For the last six months or so I had been in a relationship with a man that pushed many of my boundaries. One of which was being in a poly relationship. I have never wanted to be in a poly relationship, I am a monogamous person. But I enjoyed his company and I was willing to try it.
What I have learned from that experience is that I do not care to be in a poly relationship. I do not think it is fair or right for someone else to manipulate my time with my partner. While this may not always happen when people are in poly relationships, if people cannot set their jealousy aside and respect if not the other person in the party but their partner’s wants then it can never work.
So I am sure in my believe that I do not want to share my partner. I want him to be with me, and me alone. And the only thing that drags his attention and time away from me is work, family and friends.
Now I am back to being single and trying to find the right person for me.
