I am meeting Tempter’s wife this weekend. I am nervous and excited. In the past I have been a lousy poly person. I am good with compersion and respecting boundaries but terrible when it comes to communicating and protecting *my* needs and recognizing metamours as people (not just guardians against fun). After my last married boyfriend (who taught me lots and lots about communication, but didn’t help/couldn’t listen to what I needed) I vowed to focus on monogamy. I reasoned that I deserve a partner and poly is too hard and painful. I played with friends and their partners and told myself that was different (I should probably examine this…)?…and then I met Tempter who at every step has earned his moniker. He’s drawn me in wedding ring and all. He’s coaxing me into communicating. He’s present and focused and GGG all over the place. Plus his wife sounds like a pretty rad chick. On paper poly makes loads of sense for me. I’m a slutty little masochist who is full of emotions and love and wiggles for days. I feed off attention and holding hands and being extra. Is it fair to believe that one person could ever be my everything?I don’t know, but I’ll give it another try. Should I bring her flowers? -- source link
