AFTER deciding to experiment with a third person, one couple found themselves falling for her.
They became an official throuple and are now planning on tying the knot.
In their viral video, TikTok users Cody, Janie, and Maggie (@3.mountains) joked about their unusual set-up.
“When you and your boyfriend thought you’d spice it up and then she never left,” said Cody and Maggie as Janie danced in the background.
The pair had been together for “almost a year” when they decided to add a third person into their bedroom activities.
However, the couple grew attached to Janie and the three of them soon decided to become a throuple.

Janie even moved in with Cody and Maggie, cleaning their home as a wedding present while they were away on their honeymoon.
And while haters claimed their relationship would never work and the two women would end up hating each other, the opposite turned out to be true.
The three of them have been together for over eight years now, with Cody proposing to Janie in 2022.
Maggie even joined Cody’s “other wife” on a hen do, which they referred to as “our bachelorette.”
The throuple explained that they never kept their relationship a secret from their loved ones.
They joked that it took them a while to realise what was happening but told their families once they “felt comfortable” with how to describe it.
The throuple also poked fun at the questions they are often asked by strangers.
They pretended that they use “duels” to solve any potential jealousy in the relationship.
Their TikTok users shared their thoughts on the set-up in the comments section.
“Update in three months when the girls want to literally kill each other,” wrote one sceptical viewer.
Another follower claimed that this kind of set-up “never ends good.”
What is polyamory?
Polyamory is the practice of having romantic relationships with more than one person at the same time, with the knowledge and consent of all parties.
It can refer to relationships where one person has multiple partners or spouses, or where all parties are in a relationship with each other, for example in a throuple.
According to You Gov, 6.8% of people in the UK have been in a polyamorous relationship.
“Eventually, these situations turn to custard unfortunately,” agreed a third person.
However, others were more supportive of the polyamorous arrangement.
“You guys are a cute family, I just don’t think I could share my man,” wrote one commenter.
“OMG, I didn’t realise you guys were poly? I love it,” said another person.
“Sounds cool, but finding one person to love me sounds like a challenge already,” joked one TikTok user.
