Any ā€œsecondariesā€ with no NP get some sort of allowance? My current BF pursued me (knowing Iā€™m mono) recently.

He and his wife (also a friend of mine) opened their marriage a few years ago due to her realization that sheā€™s lesbian.

Theyā€™re highly entangled with kids, finances (heā€™s extremely well off) and properties. His wife also now has a wife (commitment ceremony) and she spends the bulk of her time with her.

He pursued me (knowing Iā€™m mono) and once we discussed everything he mentioned heā€™s looking for his life partner. He also states he only has emotional bandwith for one intense relationship.

Itā€™s been going great, amazing actually. NRE is going strong. I discussed with him one of the benefits of a life partner is sharing responsibility (Chores/finances/etc).

Since heā€™ll never be at my house full time (he essentially coparents with his wife at their farm and they rotate out to spend time with their respective people, this will be a sacrifice I make. I queried if thereā€™s any way this could be remedied.

He mentioned the possibility of some sort of allowance to make thing: more equitable.

Has anyone been in this situation?

ETA: he said heā€™ll need to speak with his wife and poly therapist about this. Itā€™s nothing Iā€™m wanting or expecting now as our relationship is new (3 mos) but itā€™s something I had to address to get some semblance of what a future between us would look like.
