I DATED A MARRIED COUPLE

When Gillian Myhill, 41, met a heterosexual duo looking to add another woman to their relationship, it began a new and exciting chapter in her life

I always knew I was bisexual. But growing up in Australia, toxic masculinity was rife. I felt sexually repressed in that environment and was always being called things like ‘slut’, even when I was a virgin.

It wasn’t until I moved to London in my 20s, about 16 years ago, that I first had sex with a woman. There’s something special about London: a level of acceptance around sexuality that I don’t think you get in many other world cities.

I decided I wanted to find female partners as well as male ones, so I went online and met a heterosexual couple, married for four years, who wanted to bring another woman into the mix.

They were both professionals in their 30s: she worked in the City and he had a job in the media. We met for a drink and immediately clicked.

I started dating both of them and we enjoyed a fantastic relationship. We would turn up to dinners, parties and events as a trio and barely an eyebrow was raised.
