Being required to be friends with a metamour!! Which doesn't sound terrible but her expectations did not align with mine. She expected regular meetings with me and had all kinds of rules, it was exhausting. He wasn't allowed to manage his own relationships.
Never again
That sounds stressful. I imagine you learned a lot from that relationship. I don't enforce friendships with metas. "You don't have to be friends, just friendly"
I heard a friend refer to it as "Garden Party Poly" and I really liked that. Not as many requirements as Kitchen Table, but maybe a hug and share a drink at a backyard party.
