Talking @ actually finding a "Polyamory" relationship

Talking @ actually finding a "Polyamory" relationship


Stable, all-around, emotionally deep, companionate relationships with other(s)... seems like too many bars of expectation to place on any mere mortal. I note many here aren't here seeking more an in-out, sexual ride. A multiple, committed relationship is more like a tribal family.

Life and relationships have taught me that none of us really have it all ‘figured out,’ regardless of journeys far and wide, moments of transcendent awareness nor being ripe with intriguing tales of experience. Maybe it’s wisdom. Or more likely the experience of going through a series of life’s tempests and being carried far away from any concocted plan. I shake my head at the smug people who think they have it all figured out. I've progressed. Perhaps less prone to how it made me anxious and nervous when I pretended to be confident, like I knew what I was doing. Maybe better now at inviting the shadow puppets in for foreplay.

There is nothing more attractive than authentic confidence, and to realize that we cannot control everything. I guess I could never quite catch on quickly to other's own hidden demons. That’s something that takes time to soften up and forgive ourselves (nope, we’re not perfect and it’s okay) and forgive others for not being the projections we once aspired them to be. I do though prefer to befriend people that are just being who they are, are open with their flaws, fantasies, their heart' desires, their muddles and who slow down enough to walk by my side. Being who we are, it’s a journey, man... that's a viable relationship. But we may well have different ideas of the relationship(s) we seek.
