V-ish triad, I am the hinge.

[ladyborgx]

Yes, sounds a little confusing. Bare with me.

I have a husband and a boyfriend (Who if I could I would marry). We are in a V config but we act like a triad and its turning more and more into one.
A few years ago, a few months before our wedding my then fiance and I decided to open up our relationship because I was interested in a second partner.Ended up hooking up with my crush and we were ina v for a while. That ended but a few years later, my old crush showed interest again and we have since been together for a year now.

As I said, romantically we are in a a V, with me at the hinge, however because my bf and husband are best mates and are hook up partners our dynamic is more like a triad. However recently things between my male partners have gone beyond that of just sexual and platonic. While I don't think it will ever be romantic they are growing closer and we are becoming more of a unit.

My son that I have with my Husband is at the moment 18 months.

Welcome, and congrats on your working V/triad. I was in a sort of V sort of triad until recently too. My bf and my gf were more like FWBs than full on partners.

Feel free to start new threads to discuss any issues in your group you would like feedback on!

Me too!

Hello and welcome!

I also have a husband and a boyfriend. Although my boys are both straight we also function as a triad in many ways. They are best friends (and were before I became involved with Dude) and we function as a family unit (live together, share finances, etc).

I describe us as "open-but-not-looking". Dude has a girlfriend who lives with her husband and is, for want of a better phrase, "dating" all of us to various degrees.

Looking forward to seeing you around the forums.

Welcome to the forum!

Nice to get new members with happy poly lives Sounds like you all are letting your relationships grow and evolve as they naturally do - then sometimes it becomes a bit complicated to explain. But, who cares? If you all are happy, good!

My poly configuration is an MFM Vee, and since we moved in together just recently, we have started becoming more and more one family unit. The guys are getting to know each other better and their friendship seems to flourish.

Feel free to post whatever questions you might have, and feel free to share your knowledge and experiences for the benefit of us all, too.
