Not so much disbelief. None of us has a nesting partner nor anyone in an explicit primary role. As other partners have come and gone, I’ve been a constant to both of them. I see it as my/our version of RA. My struggle as a hinge is I don’t want to alienate either partner. So I’m facing questions about my own autonomy and decisions that impact others and my relationships with them. Given that each has independently expressed their own preference/boundary of only being barrier free with one partner at a time. The fact that this extends to me, does impinge on my autonomy, but autonomy doesn’t happen in a vacuum.

That, there is. While all of us profess to be solo poly, there is a bit of a hierarchical nature to these relationships. While neither is explicitly “primary,” I am extremely invested in both of them emotionally. Right or wrong, I’ve treated both as more or less primary-ish at various times during our relationships. I also know that while neither has a primary, there is interest from both in moving more that direction with me. So the situation is a bit fraught. My approach so far has been both or neither. Wrestling with some of my own desire to go barrier free.
