The early years of our marriage were filled with ho-hum sex. Around year 4 we discussed having other partners and agreed to do that. We did a little fooling around with friends but no real sex. Then some guy at work got her into bed. It was OK for her but not really great. After 8 or 10 encounters, he moved away and it was over. It just satisfied her curiosity about whether there was better sex out there, and she never wanted to do that again.

Knowing about it really turned me on, and that made a big difference in our sex life for a long time.

After a few more years, we were having great sex, but I was starting to wish I could have another partner just to see what it would be like. There was nothing wrong with the marriage; maybe it was only what you might call a mid-life crisis. That's when we started swinging. That improved our sex life even more.

Now, I am the only one who has other partners but always with her complete knowledge and approval.

So, we started out "open", switched to regular swinging, and ended up "open" again.
