Swinger friends now feel they are better than us because they are moving faster
I just need to rant for a moment. I've written before that we became friends with another couple last year and that I thought we had become good friends. Up until recently both couples were swinger virgins, then they took the leap.
We thought this was wonderful for them and cheered them on. Then we started noticing that they were contacting us less and less. We would try to get ahold of them to set up plans for the weekend and were told no we have plans to go to the local club. So we always say OK and just contact other friends.
Then they started saying little things like we don't think this lifestyle is for you, y'all are too slow. Now that ticked us off because we are not slow we are just choosy. It's almost as if they feel they are now better than us because they've taken the leap and according to them leap quite often. Sometimes it feels like they think it's a competition. We however don't feel like we need to compete with anyone or anything. In our opinion if this happens it happens and if it doesn't it's not the end of the world.
I have told them time and time again that I'm sorry we will not go to the local adult clubs. And the no adult club rule is my husband's wishes and I need to respect him. Yet I feel like we are being put down and ostracized because we will not go. Everyone just keep saying, "nobody's going to tell on you because if they do their telling on themselves". We understand this but do not understand why people cannot understand our wishes to not risk it.
I have pretty much chalked this friendship up to nothing and just ended it. Am I being too petty?
