Fire soothed her nerves, especially in moments such as these. Dancing gold, red, yellow, blue. She touched the flame with her fingertip, briefly. She’d never been comfortable with material things, but fire transcended the physical world. Something about it felt almost spiritual. She thought back to the other night, The flames traced a pattern on …
In the movies, the “best” loves aren’t the first ones. Funny, isn’t it? In the movies, the main character often goes through several false attempt loves before they find their lasting connection. Sometimes they even need to experience those initial loves to appreciate their “last” love (at least so far as the movie goes.) This …
Been moving and traveling a long time. Never overly worried about what I left behind, always trusted I would find something wherever I ended up. I somehow internalized a confidence in this, when I had little confidence in any other ability. That particular self-assurance paid off. I did find my tribe when I resettled, however …
the beauty of illusion, silly, silly kitten I thought being in love with you would be marvelous. Drifting to sleep in your arms. Waking up with your kisses. I exist to love, honor, and obey. He said, Love her, so I did. He said, forget her, but I slipped. I thought of memories, sweet words …

“You won,” my friend says. And I guess I needed to hear that message. After all the shit we’ve been through, what we’re left with today is nothing more than what we started out with a decade ago. But it’s different. It doesn’t look different, but it feels different. Sometimes winning simply means getting back …

I like being independent. I love the idea of being my own person, all the time, without a care in the world. Solopoly, the idea of being polyamorous but remaining one’s own primary relationship. Without any of the burdens (though, yes, without some of the benefits) of a long term, committed, involved on every level …
Polyamory is NOT Just about having or wanting many, loving relationships -almost- ALL people want this and have this. Just because they “only” have one (or no) romantic relationships doesn’t mean they don’t have multiple, loving NON romantic relationships. Please avoid appearing like you believe you’re the only one with “too much love” to give …
