For Many Couples, Taking the Third is a Game-Changer for Intimacy and Trust
At 48, Bea and her husband Eric have been together for 30 years, but their relationship has taken an unexpected turn. When Bea experienced a resurgence of libido during perimenopause, she and Eric began exploring non-monogamous desires, including threesomes. What started as a tentative experiment with an "adult social club" has evolved into a transformative experience that's brought their relationship to new heights.
Bea credits Feeld, a dating app for open-minded individuals, with connecting her with 40-year-old Drake, who shared her fantasies and sparked a strong physical and emotional connection. During their first threesome, Bea felt empowered and confident in a way she never had before. However, Eric struggled to relive the experience, feeling jealous that Bea was spending quality time with someone new.
Despite these initial reservations, Eric has been supportive of their exploration, recognizing that communication is key to navigating this unconventional relationship. For him, taking the third person in their dynamic has reignited his passion for sex and intimacy. "When Bea experienced this resurgence of desire I loved it," he says. "It's brought us back to a level of closeness we'd forgotten."
The experience has also allowed Eric to tap into his own desires and explore new ways to make Bea feel good, even vicariously through Drake. While acknowledging that taking the third person can be challenging for some men, Eric is adamant that he's monogamous at heart. "If I can make the person I love most in the world feel good, and experience pleasure vicariously in the process, why would I stand in the way of that?"
Bea and Eric's journey highlights the complexities and benefits of non-monogamy in long-term relationships. As they continue to navigate this new territory, they're committed to prioritizing open communication, trust, and mutual respect. For many couples, taking the third person can be a game-changer for intimacy and connection, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to love and be loved in return.
The key to their success lies not just in the physical act of intimacy but also in fostering an emotional connection that transcends jealousy and competition. By embracing their desires and exploring new ways to experience pleasure together, Bea and Eric are redefining what it means to be a loving partner in the 21st century.

. Their journey highlights the importance of communication, trust, and mutual respect in navigating unconventional relationships. I think it's interesting that Eric was able to tap into his own desires and explore new ways to make Bea feel good, even vicariously through Drake 
. It just goes to show that non-monogamy isn't about replacing one partner with another, but rather about expanding the relationship dynamic to include more intimacy and connection. The key is finding that emotional connection that transcends jealousy and competition 
.
. Like, I get why some couples would want to shake things up after 30 years together 
. And Eric being supportive of Bea's desires? That's a major win in my book 
. It shows that even if you're not into threesomes, you can still be a great partner by listening to your partner and being open-minded. The app Feeld is also kinda cool - it's like a platform for people who want to explore their desires without judgment 
. Anyway, I think this whole non-monogamy thing is making me rethink my own views on relationships... maybe it's time to get more adventurous 
!
... they're just enabling people's weird fantasies without considering the actual consequences for the couple involved. Like, Bea and Eric's story is cool and all, but have you seen how many red flags there are? They met on an app that caters to non-monogamous desires, and then they start exploring threesomes right off the bat? That's just a recipe for disaster.
. I mean, sure, it might be empowering for Bea, but what about Eric's feelings of jealousy and insecurity? It's not like he was all on board with it from the start.
...
. I've been married for like 10 years and my wife has never really had that spark with me after kids came along 
. But I'm not judging, 'cause everyone's different, you know? For them to find a way to make it work... well, that takes some serious communication skills 
. And hey, if it brings them closer together, then more power to them 
. The thing is, though, with the world we live in nowadays, it's all about choice and what makes you happy 
. Maybe we should be learning from Bea and Eric and not be afraid to get creative in our own relationships 
. I mean, Bea and Eric's story is like something out of a Marvel movie - they're taking on the world one threesome at a time 
. At the end of the day, it's not about the number of people involved, but about how you're feeling as an individual - is there chemistry? Is there passion? Is there love?
. It's not always easy, but it sounds like Bea and Eric have been doing just that, and it's paid off for them 
), but if done right, it can be a real game-changer for intimacy 
!
. It's not just about the physical aspect, but about creating a safe space for vulnerability and trust... sounds like Bea & Eric have found that sweet spot 
but honestly I think Bea & Eric's thing is kinda cool bc they're making a conscious effort to keep their relationship fresh & exciting 
. It's crazy how a little spark from Feeld (lol, what even is that app?) can reignite the flame in their relationship 
. It's like, if you can make the person you love feel good, then why hold back? 
And I gotta respect that Eric is still down to earth and monogamous at heart 
. For some couples, taking the third person might be a total game-changer (pun intended), but for others... it's just not their thing 
.
. It's like, you're not just focusing on the physical stuff, you're exploring emotional connections too 
!
. For me, it's all about trust and communication - if you're both on the same page, it can be a really beautiful thing 
.
. Are we ready for a world where polyamory is the norm? Only time will tell
