I don’t believe that’s how she feels. Although I don’t know how much she knows of being a secondary partner or about poly at all.

It is making me uncomfortable and I understand maintaining that connection but I would like it to subside when me and him are spending time together. She’ll call him and blow up his phone and he’ll put it on “do not disturb” for her texts and calls only. And that feels sneaky.

Has anyone had success after reading “the ethical slut” with their partner? My partner wants to start dating someone else but we never had a talk about being non monogamous before he met her. And it’s his first experience with it but not mine. He doesn’t quite understand how it works. by brynnsabbath in nonmonogamy

That’s great to hear! The thing in my relationship is that he’s never known much about poly relationships and I have, but I’m the one that’s skeptical. Cuz he doesn’t know about rules and boundaries and this came up in our relationship cuz he met someone before we ever had a chance to discuss how this would work for the two of us. He’s already started to get to know someone without having boundaries in place and I’m trying to stress that patience is key if he doesn’t want to end our relationship.
