since I was doing neither, I hate to sound like a broken record, but that kinda eliminates the premise of this portion of the thread. It was just conversation until the finger pointing came to town.
This is a quote from a thread, that is not this thread, made the same time as Ms Kaos seems to have gotten in a snit over me this evening:
That, after I simply offered contact information for two polys I know in Madison, Wisconsin, where the OP resides. Then magically NeonKaos appeared to...

we are human. unlike most animals in that respect we live in a different condition that merges instinct, genetics and our individual personalities as they develop our forward logic. I think if we are "hard wired" for anything it is sex in general. By that I mean ALL forms of sexual...
Umm... I see little point in asking to delete any posts, seeing as you just edited one of yours and trolled me to an entirely different thread just to snark at me. I wish it would be a mystery how your perception of what was written got so warped, but unfortunately the answer is kind of obvious.
Thank you. After seeing how you're now stalking me out on other threads, just to accuse me of more nonsense, I have to agree. You are done.
I hate to point out how typical this is, and how little a surprise it is that you are a fellow American just looking to stir up another forum thread...
OK, this conflicts heavily with what you are trying to establish on the other thread trying to act like you are not making this personal. Now your stalking me to other threads and assuming more about me that you simply DO NOT know.

I admit, I still feel pissed, and I did a lot of dumb things even being in that relationship. Rose lied to everyone around her, and being part of that still makes me feel sick.
I admit, I was gullible. If I were making excuses, I doubt I'd be...
It has a lot to do with the dating pool here in the States. For lack of a better word, Americans are psycho. People are ill-mannered, get butt hurt over the smallest thing, are quick-tempered, and rarely ever honest or forthcoming in relationships.
Most in the US see things like polyamory...
?
I'm sorry. I have had a lot of bad relationships, but I've never dated a con artist before. Even at their worsts I've never dated anyone who sleeps with people to arrange elaborate cons, so there really isn't much reference here to establish a repeating pattern. You are basing your...
factors
There are a few mitigating factors that have tainted my dating life for some time.
Years ago, I was with a really great person that was suddenly and violently ripped away from me. That kind of got me to punishing myself in relationships since I thought it had been partly my fault and I...
Umm... yeah. It sure was my fault that she had defrauded two people to invest in a business that didn't exist, was lying to another "partner," getting the poor guy to send thousands in cash to help her by making him think that her mother was dying, and of course, lying to me and yet another guy...
Wow, was that horrible
One year later...
Well, folks, it's been about six months since I put this relationship behind me. I decided to visit this thread again and see what the gullible moron that I was had to say about the relationship I was in.
WOW. Was I ever one blindsided jackass...
I was on this group late last year looking for advice as a mono dating (what I thought) a polyamorist but what later turned out to be just a very mentally disturbed person with a lot of issue using poly as their own personal relationship cattle prod.
I got defensive here when it was repeatedly...
I thought I would share some humor, i just came up with this as a joke/t-shirt Idea.
"He-Brew, The Yiddish Coffee for men." (insert Jingle)
I thought maybe "He-brew the yiddish coffee for gay men".
True, and I have been with a lot of people very bad at relationships. And in some that were good, I was the one being bad.
I like the advice I've gotten here. It has helped.
Well now, that's negative. At least I'm still out here trying, despite what I've dealt with. I know I may just get a big fat helping of FU all over again, but I have faith that I'm doing my best and that I could be happy.
To be honest, I do have a good dose of negativity about open relationships and polyamory. The concepts do not seem any better than the traditional corruptibility of monogamy, and I've seen no evidence to prove otherwise. My samplings of it have been from places in the States like NY, Chicago...
I like this post a lot. I have already supported her very much when she lost one of her SOs who went back to mono and was no longer there for her. I'm always there for her, no matter what. She was very stressed out over it, and it made me feel bad, so I was there. The "rules" over other SOs...
