    Are you single or not ?

    I'm married and interested in someone, but he doesn't know I'm polyamorous and I'm still figuring out how to tell him without sounding too aggressive.

    Poll: A Tricky Moral Dilemma

    The man opted out, meaning he wasn't going to get killed to feed the rest. But that also meant that if whoever drew was not big enough to feed everyone, the guy who opted out would have been the one to starve. Because he opted out, there was more food for everyone else, whether it was his intent...

    Poll: Men with purses

    My previous post was swallowed, so here is the summary: You should be able to have a purse or a coin bag. You don't need to though. Coins go fine in a wallet, mine can hold enough coins to weigh me down and make several rolls whenever I decide to empty it. And as for purses, messenger bags...

    Poll: Super-scientific sex poll! (Vote only if 18 or older)

    Well, I'm 27, had a steady partner for 5 years (we even got married), now in another steady relationship which is getting close to three years long, obviously had sex way more than 10 times (neither me nor my partners are asexual), probably in the hundreds or thousands I guess. 10 seems like a...

    When you want to write but your well is tapped

    As others have said... Successful writers usually say that they just write all the time. They see it as their job. I remember one author who explained that on top of his day job, he made sure to write for 8 hours a day (when he still had a day job, before living off his work). Sometimes he...

    Escape to the Movies: Les Miserables

    It was my first experience with the musical (although I've read the book many times and seen many different movie adaptations) and like you I really liked the songs, and like you I found it really rushed, but since I have read the book and know the story, I can tell you the whole thing is...

    Question about non-US schools

    France, never had anything like that. The closest was the school party, at the end of the year, where parents brought cakes that they made, game them to the school, and then the school sold slice of them to other parents. You could also donate clothes that other people would buy, etc, the whole...

    So, I'm asexual, and I feel like that's going to make me die alone.

    Have you tried AVEN? Seems to me like online ace communities would help you meet other aces, and even if you don't end up falling for any of them, you'd feel less lonely, and it would be people to relate to. Plus they have a "sexual/asexual relationships" section if you end up meeting someone...

    A Poly relationship

    Everybody says it's easier, if there are two current partners and one is male and the other female, for the female partner to find other partners than it is for the male. In my case, I currently have only one partner, who is male, and the opposite has happened, in that I've been rejected by...

    A Poly relationship

    I'm already poly, although I've never been in a triad. Since I'm straight and I've only ever been with straight guys, at this point the only realistic options for me are Vs, Ns, quads and so on. Triads just wouldn't be possible since we don't have the right combination of sexual orientations for...

    Kixeye Recruits With Unicorns, Helicopters, Maniacal Children

    You can always give it a try. They're hiring for all sorts of positions, and they might hire you at the bottom and then you can work your way up. You're definitely not going to get hired if you don't apply, but you might if you do. I think if you're a gamer, you're passionate about games, and...

    Weight problems, and money

    I would suggest herbal tea, it doesn't have the caffeine, there are lots of flavours and the only sugar will be sugar you add in yourself. Regular tea if you do want the caffeine. Both can be drunk hot or cold. Eating healthy isn't that expensive. It's cheaper to buy beans and rice and frozen...

    Do you think i did the right thing?

    Obviously you don't get STDs or STIs from yourself, but you can get them from other people without having sex. Many are transmissible in other ways, such as from one's mother if she had it before they were born through blood transfusion, in some cases through saliva (depends on the disease, HIV...

    The Big Picture: Shell Shock

    While it's true that the original Japanese name is Eggman, Robotnik doesn't mean Eggman. It means "worker" in Polish.
