If a man or woman is telling you (an adult) who you can and cannot be friends with - RUN!

Best thing I learned from therapy - Make a list of 10 things you want in a partner and stick to it. Whether they are swingers or not doesn't really matter. They must meet your criteria or move along. Don't settle.

Enjoy your life and finding out who you are.

Good luck!

We are with Mrs. D.

You are in the Swinging/Lifestyle community. And you are trying to dip your toes into the singles "dating" community where long-term monogamy appears to be a goal/necessity of some you date, and even play with. You are mixing two opposites. Within the community here possessiveness will get you no-where, very quick. And it appears that the overlap is where the friction comes from. Do you find yourself wondering if a dating companion becomes possessive in this area, it will develop into that same possessiveness in other areas?

Good Luck
