Polyamory Is Next, And I’m One Reason Why (Libertarians for Polyamory)

You’re going to bed already?” I complained, as I prepared to read our three-year-old a bedtime story across the hall. It was my not-so-veiled solicitation for sex. I was nearing ovulation and in the mood. I knew Brad was rarely in the mood at night—unlike me, he’s a morning person—but I was hoping, by chance, he might be.

“Yeah, I’m tired,” he grumbled. “I have to work in the morning.” After I got my daughter to sleep in her own bed—a rare gem—I came back in to cuddle, to see if he was really asleep or just faking.

Currently, she’s “not married” to one guy.

But, apparently she’d be happier if the government would sanction her being “not married” to several guys at the same time.

WTF???

Dear Sara, You are a childish slut.

Grow up.

Sincerly yours,

FTA:"He’d joked earlier in the evening, after one of my innuendos, that he might be in the mood if Kitty were around. Kitty (not her real name) is a friend of mine whom Brad’s been on a couple of dates with since we decided to open up our relationship about six months ago. At the moment, he’s wild about her. She’s new, different, everything I am not. ...

Brad and I are not legally married, nor do we ever plan to be, but there aren’t a lot of practical differences between us and a married couple. We’ve owned a home together, have a child together, and have every intention—although no promises—of staying together ‘til death do us part. We are hoping polyamory can help make that happen."

One practical difference is that most married couples don't continue to screw around with other people.

Her shack-up baby daddy is screwing her friend who is "new, different, everything" that she is not. Gosh, what could possibly go wrong?

[Bubba_Leroy]

What if she is ovulating but it ends up that someone other than her husband is the father of her baby???

Maybe all of her kids from various baby daddies and her various baby daddies' kids with other women can get together for a play date when they are picking up their welfare checks.

Your tax dollars at work.

Isn’t there a scripture about “leading silly women...?”

[Bubba_Leroy]

My ex-husband suggested that. Hence the “ex” designation.

My wife and I have an understanding.

I don't screw around and she doesn't give me a Bobbit cut while I am asleep. It has worked for us for 30 years now.

That gal ended up living right down the street from me.

Like I said on another thread.
Polyamory puts the power in the woman’s lap.
They usually use it to shop the field until they find who they want, then bolt.

This is not really new, it was referenced in “Moon has a Harsh Mistress”

I don't screw around and she doesn't give me a Bobbit cut while I am asleep. It has worked for us for 30 years now.

The understanding needs to work both ways. She doesn't screw around, and I don't use her in a civil engineering project (involving lots of concrete).

Never ever trust libertarians

[aquila48]

I don’t get what she’s complaining about. Is she not able to do what she wants right now?

I feel really sorry for her daughter, though. And when her daughter becomes a basket case because of the insanity she grew up with, who picks up the pieces?
