Some background...I write stuff. I'm being published next year with an alternative lifestyle book that is a series (two books finished and waiting for the publisher to do their part).
The third book will probably have characters who are a poly group/family. At this point I'm literally just beginning to work on the plot and basic character traits but everything is still just vague ideas. I would appreciate if if any who are in poly relationships could talk about:
Terminology? Any special words that poly families use?
How the relationship started. Were you looking or did you just fall into it?
Who leads? Why?
How do you express your love and affection for each other? (I know, it sounds weird to the point that it seems like I think being poly isn't 'normal'. Not the case, I'm looking for specific things you might do - that vanilla or other kinky pair partners might not do. Do you hide flowers for one of your partners to find? Or secretly put slips of paper with wishes on them into books for the next reader to find? Wait, that sounds fun, into the book that goes! Maybe. )
Any extended family issues?
Social issues in public places like restaurants and clubs? What about Church if you attend one?
Shopping, general and grocery types, anything special or different than when you were not in a poly family?
Personalities - shy, bold, strong, childish, playful...?
Sleeping habits and arrangements?
Better to live in an apt/condo or house?
Big city or small town?
Any vignettes you would like to share about funny or sad things in your life because of your poly family?
I'm not going to use anything posted here. I'm just looking for information on how poly families live, love and play together. I'm really looking to get information from the emotional side rather than the physical though physical love between guys is important if your poly group is MFM. Tell me how you love each other and how that fits into your daily life.
If you HAD a poly relationship and it's over; if it's not too hurtful, can you tell me what happened and why?
DISCLAIMER!
Don't be gross. Please. I'm not looking for a relationship with anyone here. I have my own and I'm stable in it. What I''m looking for is background material for the book, not wank fodder. Anything helps, even a 'Fuck off, pervert!' if that's what makes your day special.
There also won't be much to show for this thread. Like I mentioned already, it's background material and I still have to think about how, or if, it fits into the plot.
