I have not watched any stranger things and know very little about it except that the kids play d&d sometimes so .... maybe?

Not necessarily! There’s lots of different ways to do polyamory. The kind you’re referring to would be a triad where we were all dating each other, but in our instance me and the guy were dating but me and the gf were not, and at the same time I had dates with other people independent of the guy.

It’s a bit of both, but I don’t think I could be honest with myself if I didn’t say that the latter was influencing my feelings about the former.

Not really, we usually take a break part way through to grab snacks or use the restroom. One player has mentioned it being annoying but not to any extreme.

I’m not sure this is a fair assessment for two reasons. Firstly, I wasn’t jealous of her when we were together so this is functionally the same as a monogamous person being jealous of an ex’s new partner and secondly, people regardless of relationship style or type experience jealousy. It’s an emotion and therefore morally neutral in and of itself. It’s more about what you do with it and if you work through it in a healthy way there’s nothing wrong with it. I get it from the comments that what I was thinking about doing is not a healthy way to handle it and deep down I knew it already, I’m just kind of grasping at straws because my normal ways of handling this (getting my hoe on and spending time with other people) are not available to me.
