    Can you all really not acknowledge other people’s hotness to your partner? As long as you don’t try fucking them what’s the issue? If they don’t trust you why even be together?

      There’s a few strands of toxic monogamy that are pretty common. Really jealous, controlling, and with poor emotional regulation.

      I’m lucky my current partner is very chill about these things. I’m still good friends with two previous partners and it’s never been an issue. We’ve all hung out together.

        Some people even want their partners to get jealous and controlling and think they don’t really love them if they don’t.
