Almost constantly!!
1st girlfriend was married to a new friend of mine and they already had a kid together but, she cheated on him with me claiming that he beats her and was going to divorce him, anyway, otherwise, I would've never gotten involved with her! After a few months together, he found out and she went back to him. A few years later, they got divorced, anyway and she married their best friend. I THINK they're still together but, she doesn't think much of him and, apparently, still has the hots for me!! Last time we talked, it ended with her French kissing me passionately!!
2nd girlfriend had JUST gotten married to my guitarist and both were my best friends. About 3 weeks later, they both got into a terrible argument that caused him to leave her!! A week later, she accidentally broke her foot and wanted me to stay with her to help her get around until the cast came off. After about two weeks of that, she started fucking me!! What I didn't know was that she was on some meds for her nervous breakdowns but hadn't taken any in over a month so, she was actually HAVING another breakdown!! About a week later, she completely flipped out and ended up in a psych hospital for the next 7 months but, by the time she got out, she went back to him!
About a year later, she left him and came back to me! Then, she left me and went back to him! 8 years later, she saw me again at a wedding where my band was playing, she was part of the wedding party. Although I said nothing to her while she was there, next thing I know, I get a love letter from her saying we have "unfinished business" to take care of!! By this time, I was already engaged to girlfriend 3! I wasn't ABOUT to throw THAT away!! girlfriend 3 found the letter and read it and, after some discussion, decided we and her should be friends. We went that route for a while and, ever since, we'd BEEN friends except that, every time she has another breakdown I become her hubby (in her mind!). Her real hubby suddenly died one evening and she took up with a close friend of his that looked almost exactly like John! His name was, Don! They were talking about getting married. After a number of years living together (but no sex, from what she told me), she kicked him out shortly after she started getting interested in me, AGAIN!! (This was 15 years after Madame Ex (girlfriend 3) and I split up.) So, we got back together for a few weeks. Then she broke it off with me, no reason why. Then she got REALLY pissed at me for not giving her 50 cents to feed a STRAY CAT!! She's flat broke and I'm living on what I can find every night at the drive through windows at the mall!! I'm not ABOUT to give up what little I have to feed a fucking stray cat!! She called me all sorts of names and I stopped talking to her!! Now, she's very pissed at me and won't talk to me at all!! No great loss, really but, I thought our friendship of 28 years meant a LOT more to her than 50 cents!!
girlfriend 3 was still married when we met although she didn't consider herself married because he got a sex change. But, he still lived with her! As long as he wasn't an asshole, which he never was, I had no problem with him being there. He lived on the 3rd floor, we lived on the 2nd.
After 10 years together, I caught her cheating on me with another guy she planned to marry!! So, I broke it off with her. We still talked on rare occasions and she told me that she left HIM a year later!! Another couple years later, I looked up "our" niece on FB because I hadn't seen her since she was 9 or 11 and she was 18, now. She went from being a gawky skinny little girl to an absolutely GORGEOUS woman!! I told her how pretty she was, she told her aunt (my ex) and SHE accused me of trying to get into "my" niece's pants!!! So, I haven't talked to that mini-bitch since then! Her ex hubby died a few years later. He smoked himself to death!!

Kind of because when I was in middle school I really liked this boy who we'll A and he was also one of my best friends and little did I know he liked me too, but at the time I didn't know that one of my other guy friends that I wasn't interested in in that way liked me and we'll call him Z anyway fast forward to my freshman year of high school Z, the guy I didn't like in that way told me he liked me and I said I didn't like him in that way and I'd rather just stick to being friends anyway fast forward again to the summer before my first year of college and the boy that I did have feelings for A told me he liked me and asked me to be his girlfriend and we've been together for almost a year now

Sigh. No. I’d love to be in one though. It makes me sad I haven’t 😂😂😂

razelove · Answer

Several times, basically it's the end of every three way relationship I've had except 3, two where the other girl had to move, and another where I just had enough and broke it off. Every other one came down to jealousy and an ultimatum.
I made it really easy, everyone knew about and met everyone else before I'd have sex with them, and I told them before hand too, that we'd try to work through jealousy, we can talk about anything, but the person to push an ultimatum would be the one to leave.
Still, whether it's after a week, or a couple months, women would ask me to leave my girlfriend, wife, what have you and drop the ultimatum, her or me. Then their ass isn't being seen again.
If it's a situation you're going to be in more than once, you need to have impartial rules for it.

