For women in a polygynous marriage, what are some positive aspects of polygyny? Please share only the positive sides. 🌷

Assalamualaikum.

I'm a revert and i got married 7 months ago.

I am a second wife, my husband's first wife found me and offered to marry his husband as his second wife. To cut the story short, my husband is secretly talking to potential 3rd wife now and it hurts me so bad coz I feel like I'm not enough, I'm replaceable and he just married me for the benefit of his children (I teach them everyday every morning, since then I haven't experienced to own my morning.)

Now that he has me (a teacher to his kids) now he wanna find the woman whom he truly loves.

For added context: we all live in the same apartment, I asked him if he can get me my own apartment he said no this is all i can offer for now. For 7 months of living with his first wife in a small apartment, I don't know how it feels to be a WIFE, coz rn i feel like I'm just a housemate. I can't kiss my husband when he comes home, I can't be sweet and hug him kiss him in the kitchen. I feel like everything is restricted. And now he wants 3rd wife. Gosh, what am I doing to myself?
