I'm more into the Orgy dodecahedron
This is the way
POV: Every triangle is a love triangle if you really love triangles
This but unironically /s
Youre using POV in the wrongest way to hang a lantern on it and Im here for it.
POV: I'm doing my part
No one:
You:
If you really love triangles, it becomes a new sexual orientation.
Kalodin, Adolin, and Shalan (spelling is probably wrong, audiobooks of fantasy series) in the storm light archive are the greatest love triangle because each arrow is bidirectional
Brightlord Highmarshal Stormface is not in love with anyone, he just lets himself get dragged around so he can brood in different places
Something something build bridges not walls
Yeah but would he say that in front of Leshwi?
Is it a triangle if one of the sides is not straight though?
If all the sides are curved, it's a love circle
Or they are geodesics in non-euclidian space.
I.. don't know what this implies.
I'm a part of a love Calabi–Yau manifold.
Accute Love Triangle: Two people who are boning, but they wistfully pine for a third person from afar.
Obtuse Love Triangle: Two people pinning for the same third, when they'd be better off hooking up with each other.
Equilateral Love Triangle: When there is no age-gap discourse in the polycule.
Right Love Triangle: When the odd-couple finds the perfect person to square them off.
Stereographically Projected Love Triangle: A romantic Isekai
Non-euclidean love triangle: Both people who are currently together wish they were with the same third person who lives too far away for a relationship to work.

The classic love triangle was with Arthur, Lancelot, and Guinevere, where both guys wanted the girl but were also best friends. Does that not qualify?
Ah, a triangle with a platonic base.
Great joke man! The unrelated Greek term plausibly masquarading as another geometical term, brilliant!

That is the standard of the love triangle. The two love rivals have to be friends with, or at least know, each other or else there is no tension between them for their love of the 2nd party. Or else every person talking to multiple people on dating apps is in a love n-gon. And love should never intersext with n-gons.

I vote that it should. Sounds like good drama, the kind you'd expect seeing a love-triangle tag on a fancfiction site.
Technically the triangle just refers to 'relationships' and not 'romantic relationships' so two male friends and one female love interest works as a triangle but one woman with two male strangers doesn't with because that's just a V.
I remember when I was a young lad seeing a magazine about some drama or another involving a 'love triangle', and, confused, asking my mother if one of the members of the triangle was gay, since I couldn't conceive how a love triangle could work otherwise.
Correct
Wait this is great! I love my wife but she doesn't love me back! So all we need to do is find a person who she loves that then loves me so we can have threesomes!
Oh can't wait! I wonder 🤔 who this person will be!
Just make sure you can Chekov a Sociopath isn't the newbie who'll be the Pave looking for "you."
You need someone That Kind of technically superior like some fantasy futuristic.
Sounds like a plan!
I love you, but I can't promise your wife will love me :(
Ok we gotta get this to work. But first questions first. Are you now or have you ever been a hottie? If male, is your penis at least 7.5"? These are very important questions. She's a hottie but it doesn't matter because you're supposed to love me, not her. But she's supposed to love you. Can you sign the backstreet boys songs? Or the songs from Pink? Are you a gambler but you keep your cool and regularly make a ton of money in the stock market? Anyway, as for me, I got the sad bod going. I'm not too tall, not too short, 6" penis. I'm at a good age. And I love to be loved. And I love to love. So we will definitely click. Man, this is going great 😃. So yeah, tell us which end you'll need from me and which end she can get from you! LOL.
Those sides should be bidirectional
Is it really a triangle if the sides are vectors?
Maybe briefly
If we're just talking math, triangles can be defined in terms of 3-element subsets of all 3 (A)ngles and 3 (S)ides:
SSS - unique
SAS - unique
ASS - may be unique depending on the lengths of the sides
ASA - unique
SAA - unique
AAA - infinite solutions
Maybe someone cleverer than me can figure out how that maps on to love and gender.
There's some Interesting graph theory problem somewhere in here about finding out if a network of N people in M relationships must include at least one gay person.
A relationship graph which requires no gay relationships is called a bigraph (honest, I'm not making this up) or bipartite.
That follows because if you can two color the graph so that edges only connect different colors, you just assign male to one color and female to the other.
This means there's a tone of mathematical identities describing this. Wikipedia has a good introduction.
