My partner and I have been poly for four years and date solo. In that time we've both had both long and short relationships with others.
Whereas my partner presents as more introvert, I'm a big guy with a big personality and lots to say. My partner has always found it easy to spend extended lengths of time with people she's dated, happy to do overnights and mini trips.
I on the other hand, get excited to see partners, but there comes a point in the evening when I hit a wall and just want to go home. It feels like my nervous system is screaming at me to get out and find solitude. I've wondered if it's because I don't like them enough but it's consistent, no matter who I see.
I feel guilty about it because partners like to see more of me and love it when I spend the night. I wish I could and get frustrated with myself when I reach my limits
Wondering if there are others in poly community who experience the same and how you navigate this with partners.