Genie23 · Answer

Yes... Hell, I was in even a square one once... lol. (Group of friends spending lot if time together) But, I just liked one of them. I was not really in love.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

There was a white guy that might have shown interest in me and a girl that liked him was targeting me for attacks. I did not initiate things with the guy.

Summeroflove · Answer

Oh no. And no thanks…. If someone’s into me they’ll choose me. If not I just move on. That’s not even worth it.

Curious_teen07 · Answer

I was sort of dating one guy, but i liked his friend more (he was the kind, hot book-typa-guy) but before i started dating, i noticed that he turned turned every girl and was only friends with girls so i said yes to his friend. A few months later, the book guy asked my friend to ask me if i liked him. I was dying to say yes but i didn't want to seem weird and jumpy from one boy to another so i said no, and then we started hanging out and he looked soo much better and i regret saying no even now. The guy i was sorta dating left me because i wasn't like 'other adventurous girls' and wasn't a rule breaker

Leapfrog00 · Answer

A while back I was in one. Yikes! My friend Paige had feelings for me. She's a kindhearted girl and definitely girlfriend material. Well, my friend Lisa had a crush on me and got jealous when she found out that Paige and I hooked up.

Here's how ignorant the girl is! lol, when she found out Paige and I hooked up, she told Paige that I took naked pictures of her on my phone and showed them to her. I would never do anything like that without asking.

Lisa is such a good liar and believes her own lies, and she had Paige convinced. One day the two girls put up their fists and started fighting over me.

Honestly, I didn't know if I should be flattered or scared! I really liked Paige though and I hated Lisa for what she did to me, coming in between us. That's my story though!

MementoMori777 · Answer

Not a real love triangle that one person can't choose between the two but I've been friend zoned before, where they used me for sympathy and support and then get broken and it repeats, since then I avoid the friendzone and it's why I don't have female friends

sage2021 · Answer

Yes. As a matter of fact, she introduced me to him at her place years ago.

We saw each other for a year, then he moved away. Then neither of us saw him. But he continued to call me almost everyday for about three 1/2 years. Then he moved in with me a year ago. She lives in our apartment building right around the corner from us. It still makes me have anxiety being this close to her.

LaFemmeFatale_1 · Answer

Yes, I was a teenager, when my crush and someone who had a crush on me fought over me, it was very dangerous, they used knife. Needless to say I lost interest in both. But thankfully they are both alive.

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

Been on both sides of that. I wasn't actually fighting for the woman, I just wasn't shizzy to her. Her boyfriend wasn't giving her attention so she dumped him and seduced me. I've had multiple women vying for my attention several times. I usually pick the one that is the least drama. Well I always pick the one I THINK is the least drama, I may not always be correct though.

DermalPunch · Answer

No, I have never been in such a situation.

I have witnessed them. The person at the apex is usually a manipulative attention whore who likes to play dumb.

I always felt it was disrespectful to throw your other prospects in someone you were seeing's face. This is provided these are just dating relationships where people are getting to know one another and not committed ones.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

My two dogs and me :D None of us ''choses'', though, and there's no fighting unless large bones are involved.

Sparkie460 · Answer

It was kind of a love triangle. My wife was dating a guy that I went to school with. I told her I liked her too. She ended up breaking up with him and going out with me.

UnknownSwede · Answer

I've never had two people fight over me. But yes I've definitely had someone I liked who also had other love interests.

PointTaken · Answer

I have not. How would that be if a person likes two people the same? Is that why they started open relationships?

AdithyaR · Answer

If I find myself in a love triangle, I'd back out immediately. Nobody is worth all that drama

I've been there in my time, and in the end chose neither.
