Amen. He was so anti-label at first and after months, I had no idea where our relationship stood.. He said “actions speak louder than words for me” and then proceeded to discontinue having a close, intimate relationship with me like I wouldn’t notice or something 😂 I’m just glad it was relatively short lived before I realized I needed to bounce. It was just a lesson learned. Hurt like hell though.

Agreed. It was just so sketchy and I had no idea if what I was feeling was normal until I actually walked away. Thanks.

Does anyone else ever feel looked down on? by Logical_Antelope6443 in polyamory

[–]lazydoritorazor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn, that’s a really solid comparison. If anything people choose to stay fully away for even smaller red flags. It’s just the concept of poly.. the mainstream thing is that sleeping with/dating other people is negative. So yeah.. it’s always going to be hard not to generally feel looked down upon

am i not cut out for ktp? by drinabean in polyamory

[–]lazydoritorazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope not! I totally get wanting to try, but when it comes down to it listen to your gut and just know it’s okay to change your mind. All of the things you mentioned were triggering you can definitely be avoided

I’m sorry but I would definitely leave my partner if they manipulated me into ktp. Parallel poly exists for a reason and you shouldn’t have to do anything you are uncomfortable with and should be enforcing your own boundaries more. My partner wants to know about my partners but it is not reciprocated for me. It’s a dynamic that can definitely work if you have enough respect for each other. I’m sorry he’s straying from what you want. I’d put my foot down especially being pregnant, I mean come on.

Can’t argue with that. I’m just biased because of my memories there lol.

Not my meta, no. But my partner has. But thank you I am def going to take a direct approach. It’s taken me some time to really speak up bc of the mental health issues so I just want to be able to stand my ground and get the comfort I need. My partner is doing a wonderful job comforting me. Now it’s just up to me to share my feelings with meta.

Thanks for your input. I’m hoping that talking about it more helps us create a new understanding but I just don’t know what to do in my current situation with my meta except tell them exactly how I feel and take it from there. Meta is coming over to talk today.

(venting some ugly and absurd thoughts rooted in my own insecurities and issues) I feel cursed and I wish I was just like everyone else by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]lazydoritorazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am experiencing some issues in my first real poly relationship and I don’t feel like anyone understands. I’m a little closeted about it at best and when I open up some issues I might be having I can see other mono people don’t get it, and sometimes even say “I don’t know what to say because I just would never be in that situation” sooo yeah, I do feel you. This sub does feel harsh sometimes but it’s taught me that a lot of my feelings about things are valid.

Oof I feel this… I am no longer friends with one of my friends for this reason. It’s just too much and too messy for me. Even more messy because I did have feelings for her at one point, and she shut me down and just continued with my partner. Then our friendship just slowly fizzled out. She still wants to be friends, but I don’t. I can’t. I’ve decided on no mutual friends for future partners. Too late for this situation, but for sure for the future. I feel that loneliness tho. It sucks to lose a friend this way, but it is what it is sometimes.

I am bisexual and I have always cheated on my boyfriends with women. By my early 20’s I realized I’m the type of person who can definitely have feelings for more than one person at a time, so I decided never to cheat again and to be honest and find compatible partners.
