Today, I bring you a saga.

Starring a bunch of college students, a manipulative pua op subtly codenames "serpent", a young man's extremely optimistic threesome goals, long distance relationships, the perfect waifu competition, trust issues, anxiety, panic attacks, and plenty of betrayal.

At least the commenters were sympathetic.

So wait.
The guy openly tells her that he's into polyamory because he has a fantasy about fucking two lesbians.
And she's shocked and appalled when he treats her like a figure in his fantasy.

Imagine being so emotionally dense that you can’t see when a relationship is a bad idea.

Sounds like he fell in love with the first and only woman he's ever been with, and is afraid he wouldn't be able to find anyone else. And because said woman is a complete whore he'd rather just accept the certainty of getting cucked and formalize it rather than have to worry about it. With how long they've been together in his mind it's probably easier to maintain a relationship where he just gets cucked all the time with some pity sex getting thrown his way every now and then, since the other option is returning to inceldom a good 12 years behind the curve. Most men in an open relationship this one-sided are probably in the same situation.

is it even worth it at that point?
personally i'd pick inceldom over the kind of turbocuckoldry that this guy is subject to tbh

Clearly he seems to think so. It's a choice between a megacucked but familiar status quo or a lonely unknown and the fear of that unknown is enough to make him stay. It probably works like an emotionally abusive relationship to some extent if it isn't one outright.

I’m pretty sure you just summarised Jackson’s role in the ArchivistBex thread.

It's funny because so much of the advice in that thread is so deep and introspective when the problem and solution is actually very simple.
Like the guy who insists OP psychoanalyse himself and decide what he wants from her and the relationship. Like it's not obvious already. He's unhappy with her fucking other guys, but his self-esteem is too low for him to stand up to her.
The only real solution is for OP to dump his whore and drive off into the sunset, shaking his head ruefully at the years he's wasted on a cumslut. But he won't do that, because he's a cuck.

I was having a talk with a mate over some wine last night. We get together every year just before Christmas Eve to talk about the last year and what's been going on.

We got to talking about my ex and how he wanted to "be poly" but I didn't so I left him. Something my mate touched on, which I got me thinking is this: People who are poly are scared to be alone or single. They always need to have the next person lined up or as a fallback in case they, God forbid, end up single.

I can only speak for the Poly people I know but I do think this holds some truth. I'm happier now than I;ve ever been, I have a tremendous amount of freedom (and I am not saying this is the case if you're in a relationship just that for me, right now, I have a really good life) and I'm having a lot of fun figuring out what I want and where I'm headed.

Poly people never want to go through that.They are too scared to do so. It's pathetic

It would definitely make sense for them to be extremely co-dependent people who are constantly shifting blame onto others.

What in the world made her believe that she would be a competent mother. It sounds to me like one of those poor children who’s always being taken care of by her grandparents while her emotionally immature mother fucks around and neglects her own child.
