ORIGINAL: topcat try to keep in mind that conscoisly on not, she is trying to extort your love. Stand firm, be fair, be ready for a visit from the drama llama. Crikey - extort??? I hardly see the OP as an innocent victim here, esp as we've only heard her side! Not wanting poly yet living simultaneous (and separate?) relationships surely invites drama, no? Focus. quote:

Focus, I've seen and respected your posts here but I believe topcat is right. That's ok, if topcat, you and a hundred others is "right", it still doesn't make me wrong - it's purely personal opinion, not a democratic vote. BTW, topcat did disassociate himself from "extort" in a later post, but I still disagreed with his alternative "compel" lable, too! quote:
This girl quite knowingly & willingly took a position as a 'distant second', now she wants something else. And I bet she did it in good faith, too! But I'm guessing like 99.999% of humans, she was ultimately unable to control who she developed feelings for. Her "crime" was to express them - like almost any caring friend would encourage one to do.... quote:
Just because he's lived the 'good life' - significant one at home, bit of fluff on the side - doesn't mean that the doll is playing nicely however. Even with topcat's backing, I still don't see what "doll" did wrong beyond being honest when pressed and I certainly don't see the OP as being the innocent victim portrayed in this thread. When you intimately interact with others, emotional attachments can form, desirable or not - it ain't rocket science. When teenagers are sexually active and the girl gets pregnant; it's the girl's fault, not his too? The consequence (pregnancy) may not have been desirable but it's ridiculously immature and naive not to forsee the possibility of it occurring! And the OP is no teen.... Focus. Oops, the dreaded edit....
