giving one person 100% of my affection and getting 100% of theirs feels great

I would feel devastated if my partner was with someone else. I’m just not built for it

I’m very monogamous, but tried polyamory because my ex wanted to. Bad idea, that’s just not how my brain is wired. I didn’t feel like myself and seeing my partner with other people ultimately just made me sad and angry, despite pouring effort into being okay with it. My partner felt limited by monogamy, but I felt limited by polyamory. I want a partnership where each person can give their full love and attention to the other.

I prefer it because my mom always made me compete for her love against my siblings and I haven’t been in a polyamorous situation that didn’t mirror my own relationship with my mother where I’m constantly competing for their love

I don't really identify as monogamous or polyamorous but I do know I don't have enough of an attention span to have a fair dynamic with more than one person, a lot of "oh I thought I told you that" and forgetting to reply even if I was really interested. It's better that I am in a monogamous relationship.
