Poly in monogamous relationship
Post Body

I am poly and have been in several poly relationships in the past. I am right now with my boyfriend who I've been with for about 6 months. I took a break from dating for a bit and this is the first long term relationship I've havd in a while. He is VERY monogamous to the point he doesn't really see other people as attractive nvm be able to love multiple people. We have talked about our boundaries and I would NEVER do anything to break his trust. The problem is I keep finding my self being romantically attracted to other people and although I don't act on these feelings I feel guilty and shameful. Will this become an compatibility issue down the line? Should I find someone looking the same things? Is there anyway to stop feeling this way with out cutting the people I care for out of my life completely? I really care about my boyfriend and he has made me a better person but this has been a issue I've faced from the beginning I really don't want to hurt/loose him.

Edit: poly is not the correct term but I lack any other descriptive language to describe being emotionally connected to or in love with multiple people at once.
