Hi NaughtyKitten,

I'm interested in the responses you'll get here because we're in a somewhat similar situation. Our semi-poly relationship ended less than 48 hours ago and I (MRS) am crushed and hurting quite a bit. We didn't plan on becoming so close to this other couple, but found most aspects of the relationship to be quite enjoyable (before the drama started).

Being four of us, the relationship was very difficult. Feelings were lopsided. MR and girlfriend enjoyed eachother, but thier feelings probably weren't as strong as the ones boyfriend and I had developed for eachother. As girlfriend developed jealousy, our relationship suffered as well.

Do you think you want to try another sort-of poly relationship? I'm not sure if it's something we'd do again... we'll see. Pain is too fresh right now to make a good decision. Hubby and I didn't have any problems with the situation, so our relationship has remained strong, but the pain of losing them still hurts incredibly deep. I'm just not sure how many times I could put myself through something like this.

We met our friends on SLS...I really don't know many ways to meet new people. I'll keep watching for good suggestions.

I hope your broken heart mends quickly.
MRS
