know

You seem self-aware, not scattered, so it’s really just a matter of how much you say to whom, and when.

Since you’re not physically involved, I don’t think you owe anyone an explanatio­n yet, but your conscience has to make that call. Even there, though, you seem clear: “I don’t want to bring it up ... till we have a conversati­on about exclusivit y.” OK. Nothing wrong with that.

When one of them makes a clear push for more, then you say something to him. And if that results in your getting serious with someone, then you drop the round-robin altogether.
