I began a relationship with a poly man about a year ago not intending it to become too serious. He is married and had another girlfriend. We have fallen in love and he is now in the process of getting divorced and wants to be together full time. He wants to keep the other girlfriend but not have her live with us.
I understand his need for more than one relationship but I have always been mono and am trying to adapt. My biggest problem is jealously. I feel so hurt when he goes to see her. I know he loves me but my emotions keep getting the best of me.
He says he cares deeply for her but only loves me as the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with.
Will it get easier once we live together and I can spend more time with him?
How do I cope with the jealousy and hurt?
