  • No heartbeat on ultrasound

    Monday, March 10, 2008 | A Painful story

    I went in for my u/s this afternoon and my worst fears have come true.  I was supposed to be 9 weeks and 4 days and the baby measured 8 weeks and there was no heartbeat.  I am devastated.  I can not believe that this is happening again to me.  Everything seemed to be going so well.  I had no bleeding whatsoever.  They gave me the choice of miscarrying naturally or go...

  • D day for me !!

    Wednesday, April 30, 2008 | A Painful story

    Hello to all my DS friends, Well the day has finally arrived for me to tell Martyn (my current partner) that our relationship has come to an end. Dreading it but it has to be done. I'm not completely happy in this relationship and I can't stay any longer just because it's the safest option available to me, that would not be fair on me or him to do that. I have to admit my future reall...

  • The world of poly

    Sunday, September 28, 2008 | A Painful story

    When my husband first brought up the idea of polyamory, I was skeptical, afraid, and a bit in denial.. that is, I didn't really think he'd find someone else to be with and, being bisexual, I wanted a girlfriend so I half laughingly agreed. I dove into articles about polyamory, joined a forum, read like mad and asked questions at a mile a minute. I read a lot about what polyamory was and m...

  • Passion

    Tuesday, September 30, 2008 | A Painful story

    But don't you understand?  Passion doesn't always count.
    My brother was very passionate about everything when I was growing up.  We always had to take certain routes in the car.  It didn't matter if the routes took us on dirt roads and took us hours longer to reach our destination.  He was passionate about lists.  He would constantly demand that I give him my f...
