Do you ever feel that it's too much sometimes?

Contributor: TakeHimAway TakeHimAway
Do you ever feel like it's too much, sometimes? Sometimes, I feel too overwhelmed. Two of the women I'm dating are from prior places I've lived, both moving here within the next year or so, and one is local.

When my life is spinning out of control and I don't know if I'm coming or going it can seem like it's all too much. The thing is, when it starts to feel this way I have two wonderful people who love me deeply that I can talk to, lean on (for a bit), and they are so willing to help me feel like I have my schedule back under control.

Having a long distance relationship is stressful, time consuming and just plain old painful...it's worth it for so many reasons but it's not easy. Perhaps a good heartfelt talk/verbal cuddle session would be very helpful for you all...I know it works for me.

Both of the poly relationships I was in I felt i twas too much and that I was spinning out of control. I think I just do better single with an occasional play partner here and there.

With any relationship it can sometimes feel like to much. I agree with Airen when she says you should take the time to talk with your partners and tell them how you feel, sometimes it is just the same way for them. I have never been in a poly relationship but am in, and have been before, an open one. It gets to be a whirl wind with this as well and that is when we would sit down and talk about things. Give it a try and see if it is not the right thing to do. Good luck I hope you can work things out.

I agree with this, fully.

I agree that sometimes it is too much, and recently had an experience where our girlfriend wasn't understanding of the fact that I need a lot of personal space and it became extremly stressful. I learned a lot through this situation though and know what kind of personality works for us [me], and what doesn't.

With any type of relationship there are going to be time needed for you time. I have days when I just want to be without anyone that wants to have sex with me in any way. I know that I have my husband that is with me most of the time, since he is retired and home. We have friends that we are true friends with that we also play with but not all the time, we have times when we just want time for us also. It happens to every one no matter how much you love or care about the others in your circle of friends you have to make time for you and each person has to see that. Or we end up like this . If we take that time for each of us then we can be like this again .

Yeah. And I mean, I'm an introvert. And that's sometimes a complex balance.

I have been trying to be better at taking breaks, having personal space, realizing that being alone can be happy time too. And should be, for me.
