I had another friend come out as part of a polyamorous group. That makes five families I know of...and it kinda makes me edgy. Not because I think it's a bad thing, something immoral, or frowned upon. If it works, more power to ya. But considering how much my own family has either smothered me, or shunned me, I look at these fringe families working and functioning better than my traditional one, and it makes me itch.
I'm jealous. REALLY jealous.
But I also gotta admit, I'm not a poly person. I lived with a family who helped me up when I was down, and while I was at amazed how well things functioned...I'm just not a people person. I guess I'm a product of the smother/shun thing, because I get lonely very easily, but also can't stand to be around too many people for too long.
Just one of those android-head-explode logic loops I needed to air out.
In other news - RELAY CALLS SUCK. WE have TTY lines, people....
