Ideal outcome, to be able to be honest with my dad and maintain our relationship with him being happy with me so my boyfriend can meet my family the way I get to meet his. He's not poly, so I'm the only partner he's introducing to family.

Additional info, I'm a really anxious person, so I could be overthinking the entire thing, but my dad is typically super laid back, and I've never seen him be reactionary or overly emotional in either way, positive or negative.

Yeah. I'm not super familiar with the dynamics and I think it's very relationship specific.

It's hard. And it's, it's hard to know without literally being able to ask like, Hey, you know, what is the end game? Is this the end game for you? You stay with your husband forever and you both just have additional partners. Like, is that, is that end game?
