You’re stronger than me girl I would’ve lost my shit. Regardless as you said it isn’t your partner’s fault that the men you come across are shitty. At the end of the day if you’re wanting to keep the open relationship then you may have to try and appreciate the fact that your partner is kind enough to draw people back to him and, from the perspective of his other relationships, isn’t the kind of man that you have been having the misfortune of coming across.

As a poly person. I felt this and we sat down and talked about it for awhile. He fully agreed to back off and hit pause if I wanted to. We also started new thing of when I get one he gets one. None of us will ever had more than the other. It makes it feel more even

just cut the open part. if he’s making friends then he can keep them. you can shift your focus of new relationships to platonic and just not worry about more than that period

Over all from your comment it sounds like you aren’t enjoying the open relationship to begin with and that there is some jealousy or feeling undervalued there.
