Would you mind going into a little more detail on your delievery?
So you don't tell them verbatim "I WILL BE NO WOMAN'S ONLY MALE LOVER!" but rather in your first meeting with a new woman you make it a point to mention you will be with some other woman that day/at some point so she understands your basically a guy who sees MANY women?
Actually, I normally explain immediately upon meeting a women and getting to a place where there's a realistic chance that she'd like to hook up with me (5-10 mins into our introductory conversation, normally) I explain that I'm not the "marrying kind"... then I mention, I'm not really the "boyfriend-kind" either... and in fact, I'm not really the "dating kind"...
I frame the entire thing as one would describe someone's auditioning for a role in a feature film, where SHE is the casting-director, and I'm not merely 'some guy' who's there to audition, but rather I'm a multi-Oscar winning 'A list' actor,
WAY beyond 'auditioning' for anyone.
I explain that I'm not interested in being the 'male lead' in
any woman's life story, but rather I'm looking for women who'd like to be a recurring character in
MY life story.
I explain that traditional 'dating' is basically where a man 'auditions' for that role, pretending to be what he imagines she has in mind for the part - and hopes he'll be selected for call-back auditions, where he'll again be tasked with proving himself to be as he presented himself to be... Bah, humbug - that's for those other schmucks who can't get a decent role!
I AM the man I am, I make no excuses for anything, and I am damned proud to be me, and so far as I'm concerned, SHE is very fortunate that I'm even interested enough in her to CONSIDER having her as a
supporting character in MY LIFE STORY, which happens to be a HUGE MEGA-HIT.
What she must understand is that I'm NOT auditioning for the role of 'leading woman' in my life story - but rather I'm prepared to offer her a chance for us both to include each other as 'recurring characters' in our own stories.
That's when I explain that for ALL women in my life, even my primary 'leading lady' - the same two-rules exist, to ensure that there is no unnecessary complication on either side.
Rule 1, I explain, is that ALL my 'girlfriends' MUST have other 'male counterparts' in their own stories (sometimes I say 'I won't be any woman's sole supplier of ****' - which goes over very well!) because there WILL be other intermittent 'love interests' as time goes on.

I'm also guessing the second rule isn't stated exactly verbatim.. but rather strongly implied and brought up any time she shows cattiness?
Nope, I make that one clear right up-front also; I explain that there will be NO CATTINESS permitted, as it takes away from the focus of the story, and makes each of the characters into victims, which is a lousy way to be viewed, much less view yourself!
SO I explain that RULE 2 is at least AS CRITICAL as Rule 1, and that while there might be brief intervals where Rule 1 might be overlooked, Rule 2 has a Zero Tolerance policy.
