Does it? I just feel like I’m the other woman and it feels horrible but technically I’m allowed to see other people and idk where are headed but I’m not sure what to do

genuinely hard to believe a poly person didn't mention it immediately

Well yes you are the other woman in this case, but I say that loosely considering the main is also poly. I suspect he already knows the expiration date on that relationship so if you like him like that and if things seem genuine when you guys hang, I dont see a reason to cut it off completely

well he was definitely making a conscious decision to hide it, which you should probably ask him about

I get that it was a surprise, but did he break any promises or agreements?

Like if he was casually hooking up with someone else but wasn’t dating them/wasn’t poly, would that have been a problem?

No, I wouldn’t feel like I was the other woman cause no one has a “title” yk

Yes, we agreed to tell each other about other hookups or if we wanted other partners
