Spoke to her yesterday. She is surprisingly supportive. And I believe her response is genuine. Follow up: Wrong again. She countered today with an offer to "free me" if this is what I wanted and that she is "not good enough" for me. Thank you all for your thoughts, insights and support. And...

will do. Thanks

FAQ suggests contacted a moderator if my article disappears. It has. Don't know if that was intentional. It was titled Ladies: your favorite bio in polygroup links? and had gone to two pages after number of replies. rgrds OldPod

Thank you. Precisely the feedback I was hoping for. I also took a phrase from the SoloPoly.net link in your signature block and incorporated 'nonhierarchical, nonexclusive, fully honest relationships' in place of 'co-primary'. Thanks for the link and the feedback

Here is an early draft. Please be brutal. *** Renaissance Man I'm frequently called that because of my enthusiasm for my many interests. Whereas a true Renaissance Man is an expert in several areas, I rather more enjoy the adventure than the accomplishments. Here are some basics: About me 70...

Watchin' after me are ya? :) No, I haven't spoken to my wife about it yet. For one thing she is preoccupied with a brother in the hospital. To your concern, I will not be posting anywhere but here until we do have that conversation. But once we do, I want to have something that I won't be...

Thank you all. My delay in response is due to tracking your suggested links (and the links within those links ....) and thinking about your responses. So what do you think of my taking your suggestions, putting together a bio and posting it here for review and pointers? :eek: (And if that's...

Aha! So that's where the 8 suggestions I found originated (author: SmileTexas) Still, knowing the "ingredients" for a worthwhile posting in a relationship link and actually "baking" a compelling bio are not necessarily the same thing ... so I am looking for some examples (which I promise not to...

Might you give me a sense of what an appealing bio posting to a relationship-seeking site looks like? Guess I'm ready to take the plunge given the thoughtful and insightful responses from Magdlyn, kdt26417, HappilyFallenAngel, nycindie and others. So, after my wife and I have our polyamory...

A primary reason I want to get into a poly relationship is to attend community theatre plays and orchestral concerts, Renaissance fairs, wine tasting and other culinary activities that do not interest my wife. These, of course, are not free. Money is so tight that I'm working full time at 70...

I've given this a lot of thought over the last few days. I don't know if this is what you intended, Karen, but I take this to ask myself "What makes me think that I can bring joy to a new relationship that I am unable to provide in my current 39-year relationship?" Certainly a legitimate...

That makes sense. It's just that I know my jealousy complicated one very important teen-early-20's relationship and I really don't like how I was in that situation. And want to avoid burdening any future relationship with such childishness.

Thank you, Magdlyn, for your terrific and insightful comments. That's certainly how I'd feel if the situation were reversed. And sex is not my main motivation. I can't imagine re-marrying and divorce is expensive and complicated. But, we'd face that when and if it happened. NO SECRETS. At...

Hi. OldPod here. Not sure that polyamory is appropriate for my situation and would like your thoughts. My wife of 49 years and I find that mutual activities, thoughts and affections no longer exist in our retirement. (If you can call my working nearly 40 hours a week "retirement"). So I am...
