ORIGINAL: slavejali <quote>Her husband is hospitalized, does she come to a play party with you if it was scheduled and you really wanted to go? </quote> Thats one of the reasons I couldnt be in a multiple relationship, who takes priority? Who gets part of you and which part? And if the situation were reversed, say I was the single one and my partner had other people he was committed too...would I be happy accepting a part of him? Would I be happy knowing I was second on the priority list? Like if I really needed him but he had to go on a barbeque with his wife and kids...ugh..fuck that *grin* Its just too confusing and entirely too ....split. I'm with you! *I* could NOT NOT NOT tolerate this sort of split. I failed Sharing 101 in Kindergarten. The positive to what you have said is you recognize that fact that poly isn't for you and that is important and just as valid a feeling as it is for those of us that function in a poly relationship that blends two households. I think understanding the priorities and communicating with all parties, not to mention time sharing. Alandra and kyra are Knights first priorites, after all I do have a husband (he's not really vanilla, more like caramel with chocolate sauce) so I have a primary but that doesn't lessen what I feel for Knight or for His girls, we just work around time. Some family gatherings we are all there, there is no segregation. Hmm if Rob was in the hospital and I wanted to go to a play party, I would talk to ROb about it, gauge the seriousness of why he is in the hospital and what he felt about me going, He and Knight would make the call if I went or not and I would respect the answer. I don't know if that helps any. No one person's 'kink' is any better or worse than anyone else's as long as all parties are concenting adults and are having fun. It's about individual choices and momogomy is no less valued a choice as poly if it works for someone. It doesn't work for us, but that is our choice. denika Life is what we make it
