Arthur: Ford, do Betelgeucians get married? Do they.. erm.

Ford: Mate for life? Arthur, what a wild question! Of course not! Betelgeucians mate for fun.

Non-monogamous, but not polyamorous?

Maybe it’s time to let go.

A wonderful article from Sarah expressing how your polyamory journey doesn't have to end where you thought it would and how it will give you the knowledge and emotional awareness to recognise what works best for you and your partner.

Downfall...

Being “monogamish” (i.e., when a couple is emotionally intimate only with each other yet engages in sexual infidelities or group sexual activity) has long been considered acceptable, even normative, within homosexual communities. As our nation embraces the acceptance of same-sex marriage, the idea that fidelity isn’t required within marriage has also been increasingly accepted. ~ Joe Carter

After a very dramatic few weeks with the most recent girlfriend Raven, @owner-of-nea and I have closed our marriage for the first time in 2.5 years. We’ve had many talks, and we have agreed that if and when he is ready to date again, we will both open up to create a more balanced dynamic. But for now he’s deleted all the dating apps.

In the meantime, we’ve been focusing on us, we’ve had some play nights, he’s spoiled me with orgasms and I think I’m turning into an orgasm whore and losing my desire for denial!

I still have some cucky desires, but the reality just never quite hit the mark. I’m generally very laid back, and the drama and arguments they had with him, was exhausting and sucked the fun right out of the dynamic. So since his ladies didn’t want to have all that fun and exciting stuff with him, I’ll sure as hell take it instead!
