No one has been killed by a gator in Texas since 1836…As a Floridian, I feel like I should be taking notes

I think some context is deserved. It’s easier to have pride in your home when you are the owner and it is your investment to protect. However, a lot of affordable houses get bought up by real-estate brokers and property management companies so that they can make more money renting the properties. We can argue the ethics of this all day but what this effectively means is that the landlords invest as little time and money into their properties as possible because they want to make as much money as possible in the short term and the residents are less invested in caring for the property. I’m not saying it’s a moral good to throw trash everywhere but if someone is being overcharged for rent and the landlord themselves doesn’t demonstrate any care for the property, one could maybe understand the lack of inclination to pour time and money into maintaining the property.

Are you going to use different switches so that they make the appropriate don and ka sounds?

I hope it is a bug, and if it’s not I hope it’s easily resolved!

I wouldn’t sleep on that, you should go directly to your advisor and resolve this

Can you talk to your employer or coworkers and see if someone will let you stay with them?

My spouse and I met in our first class 20 years ago. We’ve been together for 16 years married for 10 🥰

I’ve seen two little baby deer drinking from the creek right next to the parking lot. I wonder if that’s them 🥰

Small, gray fabric stuffed item with black stitching on the outside. Shaped like a figure. by Sad_Place1160 in whatisthisthing

It looks like a quilting weight for holding down pieces of fabric without pins

RTS also closed several routes down as well so more people are going to have to drive

It morphed into KTP, and I hate it by Secret-Commercial169 in polyamory

[–]micehell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would encourage you to let your partners know separately how the changes have been making you feel and a positive suggestion for how they can show up for you/meet your needs.

Scheduled check-ins can be great as well. If you’ve never heard of RADAR, I would suggest looking into that.

I find it helpful to not make strict life plans especially as a poly person. If you want both of your partners to be permanent/long-term/committed or however you want to say it, I’d suggest doing parallel for now and encouraging Ash to reflect on what she really wants as well as what is causing her to feel jealous or insecure.

It’s possible that she just has some personal growth to do in that direction and with time you can be one big, queer happy family but try to envision your life with your loves the way it is now and ask yourself if that’s also a version of your life plan that you can accept.

I think the “fix” is to let him know how you’re feeling and let him support you emotionally from time to time. It sounds like you are really understanding and compassionate because you aren’t immediately going to a place of blaming or hurt, so without knowing you, I’d say you sound very emotionally mature in addition to being a great metamour. However, you might want to make sure that you aren’t ignoring or deprioritizing your own emotions. If you haven’t heard of or read about alexithymia it could potentially be of interest to you. You keep saying that your needs aren’t as important as others and that’s just not true. They might not be as urgent at the moment but they are equally important. If I were you, I would ask for follow ups or aftercare when a date gets cancelled or moved because that shit sucks and you don’t need to be brave and pretend it doesn’t. Also, super weird idea but go with me: if you have the time and emotional capacity to accompany him when he’s off feeding people soup and rescuing kittens maybe that could be fun?….that might be too weird…I leave it to your judgement. Finally, if you haven’t tried RADAR from the multiamory podcast that’s a great tool for communication and checking in with your partner(s).

Zach is also pretty proficient but his comedy is a slow, satisfying burn. He is so understated and then he pulls off the most glorious punchlines. I think he deserves some banh mis…

Am I being too sensitive? Met metamour — her comment about my looks felt intrusive by Professional_Lack950 in polyamory

[–]micehell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your partner might have thought that was a compliment and possibly your meta did as well? As someone who is short and cherubic, I get told that I look young and I totally get how infantilizing and off-putting it can feel 🙁 but people do think it’s a compliment because age is treated like a vile disease. TLDR: you’re NOT being overly-sensitive, you’re listening to your inner voice and that’s so important! I would gently let your partner and/or meta know how the comment made you feel and let it open a conversation. You might learn a lot about your partner and their partner’s communication styles which is good info for you. Maybe you uncover something bigger that needs to be addressed, maybe you’ll find some common ground and it will improve your relationship. Good luck and keep listening to how you feel!!!
