While catching up on all the shows I missed during the week (No time for TV so I stream everything online), I came across a new show that highlights living with a comedian. Appropriately titled "Living With Funny", the show follows the every day life five successful comedians and their significant other. In checking out the first episode I had a few laughs at how these guys supposedly live their day to day. In the introduction of the cast, one of the members "normal" took me by surprise. Comedian Deray Davis. Known for his roles in "Barbershop", "21 Jump Street", "Wild N Out", and most recently his brief appearance on Empire, not only has one but TWO girlfriends that live with him.

Named Coco and Caro, these two women seem to get along quite well and claim they have been with Davis for years. I just watched blank faced as I observed their interaction together. If I didn't know any better I'd think the three of them were just three best friends. They call it a "Three-lationship".

Now y'all already know how I feel about "side chicks" (read my This Is For The Side Chicks post), but these women are well aware of each other and agreeing to participate in relationship dynamic.

My first thought was what is happening in the realm of relationships? Is it getting more difficult to stay faithful in a monogamous relationship? Is the shortage of men especially black men resulting in women having to double team? Are people just freaks and as the world becomes more accepting of everything, people aren't as afraid to boldly expose their sexual fetishes? Is it even about sex? Or maybe people are looking to enter these relationships to build a stronger financial foundation. That explanation would make more sense to me. Since he has what I call "Side by Side Chicks" (because he isn't married to either of them), does he have side chicks in addition? I clearly have an overflow of questions.

What do you think about a Three-lationship? Would you be in one? I'd love to read your thoughts and opinions on this one!
