The intense summer romance thing, time together, talk and real openess from day one. She knew I was polyamorous, married and was dating 1 other. She met my wife 1st day we met, by chance, they talked a hour of shared interests. She met my other girl weeks later, we've had dinners together (everyone) a few times.
After about 4 months she wants 'more' and I get that. So I try really hard, everyone has to give time up.. wife, my other girlfriend, kids, even friends (though few friends know why). After 5 days of at my house, her house etc.. she drops by unannounced (to me, wife knew but failed to mention) and gets mad at me that I ignore her, because I have guests (from work) that don't know about poly.
Then jealousy, no communication, hurt feelings all around. Even my wife is annoyed, she felt her gift of time (mine) wasn't appreciated. I felt a failure, so much seemed to be not enough. We haven't recovered and I gave it time.. it appears nothing short of all is enough, but she is not all I would need.
So time to part with one I love.. to keep her from hurting, wanting what I will never give. To protect my other loves from jealousy because she would take what I give them. Things I cannot give to her, parts of she doesn't want.
Would be easier if I didn't care, but I do. Yes, even love. She is not poly enough and I have to let her go.
