Seeking a sister wife

Welcome to Biblical Families! This website isn't for dating, and you're unlikely to find another wife here. This is a place for fellowship, for discussing plural marriage as well as other biblical topics in depth, and for support and encouragement of everyone, single, monogamous, or polygamous. The best place to start is by giving us more of an introduction so we can get to know you better.
Bridgy88, while you might find some advice here, it is probably prudent to be sure you understand that Biblical Families doesn’t participate in matchmaking, and we don’t have “personals” like you might find elsewhere. I read your question to be asking for more practical advice, not for matchmaking services. If so, others may be able to offer that to you. The only thing I can say is to be sure your current marriage is as strong as it possibly can be.
Welcome to the site. We’d love to know a little bit more about you guys and hope you’ll participate in the forums and ladies chat if you can.
Welcome and Shalom.
Hi!
@Bridgy88, if you are looking for practical advice, it would be helpful for you to ask specific questions. What's on your mind?
I am just wanting advice .Like how to bring up the subject to another woman? Will it be awkward .And also whem we find someone should he go out with her first or should we take her out together or what is best?also how do we deal with the inevitable judgement from others who dont understand why we want this?
We are very strong in our relationship together, we just want to add and expand .We have so many questions. We just recently decided as a couple to go plural .He is excited about this as am i. Im the one who brought this subject to him .How do tou deal with the judgement .We live jn a small town .We need support .Where wpuld we even begin looking for another woman to join our lives? I dont even know how to approach the subject with someone .Would a dating site be appropriate? We just really need advice .
Hello. How are you?
So the biggest question I need to ask to give you any kind of advice is, are you both Christian? And then my advice is going to be to pray, lol.
But it's going to be awkward, it's going to be different, it's going to be weird, and you're going to get judged and probably lose friends and/or family over it. And that's reality. It's difficult, but truth.
Honestly, the best place to ask all these questions to other women is the ladies chat. It's 7.30pm eastern on Monday nights. We'd love for you to join us. There's some women in there that very rarely venture onto the forum but have a lot of wise information.

I'm good. And you?
The only advice I have to offer is to forget about it unless/until you can tell that God is specifically directing your husband and you in your relationship with a woman who could join your family. Others will have different perspectives, but that's all I've got.
My only question: Why?
As FollowingHim2 mentioned, most of the advice you’ll receive on this site will presume that you are a follower of Christ. If you are, and your interest and questions are geared toward Biblical Answers, I think you’ve come to the best place online for answers as well as support. If that’s not your “preset”, thats ok. Just be aware that most here will answer from (or attempt to answer from) a Biblical world view.
If yours is a search for Biblical Answers, there’s a lot of that in the archives. It just takes some time to read through.

This is something we have discussed in length .We both want to add to our family and have more children .This feels right to us. We want someone who wr can share our lives with.
Thank you.
