The fear of losing a partner when opening a relationship just happened to me. We opened up, she found someone she really likes. The other day told me she wants to be monogamous. She is in love with her other partner, and she doesn’t love me anymore

I know she’s probably just feeling strong NRE, and it’ll eventually normalize, but she’s caught up in it right now. She also talks to her friends about our whole open relationship situation, and I’m sure she’s getting negative polyphobic advice. She never really did the research and work to know what to expect when opening up

I knew this was a possibility. Not going to blame poly on it. It just is what it is. Just breaks my heart, and I have no one to talk to. I can’t tell my family what really happened, and the few friends I have wouldn’t understand. I have my paramour, but I don’t want to put too much stress or sadness on her. I’m just feeling so sad, empty, and broken hearted over this

So now I’m flying solo! Yay…
