Do Trios ever work?

Think of a number that defines female groups. I bet you thought of three, didn't you? Well if you didn't, i did and let me tell you why. Throughout pop culture, it has been the untouchable ' three '. Three girls out to take the world on. With lipstick, feminism, sequins or maybe something more serious like a vengeance. The Supremes, Destiny's Child, The girls from Clueless, Japanese girl group Perfume and hoards more. Despite some trio's successes in remaining intact, most of them fall apart. Why? Because three people groups never work. One person always feels left out and the two other remaining members are caught in a dilemma of what to do to remain morally just. They can't just ditch the other girl ( or guy ). But what are they to do? They shouldn't give up their bond just because the third person is feeling isolated. Or should they?

When i think about the number three, it is just too close to the number two. I know how dumb that sounds. Three comes after two, Derrr. But that's just the thing, two is a dangerous number. Adding one more is like purposefully putting someone in the midst of a love-in and expecting that to be OK. Fact of the matter is, two people should only remain with each other only and third wheels should never come along. The only way a trio could work is if everybody in the group had an equal amount of fondness for each other. But that's absurd, we are naturally inclined to get along with some people better than others. I would like to talk to people who are in a trio group and haven't experienced any serious problems. I've been in a thread of trios my whole youth and they've always ended up in tears. Is it because i am too intense or because there's just something innate about an odd number that is bound to conjure up conflict?

I don't like odd numbers. They mess up the equilibrium. They are not equal and i like things to be equal or to my favor. But in the real world, i know things can't always swing my way so i'm totally OK with things being even. Looking back into my teen years, trios never worked because i always felt left out somehow. If only there were objective answers to subjective experiences. If there were, i'd ask if i really was being left out or if i was just being overly sensitive and introspective. The amount of self sufficiency i've garnered over the years has been my biggest blessing and there's not one day that i don't wish i could've started out life like this. It would've saved a whole lot of pain and unnecessary trouble.
