DIFFERENT LIVES. MODERN LIVES

Society is progressing and going global as well. There’s no doubt on that because when we leave our homes in order to go for a walk and explore a big city like New York, London,… we see all kind of people there, wherever they come from and whatever they’re doing in there, we see Arabian, Chinese, Swedish, or Indian people and we see whole families, broken families, homosexual couples, and a new kind of relationship which is quickly increasing, trinogamy.

The advantages of sharing life with two people at the same time are considerable. The first time someone hears the word “trinogamy”, what probably comes to his or her mind is sex, the fun and exciting threesome, which is clear arousing. However, that’s not the only reason; because living with three people makes the economy benefits raise as the number of salaries are three instead of two. Another advantage is that the number of people doing housework is higher and when a problem comes out –unfortunately-, whether it is personal or economical, there’re three minds thinking about the way of solving it.

Nevertheless, trinogamy isn’t as beautiful as it seems, because jealousy usually comes in a couple, so it is clearly imaginable the disaster that can happen in a relationship like that. Making a decision can be a main problem and become a catastrophe since the three minds are probably much different and the three members of the relationship might turn the speech into an argument. In addition, this calamity could cause more than one repercussion on the child or children; in the case they have made a family.

Consequently, though the disadvantages are clear, specially referred to the children, I think trinogamy can be awesome and become, on the one hand, only an experience which can make a person see the world positively different or, quite the opposite, change forever and completely his or her life.
