Poly + LDR = our crazy whirlwind

[EmpressFi]

bumping for those who are interested...

yesturday was the one month anniversary of my collaring (and the five month anniversary of viv's). it was really a night to be remembered.there has been so much going on over here that life has been on crazy happy hectic blur.

a few nights ago i was registered on the slave register (see new location), and it felt amazingly RIGHT.

for the first time the LDR part of the relationship has all but been wiped clean and it is the happiest ive been in a long time. i am fully aware now that i made the right descision in ending the (as Master says "toxic") relationship with A and moving on to this fabulous new part of my life.

as for viv and i, things couldnt be better. if we arent spending time with Homburg we are off together doing something or other, plotting, planing, and just enjoying each other's... company

and on a note that needs a picture to accompany it but its not on my camera so i cant post, (mabye Homburg coul do that for me...) yesterday i got his initial carved lightly into my upper thigh. once more, and i fear i am overusing this word but it applies, amazing.

we have truly transformed from a girl on her computer many states away from the people she loved but hadnt met or had much time with to a happy healthy working and wonderful triad (see Homburg's AV) that i can see lasting a long long time.

I'm so happy for the three of you..and jealous.. now to convince Master to move to Cleveland

I don't envy you that task. After all, you want him to move TO Cleveland?

A lot of times, I think "nothing ever goes right" and "love doesn't win out in the end" and "there's no point in having courage" and stuff like that. Then, I look at the three of y'all, and I realize that I'm wrong.

It couldn't have happened to three better people.

I still wonder why they opened an office in Cleveland. Then I realised that at least Cleveland ain't Philly

I frequently tell myself "Hey, it could be worse. You could be in Philly."

You're welcome. You're my hero. (Said with total sincerity.)

<snip> And, let's face it, poly or no, in most relationships, somebody's going to get hurt. I think your perceptions of poly are colored by your own experiences, but some of us genuinely love this lifestyle. Nothing--and I mean nothing--lasts forever. It's something Yeti and I were talking about the other day. You can't live your life in fear of what may go wrong. Something will screw up eventually, despite your best efforts. The best thing any of us can do is know that it won't last forever and enjoy the here and now.

QFT and utter brilliance......made me realize some things so thanx

I still wonder why they opened an office in Cleveland. Then I realised that at least Cleveland ain't Philly

Grrrrr...

I frequently tell myself "Hey, it could be worse. You could be in Philly."

Now, now, don't be mean.... Philly vs. Cleveland. Well, which one is closer to NYC? Hah, so there ppft

I actually came in here to see what was up with the poly ldr-ness and there is so much to be learned here so many thanks for starting this thread. You guys are my heroes and definate kudos in order for serijules and the repeated brilliance and insight too *nods* haven't ever considered poly myself. I think that little green-eyed monster would have issues at least in my case. Must say that you have my respect and admiration for having the guts to go for it and hearts big enough to accept a love that's bigger than societal constraints. It's a testament to your strength as people. Best wishes for the three of you. Seeing your happiness...ok...enough words lol...you guys rock!

Not being mean, just honest. And I don't mind driving a few hours more to get anywhere if it means I don't have to live in Philly =)

Well, I'll tell you what I tell all folk what ain't poly.

DON'T DO IT. It's too tough, too difficult, too painful, and too messy. If, at some point, you find that you can't avoid it, well, give it all you've got. But don't jump in thinking that it's cool. It's frikken hard.

Worth it though.

I've lived in Norfolk, VaBeach, and Richmond VA, and I've lived in Hamden CT, worked in Bridgeport, CT and moved down here to Camden/Cherry Hill area in 1996. I would drive anywhere to not have to be anywhere near Philly. I love the museums and Fairmont Park. I love this historical stuff, but living near two of the murder capitals of the world... um. no. I've had enough, I'm going home to the midwest.

Poly for over 2 years now, in this relationship for 18 months... yeah, what he said. I wont say it's an "incredible journey" because honestly, I think that phrase is just overused and eats at my stomach when I hear/or read it. But yeah.. it's tough, and it takes work to balance everyone so no one feels left out. But ahh yes.. it is SO very worth it.

Just poking in to say that I'm happy to hear things are going well.

I'm just poking in to say that I like Philly.

Is it the 24-hour detox clinics or the Paternity Test center billboards that do it for you?

 

[callinectes]

Wow, I just caught up on all of this. I am very happy for you all! Congrats!!

Both, but only with provolone. Fuck that cheese wiz shit!

I thought it was Velveeta....

Really? I just saw some food network thing on it. You'd think I'd remember. I'm from Northern California. We don't do processed cheese.

I haven't been to Philly in ages, but I have some good memories of that town. I like the houses, and some of the restaurants are nice.

No.. it's Cheese whiz.. you can say with or without, and they know what you mean

Hommie... You know i *adore* you... but if you bust on Philly ONE MORE TIME i just might have to HURT you.

I believe you...
However I think I would prefer Velveeta. (I don't eat Velveeta but I miss it anyway and think it might be the slightly lesser of two evils on the health scale.)

I had a faux Philly Cheese steak tonight. Made with provolone. I gave up after about 3 bites. The worst one I've ever had. Salty as hell too.

My absolute favorite cheesesteak isnt from Philly. It's from a place here in Jersey called Gaetano's. It is a small (still about 8 inches of bread and 8000 lbs of beef), garlic bread cheese steak with extra cheese. It uses american cheese, melted allthough it and placed on toasted garlic bread.
