#adventures in polyamory

[acelessthan3]

average person has "one true love" factoid actualy just statistical error. average person has 0 true loves. Polyamorous Georg, who lives in cave & falls in love over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn should not have been counted

A cute girl messaged me on a dating app and I’m SCREAMING

[watfang]

thinking about last summer and the warm afternoons i spent with the play partner who also “didn’t have much experience with men”. lol @ neither of us being “men”, them perhaps even less so than i. we met up a few times in the hot late summer days, always at their place.

they’re pretty and femme, often wearing a short beard. the first time we met for coffee first; we were both timid, but we slowly stripped one another. we’d sexted before this, sharing photos of our cocks, edging one another while at work. now, here in their bedroom, we stroked one another. hard cock in hand, i attempted to top them but their hole was just so tight that i didn’t have much luck. we lay next to one another and jerked off until we came on our bellies. they invited me to shower and we did; later, over lunch, we watched something on tv in the living room and began making out again. i rubbed their cock through their tights, eventually pulling them off (thank goodness their housemate wasn’t home!) gingerly, then more confidently, i toyed with their hole with my fingers, ever so slowly pressing one in. they loved this, i could tell, betrayed by the sounds they were making. i stroked their growing erection while i buried my finger in their ass, then eventually pushed them up against the wall and kissed them. 

the next time, we made out and listened to disco on their bed. no luck topping them this time either, even with the cock ring, but they went down on me which felt lovely. i used a plug in their ass, and one in my own. we came more or less together.

the third time, i managed to fuck them. cock ring wrapped around my shaft, their hole lubed and waiting, i slid ever so slowly into them. it was a tight fit and they squirmed beneath me; unfortunately, the angles were all off and it wasn’t long before i slipped out. they asked to top me and i bent over for them; they slid on a condom and pressed their cock into me, which i’ve never done before. the sensation was not as smooth as the plugs or toys i’ve used, but they pumped gently into me for a few minutes while i buried my head in the pillow. it became too much after some time and i asked them to stop. condoms off, bodies sweaty, we lay next to each other and chatted. we got to stroking one another’s cocks and they got very hard. i found the right angle and fully did them in, making them cum all across their belly and chest. they asked to go down on me and did, their head reaching all the way to the base of my shaft eventually. it felt amazing watching them bob up and down on my, and somewhat to my surprise, i felt myself about to cum. i let them know; they kept going and i grabbed them, spilling into their mouth. they swallowed, smiled, looked up at me wiping their lips.

we haven’t met up in this new year, but i certainly wouldn’t mind if we did

So happy together 💟~

Happy Pride Month! 💙❤🖤💫🖤❤💙 from a polyamorous person

If I may get personal;

I made this comic because I often feel like polyamory is, at best, an afterthought; at worst, openly hated and ridiculed.

I've been insecure about other identities in the past, but I've never had to get defensive about anything like with polyamory; you wouldn't even guess the kind of things people, even other queer identities, feel comfortable saying about polyamory. All I want to say is, the next time you see a post about polyamory at all, see how many people mock or dismiss it, and don't do the same? Its a lovely thing ❤ and love is made to be shared.

Finally putting some faces to my poly-adventuring-team ocs.

Short version: A lonely paladin goes looking for romantic partners but his flirting is mistaken for a job offer by a bunch of dumbass adventurers.

They all assume that their new leader is just really passionate and attentive to all their needs.

He assumes that all of his new boyfriends/girlfriends are just very serious and prefer armor/swords/arrows as gifts instead of flowers and chocolates.

Hijinx ensue. Mostly due to Richie being a very accepting sweetheart and Sal being a stupid twink.

on Fruit and Polyamory

One of the things that I was profoundly unprepared for when my lord husband and I began to explore polyamory was the sheer amount of fruit it would mean in my life.

It started small: he would return from a tryst with a small container of pineapple and some leftover blueberries from a cobbled-together hotel brunch.

But it quickly escalated. Soon, I had fresh berries most weeks and was frantically googling wtf to do with a dragonfruit. Heirloom lemons-that-look-like-sumo-mandarins were the most recent shock—both because I thought they were oranges and tried to eat one and because they appeared in a decorative basket.

I joke that these are his paramours' offerings to me and, after he has returned from a recent tryst, I beeline for the fridge to discover what my take is.

