Julie's Introduction

Hi All, I'm Julie and I've been poly for 10 years. I've been married for 18 years (20 years together) and I've been with my boyfriend for 10 years. I was registered on this forum in my early years of being poly but I had to register again. Maybe because I was inactive for a few years, life got in the way and unfortunately time is not an infinite resource! I'm not in a closet but I'm not out either. I usually don't tell people but I don't hide it either. I told some people when I saw it fitting in the conversation, especially when someone starts talking about their own relationship issues (like cheating husband or dating a married man without knowing he was married). People are usually surprised and don't expect this from me.
 
Welcome back. Congratulations on your relationships. I am not in the open or closeted either. Currently I am sitting at a Subway with my Girlfriend and my wife is across the table. This forum is a great support for us.
 
Greetings Julie,
Welcome back to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

I looked at your other thread, and responded there briefly. To summarize, I don't think there's a problem with getting to know someone as a friend. You only need their spouse's permission if the friendship turns romantic. Anyway, it sounds like you have a decent amount of poly experience, so just use your own best judgment as you pursue the various possibilities. Glad to have you aboard!

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter" :)

There's a *lot* of good info in Golden Nuggets. Have a look!

Please contact the mods if you do (or if you see any spam), and you can block the person if you want.

If you have any questions about the board itself, please private-message a mod and they'll do their best to help.

Welcome aboard!
