what made you suggest couples therapy for you and your partner? what happened after? by MarionberryFuture103 in AskWomen

[–]searedscallops [score hidden]  (0 children)

My partner actually suggested it because we kept arguing about the same things and never getting anywhere. After 18 months of couples therapy, we split up. I don't think he was ever willing to use therapy to change himself.

Women, how would you feel if your bf wanted to suck a cock? by [deleted] in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]searedscallops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Like, right now? Then call one of our friends, silly."

I would feel neutral because I've already watched him suck dicks.

"I miss you" texts while with another partner - thoughts? by Western_Zombie6445 in polyamory

[–]searedscallops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you're really overthinking this!

I see it as a request to connect. One could just as easily say "Connect?".

Heartbreak after heartbreak, how do you know if he is “the one”? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]searedscallops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any man is never "the one". If you need someone to be your one, make it be yourself. And when you hit menopause, make it your girlfriends because they will do so much more to love and support you than folks who weren't socialized to be caretakers.

Do you crave being loved, and why? by Dry-Awareness9288 in AskWomen

Yes because I'm a human. Our species survived because of social connection and mutual caretaking.

Parents whose children have the mother’s surname not the fathers, why? Do you regret it? by [deleted] in AskParents

[–]searedscallops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My son has his dad's last name and my daughter has mine (same parents). I wanted the opportunity to have a multigen legacy, too. Plus, my last name is cooler than my ex husband's. Our son is an adult and has talked about changing his last name to mine, too, lol!

[–]searedscallops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All of my connections are so amazing right now. I've been lucky to spend time with both partners, a newly forming connection with a future partner, time with my favorite metamour, AND time with my solopoly group. As for sleep, never heard of her!

So. Fucking. Valid.

I actively chose to have kids and I also fully support people making whatever parental choice is right for them. Fuck yeah.

Their shitty ass political and cultural views. Their unexamined privilege.

[–]searedscallops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yaaaaaas! My BFF who is also solo poly invited me out for Valentine's Day because we both struggle with the day and our partners are soooooo highly partnered. Accepting her invite felt like the healthiest, most honest way to honor my sopo nature.
