Hello all,

I'm Jay.
29 years old, male.
I'm a lab technician and photographer.
And I love.

I was introduced on this forum as j, in Robin's story.
I'm Joyce's bf.
As I'm introduced as j, I'll stick to the name. Only a bit modified. :)

My intro might be a bit confusing to read, as I'm slightly dyslectic.
And there is the fact my life just did a vertical U turn.
And is now turned upside-down.

Most people here who say that here mean: eh, I I think I'm poly. Help.
Or: my partner has just gone poly. Help.

Well, being able to love several people at the same time was not a big surprise for me. That has always felt natural.
Being bi wasn't either. Even as a child I was very secure about my sexuality.
Some times it was a boy, other times it was a girl I fell in love with.
Never really cared for the shapes and sizes of wobbly bits, they're all fun to play with.

I'm married to c, my wife.
When I met her we found out we viewed love and gender the same way.
We have been married for 4 years.
Have 2 kids.
The relationship is 8 years old.
We worked to an open or poly relationship from day one.
It ended last Saturday. Not the poly thing, but the relationship with c ended.

3 years ago c and I lived in a triad for a year with a guy m.
That triad had a rough start and a violent ending.
The middle part was nice and happy.

5 months ago, Joyce and I discovered that the feelings we had for each other for years were mutual.
Robin and I had a long conversation in witch at the end I asked robin if I could ask Joyce if she would be my girlfriend.
If he said no, than that would be that.
He said yes.
So did Joyce.
c was happy for me. As she knew how I felt for Joyce.

On hindsight, perhaps I wasn't clear enough to Robin about what I was asking.
I thought I was though.
Second, Joyce and I took things to fast for Robin to be comfortable with.
So we're taking things slow at the moment.

I hope things will work out fine. For everyone.

I have already read a whole bunch of threads and got to know you all for a small bit.
It's nice to meet you all.

Jay.
 
Wow...
Nice to see that you did indeed join the board.
But, did I just read that your marriage ended on Saturday??????
 
i'm sorry that your marriage ended. but it sounds as if you are still friends, plus you have children, no? best of luck!!!
 
Yeah..you did :(
Was c's decision.

Joyce already said it in her introduction.
 
Hey, do I know you? ;)

Welcome.

It is a confrontation to actually read that your marriage ended. I already knew that of course, but it still sounds so unreal.

I hope you do find some support and understanding here for your situation.

Good luck.

Joyce
 
I'm sorry Jay,
I missed that post.

Sometimes all I have time to do is scan through real quick between demands from my little guys. :)


At any rate, hugs to all and welcome to the forum.
 
And so,

You're in this complicated life changing moment.

How are you handling it?

Would love to hear more about you.

:)
