The Swingers Board - View Single Post - How do we bring up swinging to our friends...or should we?

Before we got into swinging we'd tried to hook up with our best friends, another married couple, for some fun. It didn't quite work out, the guy wasn't considerate towards his wifes feelings and it all just fizzled. Everyone backed off from the whole thing except him. He continued to try hooking up us or just my wife privately. This slowly started to cause problems between the two couples and between those two specifically. Eventually he started cheating and they got divorced. Now that we're in the lifestyle and we know couples in the lifestyle it's just so much simpler and a lot more fun. A lot more to gain, a lot less to lose. A couple that's already in the lifestyle isn't nearly as likely to act like our friends did. I could see us possibly getting together with a vanilla couple or single that we didn't know as well, but never again with anyone who are already close friends.
