This sounds like such a healthy situation, with your husband totally helping you to be open with communication. I know what you mean about the monogamy filter, I have one too! Lol. I also find it near impossible to keep things casual, sex means emotions which mean, for me, I want to keep that...

Do I believe A question with many layers. Like asking, do I believe in prayer and ritual. What is implied in your question is: do I believe witchcraft achieves the end results it is supposed to. Well, that implies I know what those end results are indeed supposed to be. Again, implied in...

Daydreams Have you ever noticed how your day dreams and fantasies change as you get older? No longer is it all about wild sex. No, my fantasies lately look something like this... Gentleman and T are giving me a foot massage as I recline in a lounge chair in the sunny backyard at Gentleman's...

Family and social pressure I feel much better after leaving my parents place, where I was visiting for Easter. My parents more or less know I was with T while he was still married; I think they suspect I was "having an emotional affair" with T. That's why they're so against me being with T...

You express the awkwardness and the sincerity and beauty of a first foray into poly so very well. Best wishes as you continue to explore your relationship with this guy!

Yikes I've really come to emotionally know that Gentleman and I can't be together. Certainly not in the way I want. Instead of making peace with that though I find myself setting in to a kind of hopeless despair. I am having trouble seeing happiness in T and my future; mostly due to the huge...

Help can come in many forms Well, whatever happened to good old fashioned boundaries? Like, maybe it's NOT okay for her to bring their relationship inside your house (ie wearing a collar). Ummm, Hello? This is your relationship with your wife too! Sounds to me like this ass is getting off...

This is a complex situation and pointing fingers won't help you to emotionally and cognitively deal sort it out. My personal method for dealing with life situations is to ask myself some exploratory questions. So, I hope you will find the following questions helpful for contemplation, even if...

Sounds lime an amazing evening! :)

Thank you for sharing your stories with us. Omg Cookie needs to go! That is the height of being an asshole!!! I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish you the best for your upcoming marriage. :). Engagements are very exciting. :) I wanted to share some random things cuz I could relate so...

Thanks, ncyndie. :). This is what I love about this forum; my needs are actually acknowledged instead of assumed to be wrong! The issue is Gentleman's wife is not down for poly at ALL. She nearly bit his head off the one time he brought it up with her and made it very clear to him it was in no...

Get over it! OK, my crush on Gentleman is getting to be annoying. I can't seem to follow my own advice and get over it. I can't sleep and have been thinking of him all day. Ugh, talk about nre and the stupid part is we aren't even in a new relationship! All right I need some advice! What...

Oh, love This year has had so many learning experiences I hardly know where to begin. Most topically, I've fallen in love, head over heels for my partner's best friend. It's been quite the experience. I certainly didn't expect to fall for a man given all the angst I've been experiencing around...

Do you have children? My partner is also going through a divorce. It really sucks. His story is somewhat similar to yours. He's always known he was poly,but married a mono wife much too quickly when he was young. They had a child, experimented with poly (ie they met me and we started an open...

Why divorce sucks Why am I up at 2am writing a blog post you ask? Because divorce sucks. It just really, really sucks. I truly, strongly believe that a child does best when both his/her parents are in his/her life, provided both those parents are stable, of course. Well. Apparently not...

Thanks for the response! I know this is getting awfully long, lol, so I'm pleasantly surprised when someone reads it all. I read this to my boyfriend and he said something I thought was pretty important to mention, actually. That is, the three of us being in a triad relationship didn't cause...

OMG yeah!! Can I say it's been SUPER HARD as a bi woman in a relationship with a man who really really really loves women and REALLY identifies socially, emotionally with women to be poly? I totally agree; most lesbians I meet are somewhat socially conservative! They want a woman, some even...

Good for you! It's not always easy to do that. Maybe the whole traditional thing makes it so much harder for her to admit she could be poly! And yeah, it definitely sounds like she has feelings for him. She might not even be able to admit that consciously. She probably feels very happy with...

:) Well then, the thread is called "when poly goes weird" and it's currently filed under "poly relationship corner". But it's getting mighty blog-gy so please feel free to move it to "life-stories and blogs". Thank you!:D
