Sorry, have wanted to get back to the thread to post my thoughts, etc. I work 12 hours a day on weekends though, so it is rather limiting at the moment. First, thanks to everyone for their opinions, from all sides. One of the posters pointed something out that my ex-Master said to redrose. He said we are not his girlfriend of his wife, we are his slaves. However, the situation I agreed to was one of openness. He had intended (or so he claimed) to build a house with seperate quarters for each slave and her family. Rose and I both voiced our concern about not wanting to live apart from him very early on in the poly relationship, and he reassured us. Rose met him three years ago, but they seperated because he wanted her to get divorced and she wasn't ready to do that. It was only last August (when things began with the three of us) that Rose made the choices she needed to make for herself. She is now divorced and I am so proud that she finally got the nerve to do it. They, particularly, were growing close. I did what I could do to aid that bond. He also made it clear that he expected his ex-fiance (22 years old now), to come back, and that she would be his wife and that we would serve her as well. We were fine with that plan. A few weeks ago, Rose brought up the subject, asking if things ever came to the point with the 19 year old, would she be told about all this stuff, because we don't want to live isolated, the other women, mostly by ourselves with an occasional visit from Master. He agreed, but again said, "I'm 48, she's 19, how long do you really think this is going to last?" If he told us, I would have a little respect for him. But even now rose caught him in more lies. What he doesn't know is that social networking sites allow us a little glimpse into the life of this 19 year old. He's not on those sites, probably because of all the lies he tells. Yes, we are leaving, but there are few loose ends to tie up before we make it clear that we know what is going on. Never a question. We are seeing the real him, the man who says he wants complete honesty, twist things and make everything seem to be the way the person wants it to be. We find it just a little ironic that he found Rose being married unacceptable, and yet he wants his slaves to live in one house, while he marries and lives a completely different life in the other house. I truly wonder if there are women who can be happy going weeks with not seeing and barely speaking with their Master. It is not a life I could live. I need quality time and touch with my partners. I truly start to whither without it. And it is a bit harder because I am shy and I moved away from all my family. Not to mention my job is isolating, working opposite the rest of the world. But I can't rely on just him either, and I am making positive changes in my life to make me better. BTW, as to being corrected, yes, we did not live in a poly household (that was the endgame), we were just in a poly relationship. I stand corrected. My other struggle is simply mourning the lost possibilities. And my love for this man, even if he didn't deserve it. And the change in my relationship with rose. We will be close, but our relationship has to change with the ending of all this, since we both need a man as the primary partner. I think I got lucky with lightning striking twice. Doubt I would be thrice blessed. It makes me so sad. And I'm going to miss his dogs, some of them really brought great joy into my life. Sometimes the simplest pleasures are the best. I can't have dogs myself at the moment, and it's hard to be anything but happy playing with dogs. Also, we are not out to get the girl, she is most innocent of all in this. I do feel bad for her, and if she is like most women, she is going to snoop into his life, want to look at what is on his computer, etc. He's not exactly hiding the freaky stuff he does. And maybe she'll accept and they really are meant to be together. Or she'll learn a really tough and sucky lesson of life. I think those are most of my thoughts. I am sure I am forgetting something. And I'll remember in the middle of my night. LOL.
