Maybe it’s something to do with Greek mythology, or the phrase all good things come in threes, but it’s been my favourite and lucky number since I can remember. In saying that, I’ve never had the chance to have a threesome.
Don’t get me wrong, it has been offered to me. My ex and I talked about it a bit, but it never came to fruition. There’s always been random people from nights out asking my friend and I, but we didn’t have that kind of friendship, nor were these people I wanted to have sex with — let alone a threesome. So while it’s my lucky number, I haven’t actually indulged in the most famous three there is.
Hence why I’ve decided to interview a different friend of mine, who has dabbled in the act, to find out if all good things really do cum, sorry, come in threes.
Who was the experience with, and how did you meet them?
“It was with a couple. I had actually never met the girl before, until the night that it happened. I knew the guy through a mutual friend, and we had gotten together previously a few times. He then got into a relationship with a girl a few months later, and we hadn’t spoken since until he reached out asking if I would be interested in joining them intimately.”
What motivated you to do it? Was it something you’d been wanting to try, or did the opportunity simply arise?
“It wasn’t necessarily something I had really wanted to do before; however, when I was asked, I felt like I couldn’t pass up the opportunity, as it’s not just something you get asked every day! I also knew that if I was going to do it, this would be the safest way, as I knew the guy personally. Plus, his girlfriend was super hot, so that was just a bonus.”
“I also really wanted to explore my sexuality as I knew that I was into girls; however, I had never actually had a proper sexual experience with another woman. I felt like this was a really good opportunity to get some experience in a situation where I wouldn’t be too overly nervous.
How did you feel about the experience overall? Would you be open to doing it again?
“I did enjoy it, there were definitely some improvements to be made, but it was everyone’s first time in a threesome, so that was expected. I would maybe do it again, definitely not with the same couple or the same guy, because afterwards, I could tell it had become a fetish for him to watch me and his girlfriend, and that made me feel gross. He asked me to do it again, but I said no. I’m in a happy relationship now and don’t see myself having a threesome again, but who knows!”
If someone reading this were thinking about having a threesome, what advice would you give them?
“I would definitely say to do it with people you feel very comfortable and safe with, however, not with people you’re really close with, as I feel like it can ruin a relationship. It definitely depends on the situation and the people, but in my experience and from what I’ve heard, you can end up in dangerous situations if you’re not careful. I would also warn that if you’re in a relationship and looking for a third, you should be really comfortable in your relationship, and make sure beforehand that it won’t cause issues between you.”
“However, if you’ve been thinking about it, do it! You only live once, and you should let yourself explore and have fun. I enjoyed myself and I’m glad I have the experiences that I do, just be careful, and wear protection!”
So, do all good things really come in threes? I guess there’s only one way to find out!
