My favorite is from my father. He and I are very close, and of similar temperaments. We drink beer together, watch NASCAR, all that shit. I cuss like a sailor, and I’ve gotten to that age where my dad will be completely candid with me, cussing and all.

I love my state.

I LOVE the Fancy Nancy books! I've worked in the kid's departments at various bookstores over the last few years, and they're one of my go-to recs. Awesome vocab, and she's absolutely hysterical.

Oh lord, I'm looking at this and all I can think is "NO YOU'RE TWELVE. STOP IT. STOP ITTTTT"

He is into it. Because I'm into it.

He was... confused. But this was years ago, when I mentioned it as something I MIGHT be interested in. And of course, the most recent discussion was emotional and difficult... but he's accepting and supportive, and knows he can pull the plug whenever.

I don't feel like I'm splitting myself in two. If anything, I feel more complete because of all this.

Believe me, I wonder this too.

Absolutely. My husband has limited interest in it, but my partner is free to do whatever. I would KIND of hope he at least mention to me if he's looking into other partners, but it's ok.

This. I'm poly, my husband isn't. Monogamy is enough for him, and that's fine.

No? Not in the slightest? The moral is that sometimes we can't be EVERYTHING all the time to each other, and we've accepted that, and it's ok.

Mine is entirely initiated by me. My husband has zero interest in finding other partners.

It's a tricky road :( What really helped my husband out with it was thinking of it like this- A woman is expected to have multiple children she loves equally. Why, then, is it so hard to imagine her loving multiple partners?

<3 To return the sentiment- GIRL. You hit the nail on the head.

I can't even begin to explain what all these articles about polyamory mean to me. My husband and I, after discussing it for YEARS, recently decided to open up a bit and let me start a thing with a mutual friend. We've been open and honest about everything, and it's definitely changed some things in our marriage for…

Mine ended up being about 8-9k after all was said and done. The venue was actually the CHEAPEST part... we rented out a field at the local Audubon center for a day. $400 got us the field mowed, chairs put up, and open access to the grounds for pictures. It was freaking perfect, since my husband and I hike there all…

Ellie is one of my favorite artists of today, but this just doesn't fit her voice.

My husband and I are in a similar situation. He knows my dating history and poly amorous tendencies, so something like this as been discussed over the years. Recently, I entered into an FWB type thing with a friend, with full disclosure to the hubby. Hubby says it's ok, as long as I'm safe and he has 100% power to…

Mine was so simple. It was the night before the wedding, I'd monumentally fucked up on some of the centerpieces, so the girls and I sat down and fixed ALL of them while getting drunk on daiquiris and watching Gilmore Girls.

My cat did NOT like that airhorn. Which is why I watched this video 8 times.
