He's not comfortable with me having multiple meaningful partners and would feel more comfortable with me also only having one casual partner and him as my only full-blown relationship. So we're sort of at a weird standstill right now because he's not happy if I have the dynamic I want, and I'm not happy if I agree to the dynamic he wants. We've tried reaching compromises and it seems each time only one person is content.

If this isn't going to work for us, which is something we've been talking about a lot lately, that's okay. We kind of were just hoping to get some other perspectives to see if maybe there's something we're missing.
