Anyways, the reason I say it doesn't require EIQ or self-awareness or any of that - there's a solid sub-type of poly people who are autistic. We're poly because of not understanding people limiting themselves to one person if they are interested in more than one. We don't have nearly as strong of societal influences partially because of our particular manifestations of being autistic (not wanting to rebel, but truly not understanding in the first place). These relationships definitely can work.


Fair enough - my apologies, I see now that my comments were somewhat blinkered.

What if he shared you though? :lol:


lol! I don't think he is the jealous type at all. But I don't want anyone else.

Why are you embarassed to admit that?


Jealousy isn't good, imo. For me, it's just the result of all of my insecurities.


Well, unfounded or out of control jealousy, sure. But the jealousy you'd feel if you actually had to share him, I think that's perfectly normal and nothing to be embarrassed about.
