I’ve found myself in a bit of a situation and I was hoping for a bit of advice. It may be obvious, but as I’ve never experienced this before I’m not sure what to expect or what do to.

I met someone on a dating app and we talked a bit, but not much until recently. He is monogamous as am I. Shortly after matching with him I also matched with someone but I didn’t pay attention to their dating style and turns out he is in an ENM relationship and he even made sure I knew that before we continued talking. I didn’t know anything about it and was immediately not into it although I was interested in being friends.

Some flirting has happened and we plan to meet (he’s new to this style of dating). The problem is 1) I don’t want to fumble the other guy just because I’m curious about this guy. 2) I want to experience new things and right now I’m not fully sure if I want to be in a relationship.

I’m not sure what to do or if what I’m doing is wrong? Is it okay to experience this to see if it’s something I’d be into? I’m also afraid that this would be temporary and the other guy may move on. I don’t expect anyone to wait for me, but I guess I’m just not sure what to do or how to move forward.
