Today has been all about discussing loving more than one person at the same time. We all had interesting contributions to the conversation. Liz provided the possibility of thinking that in relationships there are times when one person can feel more for another in a relationship at different times as it progresses. Eli put in his two cents of the necessity for honest conversation and that a group of 4 people sounds easier than 3 because swinging brings in the possibility that there isn't someone left out-- like when going to the ferris wheel-- 3's a crowd. Lauren reminded us that in relationships, one has to be conscious of each persons' autonomy and individuality as they are rather than as a couple or triple or and other dynamic. I remembered that at times I think I have a difficult time owning and feeling some harder, more specific feelings like anger or jealousy and adding more people means more opportunities for that. Only with the willingness and ability to communicate all those feelings does the relationship then have the propensity to go from idealistic, theoretical want into becoming a functional healthy relationship.
With that said, I want to row on a crew team. I'd be so hot. Cut and rippling muscle.
I want to start growing little baby mota seeds. Awww.
Who's up to play racquetball with me? Tree 9?
Focus.
