@bitpixi this sounds like a bad scene. it feels like they're not really pulling their weight in this, which is honestly a more fundamental problem.

@bitpixi i get not being comfy about a partner flirting with others, it can hit that triggering jealousy spot & you can do okay without it (like, you can communicate openly, be happy someone is having a good time with others & still not like hearing details).

@bitpixi but the problems here seem not related to poly stuff, but to this partner just wanting convenience/the old status quo/not putting energy into actively maintaining the relationship. when you're in that dynamic, you talking to new people really is genuinely threatening!
