Good Afternoon

I am brand spanking new here. I came here to hopefully learn somethings from people who have more knowledge than I do.

I started dating/living with a man who is poly 9 months ago. I have never been with anyone in this lifestyle before. I am a submissive by nature.

I was taught that this lifestyle was wrong and it has been difficult trying to reprogram myself. I am having not jealousy issues so much as envy, fear, loneliness to name a few.

I am interested in trying poly but I can only hear what others have told me that it would make me a slut, whore (you get the idea)

I spoke to a few friends who have now pretty much disowned me.

I care for this man very very much and I want this to work but I could definitely use some advice.

thanks

Greetings newbieineveryway,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

I read your other thread, and responded there briefly. I think the main thing is defining boundaries, with consequences for breakage that you can control.

Sorry to hear about how your friends treated you. I hope you will feel more supported here.

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter"
