History LoveTriangle / Webcomics

** The trolls' romance concept in general allows this (or more precise, a [[TriangRelations Type 8 relationship]]). Let's say Troll A is in a flushed relationship with Troll B while being in a caliginous one with Troll C. Troll B and C are "platonically" involved in a pale relationship. And there you go.

** The main one is between [[OverlordJr Gil]], [[TokenEvilTeammate Tarvek]] and the main heroine Agatha. This love triangle sticks out in that it overlaps with a political struggle - Gil is the heir to the throne of TheEmpire, Tarvek is key part in TheConspiracy[=/=]LaResistance, and Agatha is the last member an ancient and powerful royal house.

* ''Webcomic/ThePaulReveres'' has one between Paul, Allen, and... Benedict?

* A LoveTriangle is the whole point of ''Webcomic/GroovyKinda''. Nerd Larry loves TheAlcoholic artist Edison Lighthouse, who likes HotLibrarian Anya Langerak, who wants Larry too, but he's not sure.
* In ''Webcomic/TheInexplicableAdventuresOfBob,'' there's the one between Bob, Jean, and Voluptua; and later between Bob, Jean, and Slick.
* ''Webcomic/PlatinumGrit'' has the protagonists in a massively dysfunctional love triangle. Jeremy likes Nils but beats himself up over thinking naughty thoughts about her. Nils enjoys teasing Jeremy but is terrified at the thought of developing a real emotional attachment to anyone and is retreating into no-strings casual sex with strangers. And Kate (who may or may not have had a badly thought out same-sex relationship with Nils at some point) initially just felt pity for Jeremy, but is finding herself more and more attracted to him, but she's too embarrassed to come right out and say it. If she did, he'd almost definitely beat himself up for suddenly thinking naughty thoughts about her too.
* In ''Webcomic/MyRoommateIsAnElf'', both Jacinda and Sebastian more or less start flirting with Griswold as soon as they meet him. Griswold seems more attracted to Jacinda though, but Sebastian sees it all as a competition.
* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' has several with the main one being the one between [[OverlordJr Gil]], [[TokenEvilTeammate Tarvek]] and the main heroine Agatha. This love triangle sticks out in that it overlaps with a political struggle - Gil is the heir to the throne of TheEmpire, Tarvek is key part in TheConspiracy[=/=]LaResistance, and Agatha is the last member an ancient and powerful royal house.
** Amongst the minor characters there is a love quadrilateral. Both Violetta and Snaug are interested in Moloch who in turn fancies Sanaa, who in turn possibly fancies Tarvek, thus linking the triangle and quadrilateral into a septagon.
** There was also a love quadrilateral in the previous generation, with Bill Heterodyne, Klaus Wulfenbach, and Aaronev Sturmvoraus all in love with Lucrezia Mongfish. She wound up marrying Bill, but now Gil and Tarvek, the sons of the two unchosen suitors, are courting Lucrezia's daughter, Agatha.
* In ''Webcomic/SandraAndWoo'':
** Sandra and her friend Larisa have both fallen in love with Cloud who seems to prefer Sandra. Eventually, Larisa moves onto Landon leaving Sandra with Cloud.
** By the end, there is a new triangle with Zoey starting a lesbian relationship with Sandra, who is still dating Cloud. They become a threesome, albeit one where Cloud and Zoey have no interest in each other, but are willing to share Sandra.
* In ''Webcomic/NipAndTuck'', [[http://www.rhjunior.com/NT/00870.html Gilly overestimates his chances in one of these.]]
* In ''Webcomic/MaggotBoy'', Davey is in love with Sam, who loves her boss, who loves no one. Later, Davey and Carville are both competing for Sam, who still is in love with her boss.
* In ''Webcomic/AmericanBarbarian'', [[http://www.ambarb.com/?p=224 Rick is glad when he realizes this is not a possibility: the other man is Uli's brother]].

* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' has a few, complicated by the great amounts of ShipTease and the fact that the trolls have several different kinds of romance, in each of which only they are expected to be monogamous.
** Firstly, there's the Dave-Terezi-Karkat-Jade love square. Dave and Terezi are friends, with Dave possibly having feelings for her; Terezi and Karkat have something going on in the red quadrant but it's unclear exactly where they are; Karkat canonically gets a crush on Jade later on, who rejects him; and Jade has had a bit of ShipTease with Dave. A later update reveals that [[spoiler: Terezi has now separated with Karkat as matesprits, if they ever were in the first place, presumably due to a) Karkat seemed to want to be in ''every'' quadrant with Terezi and b) their relationship was continuously rocky and on-off, both of which frustrated her. Terezi now appears to be seeing Dave, but this is yet to be confirmed. Jade is now dating Davesprite, which John highly disapproves of (though not in a CrazyJealousGuy-type manner).]] Upon a CosmicRetcon and the conclusion of the story, Dave and Karkat are canonically a "thing", though it's not specified exactly ''what kind of'' "thing" (it seems to have both black and red elements, somewhere in the vicinity of VitriolicBestBuds).
** Secondly, there's the Kanaya-Vriska-John-Rose (and Gamzee-Tavros-Jade) [[LoveDodecahedron dodecahedron]]. Kanaya canonically had a crush on Vriska, who never found out; Vriska canonically has a crush on John, [[spoiler:who returned her feelings at first but doesn't seem to anymore]]; John has some ShipTease with Rose; and there is some indication Kanaya developed a crush on Rose, though it was more likely to simply be admiration. To complicate matters, Vriska also had a..."thing" for Tavros, who didn't feel the same way, instead crushing on Jade, who also rejected him, thus bridging the two squares. And not to mention when Gamzee hit on Tavros that one time. This isn't even going into Vriska's complicated relationship to Terezi, bridging this mess to the love square above.
** Among the trolls there's also Eridan and Sollux both having feelings for Feferi (and Eridan having unrequited black feelings for Sollux), and both Sollux and Equius having red-ish feelings for Aradia, who seems to maintain a simple friendship with Sollux, while not interacting with Equius.
** Finally, Jane, Dirk, and Roxy all have a thing for [[EvenTheGuysWantHim Jake]], plus sometimes Dirk's autoresponder, and Roxy also has a bit of a crush on Dirk as well, while Jake has a crush on Aranea, who doesn't really feel the same way, though admits it's not out of the question.
** The trolls' romance concept in general allows this (or more precise, a [[TriangRelations Type 8 relationship]]). Let's say Troll A is in a flushed relationship with Troll B while being in a caliginous one with Troll C. Troll B and C are "platonically" involved in a pale relationship. And there you go.
* In ''Webcomic/NoRestForTheWicked'' [[http://www.forthewicked.net/archive/01-43.html Perrault speculates about some gallant woodsman who helped November and promised not to tell November's fiance.]]
* ''Webcomic/QuestionableContent'':
** The Marten-Faye-Dora triangle was seemingly resolved starting with "The Talk", when Faye told Marten that she didn't believe that she could be more than his friend due to her personal issues, freeing up Dora to pursue him. However, lingering angst and Dora's trust issues eventually torpedoed their relationship, although they eventually became AmicableExes.
** Marten, Padma and Elliott have a very short-lived triangle as well.
** Elliott seems to be headed this direction again. He's admitted to attractions to both Brun and Clinton. Clinton's made remarks hinting at attraction to Elliott, but seems to also have some interest in Brun. Brun's feelings toward either Clinton or Elliott have not been stated yet. For bonus complication, Brun's friend Renee is also attracted to co-worker Elliott, who apparently does not reciprocate in this case, but still considers her a friend.
* ''Webcomic/KarinDou4koma'': At Seren's suggestion, Ran and Shizuki decide to resolve their rivalry over Tamaryu by having Shizuki become Tamaryu's wife, Tamaryu become Ran's wife, and Ran become Shizuki's wife. Tamaryu immediately mauls Seren and runs off.

* ''Webcomic/{{Tripp}}'': [[CharacterTitle Tripp]], [[EveryoneLovesBlondes Coco]] and [[SignificantGreenEyedRedhead Proxy]].

* ''Webcomic/MyDearColdBloodedKing'': Mei is caught between the elegant Katsu Asukai, and bad boy Ryusaki Hayate. Later it seems she truly falls for [[spoiler: Ryusaki,]] while [[spoiler: Katsu seems to be developing feelings for Akane.]]

* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', Elliot is the common element in several of these sequentially: First with Nanase and Sarah, then Sarah and Susan, Susan and Diane and finally Diane and Ashley.

* In ''Webcomic/SandraAndWoo'' Sandra and her friend Larisa have both fallen in love with Cloud who seems to prefer Sandra.

* A LoveTriangle is the whole point of ''Webcomic/GroovyKinda''. {{Nerd}} Larry loves TheAlcoholic artist Edison Lighthouse, who likes HotLibrarian Anya Langerak, who wants Larry too, but he's not sure.

* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'' has several with the main one being the one between Gil, Tarvek and Agatha.

** Much less antagonistic is Trish and Patty's competition for Dexter, which formed after one reality required his "one true love" to save him, and they realised they ''both' thought this was the other one. Thus far, the only real issues this has raised are scheduling conflicts.

* ''Webcomic/GeneralProtectionFault'' has the (in)famous Ki-Nick-Trudy triangle, though for Trudy it was both to 'harass Ki' and later to 'Get a hold of Nicks inventor gene'. Even after the sojourn to a parallel dimension where Trudy was left behind this triangle kept simmering [[spoiler:because in fact the parallel Trudy managed to get the original Trudy to return]] and when Ki disappeared for a while, Trudy tried grabbing Nick for herself again.

** Secondly, there's the Kanaya-Vriska-John-Rose (and Gamzee-Tavros-Jade) [[LoveDodecahedron dodecahedron]]. Kanaya canonically had a crush on Vriska, who never found out; Vriska canonically has a crush on John, [[spoiler:who returned her feelings at first but doesn't seem to anymore]]; John has some ShipTease with Rose; and there is some indication Kanaya developed a crush on Rose, though it was more likely to simply be admiration. To complicate matters, Vriska also had a..."thing" for Tavros, who didn't feel the same way, instead crushing on Jade, who also rejected him, thus bridging the two squares. And not to mention when Gamzee hit on him that one time.

* ''Webcomic/ThePaulReveres'' has one between Paul, Allen, and... [[BiTheWay Benedict]]?

** Firstly, there's the Dave-Terezi-Karkat-Jade love square. Dave and Terezi are friends, with Dave possibly having feelings for her; Terezi and Karkat have something going on in the red quadrant but it's unclear exactly where they are; Karkat canonically gets a crush on Jade later on, who rejects him; and Jade has had a bit of ShipTease with Dave.
