This video came up in my YouTube feed. This married lesbian couple has added a third partner. She is also in a straight marriage with a guy.

On paper, I support them. But when I watched the video, I was surprised that it brought up some yucky feelings. I am probably just jealous to see three impossibly-good-looking girls together. Hard to say for sure though, emotions kinda suck sometimes.

What are your thoughts?

Not my style. But I have some poly friends and they seem happy.
Reminds me of one of them going “Monogamy in this economy? You need six people to buy a house!”
@Straylight I would possible consider you and Noelle, with Jessica and I… for a night of fun, if she would. But I know there’s no way. She’s even more monogamous than I am. Which is good for me, actually. 😊
@Straylight Maybe we get bold one day, huh? 😏

@Straylight Right? I have polyam friends too. (The community is slowly changing over to polyam instead of poly because the Polynesian community was not too pleased that their abbreviation was being coopted lol.) They generally seem happy with it.

You need six people to buy a house!

I mean, they're not wrong. 😂

@JustGoneNow Holy flirtations Batman! 😆

@Straylight @JustGoneNow So just curious, do you two know each other in real life?
@ShadowSister Stray and I have serious history… years worth of history on here. I’m not normally like that and her wife and her are probably the only couple on the planet I’d even consider it with. Just don’t think my girl would… and honestly that’s probably for the best anyways. The thought does intrigue me, though. Not gonna lie. And Stray’s already told me that I’m on her bucket list, so… *giggles*

@JustGoneNow That's an intense connection. Have you ever actually met irl? (Is that alright to ask? If not, I don't expect an answer.)
@ShadowSister no. just pics. you know how guarded, I am. lol
@ShadowSister we have connected off site too, but still online.

@JustGoneNow
you know how guarded, I am. lol

Yeah, I kinda noticed. 😜

In the old days, I used to be all like, "Hey, let's meet up. It would be really cool to meet you in person." Then I realized that this site works because you know you will never meet these people. As soon as you meet someone in real life, the magic of anonymity dies.

@JustGoneNow I'M NOT SUGGESTING WE MEET UP... but... if you ever decide you want a gettogether with ShadowSister, all you have to do is say the word. I would immediately start planning the road trip. 😂 I'm impulsive like that.
@ShadowSister that’s cute. I’m probably not meeting up with anybody but I’ll keep it in mind.
ShadowSister · 51-55, F
@JustGoneNow No worries, I'm not holding my breath. 😉
@ShadowSister I’m a mess. before all this mental illness bullshit but back then I wouldn’t have been online either. You’d have to have met me at a club I was performing at. lol
ShadowSister · 51-55, F
@JustGoneNow Yeah. If you did propose a meetup, I would probably counsel you not to do it even though it's me. I wouldn't want to be the cause of spiking your social anxiety.

This whole discussion says more about who I am than it does about what I think would actually be best. I'm just that weird sort of person who is always like, "Hell yeah I want to meet!" When I get drunk, I never want to leave the party. I want to hang out and talk until the sun comes up.

On the other hand, I never would have met you at the club. I would have been way too intimidated to talk to you since you are a real live rock star. Doesn't matter that I play guitar too. You were just on stage doing the thing, so by default I am now in awe. 😅
@ShadowSister I was so fucking wild. You would have loved. I’m barely a shadow of that girl, now. 🖤
ShadowSister · 51-55, F
@JustGoneNow Sounds like you were a lot of fun. Life changes us. My mom has a tumor. Stuff happens. I'm glad you're here now and that I've had a chance to get to know you, even if the last parts of your journey have been especially hard. ❤️
@ShadowSister I understand. I’ve quit hating the journey too. It’s been a real hell but it led me to my love. So maybe God does have a plan. Who am I to know? I just keep putting one foot in front of the other.

@JustGoneNow "Get up, pack your things."
"Where are we going?"
"Somewhere we belong."

I forgot how moving the video version of this song is. I got teary-eyed again.
@ShadowSister somewhere we belong.
@ShadowSister
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I… I didn't know I was lost
ShadowSister · 51-55, F
@JustGoneNow I remember when I didn't know I was lost. 😢 It's been quite a journey.
@ShadowSister I’m getting dark tonight. I’m going places I shouldn’t.
