Everybody Lies (Podcast) (Syndicated)

by Caught in the Cogs | Feb 03 2012

Episode 31: Everybody Lies (Podcast). Everybody lies…or do they? Unfortunately, too many people lie or deceive out of fear or laziness. Sometimes just because they have no integrity. If you’re a good, honest person, approach new relationships with a healthy dose of skepticism, but don’t let them turn you into a liar. Keep honest and let them build trust. Words + Supporting Action + Reliability Over Time = Trust. Everybody Lies (Podcast) Original Blog Post Filed under:...

Love Times Three – Polyamory Lessons from Polygamy (Syndicated)

by Life on the Swingset | Feb 03 2012

I am fascinated by stories about polygamy, both fiction and non-fiction. I've watched every episode of the HBO television series "Big Love." I've read the Brady Udall novel "The Lonely Polygamist." I've read Irene Spencer's harrowing account of her life as a polygamist's wife in the 50's, 60's, and 70's, "Shattered Dreams: My Life as a Polygamist's Wife." I have several other fiction and non-fiction pieces to read or watch in my queue that I haven't gotten to yet.

One Year Mark (Syndicated)

by Loving More Then One | Feb 02 2012

Well, today marks one year since the breakup. It took me a remarkably long time to get any kind of closure on that. And I still find I think of Chane (and Arwen too at times) more than may be normal. I don’t know. I’m never sure what normal really is any longer. Dirk thinks of them and does miss some of our fun times but he really misses Chane. He doesn’t have many friends like he was with him. Chane’s birthday was particularly rough for me and I’m not sure why....

Facing Fears (Syndicated)

by Caught in the Cogs | Feb 01 2012

As I write this post, my OSO (Other Significant Other/Secondary) is with his OSO and my husband is out of town. So many people write to me and say they could never have a polyamorous relationship because they are too jealous, as if jealousy just magically disappears within poly relationships. It doesn’t. Some people deal with jealousy better than others, and, true, a few people just don’t feel jealous at all. I’m not one of those. As a triple Scorpio with emotional regulation...

The core of one’s being… (Syndicated)

by Poly for You | Feb 01 2012

Is polyamory like sexual orientation, a deep trait felt to be at the core of one’s being? Would a polyamorous person feel as incomplete without multiple partners as a lesbian or gay person might feel without one? Source: http://www.salon.com/2012/01/26/the_polyamory_trap/singleton/ There is no real simple answer to this question, but I think it’s a damn good question. All I can say is it doesn’t matter how many people you love or what the sex is of the person you love, it’s...
