What Having A Threesome Is Really Like

Threesome Expectations Vs. Reality?

What Having A Threesome Is Really Like

Looking to invite a third party into the bedroom? You may want to reconsider. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but threesomes are not anything like they are portrayed in television and movies. Here, I put six of the biggest myths about threesomes to bed.

1. Expectation: Everyone will have fun!

Reality: Ehhh someone will always feel left out. Often, two people will get hot and heavy, leaving the third person to feel left out.

2. Expectation:  We'll just wing it.

Reality: Yeah you need to set clear boundaries and plan it ahead of time. The last thing you want is for anyone, including yourself, to feel uncomfortable, jealous, or pissed off mid-coital.

3. Expectation:  You'll never want to go back to two-person sex again.

Reality: Nope one person is definitely enough. Threesomes are just not the same as they lack intimacy.

4. Expectation:  It will be stimulating to be continuously multitasking. 

Reality: It is way too fucking hard and complicated. You will have to thrust both hands wildly about and work your mouth all times, whether it be moaning or occupied.

5. Expectation:  It will be 2 women and 1 guy. 

Reality: Umm that is not always true. Enough said.

6. Expectation:  This won't affect my relationship with these people. 

Reality: Yeah no it totally will. If you have a threesome with your BFF and her partner, you may never be able to shake the visual of them getting it on. Plus, it can stir trouble when your BFF thinks her partner likes you more now.

Bottom line: Threesomes can be amazing, however, they are not for everyone. And, if they are not planned accordingly, it can be a horrendous experience.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
