PunkRockAwesomesauce has told me he wants to get himself into a good mindset about me dating again. He isn't vehemently opposed to the idea and he says he accepts me being poly as an important part of my personality. However, he's never had to experience being with someone who is dating others.
Yeah, he moved in and has now been living with my husband for a little under a year, but that's different. My husband was in the picture when we started dating, and PunkRock says he feels like that was just part of the deal he had to accept when he decided to be with me. It's different when I'm talking about this unknown person.
So, what can I have him read? What conversations should we be having? I feel a little out of my element, because when I started dating previously, my husband didn't have any hesitations and actively encouraged me to find other partners. With PunkRock, he's hesitant and worried, and I want to make sure I go at this with enough space for him to feel cherished and understood.
