From context, I figure you're talking relationship, not shagging. Never had one myself, but one of my dearest friends was in a long-term one with two young ladies from MIT. For that matter, my older sister is in one...as is my dear friend Sara, who's like a sister...suddenly I feel deprived.
In assessment, I'd say the only reason the initial relationship example it lasted was he was here in Chicago, and they were the "2" in Boston. Thus visits either way or in any numerical configuration were sort of a novelty, and the threesome-ness really only a virtual state - barring sexual escapades. As soon as they were a spatially unified, things collapsed like a flan in a cupboard.
However, to your point about "special two" relationships: yes, profound person-to-person pairings perculate, even in triumverates. That's exactly the problem:
A and B share something - a bond of interest, affection or passion - hence C feels left out. In a seperate context, C and B share some sort of bond, and A feels ditched/deprived, etc.
So there's the potential for a sort of rolling discontent, except in situations where all three+ people share an interest. [which seems to rarely happen outside the bedroom.] |
