Does G know the extent of your relationship with S? If yes, then NTA, otherwise maybe. Either way I don't like you

I don’t think yta but like #1 is saying you need to have a convo with G abt what he wants in the relationship and what you want. It’s hard to be with someone who’s insecure and obvi want to fix that and considering his monogamous there may be some conflict just in how you both are viewing the relationship or if he thinks you like one more than the other (idk much abt poly relationships j feels like sm that might happen idk)

I’ve been seeing S for about three years now and knew him two years prior to that. He helped me out of an abusive relationship by being a supportive light in my life. Me and him are poly. Started dating G a bit over a year ago, and he is monogamous. HE KNEW ABOUT S GOING INTO THE RELATIONSHIP!! G has now started staying with me full-time, and I visit S 1-4 times a month. On the times I do get to see S, G will text me a lot asking what we’re doing and things like that.

Polyamory is asking for an Open relationship. I never understood the concept of one because it’s essentially asking “Hey, can we cheat on each other but still love each other one on one” with consent. That doesn’t make sense. If you don’t want to be the person you ask to have a polyamorous relationship with, just don’t be with them. I just fail to understand the concept, no hate to anyone.

nta, I think you should have a sit-down conversation with G about what he wants long-term and why he got with you knowing you're poly and have another partner while being monogamous himself. I don't know you or S or G, but G lowkey sounds kinda manipulative and like he might be trying to change who you are. then again, I hate men and always see the worst in them, so take that with a grain of salt

Today, G called me THREE TIMES during my night with S, saying he was just worried, but didn’t bother to text me first (he knows I hate calling without warning). I feel frustrated and I came home to him being grumpy again.

Everyone knew all information before going into this, yes. Could you elaborate on not liking me and if it’s personal preference or if I’m being a shitty person

I don't really like polyamory. Don't have a great reason, just opposed. You also don't sound like a great person if I'm being honest. The whole thing about being grumpy because of your boyfriend's discomfort kinda just paints you in a bad light in my eyes. I have some issues stemming from past relationships, so I kinda just dislike anyone who gets upset over their partner's boundaries. I don't know all the details and I don't know you so maybe I'm wrong, but thats the vibe I got.

I can entirely see that. I was frustrated when I made the post but G hasn’t set any boundaries in regards to me seeing S. I know he isn’t the happiest about it but maybe a more in-depth conversation is in order, even if it will be uncomfortable. You’re right, I was selfish last night, and I’m grateful that you called me out on it so I have a chance to make better choices moving forward.

Good on you for being able yo reflect and learn from your actions, many people can't take accountability like that. A conversation on boundaries is definitely a good idea, especially if you want this relationship to last

Hmmmm it’s almost like they posted about it online. Your comment is invalid. Also, calling them weird isn’t being hateful when they are asking for opinion.

they're asking for an opinion about a specific situation, not who they are. and irregardless of if it's online or not you should be capable of having basic manners

And again, my opinion on the specific situation is that they are weird. Nothing about it is hateful. People can hear that and be okay, grow up.

would like to point out that I called #4 hateful, not you. I called you weird for insulting op. and yeah, people can hear that and be okay, or they could be having a shit time of their life and your unnecessary insult could be the straw that breaks the camel's back. it's not that hard to keep harsh words to yourself, especially when you can see a bunch of other people were already being rude to op

poly relationships can have mutual respect as well, and is actually also in humanity's history so it is quite human. to be such an asshole just because someone has different preferences from you is super weird, why do you care so much about what someone else does?
