So, I have been dating this person for about a month and a half now. We live across country from each other and I am taking the leap to fly out to meet him and his girlfriend. We are both poly and both have primary partners. I will be meeting both him and his primary at the same time. I am not sure how much alone time we will have together and I am just so happy to finally have a chance to meet in person.
I am really very nervous as I have always have had a mono-poly relationship. Just recently, within the past year have we opened up.(primary and I) And I have dated mostly mono people who knew I was poly, and were okay with that.
I've made it a point to spend as much time this week with my primary as possible, making sure he knows I love him. Going out on dates and just spending time. (And bug him because I can!) Because this is the first trip we are not taking together!
So anyway, I am nervous as EVERYTHING about this is so new. We relate to each other very well. We have very similar values and relationship beliefs and such. (I don't actually know what to call that!) I've never flown out before, and I have never dated another poly person outside of my primary. So, any advice (or encouragement ) would be great!
I am just a ball of anxious nerves right now. My trip is on Friday!
And sorry about this jumbled mess of a post!
