    Is it possible to feel too much

    This is something I have struggled with in my past relationships. My last partner equated my love / passion to a blow torch. It's accurate too. I don't hold back when I fall for someone. I have trouble articulating sometimes about how I feel and so the vibe when I go inside myself to search...

    Sink or Swim

    Although I am very inexperienced in poly relationships, I have had an experience similar to yours. I think it is good you are looking into what you are really feeling, and why. Jealousy can be overcome. I know this for a fact, because when I started out with my ex-partner, I was programmed to be...

    Forums: Help or Hinder?

    I have gained mountains of knowledge, insight and perspective from these forums. I've also been able to speak to people privately about my situation who have had similar things happen to their relationships. I think the forums help me, because I don't feel alone with whatever is happening. If...

    Have you always known if you are mono or poly?

    There has never been a moment when I knew either way. I was raised and learned from an early age to be mono. I attended a Catholic school from K-8th grades. I always crushed hard as young'un, and beyond. But I was mostly faithful to whoever I was seeing, through misery and bliss. As I am new...

    Tats & Piercings?

    I have my ears pierced to 0 gauge currently. They've been that way for a few years and I've recently been getting the itch to go a little bigger. I have one tattoo. It's in my avatar and was done by my friend Artie in my bedroom. He was just out of rehab and on parole and was working on a...

    Communication

    As I am very new to polyamory, I am still trying to get grounded and figure things out. As it is now, I feel my partner and I have been able to resolve our current issues and move forward. The biggest factor that seems to impede our progress is communication. We are currently going to couples...

    How important is it that everyone be friends?

    I just called her and said, this is hard for both of us. I think it best if we just take some space until Wednesday night (when we're supposed to get together) and see how we feel then. I told her I love her and then I got off the phone. I need to take care of myself so after work today, it's...

    How important is it that everyone be friends?

    Yes, one of my big concerns is self preservation and showing up for myself. The hardest thing is letting go of someone you love, because it will hurt to not be around her in the same capacity. I have a very strong relationship with her 3-year old, too. It's like these things I can't give up, but...

    How important is it that everyone be friends?

    She says she doesn't want me to poison their relationship. That it is separate from her and me. She doesn't want ME to talk to him. She has made the ultimatum that if I do, I will be dumped. What you say you would wonder about, Redpepper, is exactly what I have been thinking. I feel that she...

    How important is it that everyone be friends?

    What about if you haven't met your partner's other interest and she is avidly against reaching out to him. Is this a red flag?
