Yeah. So there's that. I feel free in some respects (not even just to be poly if I want) but I am also scared. It just happened last night so there's obviously a lot up in the air, but that's what happened. He said he's been unhappy for a while and doesn't feel important to me anymore because...

You just summed up my internal feelings so accurately. Thank you :) And I hope things smooth out for you and I both!

All good points, thank you. I am, indeed, working on making my needs known. It can be very hard for me, as I was raised in a very restrictive environment. I've been reading stories on these boards all day to try to sort things out within myself and to keep from thinking too much about our...

Name meanings ~ (I picked most these without knowing what they meant, and thought it was interesting.) Nyala ~ 'Beautiful antelope' Nissa ~ 'Friendly elf' or 'To test' (M) Holden ~ 'Deep valley' (M) Daith ~ 'Beloved' Willow ~ 'Graceful' Tulla ~ 'Strength' or 'A little hill' Nyala...

Thanks for your feedback. And yes, after thinking about it I realized it didn't go horribly. I mean, we even had some great snuggle time after our initial talk, and have been lovey all weekend (no sex, I'm on my cycle). Last night when we talked on the phone, he promised to read more of the...

I know it. I'll be talking with him again tonight. It's easy to say what needs to happen, but in the thick of it, when it feels like my family is at stake, I got intimidated. He has a way of being passive-aggressive about things sometimes rather than just coming out and saying what he needs and...

I am in love with my husband. I just don't feel like he meets all my needs and wants, and I only have one life. I want it to be as full of love, understanding, and fun as possible. And for a lot of reasons, some being our life situation, some being his personality, I can't get all of it from him.

I can love more than one person at a time. And I don't want to have to hide that from my husband. I am grieving right now, I feel as though I'll have to choose and I so don't want to do that. I didn't choose to be like this, and if I could make myself just be in love with my husband and forget...

You can read about my story here... http://www.polyamory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=25643 So I had the talk with my hubby and it went okay for the first hour or so and then it just... didn't. I'm not sure where we derailed, but I when he made the comment 'so, you want to do this why? because...

I should say ~ we talked about it once, a couple of years ago, and his words were that we'd have to have a lot of trust and history built up, which I feel we do in some ways. In other ways, we've been through a lot of bad experiences in the past couple of years, but we're closer for it, so...

Hi, I am a 29 year old mom of two. I've been married for two years, with my DH (dear husband) for four years. I am interested in poly, and am planning to talk to my hubby about it soon. I'll call him Honey Pie. I am interested in a couple of people, one of whom is a male friends of ours, who...

Talking to SO about being polyamorous How do I do it? I don't know if he'll be into it or not. I think he will be after I give him the positives, or he'll at least 'let me' be poly. But really, tell me your stories. How did you bring it up? How'd it go? Has anyone left a partner because they...

It works great! and I am sensitive too, and have no issues with it :D

How did you talk to him about being poly? Was it hard? What did you say? I'll be talking to be SO soon....

I am hoping to talk to him this evening.... wish me luck and send me good vibes!

Amazing. You are a wonderful husband!

Thanks for that. I've been thinking about your 1st reply all evening, and I am planning to talk to him gently, and soon. And, I will do it when we are most relaxed and comfortable together, which will probably be after a couple of drinks ;) And after bringing it up that way, I'm sure we'll...

Yeah, I realize I shouldn't have talked to the other guy first. It just kind of happened one night when we were hanging out. Just a couple nights ago. I've been feeling poly for a couple of years,so it's not like I want to open our relationship so I can sleep with this one guy. And thank you...

Hello! So here's the long story short. I am a very loving person. I often find I have way more love and attention to give to others than they can handle. I've been interested in poly for at least a couple years, but I don't think my hubby is into it. I've tried to talk to him about it a...
