I Was Accepted by Their Relationship, But I Never Felt Equal

The first time I met their friends, everyone was warm and welcoming. It felt like I was truly being folded into their world, and I was optimistic about where things could go. But as time went on, I started to notice that despite that initial acceptance, I never really felt like an equal partner. There was always a sense that I was a guest in their established dynamic, not a co-creator of something new. It’s a strange feeling—being included but not fully integrated. I’m curious if others have navigated this in their swinging or poly experiences. Have you ever felt like a 'third' rather than an equal in a couple's dynamic? How did you handle it?