Of course, I'm also feeling guilty that I don't send my paramours home with fruit (although I find myself without an exotic heirloom citrus tree).

imagine a world where polyamory exist

[watfang]

my partner popped into our room after a shower and asked if i wanted to have a threesome with them and our housemate, something that we haven’t done for ~2 years. i was very game for it, so we all assembled in our room and awkwardly chilled on the bed for a moment. since it had been so long since we’d all been intimate together, there was a real sense of “how do we do this again?” that was quickly broken as my housemate and i began to kiss our partner from both sides.

we hooked our legs around their legs, spreading them apart and running our hands along their inner thighs. they moaned beneath us as we held them down, variously covering their mouth, nipping at their chest, running hands around their neck, and toying with their pussy, which was still hidden behind their underwear. our housemate pulls said panties aside and begins to finger them and soon I join in. we take turns this way, muzzling our partner and fingerfucking them until they noisily cum beneath us.

our partner strips and strips our housemate, then goes down on them as i play with them from behind. i love watching them suck our housemate’s cock and evidently our housemate loves it to; they grab our partner’s hair to pull them down hard on their dick, which our partner gleefully gags upon. the attention shifts and i undress. my partner now lies over me as they suck on my cock while our housemate fingers their ass from behind. i hold my partner down while our housemate gets deep inside of them until they say that it’s too deep and we pause.

all now naked, i admire their bodies, my partners soft belly and strong ass and dripping pussy, our housemate’s curved chest and attentive cock. our partner kneels in our housemate’s lap, rubbing against their fingers and their hardness as they stroke me; eventually, they ask if our housemate would like to stroke me, which they do and god does it feel nice to have their hand around my wet cock.

i have my partner mount me and ride me, then coax our housemate to toy with their ass while they ride me. it part, i ask for this because of house close i felt to cumming and how little i wanted to do that just yet. our housemate gets behind my partner and, lubed cock in hand, begins to toy with their hole. i can feel the pressure of their cockhead squeezing inside our plaything’s inexperienced hole, in turn pressing against my own erection which remains buried deep in their pussy. i love the feeling; i love how close all suddenly felt as our housemate pressed in and how thrilling it was to get to do this incredibly hot thing together. we were sweaty and moaning into one another’s shoulders as our housemate gently pressed further into their ass and slowly began to thrust.

it didn’t last long but it was like nothing else i’ve quite felt before. when it became too much for our partner, we disentangled and our housemate stepped away to wash off their cock. when they returned to find my partner and i making out, we devised an ending to this scenario: we’d each cum inside our partner, with whoever was second using the first’s cum as lube. i was volunteered for first taker and so again i was straddled by our partner who’s pussy was wet and inviting. they rode me hard, slapping my face and pressing their hands on my neck until i erupted within them, pulling their upper body into mine. the pressure and angle were good and after i came, i rocked against them until they began to moan, louder and louder, until they, too, came around my cock.

we split apart and dutifully my partner straddled our housemate, whose cock was still hard from watching us. it’s always so hot to get to watch them fuck, to watch our partner using and being used by someone who isn’t me, someone who fucks them differently than i do. i loved watching them adjust positions two or three times until our partner coaxed them into an orgasm too, spilling their load deep into the partner i had just fucked and filled with my own cum just minutes before.

more soon, one has to hope

[ID: 1. Picture of Gao Yizhi, Wu Zetian and Li Shimin from Iron Widow. 2. Picture of Tree Trunks, Mr Pig and Alien Husband from Adventure Time. /end ID]

Meet the contestants!

Wu Zetian/Li Shimin/Gao Yizhi

Status: Canon

Description: Wu Zetian and Gao Yizhi know each other prior to the start of the events in the book, and are in love with each other, but for a number of different reasons, Zetian refuses to act on it, constantly convincing herself he doesn’t actually like her. Zetian leaves to become a concubine pilot, and after some major events, is paired up with Li Shimin, the most powerful pilot and also considered the most dangerous. Their relationship develops from one of distrust to love due to the strong bond they share from piloting the same mecha (and learning more about each other). Yizhi comes back into Zetian’s life and joins the two of them, firstly under the excuse of helping Shimin deal with his alcoholism. It’s very clear from their first meeting that Yizhi is attracted to Shimin, and eventually the three of them become a triangle polycule.

