I dunno, I'd be fine with my SO porking someone else once in a while. I'd rather it was a group activity, though.

What, Homo II, how do teens who are too ugly to find sexual partners suddenly become attractive enough in their 20s to find lots of them?
― Everything else is secondary, Thursday, 8 December 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link
Remember how all the kids in marching band used to pork each other? Same thing.
hahahaha

Because the ugly people find each other, via polyamorous mixers, Fetlife, etc., and all fuck each other

what's Fetlife?

Fetlife is a fetish/kink-centric social networking website.
― Homosexual II, Thursday, 8 December 2011 20:52 (twelve years ago) link
does it have a brony contingent?
― sarahel, Thursday, 8 December 2011 20:55 (twelve years ago) link
I've never heard of Fetlife, I'm not kinky, I don't consider myself polyamorous, I've never played in a marching band (they don't have guitars or keyboards), and I'd like to think I'm not ugly (i've posted my pic here before).

Lee597 or whatever number it was. Same display name as I'm using now.

BTW I'm dying to know how her pregnancy is working out. Z, come on in, the sand is fine!

Ohhhhh. You didn't see that update before ILX went down?
― ᶘ ᵒᴥᵒᶅ (~curious orange~), Thursday, 8 December 2011 21:08 (twelve years ago) link
I am sure there are some fans of Brony on Fetlife. There's a pretty wide range of people on there. It varies from the sorta kinky S&M-centric to some really dark shit that I try to stay away from.
― Homosexual II, Thursday, 8 December 2011 21:09 (twelve years ago) link
Thanks to ILX, i'm learning to speak British and Canadian!
No - what did I miss? I'm afraid bad news from the way you put it.
― Everything else is secondary, Thursday, 8 December 2011 21:10 (twelve years ago) link
Yes, sad news, but that was some weeks ago now and I'm sure zora has dealt/is dealing w it. Wish her all wonderful things in the meantime.
― OH GNUS (Pyth), Thursday, 8 December 2011 21:16 (twelve years ago) link
I didn't log on that weekend, not knowing ILX was going to be down when I returned.
That's just awful - so close.
Just when I thought the US couldn't be any more f%cked up that it is, I learn about UK adoption and artificial-insemination laws; at least infertile women (or those with infertile male partners) can usually try to get pregnant for free in America without massive expenses and repercussions for the donor.
The friend I mentioned in that thread still isn't pregnant after 5 months of trying either. At least it's not costing her much, at least monetarily. It's ravishing her relationship though.

Also most people into polyamory are kinda ugly.

This made me lol. Its OTM, for the most part, as well. OKC is full of em.

My ex/bff/housemate N dated a poly woman for a while. He said she constantly "discussed" things, like a state of play, and all the poly people would have meetings, it sounded more like some weird group therapy thing than anything remotely FUN.

I do know some reasonably good-looking people who are into poly! however they are also kind of crazy.
― c sharp major, Thursday, 8 December 2011 22:49 (twelve years ago) link
i was gonna say, beyond the ugliness, poly relationships always seem to be more obsessively contractual even than monogamous ones - for probably obvious reasons

― HOOS aka driver of steen, Thursday, 8 December 2011 22:50 (twelve years ago) link
they're like the poly AGMs, all the breakout groups and committees come back to report on their progress

Hahaha yessss.

I had some geeky drama friends who did the Ren Faire thing a couple of times in HS. The amount of chlamydia they brought back always troubled me. I would have though syphilis was more historically accurate.

Took my ex out for his birthday last night. His hands started wandering tentatively to my back and knee and his legs kept slipping towards mine. A few months ago I would not have been able to resist that, but last night I didn't have any problem cheerily parting ways with him at the end of the night. Either time is a wonderful healer, or I was just too exhausted to do anything than go back to my own bed. Probably both.

Guys, I'm here. I did post about the miscarriage upthread. To update viz. seeing g-b I did see him and verily the drought was ended, but I'm keeping a return to the fertility clinic in the New Year on the cards, so no official relationship atm.
ljubljana, gosh. Well done!
― Zora DB, Sunday, 11 December 2011 20:51 (twelve years ago) link
Yay for the drought being over! :) Hope it's uncomplicated etc.
― lebateauivre, Sunday, 11 December 2011 21:06 (twelve years ago) link
Zora, I have had many deep thoughts today about whether I should have just gone ahead and ended my own drought last night. I dunno though, I think it would have taken me right back to Square 1 and in our case I don't see any prospect of a renewed relationship (unless his feelings for me totally changed). But that's not the case for all drought-endings with exes, not by a long shot *fondly recalls a number of incidents*

I, over the course of this weekend, did not have ljub's presence of mind with my own ex.

My long distance crush has proposed a visit to my place while she takes a long holiday break!Trying to make this work. It all seems pretty good right now but I feel like the rest of the winter after her visit is gonna be difficult.
― Mr. Farmer, Monday, 12 December 2011 16:38 (twelve years ago) link
How did this work out?
I feel ya. I'm in a similar sitch with someone 450 miles away. I think long distance relationships can work when there's a set time that you have to be apart - one year in your case - after which you can be together. But my long-distance crush (much more than a crush actually) won't be able to move anytime in the forseeable future. We're contemplating whether I should uproot myself so we can be together. It's scary; if it doesn't work out I'll be left in an unfamiliar place with nothing.

Met a few friends at the bar who were there for a mini-reunion of their fellow drama nerds. Erin told me I should hit on one who'd gone to school with me (Meagan), but I thought she was doing her usual encourage-me-to-hit-on-everyone thing, so I hung out for a bit and then encouraged my friends to relocate to a less-depressing (non-karaoke) spot. And as I'm paying out my tab, Meagan taps me on the shoulder and we start talking and flirting for quite a while - all the while my friends are out of her line of sight giving me shit, and then decide to remind me that we'd all agreed to leave. I didn't even think to get her number, I was so distracted by them making asses of themselves, but we're Facebook friends now at least.
At the other bar I was the object of much scorn for cockblocking myself by not immediately talking to her when told to.

EEIS - Still waiting on her visit, can't come soon enough.There's no certainty that we'll be able to be together after a year, either. It's all very much up in the air. I just know that she's exactly what I am looking for. Rather, the feeling I have when I am with her is what I am looking for. She had a bad year (finance-wise) where she is right now. That seems like a good sign that we may be able to somehow relocate someplace together once the opportunity arises. No way to know for sure.
― Mr. Farmer, Wednesday, 28 December 2011 21:20 (twelve years ago) link
This sort of thing comes in waves, huh? After seeming tentative about it before, my long-distance work crush has apparently made some time for me to visit in a couple of months. Trouble is even if anything comes of it, she has no idea where she'll land, work-wise, and neither do I. :(
