well still feels like he is not being honest to me, but not like I am going to stop playing. Just my opinion. My favorite MC is from WVM... so secrets there they all live with him
There are 2 sides to this secret. His side, and the girls side. He's clear about having OTHER girls, and he respects the will of those girls about secret relations.
In your view, unless he discloses to everyone with whom he is with, he's cheating? Does it really matter who he's with or that he is clear about them not being the only one? What they NEED to know, and what they may WANT to know are different things.
He's open and frontal about the fact that there are others. That's the important thing. The second part, the "Who", well, some of them, like Alexia, need to be very hush-hush, not for the other girls but for the possible consequences on Jack's imprisonment. Samantha, also doesn't want it spread, mostly to her family, but also the MC's family, she doesn't really care about the other girls, she already knows about Martha, suspects that there are more, and hasn't objected.
I am sorry, but I think you are projecting a rule that doesn't really apply here. The MC doesn't have a girlfriend, that wants him to "spread" his love. He's doing it by himself, being as respectful and clear has he can. He's been trying to open up, battling the girls reservations about being in a poly relationship that they don't mind to be in, but aren't sure of how it will be received by their families.
So, all this to say, that he isn't cheating, by not telling them who's in the Harem/poly, they ALL know they aren't in a monogamist relation, they have all accepted it. Therefore there's NO cheating, just a respectful obfuscation of details that he's working on fixing. He's not stepping behind anyone, they all know, it is their choice to accept it...
I am aware that this isn't the customary way of doing this, but, at least to me, it makes a LOT of sense so far. There's clearly respect and affection, isn't that the highest possible standard?
Peace
