Have I? lmao. It began in preschool where best friends Chance vs Logan were torn because I was torn between them. I had a better emotional connection with Chance but Logan was so hawt 😂 Then one day he came to class with his nails painted red and i was over him. 2000-2005 I was torn between my best friends Jay vs Alex. Personality wise I related better with Alex but I was just so into Jay. 2007 grade I was torn between friends Dustin vs Michael. 2009-2010 I was torn between enemies— the awful first boyfriend Dez 1 and leaving him for Tyler 1 who’d treat me better. Gosh I hate I’m so loyal to who came first… plus Tyler no longer was interested after the entire school found out about Dez taking my virginity. And Tyler didn't even care “how” he took it. He deemed me unpure and no longer a virgin like himself. 2012 I was torn between friends Darius vs Dre. 12th grade I was torn between cousins Kell/Quan/Ty 2. Throughout college I was in several love triangles and almost all involved taken Nathan who hid his fiance from me and had the nerve to cockblock anytime he saw me with anyone else. In 2017, it was Lu vs Des 3. For once I didn’t choose the guy who came first but thats because Lu had a double life that I just couldn’t get over. In 2019 it was JT vs JP and M vs Tom. In 2020 it was B vs Cole. In 2021 it was Langston vs M. In 2023 it was Jake 4 vs Johnny, Jersey vs Angel, Angel vs Mik, Austin vs Mik, Mik vs Tyler 5. In 2024 it was D vs Lam. I know… I need help

Once.

I had no idea during the early stages though.

I was in a relationship with a guy who I really liked. After 3 months, I started to have a gut feeling he was cheating on me. There was no evidence. But something seemed "off".

One day I was driving a few streets away from mine and saw him walking, holding hands and laughing with another woman. I followed them in my car to see where they went. They went into her parents home (I didn't know that at the time, found out later her parents lived not far from me)

When I confronted him about it the next time he rang me, he admitted he was in a long term relationship. So he wasn't cheating on me, he was cheating on his partner with me. I wanted nothing to do with him after that. He sent 100's or texts saying he wanted to be with me and would leave his girlfriend for me. I also received 100's missed calls from him.

I ignored his texts and calls, and changed my number. I was devasted at first, because I liked him a lot. But once I was over my heartbreak, I knew I had a lucky escape. It's his girlfriend I felt sorry for. I'd never knowingly get with a guy who was with another woman.

No. A guy tried. Tried hard. He was trying to hone in on my lady. She was very open about it and told me and eventually politely asked the guy to stop contacting her. But he had no respect for our relarionship

he initially tried to befriend me and flatter me that he was my buddy. But he was always eyeballing my lady and I could immediately sense it. I ignored his texts and calls. So he finally found my lady’s work email. And he is one of those dudes that is older and had an anffair in his marriage. So the wife divorced him. and so for years he has one ditsy stupid younger girlfriend after another (and this was what his daughter said to me. Her words). So my fiance later told me that he said.. “I want to settle down with a woman like you”. And she said “well I wish you the best but I’m happily taken”

Yes when I was a little kid like 6 years old some girl was in love with me and I liked another girl but I didn't know what love was back then anyway. It was just my mom who was being entertained by this XD. The girl who liked me was very shy and quiet and as a kid I was still more active and outgoing so I wasn't that drawn to her. One time she invited me to her birthday party and we did like fake olympics and I did really well and we also teamed up for some of the competitions. But was not ready at all for romance I wasn't even ready for it in high school so I was just a little kid who was enjoying life :).

AviatorTom · Answer

It wasn't a love triangle, but it was an awkward situation involving 3 people.

Many years ago, I offered to give my female co-worker a ride to the airport to pick up her boyfriend, whom she hadn't seen in several weeks (LDR). We had time to kill before his flight, so we stopped by my apartment. One thing led to another and we had sex. The drive from the airport back to her place with her boyfriend was awkward, as they made out in the back seat of my car.

Maybe_Maybe_not · Answer

YES ! Oh  high school days, fond memories  💜 Scenario 1 and 2, simultaneously. I'm  falling for that girl, she is falling for another guy  while  another girl falls for me but I'm not interested  in her. As someone said though, it's "love" and it's not, internally it is, definitely feels love. But its... The first steps at it, first disappointments, misunderstandings, when this sentiment and the implications are not well defined yet. Definitely cute 💜  I like the question, thanks :D

More like a  " lust   triangle" is what we maintained for a few years until '19.  Fulfilling our curiosity about threesome sex, we had a 2nd woman to complete our FMF threesome triangle.  She's bi who prefers women more.  My then-boyfriend (now-husband) was fully aware that she was more into me but we had an arrangement/agreement in which she was brought in to primarily pleasure him.  When her feelings for me grew, we replaced her with another woman.  However, that led into an FMFF foursome that happened quite often.  "Girl #2" dialed down her feelings for me eventually.  Nevertheless, my husband & I mutually agreed to dissolve our circle with the other women before we finally got married in '19.

Telekinetic-Potato · Answer

I remove myself from those situations real quick. If I see that starting, I'll make my intentions with the woman clear and if she does anything sketchy with the other dude I cut her off.

I absolutely hate being in competition with another guy for a woman's attention. It's just not a good foundation for a relationship.

molonski2 · Answer

Your definition of a love triangle I have had both scenarios , so not sure which box to tick , the words " in love " may be pushing it however , sometimes its nice to want that which you cannot ( maybe ) have.

How about you?

Actually I was in love with 2 guys and it was incredibly difficult to choose one over the other. I never meant to cheat but it just happened (nothing physical though, I consider emotional cheating as cheating too). I'm the one who usually lectures people about being honest in relationships, but I did that myself. So out of guilt I left both of them. I'm still not over it, but came to know that both of them are in happy relationships now and I'm happy for them.

Had a friend who was seeing a older guy and she really wanted to want go out with me. Honestly wonder if she wasn't pregnant with the guys baby, would have she left her boyfriend for me. She was sad that she couldn't me a date and it definitely showed in her voice when we talked on the phone. She really wanted to but glad I didn't get in between a girl and her future husband. I was in love her though she wasn't with me.

BCRanger10 · Answer

Kind of. You may or may not remember that backstory 🙄

DrPepper12 · Answer

She wanted me and I wanted her friend. Awks. Ended up having both at different times anyway.

Juxtapose · Answer

Yeah, but I move past it because why would I waste my time romantically loving someone who will not return it?

WhitneySnow · Answer

Luckily no. But be warned. If the person in the middle is a guy, he may end up doing sexual stuff with both of you. (Or a girl too, but that’s less likely.)

Mark987 · Answer

Thankfully no. I don't know why though but when I was in high school, I had a friend that would always get drunk and try to flirt the girl I was dating... obviously over time he stopped but he would always do it.

Richarding · Answer

Love triangle issues are compatible with polygamy

CB-Raido-Time · Answer

I thought at first you meant cheating and the answer to that would be no I never cheated but I was cheated on. Now to answer the actual question. In that case yes many times.

OfMiceandMen · Answer

I didn't really get caught up, as soon as I found out she was in one without me knowing, I ended it pretty quickly.
