    Career Guy Looses Out to Drug Dealer? Why?

    Good call, DrunkenPorcupine. I don't think it has anything to do with your income, your owning a house, your race, or your age. It's not really about who you are; if you're chasing the wrong women, you're chasing the wrong women. It also sounds like you're generalizing. How many women have...

    Polywog.

    So my friend M texted me today all excited because he found a poly meeting group in our area. I'm stoked! We live in a fairly small place, so I didn't think that there would be any meet-ups nearby, and didn't even check. How silly of me, I know. Turns out that Franklin from Xeromag happens...

    Seven-year-old poly girl :)

    That is so adorable! I'm glad that her kids are being raised to be accepting of different kinds of love. :D

    You could probably start your own blog if you want to share your story with us, too. :)

    Jealousy, Envy, Insecurity, etc.: Merged Threads, General Discussion

    Being foreign to you and your feelings makes it difficult to assess your situation. We can offer you help by asking you questions that could help to clarify the situation for us that maybe you haven't thought of, but without being involved, we can't really do much. The reason I agreed with...

    Jealousy, Envy, Insecurity, etc.: Merged Threads, General Discussion

    Did he tell you about what happened, or did you just assume that something did based on his behavior? If he didn't talk to you about it and tell you what had happened, then he's still not being honest with you about his relations with other women, which seems like cheating. He may have not...

    My new Ai-jin

    What a sweet gift! That J- sounds like a keeper. :D I'm glad that he's opening up about it. It's difficult at first to keep everyone from feeling self-conscious. It's worth it though! I'm happy for you! :)

    Polywog.

    Okay, I'll keep that in mind and try to be sympathetic. He's already feeling bad about himself, and he hasn't even left her yet (he's going to wait until after the holidays); he feels bad about making her unhappy. They have a lot of history and two grown children, so I can understand his love...

    Polywog.

    Thank you, crisare. Your insight is very much appreciated. :) I haven't and won't bad-mouth his wife. I don't know her, and I don't have a problem with her except that he's been unhappy with and bored by her. But that's his thing, and I try to not mirror other people's feelings-- as in, I...

    Polywog.

    I'm feeling... conflicted. I got a phone call from my S at 8am a few days ago (which is unusual), and he told me that he's leaving his wife, and would like my support. We hadn't ever discussed him leaving his wife, or anything of the sort; he just dropped it in my lap. He laid out all of the...

    Religious survey

    Environmental factors influence evolution, too, actually. More of a who-survives-to-proliferate sort of way as opposed to passing on genes to your offspring that affect their fitness. I'll look for that article when finals are over. :)

    Religious survey

    You're right, of course. I misspoke (or mis-typed). I really should stop multi-tasking so much. I recently read an article about how our use of medicines like antibiotics affect the evolution of the cells in our bodies, but I can't seem to find it again. It was something about how our...

    From our exchange on the religious survey, I think we'd be good friends. :)

    Polywog.

    It shouldn't surprise us that our friends have handled this pretty drastic change with such grace since they are people we love, and would have to be at least loving, well-meaning people for us to spend time with them. But it's questioning a very deeply ingrained social norm, and we have...
