    Pondering sexual love & religion

    Having grown up in an atheist household, but allowed to explore religion to see if I wanted it or not, you would think I would have a family that was open to all kinds of love. Not so, not even in the smallest sense of the word. Thus, I became the black sheep of a family that thinks you should...

    Living The Simple Life

    We were talking about living on the road and such and it occurred to me to ask you if you ever considered doing something like hiking the Pacific Crest or Appalachian Trails?

    Living The Simple Life

    I am prepared to an extent. While I can't say I would go as natural as you, I do think it is a good idea to be as self-sufficient as possible. If everything went to the wayside, we are probably in a better position than those in cities. Gardening, hunting and living by a river all would play to...

    Unicorns & Unicorn Hunters - Merged Threads, General Discussion

    Thanks, Dirtclustit. I really didn't mean to get everyone stirred up in this way.

    Unicorns & Unicorn Hunters - Merged Threads, General Discussion

    You are right, we are separate people. He is a little more intelligent than I am and definitely better spoken. He is talented in music and art, whereas I like to do paint by numbers. I like to play games and read fiction, him, not so much. I guess I am not being so clear on my point, so I will...

    Unicorns & Unicorn Hunters - Merged Threads, General Discussion

    I guess this is where you lose me. I feel that any relationship takes work, whether it is "unicorn" or (for lack of a better term) "regular polyamory." Never would I expect anyone to like or love my husband or me equally. Respect goes all the way around to everyone included. I fully understand...

    Living The Simple Life

    Wow! You are definitely going what I would consider primitive. I think it is wise to educate yourself about how to live off the earth with the minimal amount of damage. I hope you find what you are looking for in that life and enjoy it to the fullest!

    Living The Simple Life

    You can make your own soap. We have made our own for years and just buy the "base" which can be made of different things, melt, pour into a mold (you can make a simple square), let cool and there is your soap. A movie you might want to watch is called "Alone in the Wilderness". It is about...

    Living The Simple Life

    My husband and I feel like we live simply. We have a small house that is in the country and really, we don't need any more space. We did have a bigger place when the kids were at home, but now they are all grown up and so it was unnecessary. A big dream of ours is to have a small camper and...

    Unicorns & Unicorn Hunters - Merged Threads, General Discussion

    I find this enlightening, all this talk about triads and "unicorn hunters." So many terms for me, a newbie, to learn. But what I take away from this, is that everyone just wants to make everyone else feel loved in the relationship. Isn't that the way it is supposed to be? I mean, when someone in...

    Hi from Eastern Washington

    I read the David Noble article and am working on the "More Than Two" website now. So much reading, but I will confess that I am very new to this idea, but it definitely follows the theory I have had for some years that people should be free to have a relationship with who they choose and how...

    Hi from Eastern Washington

    I was informed by husband that actually we probably wouldn't even qualify as swinging, so let me amend that. We have brought in another person a few times for a one time thing but again, I am talking few.

    Hi from Eastern Washington

    :) Had to look up the definition to "unicorn". We are actually interested more in the right person than the gender, if that makes sense. We can see the value in either a male or female. We've done the swinging thing a few times, but really are more interested in a "relationship" at this point...

    Hi from Eastern Washington

    Thanks Ali! I would like to chat sometime with you and pick your brain. My husband and I have talked about what we would like in a partner. We are open to a lot of things, but first and foremost, we understand that our love, our partnership comes first. This is what makes us happy. But we do...

    Thanks! Thank you Kevin. I will read up on that. It will be nice to meet like-minded people.

    Hi from Eastern Washington

    Hello all! My husband and I are curious about the Polyamory lifestyle and the difficulties as well as the benefits of this lifestyle. We are open-minded people who believe love can include just one another or several people. We are what I consider middle-aged and could never fathom being apart...
