Duly noted. And fixed.

I'm not sure what flopswoggled means, I hope it's like mindboggled. As the male half of a long-term couple (oh shoot.. what is it? 8? 7? years, something like that)... we've had our share or adventures. None have been deeper or longer term than with "R." It was with R that my wife and I...

I agree about abusive relationships. I'd like to point out that abusive people usually hold a lot of anger against themselves and others that runs pretty deep, and it is possible to get over this (possible, not common). I've also noticed with some people in my life, they go through some dark...

Welcome to the site! I think you're like many couples out there who, especially when first exploring poly, consider themselves looking only for a third individual (whether man or woman, usually woman it seems). This woman is the unicorn (a bi chick who wants you both). If you check out over...

It was a big step for us to stop actively searching and pining after a third. I've spent some time the last few days here updating and putting us out there, but it's more of trying to be part of the poly community. From reading so much of this site, it doesn't really seem like a couple goes...

That makes a lot of sense and describes someone i know very well. Thanks!

Not to necro a topic that's been dead for a few months, but I felt like I should probably post here as the most active user of a shared account. We're a him and her, and the Him (me) is far more active here, although she browses, reads, and posts as well. We're a shared enough relationship...

I have to say, seeing a unicorn and understand what they're going through is really refreshing. As unicorn 'hunters' (seekers?), we've come across many women who are searching, but it turns out they're attached and just looking for a playmate, something that was left out of a lot of profiles...

Sport sex? The whole casual aspect of sex for me doesn't really exist. No emotional connection = little reason for sex. However, recreational/enjoyment/non-procreational, yeah, absolutely, I just need emotions.

Lover-friend. I like that! I think it's a very good term.

Oddly enough, a simple term might help. Friends-with-benefits. I don't see it used in terms of established relationships and poly very often, but I can see how it fits what you're looking for. It's something my wife and I have dealt with. A friend you can connect to, hang out, go to movies...

Hi lostinlove. Thanks for coming and sharing your experience. I think the first thing people wrestle with with Poly lifestyles is the complications. Whether we intend it to be complicated or not, it can easily become so. A mono, man-woman relationship has it's share of complications, but...

Hi Confused, My wife went through this, as did several friends of ours. One has embraced the poly, another has determined due to her religious feelings she must be straight regardless of her feelings, and another decided she couldn't "handle" the stress of a multi-person relationship. And my...

My wife and I never experienced jealousy since we've figured out we are and should be polly. I have some insecurity issues with her and guys, although that's been swept under the rug from what our experiences tell us. She's never really had jealousy, it just doesn't exist for her, which is...

About Her and Him Hi. For now, I'll leave us at Him and Her. We're a couple, and this is being handled by the Him end of it. We're young, 23-24, we've been married since 2007, and dated 2-3 years before that. Early in our relationship, which began in high school, of course, my now-wife decided...

Hi all, Guess my journey here has been a bit rough (some registration and such issues). So I want to be more poly-aware. Not to jump on the whole 'coming out' stereotypes but... For the longest time, I felt like my wife and I were alone. Like it was just us who wanted a bigger relationship...
