they (the mono ones) were also poly with multi-partner relationships? There has been talk about the specialness of being the one and only from the...

In honor of Valentine;s Day, people could recount their most treasured dating moments. I was writing on another thread and accidentally tripped on a very fond memory. Who knows? It might help set the mood. Happy V Day. And to those of you who are in Vs, that goes double.

Hi, I just thought of another question. In the mono world, the intimate act of sex has sacred status. In the poly world, that sacred status is given to furniture, places, rooms, sexual positions or acts, shower stalls and even shoes. "You can wear my partner, so to speak, but I draw the line...

Hi folks. I had a interesting discussion last night with my wife. I think she was trying to be supportive by saying I was her primary, and blah blah. At which point I said, "What if I don't want to be the primary?" I think she said, "I want you as my primary." I said, "In poly, isn't everything...

Hello, I'm just another FNG with roughly 1000 questions. Back story is married 15 yrs, 2 kids, house, dog, etc. About 7-8 months ago I was reluctantly pushed into this lifestyle. It seems I was sold one thing and I really haven't realized the benefits yet. Like I said, I have lots of questions...
