For The Win+Win+Win

Rare situation where a seemingly no-win scenario is reframed, redefined and represented, usually through the adjustment of multiple rules sets, until a greater than believed solution appears whereby all parties experience a more than satisfactory outcome provided they can recognize it.

Person 1: I love two people lol my friend who’s always there for me and supports my dreams and the friend I’ve been with, lived with and paid the rent for. What do I do?
Person 2: Whoa - Two options the best and the scrub. Gnarly.
Person 1: yeah either way I’m toast.
Person 2:No way! Right now you’re toast. you carry the scrub. Scrub for the Win, and you Lose-Lose. No bueno. Trust me. Marry the best person you ever met and fuck the scrub For The Win+Win+Win. You know we wouldn’t be here if he didn’t want it, and he wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t right.

Can’t win for losing

When you voluntarily lose (to make someone feel better, to end an argument), and then the situation gets even worse. So, what you thought you would gain by losing on purpose is lost anyway.

It’s a colloquial equivalent to paving the road to hell with good intentions.

(A lot of people writing their definitions for this are trying to make logic out of the phrasing but weren’t around when this phrase was more popular, leading to incorrect definitions.)

I let my spouse win the argument to calm down the situation, and now I’m getting criticized for not sticking up for myself. I can’t win for losing!
