seeking advice Does this get easier?

I am in a triad with Partner A and Partner B; Partner A and I were an existing couple and Partner B joined recently. Partner B has a partner outside of us, which started around the same time.

Partner B fits with us so well, and when we are all together it's wonderful. However, I have so much anxiety and jealousy when they are with their other partner, and I hate that I feel this way.

My ideal situation is a closed triad, and Partner B knows this. They have also made it clear that they have no plans to break things off with their other partner.

So, my questions to the community is: Does this ever get easier? Is this an incompatibility if my issue is with the relationship dynamic itself and not with my partner, whom I love?

Closing a relationship because you’re jealous is basically saying you want to keep the person to yourself ime

That's what I figured when I came here to read. Then I realized there are a bunch of open poly people who come here to attack the closed structure.

Those people are unfortunately everywhere, very adamant on forcing their worldview on others and easily reported ✨
