It was a friend. Our best friend. It was the end of our friendship and relationship. The act itself was fun. Seemed like it could happen again one day. Then my ex friend and ex partner were talking to one another behind my back. Donāt do it with a best friend. Or set boundaries and make sure you stick to them before and after the fun.
Not married but we were together for more than 10 years before we allowed this to happen. So. You just never know.
Phew š®āšØ okay so Iāve been in on/off polyamorous relationship with several thirds with my husband for 8-9 years. I can tell you that it can change things for you and your SO because expectations are different. For us, it become a type of relationship thatās missing something(it sucked so bad). Iāll tell yall one of them. For my husband & I, it was his ex gf in high school who eventually became my best friend after he introduced me to her. This girl (we will call her Andrea) was that third that we went on/off with for 8-9 years and it was brutal and it definitely change the relationship between my husband and I because there wasnāt anyone we know that we can relate to or seek advice from. But in the end, we realize the reason why it never works out with Andrea is because it wasnāt with the right person. My best advice to you if you want a successful one, donāt expect it to work out and donāt expect the relationship to go back to the way it was. Itās nice to explore but itās NOT easy.
Now for the threesomes it was fun but itās hard not to make it into a relationship if itās someone you know. If you donāt want a polyamorous relationship, itās best to set boundaries first and have the fun with someone yall dont really know (protected ofc) or someone whoās not interested in relationships overall.
I havenāt personally but Iāve contemplated it a lot. The one thing that finally put me off is not a lot of people that have shared their experience on this app and on other apps have had positive outcomes. Like others are saying, it definitely will change your relationship and I think you have to be fully confident, committed, and let go of any jealousy. Itās likely not going to work if one of you is a jealous person. I know there are some relationships that do work better that way, but there are so many that are in open relationships to begin with. Thatās the experiences thatās been shared with me. Likely itās easier for open relationships to begin with because itās not that different, itās not new. You have to have a certain level of trust and be willing to accept change. If I was to ever do it in future, Iād definitely not do it with a best friend because that can complicate things even deeper if things donāt work out
@Dionne yes. Itās all about a lot of trust and commitment. No jealousy between the couple otherwise it can get messy.
Threesomes are not for couples. They are for three single people!!!
@Elle I respectfully disagree, itās for anyone.
@Cheska Iām sure the woman who started sobbing when I had a threesome with her and her boyfriend would disagree but ok.
@Cheska If you are polyamorous it can work, but it probably wonāt work for a monogamous relationship.
@Elle Actually no my husband and I are monogamous and went into a polyamorous relationship on/off. Everyoneās experience is different, Iām in a few polyamorous groups and Iāve seen a lot of difference experiences from different couples. For you being the 3rd (often call the unicorn but I donāt like the term) for that couple was unsuccessful but doesnāt mean it wouldnāt be successful for others. I didnāt cry in my first threesome with my husband. It eventually became a relationship between us 3.
@Cheska I think the poster wants to remain monogamous after.
I have 0 experience with this, but thought I would share that 90 day FiancĆ© (the show) has their first āthroupleā - Matt, Amani, and Any. Not sure how much of their relationship is for TV and how much is genuine, but may be of interest to watch and see how they have made it work. On the show Matt and Amani have been married for a while and found someone from another country. They vacation to go see her and eventually want to get her to move with them to the states. Sheās dating both the husband and wife. Just a suggestion š
Thank you everyone for answering!

@Cheska the crazy part is I had threesomes before but it wasn't with my man then it turned into a relationship with the husband & wife but for me I don't like sharing in my own relationship but since I done it before he still will like to try it so idkš„“
