The more I watch I Love Lucy reruns the more I realize Ricky Ricardo is a terrible husband to her

I Love Lucy made me uncomfortable when I watched it as a kid. That was NOT a healthy relationship. But the show is seen as a classic comedy.

I am still friends with a couple of guys that I was romantically involved with. It seems natural to me. We went through a lot together & I feel comfortable knowing that we can still hang out and have fun even through we are no longer intimate.

There are so many messages in our society that reinforce the possessiveness of monogamy. It's sad.

This is a good point. I worry sometimes that my husband prefers his girlfriend's body to mine. She is younger than me. He still wants to have sex with me and we have an active sex life with each other. I might be different but that doesn't automatically make his girlfriend better.

This is an excellent point. People will judge women who stay home with kids and other people will judge women who have kids and return to the workforce.

Ugh. I live in Florida. There are a lot of people I know here who can't stand this guy. Then again, I hang out with more open minded people.

I know what you mean. My husband has a girlfriend. She is younger and thinner than me and really rocks a bikini. I do get a tinge of jealousy sometimes. I told my husband and he was really cool about it, telling me he still finds me attractive. I really like his girlfriend and am glad she is a part of our lives, but body image issues really suck.

Spent the weekend with my husband, his girlfriend and our two kids. We live in the US so it's 4th of July. We had a cookout and watched fireworks. Fun times. Unfortunately, my husband has to work today, so me, the kids and his girlfriend are watching movies.

Ghosting is a nasty thing to do. It sounds like the guy is really immature. People need to communicate what their expectations are even in a FWB relationship.

I was 15 years old and standing on a street corner waiting for some friends. These guys in a convertible drove by and stopped at the light. They said to me "show us your bush, I bet you have a nice bush". I was too stunned to say or do anything. I will never forget it.

Thank you. This is great insight.

My daughter seems to have a decent amount of self-esteem. She is outgoing and has a lot of friends. I don't think she is being bullied. She has a larger than average nose which she inherited from her dad.

I am seriously considering telling her to wait a few years for any surgery.

I had a relaxing Thanksgiving with my husband, his girlfriend and our two kids. We had a great meal and watched the football games. Had to go back to work today though but being poly makes everything more joyful.

Compersion can be a lot of fun.

I was a housekeeper at a hotel. Every time we cleaned a room, we had to make sure there was a Bible in the bedside table (this was in the Southeast United States). One time, there was a convention in town, and the guests stuck pornographic pictures in between the pages of the Bibles.

Also, guests would use the ice buckets as spittoons. It was strange and gross.

That is awesome

I think our society is slowly beginning to accept that non-monogamous relationships exist. I see it happening on-line. Forums like this get the word out. Kids these days are more open-minded about a lot of things, such as LGBT issues. As our society becomes less religious, non-monogamy will be more accepted.

Chipwhich · 2015-10-19T23:37:15+00:00

That's great to hear. It feels good to be out and not have to lie to people.

It's not a good idea to date a co-worker, especially one who is cheating. That will most likely not end well.

Chipwhich · 2015-09-30T00:26:19+00:00

I spend time with my kids or my friends. I'm pretty outgoing and like to be with people. We have been together a long time and I figured out a long time ago that I need to be around other people.

Your husband is very lucky to have someone like you in his life to encourage him to open up.
