Hi everyone, A here.
I'm a 24 yr old mama of 2. WARNING: I am an over thinker with anxiety issues. You'd never know by looking at me or hanging out and talking to me and sometimes that makes it harder! Yay for me, right!? :p I love everyone and everything and am so glad I finally have people to talk to about the wonderful possibilities this life can have:) Annnnnnyyyywayyyyyysssss----

I am new to the Poly world and here to share my trials and learn from others. My husband and I have been together 6 years and married 2. I always felt like I was missing something, even long before hubby came along. I always wanted (or so I thought) the ONE love of my life to come along and sweep me off of my feet.

Then he did....and something, years later, was still missing. I couldn't seem to figure it out. I had a "fling" with a woman a few years back, and that's all I thought it was at the time. There were feelings both ways for sure, but I wasn't aware just how strong my feelings were until she was gone. Long story short, she's back in the picture THANK GOD. When she first came back around I figured she was just wanting to be a friend. So much had changed from the time before. She and I both got married, I had my second child, built a house with my husband, etc.

It didn't wake long to realize we both still wanted and loved each other. I knew I needed AND wanted to tell my husband about my feelings but was unaware how to do so. Thus began my "research" in Polyamory and Alternative Relationships.

WHERE WE ARE NOW: I am still married to my husband and very much in love with him. I am also dating my girl, and am very much in love with her.

MY DELIMA: We are not the type to live together, hangout together -very rare, or share in the intimacy, what-so-ever. Anything wrong with that? No. But definitely difficult. Finding time and SEPARATE time for both of them, trying to make both sides happy, making both feel equally as important and loved, etc.. I would love to get to the point of us 3 living together, even if we are still completely separate. Does that even make sense? But I am in NO way ever going to press the issue..Just would love it.

Sorry if this got too long and all over the place. It's nap time for 1 babe and the other is just....well, being a kid! :)
 
Greetings aykess,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

It sounds like your husband knows about your feelings for this other woman and is supportive, but maybe you are having some trouble deciding or expressing exactly what you want with her? I see that you have a couple of other threads started, and I will try to have a look at them soon.

Glad you could join our site.
Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter" :)