Tree Trunks/Mr. Pig/Alien Husband

Status: Canon

Description: Throughout the episode in which Alien Husband is in, Tree Trunks sends hints for wanting this type of relationship. Mr Pig at first was uncomfortable, but by the end he is fine with Tree Trunks being with him and Alien Husband. Also, Tree Trunks has an adopted kid with Mr Pig (Sweet P) and with Alien Husband (Unnamed Children).

I hope this isn’t crossing a line to ask but I was reading about your sub adventures and idk maybe I’m being close minded but how exactly did you and your wife get to that point? Like she’s truly not jealous or anything? Like is that relationship going to be strictly sex or are you both open to more? Idk that whole world to me is just so foreign and I’d love to know what it’s like.

Not crossing a line at all.

This got long as fuck so putting a read more.

So, here's the thing. You have to have a rock solid relationship with your "primary," aka the partner who was there first and will continue to be first and foremost. Neither of us finds jealousy attractive, and it just isn't something that has ever played a part in our relationship because...we talk? I know that seems over simplified, but it's true. I never have to guess where I stand or what she is thinking because if I don't know, I'll ask, and vice versa.

Trust plays a HUGE role. There can't be any secrets. Period. Full stop. I literally tell Kat everything. She knows who I'm talking to because I tell her. I WANT to tell her. She's the love of my life. I could easily toss her my phone and tell her to look up something, and if she so desired, she could read every single message I've ever sent to the men I meet. She doesn't need to because she trusts me, but the option is there.

We've had people tell us, "Oh, I could never do that because I would be too jealous." And to me, that is a red flag? Jealousy implies lack of trust, and yeah, if you're gonna be jealous, then you can't do this. Plain and simple. We run into this issue a LOOOOOOT on Fet with hetero couples. Their core relationship is struggling, so instead of getting uncomfortable and digging to the root of the problem, they open their marriage, thinking that will fix everything..IN WHAT WORLD DOES THAT MAKE SENSE. idk don't ask me, man. But that has been the most consistent and frustrating part about all of this. I wind up playing marriage counselor because they will say to me what they feel they can't say to each other, and I'm like, how is this my job? I just want to be fucked/choked a little. Im not your therapist. And finding a Unicorn won't fix your marriage, Deborah/Kyle. That can't possibly fall to me. 😅

As far as that person's role in our lives, they have to bring something to the table. They have to benefit us in some way. What men on Fet seem to not understand is that if we wanted to just fuck someone, we could. But we are looking for a bit more than that. We're not saying we are looking for a husband or someone to move in, but we don't really do one night stands, especially with me looking for a full time Dom, there has to be trust and a connection.

Example: one of the most consistent men we've been talking to is very up front with the fact that he just wants to be FWB, however, he knows we are PEOPLE and he is adamant about making sure that the 'FRIENDS' is kept in the fwb equation. He will sext me and get downright filthy, but there are also times when he sends me pictures of his kid at baseball practice or his trip to the botanical gardens and always asks about my day. (He literally stopped talking about eating me out to show me the pumpkins he was growing on his family farm yesterday. 🤣 he is the definition of golden retriever)

We have always been open to the idea of polyamory and view love as it's not a piece of a pie that people take chunks out of, and then it's gone and all used up. Instead, love is always about addition, and if we were to find a third, it's just MORE LOVE. Love is not a finite resource.

I once had a guy on Fet ask me, "If you love your wife so much, then why are you looking for a third? What's missing in your relationship?" And I told him that first off, that's rude as hell, but I gave him an answer. What's missing? Nothing. Literally nothing. We could pack this shit up tomorrow and close our Fetlife accounts, and be 100% happy the way we are. It's not about something missing, it's about the fact that the two of us have more to GIVE.

At the end of the day, we look at this situation with the knowledge that we are so fucking incredibly lucky. Because no matter what happens, we have each other. Our relationship with our third could go down in flames, and yet, I'll still have the love of my life standing beside me, sleeping next to me, navigating the world. And when you have a fail safe like that, it's really easy to put yourself out there and be brutally honest. I'm able to tell the people I meet on Fet, 'Hey, this is me. Here are my flaws, here are my desires, you cool or not?' It is so efficient 😅 I'm too old to play games and know what love is and should feel like, we're a package deal and if they can't hang, then thank you for playing but next contestant.

I hope that helps a bit? The bottom line is that it's not easy because if it were, then everyone would do it.
