RE: Why Polyamory was Right for me - Part. 2

in #relationships7 years ago

I cannot believe I nearly missed this post in my feed and one of my steemian SOs (@poet) had to send it to me!

A few things:

The biggest issue I had with having two boyfriends was that I never felt like I had enough time for both. I had more than enough feelings to offer them but when I sat down and watched a tv-show with one boyfriend, the other contacted me on facebook and wanting my attention I felt guilty.

No doubt. Even when there's balance, there's sometimes a nagging feeling of "I should be elsewhere". But then again, I get that with work and writing too, so it's not really exclusive to polyamorous relationships, just a matter of time management. Which is, IMHO, a skill one must hone to be happy in a polycule.

So, I lost my love and I lost a Doctor on the same day.

OMG that's awful! I... I am so sorry! And coincidentally, guess which episode of The Doctor I am about to watch with said @poet ? Yeah. Tennant's last.

Looking forward to more of your posts and have an awesome Christmas!

Yeah, I posted it at like 4 in the morning for me? Learned from that mistake and will wait to post things even if I get them done the day before if it is like 4 am lol.

And I agree with you fully, proper time management and scheduling is what makes it work. The partners also need to respect the time you spend with your other partner, I had one who sometimes tried to get my attention when he already knew I was busy watching a movie with a partner and that sucked a bit.

Make sure to hug poet after that episode! Since my reply is so slow I am sure that has already happened however. I hope you have a great holiday with awesome food :D

Yeah. I cried (again) and he thought it was cute that I totally lost it at "I don't want to go".
