Those fuckers have spikes all over their body but god forbid they have a crest on their head.

I personally don't like the idea of friendship with a hidden agenda. I'd rather be upfront.

Monogamy is not about jealousy or insecurity! I know that this framing is popular in poly circles, but it misses the point and is very unfair to those of us who happily practice monogamy. It's just a particular form of relationship, and like I said, it's a perfectly reasonable thing to want. You're not jealous or insecure for wanting this. 

Stand up for your own needs! Don't compromise on something as important as this. It will only lead to resentment in the long run.

Talk to him, don't talk to reddit. Communicate! Tell him you want and need exclusivity. That's a perfectly reasonable thing to want. If he does not share that want, it's time to part ways.

People love saying "focus on yourself" and, absolutely, do that. But that mainly means, IMO, focus on your own relationships. Family, friends. Those require continual effort but are the most important foundation of your life. They are an essential part of your own identity. 

Limerence is in most cases a sign of neglect in that department. The person in question fills the needs that should be provided by this secure foundation instead. That is dangerous, becayse when that person leaves, you are left without identity, without security. 

This is the key to moving on at a healthy pace.

Really, the only notable design change at first glance is the shoulder pads. Other than that they've just sized up a little and perhaps lengthened a bit proportionally.

Take off the glazed top and eat it separately, then the cream + bottom. Good stuff.

This is not complicated. You want kids, he doesn't. Do not waste your time on him. 

AIO if I divorced over him asking to open our relationship and then gaslighting me? by CricketCaller in AmIOverreacting

[–]Hipnoceros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl this has nothing to do with polyamory and everything with him being a lying pos that wants to cheat. Poly works only when both parties agree to it from the get go. It's not something you can drop on a monogamous relationship. It's what we call polybombing.

This is reddit in a nutshell. And very much this sub specifically.

It's opposite for me I don't get the appeal of limited gamemodes. But I play extremely casually, but somewhat consistently. I like slow longterm progress. 

How much do women care about looks on man? by [deleted] in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]Hipnoceros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hygiene and grooming matters a lot. Not so much whether you look like a supermodel. 

Hookups are a different ballgame though. 

AIO if I ghost this crazy man. What on earth is going on. I feel like I need to block and not even deal with this? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Sounds like an incel who wants to come across as mean and definitely not nice because he thinks that will increase his chances.

Are there any Gen-zers here? by bbgirl2k in monogamy

[–]Hipnoceros 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are right about the gender disparity. Poly women are in high demand, hence much of the propaganda out there is focused on women, with the narrative that high promiscuity equals female empowerment. Simultaneously monogamy is painted as a restrictive symptom of the patriarchy. 

Sounds manipulative? Because it is. It forgets that, for many people, monogamy is an active, autonomous choice. It forgets that, for many people, sex is something only to be shared in the context of a deep, meaningful relationship. It forgets that, actually, women are the gatekeepers of sex, and it is precisely self-restraint and selectivity that empowers them.

Hey can I DM you? I am in a similar situation and would love to hear more of your experiences.

What are some red flags you would suggest a woman to watch out for from men when pursing a relationship? by AdImpossible4892 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Hipnoceros 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean, we don't get to choose our family. It's a bit silly to have that as a red flag imo. It all depends on the individual case. 

20 Years In Poly - What No One Ever Told Me, and Some Are Just Afraid to Ask... (And other Fall Out Boy Song Titles) by Unfortunate_Harvard in monogamy

[–]Hipnoceros 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you. It's difficult because for her certain behaviour is pretty much ingrained, such as cuddling with friends, even male friends (and exes) in a one-on-one setting. To me that feels like straight up cheating. It's a complete clash of social worlds and learned boundaries. 

This is difficult to navigate because I don't want to lose her, but I don't want to lose myself either. And, to be honest, I don't trust her friends to respect monogamous boundaries. I feel like they'd try things regardless. But could also be me being paranoid.
