The reason that "people keep saying you [Edwina] support dyads" is that your three "relations" have only two "members" each, to use Peirce's term. A triadic relation has three members, not two; and a complexus of three dyadic (two-member) relations is not, according to Peirce, "a triadic relation."
All these claims are unclear to me. Why are these two descriptions inconsistent? Is there a graph theory representation of a triadic relation that does not have a dyadic subgraph?
