That was very nicely said.

Have you ever really liked a girl who was going out with a friend of yours? How jealous did you feel? That could help shed light on how poly you could be.

Oh, that's not a concern at all.

I've never been in that exact situation, but I have been in situations where I think I would have felt jealousy if I was likely to in general, and didn't. Jealousy has never really even been an issue for me, even before I knew poly was a thing.

I would be extremely surprised if I ended up having issues with jealousy.

That's certainly a good sign.
