I feel that it is the reverse. The females must make it work and it is entirely their responsibility to make it work. My females must love each other. "If you fail to love your sister, you are going to get it from me." I wouldn't tolerate kissing her just to please me.


I find this a little odd ^
Surely you must all work at making it work? We are what we consider to be very successful poly. Everyone plays a part in that poly relationship and nobody sits back idly blaming other people within the relationship.
If there is clearly no chemistry between two subs then no matter what you demand, you won't get to see reality, just women pretending for your benefit. If You take the time to work things out with 'Them' then perhaps things can change and move forward.



The hardship I don't mind. What I am saying is, "Keep your priorities straight. You must obey me and that means working it out. We are a team. Great sex isn't what the relationship is about. Pretending for my benefit in order to please me is only icing on my cake." What I want to avoid is, "I've done enough. I've pleased my Man in bed." Pleasing me isn't enough. You must please your sisters as well. To quote my profile text in its present incarnation: "I am willing to permit my females ... to suffer on my behalf much as God permits us to suffer."

The www.polygamydating.com ads in the article really cracked me up.

While this makes sense, I don't see it being an issue for polygamy as we refer to it here on CC:

Considered the most comprehensive study of polygamy and the institution of marriage, the study finds significantly higher levels rape, kidnapping, murder, assault, robbery and fraud in polygynous cultures. According to Henrich and his research team, which included Profs. Robert Boyd (UCLA) and Peter Richerson (UC Davis), these crimes are caused primarily by pools of unmarried men, which result when other men take multiple wives.

"The scarcity of marriageable women in polygamous cultures increases competition among men for the remaining unmarried women," says Henrich, adding that polygamy was outlawed in 1963 in Nepal, 1955 in India (partially), 1953 in China and 1880 in Japan. The greater competition increases the likelihood men in polygamous communities will resort to criminal behavior to gain resources and women, he says.

Ive been reading this post ... and there seems to be a lot of advice being flung about - but besides LP, is anyone on this panel actually IN a successful poly relationship?

True. I just thought it was interesting from a social view point. The study unfortunately did not address the competitive and emotional issues within the poly family.

I suppose since I started this thread that still appears to be going, I will weigh in again.

I am still looking, but not "actively" at the moment. What I seek will find me or me them eventually.

The reason that I am secondary to a relationship is the woman is often married to him. That is fine with me, it shows me that the man cared enough to marry her, and isn't afraid of commitment. I am not only looking for a relationship with another submissive woman, I would mesh in a relationship with a submissive man or two Dominants. It is the family I seek.

The female doesn't even have to be bi-sexual, it's not a must. A perk, but not a must. As a submissive, I do not expect sex, it's not my place to demand. Yes, I do expect to have my desires considered, but as for their being granted, it's not my place to demand it. I am not even seeking to live in the household as a must, nor expect to sleep in the bed with them every night. (If either of those happens, it is fine, but it is not a "must".)

It was so much easier when I was going to the swinging groups, the feeling was much more relaxed. Perhaps because it was two couples? Or the S/M parties where I was tied to a chair and others were allowed to do as they wished with me, or He would simply hand me over to someone else's custody for an hour or two. There was no fear, no resentment, no worries that the world was not right. No jealousy, no passive-aggressive behavior, just adults at ease with the way the tide was flowing at the moment.

I will find that again, I have faith. Not all unicorns are looking to steal the Dominant in the relationship, if I wanted a single person, I would seek a single person. Not all of the "good ones" are taken. Honest. (I wouldn't want  a man <in this or the vanilla world>who would break off a relationship to be with me. The men who seek "a triad" simply because they are bored will become bored with me and seek out another.)

I have no problems being an occasional third in a relationship, but it should be stated at the beginning what it is, and all should be content with that. Ditto for if everyone involved wishes a triad relationship as a LTR. Honesty on everyone's part. Not just her submitting to his wishes regarding me. I am sorry if saying that I will not be in a relationship knowing that my presence makes another sad or jealous or whatever negative emotion the reluctant third is feeling, but it would make me feel miserable in the long run.

It's early,  I haven't had my coffee and PMS hormones are raging in my blood and as always, my opinions are purely my own, they might not mesh with yours, or your idea of protocol. That's okay. If we were all a pack of stupid sheep with the herd mentality, none of us would have the courage to break from the vanilla herd to admit we enjoy S/M or B/D or were bi-sexual, homosexual, transsexual, etc.. Wouldn't that be a very boring world?

Now why did you change your nic? Never met lost unicorn. The ones I have met tended to know where they are and where they want to go. They just might not know how to get there.
