new and hopeful

[tadasana]

Hello,
I am in a situation that has me spinning. My common-law partner and I have been together for 6 years. I am a bisexual woman, he is a bisexual man, and we have had great times swinging together. About a year ago we met someone who became very, very dear to us both. What started as a fun little sexual relationship developed into a strong friendship and love, and now I find myself trying to let go of conventional relationship ideas so as not to sabotage my love for these two people. I guess I just want some reassurance that this isn't doomed to fail solely on the basis of what it is.
It feels like the love I have with one smooths over parts that can be rough with the other, and vice versa, and I know these feelings are felt by everyone. I would really appreciate some advice or insight on my situation, especially by those who have ever found themselves in a similar one.
thanks for reading.

Hi and Welcome :)
Sounds like you've got the beginnings of a traid going there. Or the possibility of one. I am currently in a traid with Sunshinegrl and Aussiebloke. We're pretty new to it all as well, but hopefully you can find some advice and help here. There's lots of knowledgable people and useful threads.
It takes a while for some people to wrap their heads around loving more than one person at a time. We were in this situation. We didn't know what poly was before we decided we had to be together. So we kind of went in blind. There are lots of obsticals, but so far I can tell you it can defenately be worth it.
good luck
