Hi all.
For an agony aunty
I'm occasionally seeing someone who has a long-term partner already and an open relationship, occasionally because he lives very far away. When I stay there he hugs his partner in front of me, but not vice versa. For obvious reasons he puts her first, and I understand that - I can't be his partner, only his lover - but if he doesn't want to hurt her by touching me, why should he think that I will be less hurt? Any similar experiences out there, Any ideas on how to gently raise the issue?
