Claire: "......"
Clinton: "What?"

Honestly as funny as that exchange was it's actually a reasonable question. Her advice is great but he still needs to handle the current situation in an amount of time shorter than a full journey of self acceptance. Either it will be a "let's see where this goes/take it slow" or a "I'm not ready for this right now."

--- Quote from: Gnabberwocky on 19 Aug 2020, 15:19 ---I'm sorry if I'm being ignorant about the poly relationship stuff. Any talk I've received about sexual orientation and relationships has completely skipped over that as an option; in fact, prior to Marten meeting Tai (which I first read ~4 months ago), I really didn't know they truly existed at all. Please tell me if I say anything else rude or offensive or just plain forgetful on that front.

Oh, nothing rude or offensive that I noticed. Just that in all the speculations and last week's poll listing all kinds of constellations, Brun/Mille + Clinton/Elliot and Clinton/Elliot/Brun were treated as mutually exclusive and the idea of "all of the above" didn't come up, but that doesn't make sense. Well, not to me at least. Then again, the whole concept of monogamy doesn't really make sense to me. It's a common misconception, though also a preference of some, that everyone has to be involved with everyone in a polyamorous relationship. While the more common reality seems to be along the lines of "A is involved with B and C, B and C hopefully get along, B is also married to D, C is casually dating a few other people, monogamous friends regularly ask for diagrams", oh and "A and B are looking for a 'third' to 'add to their relationship' and are surprised at the shortage of hot bi girls lining up to date both of them".

--- End quote ---
Do people really do this? My fantasies get way ahead of me. That's what they're FOR.
I want to see Clinton go to the Horrible Revelation for a thoughtful beer and get some relationship advice from Jimbo.
--- End quote ---
Then completely ignore it as is right & proper because Jimbo.
--- End quote ---
Alternatively, treat whatever Jimbo says as "what to absolutely not do under any circumstances, on pain of pain."

--- Quote from: marbledmurrelet on 19 Aug 2020, 14:10 ---Sigh... How about, relationships don't have orientations or gender identities so they can't be queer or straight? :?
--- End quote ---
People are hard coded to categorize things, and we've been walking around with this particular brand of baggage culturally hammered into us for hundreds of years. You might be waiting a while for such a simple and obvious concept to actually be simple an obvious to most people. :laugh:
