Polyamory isn’t for me tbh. I’m generally not a jealous type, but I draw the line at another man being intimate with my wife.
I find it difficult to understand how people in such relationships manage jealousy, insecurities etc. Must take a very mentally strong person.

i've been poly for a long time, and it is a learning process. with one partner, I started off feeling *intense*, almost sickening jealousy when he was with other women, but over the course of 4-6 months it weakened until it completely went away.

Sort of neither? I've had other relationships that felt like I did a bit of the above, but with the one I'm describing, it was mostly like... my hindbrain slowly realized that actually him having sex with other people *didn't* mean he was gonna leave me.

After the zillionth time of him coming back from banging a girl, coming back *to me*, my body sort of just realized "oh actually this is not a threat to our relationship" and chilled out.

How do you manage sexual health? That’s something, relationship logistics aside, that would be a concern for me.

Usually polycules negotiate this on a case-by-case basis, but there's definitely a lot of discussion and a lot of testing in situations where there's lots of extra-polycule fucking.
