    This tiny life is making sense--travels by the CowleyRoad

    With all the crazy doubts you have Monday night I expected us to be broken up. So why did Monday night come and go and not only did we not break up, but nothing changed? Brook was as nervous as hell, and so was Sky. So I ended up doing most of the talking. I reiterated that Sky was upset...

    So now Sky and I are meeting Brook tonight, probably for the last time. There are other issues that have come up over and above Hunter's list. Mainly the fact that he wants sex from Sky, but with none of the emotional entanglements, and Sky is very resentful that she has to "take one for the...

    This tiny life is making sense--travels by the CowleyRoad

    Continued You may remember that one of the things that we feared might be a barrier to our poly relationship was Hunter's list of sexual activities that he wanted to do in his life before he would agree to the three of us having a relationship. We'd talked about it fairly extensively around...

    Tears roll down the face of the earth...I saw it with my own two blue eyes Well, it's been almost two months since I posted here. It's felt like two years. Up, down, tremendous highs, tremendous lows, fear, excitement, drama, comedy, passion, love, heartbreak. All of these sometimes in the same...

    This tiny life is making sense--travels by the CowleyRoad

    Feelings growing stronger with every embrace And no, I'm not talking about me and Brook, but between me and Sky. I never thought we could love each other more than we already did. But it has happened, and we could not be happier. Why has it happened, when we both are in love with Brook? I...

    Star Me Kitten Brook has dubbed Sky "Kitten." It's rather a sweet name. Sky doesn't like her own name, and Brook has identified a feline streak in her. I've given Brook the pet name of "Star", as she has a few star tattoos that she is rather fond of. In return, Brook gave me a necklace with a...

    Challenge: create a greeting card for a new polyamorous relationship!

    So B came out about us to her sister. Her sister was happy but mused "I suppose there isn't a Hallmark card for that, is there?" Well that got me thinking...what would a greeting card for a new poly relationship look like? I'd love to put one together and give it to B, because that's the kind...

    At love's brilliant glow Has it really been a month since I told Brook that I loved her? Sometimes it seems it just happened, and other times it seems I've loved her forever. My God, so much has happened since I last updated. A few highlights-- Sky admitted almost out of the blue that she...

    Poly Vignettes: Sharing Success & Happiness

    Thanks to B my wife made it through TWO WEEKS of her parents coming to visit. I know it doesn't sound like much but believe me, it is a miracle. Now that is a polyamorous success story if there ever was one! A more conventional success story? The three of us have fallen hopelessly madly in...

    On coming out, and false friends

    TL4everu2, I'm so happy to hear that story! As Chuck Berry sang, "C'est la vie, say the old folks, it goes to show you never can tell"! B came out to her sister today about us...her sister said "Uh, I guess Hallmark doesn't make a card for that, but congratulations!" One day way in the future...

    On coming out, and false friends

    Sorry I didn't respond earlier..in-laws are visiting. Rather difficult to discuss your wife and her girlfriend when her homophobic parents are in town. Yes, they don't know about her bisexuality either. About the question of where this poster got his "info" about polyamory...apparently it...

    On coming out, and false friends

    My wife and I have only very recently started in a polyamorous relationship. We don't have a lot of friends anyway, and the friends we do have are mostly either socially conservative or very religious. So as a result we don't talk to our friends about what we're doing. We'd hoped that the...

    Something better, something brighter Just before Sky and I left to meet up with Brook and H, weird thing #1 happened. Hunter called me to ask if I wanted to meet up later in the week. Seriously. I thought that was a good sign. Weird thing #2 happened right when Brook came to the restaurant...

    Wandering around lost Obviously it is not August 30. Being busy at work, and a computer down, and just not knowing what to write has plagued me. I still don't know what to write, but must, to get it off my chest. The bottom line is that even though Hunter agreed to let Brook go ahead with...

    Finally, there is clarity? Brook's cell phone was not the only one which died over the weekend. I called Sky at 6 to see if she was on her way home. By 7 I was getting a little antsy, because there had been no response to either text or call. So I did something which I'd wanted to do, but...

    Ugh. So frustrating

    I'm new to this place and I haven't talked here much. But Magdalyn I've managed to read a lot of your posts and it's very clear that you, well, rock. You deserve to find someone who rocks you just as hard as you'll rock them.

    Why do you use the online name that you use?

    Someone already recognized where my name on here came from and PM'd me about it. I used to live in the Cowley Road district of Oxford--a strange, vibrant and wonderful place which neatly seems to fit the community I seem to be in now, 10 years after I last lived down Cowley way.

    Jade, I wonder if it's that, or something a little more complex. Sky (who, though analytical, is very perceptive) thought Hunter might be trying to slow down the relationship between Brook and me by introducing complications. Could be. Or he just wants to have sex with a lot of people and sees...

    So, about that other guy he wants you to sleep with Everything was going really well yesterday. Brook and Sky were planning their day trip out. Hunter was in a really good mood because he had gotten a new electronic toy, and he was texting Sky and me (!) all about it. Brook went to work around...
