how we do the poly thing
I have no idea how other people negotiate and communicate about their poly relationship issues. This is how Mike and I did it
Lisa: um -- I know that you don't mind who the heck I have sex with... but that's usually not my problem. It's the falling in love with thing that gets me.
Mike: yeah i know
Lisa: and since we're so different on this aspect, I have difficulty reading you, and with us being so much apart and all, I don't know what your comfort level is now. If you were here, I wouldn't worry...
Mike: I am not sure why you are worried now
Lisa: I don't want to hurt your feelings by letting myself go, emotionally. I don't think that it will get physical at all. I have to talk to him about his boundaries, still.
Mike: you are more then capable of loving more then one person
Lisa: well *I* know that. I guess I just need to make sure that you know that.
Mike: if you need to remind me of that then I am very sssslllllooooowwwww
Lisa: *chuckle*
Lisa: I love you, sweet man.
Mike: I love you too. And that is why I am not worried about this
Lisa: ok -- so, if I get all crazy, you'll walk me through it?
Mike: just let me know what kind of walking you need help with
Lisa: don't know yet. Probably the "this is driving me crazy" kind of walking. I think that I'm all hyped up on hormones this week, too. Last night, while we were sitting and talking, my shoe would brush up against his boot and it was like an electric shock.
Mike: If you go crazy while I am down here you would just have to talk to me more, and I don't see the down side of that yet. Ok, go jump Len first then go see Keith.
Lisa: I wish I could just turn that part of me off.
Mike: no you don't
Lisa: well, when I'm around Keith, anyways
Mike: it is too big a part of you
Lisa: is it?
Mike: that is how I got you and what makes you fun to be around
Lisa: I don't feel very...like people look at me in a sensual way -- Wait -- You got Me? I thought that I got You!
Mike: you are so curvy and soft that every one must love you
Lisa: oh, now everyone is looking, 'cause I'm laughing so hard....
Mike: that is a good thing
Mike: and, no, I got you without even trying
Lisa: HA! like a ripe peach, eh?
Lisa: um -- I know that you don't mind who the heck I have sex with... but that's usually not my problem. It's the falling in love with thing that gets me.
Mike: yeah i know

I spewed water all over the keyboard.
That line is positively great (and 200% true).
Mike rules.
Did I mention I love you?
*smooch*
*runs off*
