any insight?
currently me n my partner are apart for the next two weeks so i don’t want to start any big conversations without it being face to face, but just wanted an overall/generalised insight just so i can understand a bit before having the conversation
my partner is poly and something they need whilst in a relationship is other sexual partners. neither of us are talking/sleeping with other people rn as we have decided together we want to build the foundation of our relationship before opening it up (i know this comes with conflicting opinions but this is not the point of the post). anyway. i am very new to this and i guess what i am wondering, without sounding ignorant or dismissive, is why someone would want other partners. i am not against it at all i’m just genuinely curious as to reasons behind it, if there is any. i would more so understand if there was a misalignment in our libidos and kinks, as i would get my partner wanting to seek out experiences which satisfy their needs and allows them to experiment with kinks, but this is not the case and is confusing me.
any thoughts? thank you for reading
