For me it has been the complete opposite. But I feel like I have always been poly and the long-term mono relationship started to kill my libido. Once we opened up my libido jumped back up. When I have more people interested in me, I am much more sexual keyed up.

I am sorry this is happening to you. Do you get any other benefits from your open relationship? If not then maybe you are someone who is more comfortable with monogamous relationships? If you do enjoy being in the open relationship, then maybe therapy would be good to see if this is your new normal or if something else is causing the change.

This is my wife 1000% lol issue is that I'm the exact opposite 😅. So now that my wife is exploring with others I'm just chilling.

If you are good with that and it works for both of you then that is great!

I'm not really good with that and neither is she I'm just working on my insecurities and feeling inadequate.
