    Hi Everyone, I am sure there are great examples out there, but I cannot find them. Thought I would ask here.

    Thank you, everyone who replied. What a great community. I did my own soul-searching. I am not good with emotions. And maybe it is because I am a man, but I rarely need to cry, because I don't see its value as a go-to tool for emotional expression. I prefer to think and talk it out. But...

    Hi Everyone. After many years of honest discussions, my wife of over 10 years and I decided to try polyamory. We are taking it really slow and just starting with online stuff, trying to work out the feelings. That is why I am writing this post. Nothing I will say is new to the community, but...
