I was in a committed relationship with two people—and then I got pregnant.

The night I found out I was going to be a mom I sat down next to my husband Kevin, clutching the pregnancy test in one hand and holding his hand with the other, the three minutes waiting for the test results felt like forever. I think in that span of time I felt every emotion known to man: happy at the possibilities, mad that I had thrown up the steak and cheese I made for myself earlier that day, anxious to know the results, and of course scared beyond belief. My husband has always been someone I could see myself building a family with. We were together for three years, but I knew on our first date this was a man I could spend the rest of my life with.

As the test turned from the little hourglass into a sign that read ‘Pregnant: 1-2 Weeks' I looked at my husband and began to cry. I couldn't handle the wave of emotions that came over me. As for him, he was thrilled to be a dad. He's always been the type whom you could tell wanted to be a father since they were younger, as he was always taking care of those around him. That's just his personality. He's always thought of everyone else over himself, even at this moment when he was glowing with excitement he asked if I was alright.

I gripped his hand tighter and nodded while continuing to cry. I was happy. With his next breath he said, "I can't wait to tell Sarah." And in that instance I knew I had the perfect partners to start a family with. Sarah is my girlfriend and together she, Kevin, and I were about to begin a new journey as we started our family.

I'm sure that sounds confusing, so I guess it is best I should start from the beginning. From the moment I met my husband through our mutual friends, he and I spoke about how I've never really believed in committing myself to one man or one woman for the rest of my life. I was upfront from the start that I am polyamorous and he accepted me for all that I am.

For those who don't know, polyamory (or 'poly' for short), to put it simply, is the belief that you can love more than one person. It has no religious base. It is not some weird sex fetish. It is just the word that describes thousands of people throughout the world who choose not to limit themselves to one person for the rest of their lives. There are many different forms of poly relationships; some people have as many as 5 different partners at a time, but for me I could only see myself being with one man and one woman.

Fake article. No byline. A pure propaganda PC piece in first person narrative, for teenage girl consumption.

The Left.

All lies.

All the time.

“For your own good.”

Yes, to indoctrinate the young masses.

Linked from www.yahoo.com , that is what surprised me.

I actually know somebody who was in one of these relationships. I was stunned when she told me.

With room on the floor for dog pooh, since dogs and other animals will soon be in the group marriage “mix”.

Don't worry - the Muslims will sort them out...

Imagine the liberal surprise and outrage when they find out that your statement is true.

We need a subjective opinion.

Fake article. No byline.

From the end of the linked article: "Lizzie Leis is a 26 year old woman working in the Human Services field by day and singing in the rock band Project Alice by night. She lives with her husband, girlfriend, and daughter in a suburb outside of Worcester, MA. You can find her socially awkward social media ramblings on Twitter @LizzieLeis."

Exactly. The bottom of the slippery slope is the intended destination. Never doubt it.

Who thought we’d be talking about homo marriage when not too long ago it was considered a mental disease and/or crime?

Thanks to Obama they are going to be coming out of the woodwork.

And in a good square dance, don’t you end up dancing with everyone in the room??

Good point. And in that same vein, the reason that Baptists have a prohibition on husbands and wives having sex in a standing position, is that it just might lead to DANCING!

Thanks for the correction.

I still think it's propaganda, though.

'Sick' is right!

I'm sure that sounds confusing, so I guess it is best I should start from the beginning.

A husband and a girlfriend? No, that is not confusing to us. But obviously, ms. whoever-you-are, YOU are hugely confused. As will be your kid in short order.
