Question about polysexual/polyromantic (no hate intended)?

Hi! So I'm dating this girl, she's polysexual, and I'm polysexual. I'm also interested in this other girl which isn't poly, so how would that work? Would it just work out as me dating both of them while the other two just date me? Or would it not work out at all? 

No hate intended, if you got offended by this is any way I'm so sorry. I'm only trying to figure out how this works since I recently found out I'm poly :)

Update:

Aaaaaaa, sorry guys. I meant polyamorous, thank you for pointing that out. I should’ve done a bit more research before posting this ;-;

    You are getting terms mixed up here. Polysexual means attraction to many but not all genders. The term you are looking for is polyamorous which means you want an intimate relationship with more than one person. 

    "Would it just work out as me dating both of them while the other two just date me? Or would it not work out at all?"

    This is something yall need to talk about. I'm not polyamorous but I doubt there is 1 way to do it. Talk with them and see what they are comfortable with. I kinda doubt this other person you are interested will be ok with you dating 2 people but that's up to her to decide.

    You are both not ‘polysexual’ , that is a made up nonsense term that means nothing. If I understand your made up phrase correctly you are saying that you are both bisexual. Stop trying to make up words for things that the English language already has covered, all that you are doing is making yourself look like a stupid prat.
