I never stayed up until 3 am talking to anyone

Married now.

We got old and now 3am has week long consequences.

Obligatory wife acknowledgement.

But also obligatory Xkcd which honestly really sums up part of why I love being polyamorous. Even in my 30s I love the feeling of being up all night getting to know someone and figuring out how its all going to go. It’s one of the true joys in life to me. Though I’ll admit it doesn’t happen at 3 am anymore, if I’m up that late my body gets mad at me

Cash-drawer or plough?

That was almost 40 years ago. We stopped the phone calls once we got together, it’s easier to talk in bed now. Also cheaper, those long distance bills then… :/

I married her nearly 20 years ago. And sometimes we’re still up til 3 am talking. No regrets.

Dumb take, even if you broke up. Those were real experiences that shaped you, and you probably wouldn’t be the same person if you had slept instead.

Don’t regret past lovers, accept that lots of things in life are temporary, and that’s okay.

She’s in our bed

Unless it was “up until 3:00AM arguing”, this is time well spent. Quality time with others is peak human living.

I also married one of them, but the rest were mostly positive experiences also.

You sleep every day but you only get so many of those interactions in life

Yep, they’re right here. Happily married.

We were roommates. And then just kept being roommates. Even became good friends.

We’re married.
