Dagney is not my real name, and Gault's Gulch doesn't really exist (yet, at least to my knowledge). I'm not trying to hide from anyone, I just want to feel free to be open and honest and share my experiences and thoughts about the lifestyle without having to worry what people will think of me or of my friends.
I know some of my real life friends read this site. Those that do and that really know us well will more than likely recognize who I really am. If you do, or if you think you do... please don't assume that you know the other people I refer to. Not all of our swinger friends know each other.... so it could just be an amazing coincidence.

Friendships and the Lifestyle
Posted 02-18-2008 at 01:44 PM by Dagney
One of the things I really wanted out of the Lifestyle was to find a group of really good friends that we enjoyed hanging out with and could also have some sexy fun with. We were very lucky and we did find that group of friends. Sometimes I wonder though if it is worth it to get so close to Lifestyle friends.
Friends come and go, that is just a fact of life. But when you are able to make really good friends with Lifestyle friends - when the friendship ends you lose so much more. Of course that is because you have so much more with friends like this. Never before have I had so many friends that I am so comfortable around, that I trust with so much, or that I can be myself around like I can with my lifestyle friends.
Unfortunately, when lifestyle friends break up or leave the lifestyle for whatever reason, the friendship is usually pretty hard to maintain. We've done it with some, but failed with others. It's harder when you don't have the common events to attend (especially when you have limited time for social activities as it is).
I feel so lucky to have met such great friends. However, I also feel that I have lost some people that I very much miss because we had such a connection (way much more than sex).
I guess in the long run it is worth it to have had those people in my life. But I still miss them.

 |  I know what you mean. I had many lifestyle friends in MI before I moved back here and I do miss them. But whether lifestyle or non too often when the distance is placed it is hard to maintain that friendship. |
