Let me start off by saying that this is not my scenario, it's a non-journalism buddy's. I'd be fortunate to find myself in a menage a deux at this point. But anyway, the scenario/question:
My friend's girlfriend recently threw it out there that she'd be down with a three-way, the third being a girl, a close friend of hers. She asked my friend what he thought of that and instantly said he was down. It hasn't gone any further than that at this point, but this is where I seek your counsel.
My initial thought was to shake his hand and congratulate him. But I didn't because I actually don't think this would be a good idea for him. This girl is his first serious girlfriend, they've been dating for about seven months and the L-bomb has been dropped on both fronts.
However, I'm thinking that introducing a third party would only complicate matters and lead to an end of the relationship. Even if the girlfriend thinks it would be hot or whatever to watch my buddy plow another girl, I'm guessing her opinion on that would change as soon as it actually happens. Also, my friend really does love his girlfriend and barely knows the other girl. How's he supposed to feel, since he's not a scumbag, about that? Somehow I think he would be hesitant to do much with the other girl or would be completely mind****ed afterward if he did.
I advised against. Your thoughts?
And Moddy, let me know if I need to change the thread title. This one seems safe/cool but I'm not sure.
