This really came out of nowhere, she was written as monogamous for most of the game, and suddenly after final romance scene she is poly.
If you reject Halsin he should not try to butt in the relationship, maybe romance triggers are bugged.
For me the Halsin romance option triggered before her final romance scene, so she was actually fine with me sleeping with Halsin before my first time with her. However, she's not okay with the drow twins before your first time together. Which also makes little sense, but the whole situation doesn't make much sense. In fact, it makes the writing all the more cringe too. She says something about cobwebbed loincloths if you aren't interested in Halsin.. lady, you've not even slept with us yet and you've traveled with us for so long and are in love with us. Which is wholesome, but also incredibly contradictory.

In my first playthrough, Tav didn't cheat on her, didn't enter relationship with Halsin ( he was always left in camp), didn't visit drow twins, and relationship was 100% monogamous.
If Tav don't cheat on her, she won't either, and she won't mention poly, i think Shadowheart (and Astarion) poly was included only because Halsin is poly (so he can be with somebody else beside Tav).
It's only the case if you bring Halsin along with you, aye, which is why I also didn't know of it until this thread. I did not bring Halsin along in my playthroughs.
But it is a problem for those that do bring Halsin along, and just a consistency issue.
