ORIGINAL: TieMeInKnottss One TINY, TINY rant... I am sure there are many men who can sustain two relationships...offer equal support, emotional balance, never play favorites..but HONESTLY???? Most men, vanilla or kinky, seem to have a hard enough time translating and understanding ONE woman enough to have ONE successful relationship...let alone the time management skills for juggling a full-time career, kids, and "quality time" for 2 or more women!!! And I don't want to just bash men..my typical experience with women is that most expect to be #1 with the man they are involved with and, just basic terms of survival, dictate that you must fend off any threats.. When resources are plentiful and there are no threats it is very easy to "share" but, if for some reason, a choice has to be made we expect that WE will be the one our man will stand with.. I have seen many stories here about poly couples who either make it very clear from the beginning that wife/GF 1 was here first and don't try to emotionally separate them as a couple or that the 2nd woman comes in and starts insinuating her way into the man's good graces then forces a choice to be made or that, just by temperament, 2 members of the tricycle desire to be a bicycle because they are just more compatiable Although..maybe it is just the emotions involved...I would have GLADLY shared my ex-husband with another woman.. Heck, I may have been able to tolerate remaining married to him... A lot of the men you are talking about are not poly per se, they don't want emotional involvements with the other women, they just want to have multiple sex partners IMO/IME, it is not emotional at all. Basically, the D/M wants to have his sub (you) that I presume would be the emotional relationship, and simply wants a bunch of women on the side to fuck around with. I am sure, TMK, you will find a dom who wants only to be with you, and if you can't then there are a lot of stupid men out there. Like I said, I respect poly people, they often have their shit in order in ways I haven't gotten anywhere near, but quite honestly looking at your picture (besides putting it in my little black book of women I am totally green with envy at, and striking it out 4 times, not 3,you eyes alone do it!) if a man can't find it in someone who seems both to be beautiful and nice and submissive and is not willing to give that up simply to fuck around,there are many words for them, and jerk is the nicest one IMO:). Keep looking, you will find someone who is on the same page as yourself. One piece of advice, don't put too much stock in the online world, you may get lucky and find someone cool, but having read profiles on here and other online sites, I see a lot of young, immature boys (I won't call them men) who are still in the tomcat phase of life, and they are the ones who will tell you things like a Master has to spread his seed around and such (all you have to do is read a lot of the erotic fiction written by dom wannabes on literotica and SOL to see what I mean, it is written by jerks like this a fair amount of the time), based on past experience you will be better served trying IRL, through groups and such, better odds of finding someone who isn't a perpetual adolescent. I ran into that type in a different context when I was attempting transition, and they were the same ones who got their nose bent out of joint when trans girls wouldn't give them the time of day when they treated them/us as objects, and got pissed off like we were turning down manna from heaven or something, when they were the equivalent of 1 white castle slider, not enough to fulfill anything and too toxic to risk get poisoned given the payout;).
