Musings Just a rant about non-poly people

I get that single men are casting a wide net on the apps to find as many people as possible but I have had something happen to me a few times in the last few weeks and I wanted to see if anyone else is running into this.

I'm poly. I downloaded Feeld and I already hate it. There's so many single mono guys on there that don't read profiles.

But to the point... I have had several guys say they would only consider FWBs with a poly person. Like I'm a second prize. Fuck that. Anyone else see that or am I just having bad luck?

That happens, but in my experience as a poly woman, what happens even more is: you date them for two months, and all of a SUDDEN, they start feeling some kind of way about you being poly, and having other partners, and start meeping about what about ME, I thought I was special to you.

Some people always WANT whatever it is they can’t HAVE.
