Triad Troubles

Caught in a shitty spot today and I think I'm just looking for a place to stress since my friends would never understand.
I'm getting along great with both my partners at the moment but they are both going through some stuff together. They are having their own relationship issues and I'm not sure if they will be resolved. Super stressful feeling at the moment because I have no real say or input into their situation but the outcome will effect me.
It's a very odd place to find myself. If my long-term partner and our gf can't resolve their differences here I will find myself without a gf who I care for and have no issues with. The triad has been great but I guess there's certainly some drawbacks when things are rocky :(
 
Could it evolve into a v? If so you could still maintain both relationships. Not saying it will be easy to navigate at first because I'm in a very similar situation to what you describe.
 
I honestly don't know that it could. I think given how close we all are, it would be too difficult for the others to still be involved with me if I was maintaining both relationships. Also, I think that I would have a hard time keeping it all separate.
That being said, they seemed to have hashed stuff out and come to some form of a resolution for now. Things are still not 100% but both want to work on it and are committed to making it work with each other.
It's just really tricky watching 2 people you care about struggle and being able to do nothing but watch and hold your breath. Was nice to have a place to vent ;)
 
Yes, I completely agree. Have experienced that myself. Currently I am struggling with one of my partners and it's difficult for our other partner to have to just watch it play out as we try to fix it.
 
Hey there Adiktd,

Glad to hear that the situation somewhat resolved itself. It is hard to just stand by helplessly, while the other part of the triad struggles with a conflict.

With regards,
Kevin T.
