How Do You Prefer To Meet New Playmates?

[lookingfornow]

I recognize that many couples meet new playmates a variety of ways. But, there must be one way that you prefer either because it has been worked best for you over time or for some other reason. Which one is it?

Honestly Swing Lifestyle has been the most successful venue for us....in not only meeting play mates but meeting great friends as well. There are alot of fakers, yes...but we have definately met some great people. Other than that the club is okay (although in our experience most people at clubs don't play or they show up with their play partners) and meet and greets are good as well. But if I had to answer Swing Lifestyle is our most successful way to meet people.

AFF is more successful for us than Swing Lifestyle however both sites are good. We also like to go to the M&G's around here. They're a lot of fun and since we're both pretty outgoing and love meeting new people, we have a blast.

We meet new people both through swinger's dating sites like Swing Lifestyle, Swingular, Swappernet, etc., but we've found that in person at meet and greets or at clubs is the best since many times a profile and some dark pics don't do the couple justice. Some people we've passed over because of their profile we've met in person and kicked ourselves because they are totally wonderful folks.

We started out by joining 3 different sites (AFF, Swing Lifestyle & Swappernet). We met a few very nice couples (and some not so nice) and then started having house parties. The house parties worked out very nicely. Different people in our group would host and that's how we've been successful at meeting new couples (being introduced to couples through our friends). We joined several clubs and went to on and off-premise parties, but have the most fun going to house parties hosted by our friends or ourselves.

Our vote is house parties

We ran into a couple that we knew from "before" and wow. And well, now we more or less use AFF or just go out and see who looks at us and how

We started with Swing Lifestyle, and still have a profile.

However, for the last 2 or 3 years, it's been all about the club.

We have only met playmates through on line sites (Swing Lifestyle and SN). However, we are increasingly frustrated with the number of phonies on the sites. We have been to one meet and greet and intend to go to more.

Sites like Swing Lifestyle and Swappernet work for us, but seem to require a lot of work on our part. Guess we are not the type where people go nuts when they see our pictures and can't wait to get us naked.

But with a little work (sending out messages to those we are interested in everyonce in a while we hit a real winner) Those of you that are real winners as far as we are conserned know who you are.

We also enjoy lifestyle conventions 1) its vacation sex 2) lots of people all with the same idea 3) we get to see (make that do) our friends from past conventions 4) we have sereral days to meet new friends and get it on (although we do get naked on the first meeting if you are up for it).

We have found that the more open minded we are about age, weight, and looks (and we are not runway models) the more we are plesently suprised. Sometimes when we say what the heck not our first chooise but lets give them a go we find out that someone who we almost passed by can rock our world. Hey it's only sex it's not like you can use it up and not be able to do it ever again.

Our vote was "Other"

Although our initial contact is through one of the internet sites, we meet face to face for dinner.

We have never attended a Club or a Meet-and-Greet.

We have discovered it is a very slow process, more due to our nature than that of other...swingers.

[sweettn]

Swing Lifestyle has been the most successful method for us. We've tried other websites, clubs, IM's, etc. and only met people who talk a good game.

I met alot of couples at a meet up once, but they all live 5-12 hours away from me. But I have to say, I think that is a fantastic way to meet people. They are suppose to be vanilla so you can chat and get to know someone with out the pressure of what happens next. If you like them, call them and meet up again in a more intimate setting, like say......the bedroom

We voted at house parties. We get to see the couple, socialize, and party at the same time. That way, if we do not like the couple, there are other couples to pick from. We tried the internet thing and was not happy with it. It sucks to end up with a couple that you have nothing in common with or just plain boring. Thanks for the host and hostess that open their homes for house parties.

Our close encounters of the 1st kind are generally on Swing Lifestyle. Our close encounters of the 2nd kind are generally at a local restaurant. Our close encounters of the 3rd kind are generally at a hotel or at our cabin.

[socolais]

We have an Swing Lifestyle profile and that's ok but not really productive as far as playtimes are concerned (no-shows, "help me convince my spouse", ...). Our prefered venue is through house parties or referrals by existing playmates - haven't had a "no show" yet.
