    Should i just take a break?

    Gala Girl has it right The first thing you need to deal with is the anxiety and depression. That combination will colour all sorts of interactions, and lead you into bad situations and head spaces. I agree with Galagirl's thinking, in that you need to express where you are, set up some...

    Feeling a Little Hurt? How do I make this blow over in my head?

    Just looking at it from here, he has been honest (I assume) in letting you know what's going on. I would also look back on how you were when your kids were younger,and also how you were when you had a kid on the way, and see if that helps to put your mind in the same place his is right now.

    From Quartz... Politics and Polyamory

    I'd agree this was a Non-Poly observation of a couple of poly communities. I'd also say that there's been a spare of recent articles on how poly folks can teach the monogamous types a thing or two about relationships and communication and so forth, and this article had some of that. However...

    What Is Romance?

    Let's get back to the Greek I feel that you may need to go back to the Greek idea of Eros, Agape and all that to get a handle on what is romance http://https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_words_for_love Personally, I feel that a truly romantic relationship has aspects of eros and agape...

    From Quartz... Politics and Polyamory

    Read this with an open mind. I don't know if I personally agree with everything in this and I can imagine people more practiced with Polyamory than me may have more to say. https://qz.com/1501725/polyamorous-sex-is-the-most-quietly-revolutionary-political-weapon-in-the-united-states/ So...

    A Journey

    So, where are we? The relationship with the Chica is a friendship. It's obvious that she wants to contact us on her terms, and that's fine. However, as I had said, that cat was out of the bag so to speak, so the wife and I have talked, so whilst not openly looking, we are both comfy with the...

    New ~ need a little advice...

    The important thing is to be honest, I feel. Let your husband know how it makes you feel about seeing him and the new partner together. That it made you feel happy that she came over before he went out on the road, and how you felt when she revealed how much she cared for him.

    A Journey

    So, we had already arranged, before the sort of breakdown detailed above, that we would go to see a gig together, just the three of us. That was last night. It fell into the same fun routine, at least for my wife and the Chica. They laughed, they flirted, and we all had fun. We're now back to...

    LSB Weight Loss Daily Goals and Accomplishments

    So, I said I had friends who wanted to take me mountain biking. So, they did. Having a great time learning, but I went down hard on a descent yesterday... Got a decent shiner, swollen and cut lip, and some entertain road rash on elbows and knees. At some point, the bruises will show up... Oh...

    Texting

    MsEmotional, you and I seem to have similar texting styles based on the above. Given that one issue I had was being told by someone that I texted too much, I maybe wouldn't read too much into it. Dome people just don't chat that much

    LSB Weight Loss Daily Goals and Accomplishments

    I keep bouncing between 190 and 200lbs, which makes me overweight. However, I actively try to stay fit. I bike to work (in South Florida) amounting to 6 miles a say, plus I try to get in a good 40 minute brisk walk with sections of jogging, in the morning. In addition, I've started to ride...

    A Journey

    But in the end it fizzled.. and I'm feel that it ended up nowhere, because I was myself. We talked a lot at the beginning, chatting, calling, finding out about each other. Call it New Friendship Energy. I cared for her. If she was on a long trip, I'd ask her to let me know she got there OK. I'd...

    A Journey

    This is going to start out in the main with what was in my introduction post, but I feel this may be a better place to carry on with the tale. So to begin with, the start of it all... So, as my title suggests, this is the start of a journey, that has been 18 months in the making. No names in...

    Correct, and ultimately, if what this ends up with is a casual friendship, then I've still gained something.

    Starting a journey

    So, further to this, I actually had a pleasant text conversation with the Chica again today, which is good Ultimately, the friendship is good and fun. But I'm letting her drive the conversation, as that's what she wants. Again, I doubt much more will come of this, but let's see, I guess

    Polyamorous Personalities?

    This. So much this. My other half is actually studying the types of stigma associated with seeking mental health help. And how that affects the likelihood you will seek help. Ideally, there should be no stigma. Seeing all psychologist should be no different to seeing a Doc, or a dentist. Twice...

    Texting

    I've just had to opposite experience. One of the bones of contention with the friend I was talking with is that she felt I would text too much. Conversely, I would get a little narked off when I would text a simple Good Morning, and not get an answer, sometimes not for hours. I understand...
