Since you gave almost no details, I'm going to make my own up.
Your first mistake was bringing in the goat. Or rather, bringing it in too soon. Never introduce the goat before the third date, my grandpappy always said. It's bound to eat someone's favourite boxers or shit on the bed or god knows what else, and you're just not at that comfort level yet. Also, pentagrams? That's so twentieth century. I know that everyone wants the gold chalice, bling bling, but stainless steel will last longer and is substantially cheaper. If you must go with a precious metal sterling silver will work but you need to polish it regularly. And I would fire that dwarf. Cut rate dwarfs are never worth it. You know what they say, you can never buy too much dwarf or too little chalice.

And people call me an asshole.
Tunes, the first thing you want to do is get your dick out of his wife. Then talk to them both. Maybe they're not as cool with the poly lifestyle as they led you to believe. That happens, apparently.

Yeah, it's all good until another man parks his car in your garage.
Not too many people are actually cool with that when it happens. I'd say hit it until she quits it. She's clearly in charge here anyway. ... I totally have "Gravy, Gravy Cockshot" stuck in my head, Uncle Phil. /patriotic porn themes for 500 |

I personally dont think that any three way relationship could work, but perhaps it does for some people.
But I just ask you, why would you want to share someone?

My thought? Generosity is a virtue if there is such a thing as virtue.

I would call it a flaw in this context
If/when I love/d a girl, I would/am not be so generous as to wish to share her. I want her to be only mine.

How would it be a flaw? If it made you jealous?

no girl Ive ever been with would be happy if I wasnt jealous to this degree.
I am not talking about being some kind of lout demanding to read his gf's txt messages or not wanting her to have her own friends... of course I am not like that. But I wouldnt consciously share my love of a girl with another guy (or even another girl outside of a one off sex fantasy which I wouldnt even really like if it came true)

Well, the key is mutuality regarding the setup of the relationship. If all parties are relatively the same regarding the feelings towards openness, generosity, or freedom within the relationship, then I can't see how it would be a flaw to be generous towards another person in this respect.

I am not saying I find your view of things impossible I just find it impossible for me.
