Do you think there are certain personality traits that lend themselves more to polyamory?
I have been on OKC lately and I am feeling really weird about it. I like sending the first message and don’t really obsess or even think about it after I do. But as soon as the other person replies and we start chatting, I suddenly get super nervous and worry about whether they like me or not. What’s up with that? I have two awesome partners who love me — why do I care what these strangers think?
It occurred to me that I shouldn’t be like this if I am going to be on a dating site — what is the point of seeking another partner if the process makes me so fluttery and insecure? Do other poly people do this or are they more chill?
