I am about to be absorbed the world of Polyamory: Married and Dating.
I shall attempt to give a less-than-biased opinion of it.

I’m goin’ to the Poly Potluck today with my wife and most likely my best friend. I’m really quite excited - haven’t been there in 2 months now.

So, I do have to admit - of all the breakups that I’ve had, I have to say this most recent one was far more irritating than anything. I’m a non-confrontational kind of person, I really don’t like confrontation if I can help it. I prefer to talk it out and what not (just ignore the feels running down my face on occasion, they just escape, I swear).
Now! The reason it was...

I’m sick of hearing in songs how one person can make you whole or complete you. How once they come along everything will be dandy. I think we as a society need to stop relying upon others to make us whole and instead try to change ourselves. There isn’t one perfect person who will make all your troubles and insecurities away and if you keep thinking that your relationships won’t...

So if any of you lovely folks are looking for an apartment up here in Western Washington my wife-to-be and I are looking for roomies. We’re located between Seattle and Tacoma in Federal Way so we’re pretty close to a lot of places. Here’s the info:
430$ for rent and that includes utilities as well as wireless internet. It’s a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom on the second-floor. 1150...

So I went to the Poly Potluck last Sunday for the first time without my wife and instead went with a friend of mine. He’s interested in polyamory and other things such as BDSM but is unsure about how to venture into it (figured the best way was with his fellow brony-in-crime-who-is-already-into-alt.-lifestyles).
Anyways, it was… different to say the least, I chilled in one of the...

Polyamory: Married and Dating -
So, I’ve yet to see this show mainly because we just canceled cable (saving money like a boss). This means I have to take a trip into the Wild (oh how I love you Internet) in order to find it.
But before I do that, I do have a question.
Has anybody seen it and if so how is it? Is it something worth hunting down? Is it a decent show, or is it one of those...

My wife and I recently adopted two male kittens (appropriately named Darken and Richard) and we’re going to be moving into a three-bedroom apartment at the end of this month (technically the beginning of next - the 8th to be exact).
Our girlfriend is going to be moving across the United States to live with us at the end of August and I’m graduating in early September (the latter...

Tips for Relationship Success
1. Always be truthful and honest with your partner.
2. Be completely reliable and dependable. Always keep your promises.
3. Don’t just bury things that are upsetting you. Communicate them with your partner.
4. Deal with problems when they first arise. If you just ignore them they are likely to get worse.
5. When working on problems always go after a win-win solution. If one...

toomanyfeelings:
“Nothing below the belt”, formally a phrase with crystal clear meaning to my younger self, has become vaguest boundary of all time, because it presumes that sex is a linear downward progression of groping. Can I tie him to the bed as long as I keep his pants on? Can I SEE her naked? What?
Most people use “experience” to mean either number of partners or “positions” tried. I...

Quick Note - I will be tagging anything that concerns sexual “things” [including but not limited to: positions, general intercourse, my personal life should sexyteims be mentioned, and any other references to things revolving around and/or related to sex] with “warning: sex related issues.”

Betsy is a 54-year-old school teacher whose two grown daughters were scandalized by their mother’s polyamorous lifestyle. They said they were embarrassed to bring their grandchildren to her home because she lived openly with her two partners, a man and a woman. She explained to them in a letter:

So, a few days ago I had lunch with my parents - mind you this was only a few days after I had told them I was engaged (my wife and I are married in everything but the ceremony and a piece of paper… oh and that pesky… law thing).
Somehow the topic of polyamory got brought up and I’m very, very certain that they’re not ready for that particular fact of my life. It’s...

We’re in the process of adopting two twin kittens, which we’ve named Richard (for his constant need to leap) and Darken (for his constant plotting then attacking). Hopefully they get along well with Jersey (our girlfriend’s evil, fluffy bunny).
Though I’m kind of rooting for a poly animal family…
Just sayin’…
It would be interesting.

[on your post] Sexuality is very complicated (imo) for example: I identify as a lesbian but I have been known to be sexually attracted to men (I blame hormones but it’s probably more complicated then that) however, I identify as a lesbian because men don’t interest me in a romantic/emotional relationship (excluding friendship)
Sexuality is incredibly complicated...

From what I’ve gathered from the conferences I’ve gone to and the friends I’ve talked to it’s because of fear of being left for another person simply because of gender.

What does “find a unicorn” mean?
A unicorn is a mythical being that radiates rainbows and shits glitter. They run around in packs and to capture one is incredibly difficult but also an honor that involves a title. It requires talent, awesome-smex-appeal and a superhero costume of your choosing.
I jest… I jest. But no, really - I can’t talk...

I don’t get how you can be asexual and in a polyamorous relationship. It just doesn’t seem like it works.
It works because there’s different types and levels of attractions. The attraction I feel for my girlfriend is romantic (and sensual), the attraction I feel towards my wife… well there’s a lot of different types - but I’ll go into that...

Dealing with the Green-Eyed Monster; or, U JELLY?
youngfabandpoly:
Jealousy isn’t exclusive to any group; no one has a monopoly on it, and most people don’t just magically stop feeling it once they decide to be poly. On the whole, though, it seems as though polyamorous relationships tend to deal with it rather differently than the majority of monogamous relationships, if only because when you’re poly, it’s a lot harder to fall into the customs...
