Dating Couples? Here Are 5 Red Flags To Watch Out For
"We want you to be our third, and also..."
🚩you can't date anyone else
🚩we can spend time alone without you, but you only get us together
🚩if there's any drama, it's always your fault
🚩if you want to stop dating one of us, the other will break up with you, but we stay together without you
🚩you should move in with us immediately/take care of our kids
You could be the hottest people in the world and I still wouldn’t agree to this wild ass deal.
I’ve made a lot of content about unicorn hunting over the years. There is an incredibly ridiculous laundry list of requirements that couples often come up with in order to protect their own relationship, at the expense of the third person who they objectify and disrespect as a consequence.
I’ve had plenty of positive experiences with couples on a casual basis, but I have never been in a throuple - and if I did somehow end up in one, it would probably not be with an established long-term couple.
