    Jealous husband wants to go back to monogamy

    Have you guys read "more than two"? It is brilliant, and if he is willing, I would recommend you and your husband read it together, I have also heard great things of The Jealousy Workbook, but not looked at that myself.

    Re-introduction

    Haven't been on here for over a year as due to work commitments I didn't actually spent time actively looking for a girlfriend. Had a date back in March which didn't work out but I started chatting to a woman online in April as a friend and we have grown closer. Met up last month and we really...

    "Coming out" and the drama that ensued

    Are there any employment advice centres nearby you can access? Do you guys have constructive dismissal policies over there? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructive_dismissal

    2 long term couples creating a quad, help!

    Say's who? As far as I am aware, Open relationships encompass all aspects, swinging would be exactly that, swinging. To be more precise, in most social contexts, open relationship isn't using for swinging, it is used for hierarchical polyamory as opposed to non-hierarchical polyamory and...

    Puzzled???

    I go back to my previous reply. I honestly think you should (either one or both of you) considering dating separately , if something happens, and you end up as a triad, great, but if you have a lovely relationship that isn't a triad, then great too. I haven't been here long but it seems the...

    Thoughts on being his secret?

    Some will probably say my opinion is a double standard but I don't think so. If I was dating guys then no, I wouldn't be their secret. But with a woman I see it differently if she is just looking for a relationship with another

    Puzzled???

    Apparently two people here can't even read. The original poster said she knows these women and their husbands. No assumptions involved. Back to the original question. I think most triads develop from an existing poly v , either open or closed so maybe consider dating separately and see what...

    Fun post-Mistakes you have made when you are not "out"

    That's good. I told one of my close friends the other day, planned, but wasn't sure how she would take it. Turned out she has a few friends that are Poly so wasn't much of a shock to her

    Fun post-Mistakes you have made when you are not "out"

    Or Out to a certain group of people. Other than close friends no one knows I am searching for a girlfriend with my husbands blessing, mainly because he doesn't feel at this time he is ready for others to know. Anyway, I posted on my 5:2 diet facebook group that I may fast on Sunday if I don't...

    Poll-Have you come out (as poly)

    well, telling a second friend today went a lot easier than expected. I casually brought the subject up, and she was like "oh, polyamory", and I was shocked she knew about it, but apparently quite a few of her friends are polyamorous so it's nothing knew to her

    Poll-Have you come out (as poly)

    I see what you mean PiP. I think in my head I meant out to most day to day people (ie immediately family, friends, work colleagues), but I can see how it is vague too. It is hard to quantify in such poll options.

    Poll-Have you come out (as poly)

    I can see there is threads on advice for coming out, and experiences, but just wanted to gauge numbers (partly personally, partly being nosey. For now it will just be very close friends that know about our situation (I have told one best friend, and I plan to talk to another tomorrow). If and...

    Why and how did you get into poly?

    Good on you for BF'ing till they self weaned. I didn't manage BF with either child (a combination of my health and issues on their end making feeding harder) but am very pro BF and advocate of BF rights xx And I wholly agree with your second paragraph. I wonder how much post natal depression...

    My Poly journey

    Just thought I would start a blog post to have somewhere to keep my thoughts and feelings. I am married(have been for 8 years), 30 and female. I do wonder if this is something that my inner self has been trying to tell me for a long time , but not knowing any "normal" people living like this...

    Polysaturation?

    For me I think 2, but not sure about perhaps being polysexual with others on top of this, I/we are very new to this, so no experience yet though. My crush, who I hope becomes my girlfriend and I are just emailing at the moment. We both have partners and children, plus she has a new job and is...

    Why and how did you get into poly?

    For us, we (or should I say I because at the moment he isn't interested in dating anyone else) got into Poly because of my sexuality. I am bisexual, I probably rate about 4 on the Kinsey scale (mainly homosexual but more than incidentially hetrosexual), I have no desire to leave my husband, I...

    Is it Poly and anyone else Mono/Poly?

    Is it Poly and anyone else Mono/Poly?

    Sue, thankyou, it is good to read peoples experiences. I don't *think* I would ever want another man as a partner, other than my husband. Nothing to do with how he would feel about it, but , just me, I would say I am definitely a 4 on the Kinsey scale of bisexuality, if it wasn't for my...
