OK, our turn. We don't have too many embarrassing episodes, since we don't embarrass easily. There is one however that stands out. We laugh about it now, but we were mortified at the time.

My brother lived with us for about 9 months, during our very early swing days. He had been recently divorced and fell on hard times. My family had washed their hands of him due to some substance abuse problems he had. Out of love, we invited him to stay with us for a while. He took a job in the same restaurant where my wife worked. He didn't know anything about us being swingers.

My brother and my wife worked with the guy who joined us for our first MFM. The MFM was great, and we all had good fun, but we were naive to the idea that it is bad to mix sex and coworkers. It wasn't bad enough that the guy went back and told EVERYONE who worked in the restaurant about the episode, but he told my brother first, who then proceeded to tell my very devout Southern Baptist parents. Better still, he made it sound like I wasn't there, and my wife was cheating on me. I did my best at damage control, and my mom bought it. My dad, however, who was quite the sexual overachiever in his day, never seemed to buy it.

To this day, he has never brought it up. But he has been a lot more flirtatious around my wife (ewww!)
