So I have been in talks with my partner for a couple weeks now about exploring non-monogamy. She was freaked out at first, but has since said that she is willing to try it and just needs time to be ready.
I have told her there is someone that I am interested in, but she isn’t comfortable with me seeing her due to a few reasons. This person is getting ready to move in a couple months so the relationship wouldn’t last too terribly long. I have this fear inside me that my partner is just running out the clock. Waiting for my crush to move and hoping that these feelings of wanting non-monogamy will go away. She has said a couple times that is not the case. Why can’t I get these thoughts out of my head though? Am I being pessimistic, or irrational? I feel like I am.
Your partner is the wiser of the two of you.
You should take your time. You are talking about changing your whole relationship. That’s not something you rush into because you want to get down and dirty with a specific person before they move. It’s something you do because you both want this new structure, and you do it by talking through all aspects of it before even contemplating getting frisky with someone else.
