is there a possibility to build a committed, adult gay triad in Berlin?

It's real, I've seen it work. There's a polyamory meetup group that meets at the Silver Future in Friedrichshain the first Thursday of every month, and plenty of gay triads show up there. The trick is finding people who've already done the work on jealousy and communication, which is rare in the bar scene. You might also try the Queer Polyamory Berlin group on Facebook, they organize picnics at Tempelhofer Feld in summer where people are actually open about wanting structure.

yeah they exist but you gotta dig deeper than the club scene. check out the gay men's groups that meet at Schwulenberatung in Mitte, they have regular discussion circles where people talk about relationship structures openly. also the community at Cafe Cralle in Schöneberg tends to skew older and more relationship-minded, their Sunday brunch is pretty chill for conversation. just takes time to find the right two guys who actually want the same long-term thing

Those relationships definitely exist here, I know a few triads that have been together for years. You might have better luck shifting where you meet people, like the gay Stammtisch at Hafenbar in Neukölln on Tuesday nights where folks tend to be older and more settled. The scene around clubs like Berghain or SchwuZ can be more casual and hookup-oriented, so it makes sense you'd run into people who aren't looking for the same thing.

Worth noting that Berlin street names have official umlaut and ß rules that trip people up, so a sign showing "Strasse" versus "Straße" is not actually a spelling error, just an older transcription. Same with "ue" versus "ü" (e.g. "Kantstrasse" vs "Kantstraße"), both are considered valid renderings and you'll see the ß version on the blue Schilder and the ss version on older plaques or in databases that predate Unicode. If the difference you're seeing is between those two forms, there's nothing to fix and both are technically correct.

if the signs u mean are the old enamel ones on the house facades those are often protected as Baudenkmal so nobody's allowed to correct them even if the spelling is outdated. the binding version is whatever is in the Berliner Strassenverzeichnis plus the entry in the Liegenschaftskataster, so if u tell me the street i can point u to the right Bezirksamt Mitte or Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf page. tbh the merged district thing is real but the facade signs are a separate story, theyre basically museum pieces at this point

honestly thats super common in Charlottenburg, the district offices were merged from older Bezirke and nobody ever fixed all the Schilder. if its a real street you can check the official strassenverzeichnis on berlin.de, that list is what the Burgeramt actually goes by. which street is it? some of the Kaiserdamm / Kantstrasse signs are notorious for this.
