So my gf and i had been together for 2 1/2 years and broke up about three months ago. We recently got back together, but while we were apart she went out with another guy and they were orally involved. I'm having a really hard time getting over it and i'm not quite sure what to do. I feel hurt and betrayed that she would go off and do something like that. I understand that we were apart(especially since a got drunk and had a fling of my own). But i feel that my event was meaningless as i was drunk. I'm hurt by the fact that she was emotionally and physically involved with someone else. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as this is proving to be a rather large block for me in this relationship. I guess i'm looking for some rational thought i can apply to this situation which as an insider i cant do. thanks!

OK, maybe I read this wrong. If you're "fling" was during the break upp period, it's no different than hers. If it was before the break up, you cheated. Alcohol is never an excuse for anything.

Thump, I searched your other post including your introduction. Are you more worried about her emotional involvement with this person, or that you weren't there, or what? I think you're age is having a lot to do with it. I am really having a hard time with the fact that you're interested in swinging, but you are freaking because she had oral sex with one person while you were broken up even though you had sex with someone. If you are that upset over it, I think you need to realize the swing world is not for you. And, if you truly love her, I think this may be a sticking point but one that you can quickly scrape away. Also, given the fact you did the same/more, I think if you really love each other, just yell do over and let it go.

I agree with curiousagain.........if you are curious and interested in swinging, what's the problem? I hope you are not looking to cheat on your girlfriend but requiring her to be loyal and exclusive to you. If this isn't the case, forget about the past and get on with the present.......life is too short to dwell on the past. |

I'm in agreement with the other posters. You probably shouldn't pursue swinging if you're jealous over something that happened when you and your girlfriend were broken up. I hope you're not letting her involvement with another man and your jealously get between you two. You need to learn to let go and remember, your girlfriend is with you now. This happened when you were apart and has nothing to do with you. I hope you're not making her feel badly about this. It will most likely just push her away. Try your best to move on and forget about it. |

Very good advice! If you don't forget about it & move on you will probably lose her. Swinging probably isn't a good idea for you guys anytime soon. | |

I don't think the original post is even about swinging if I read it right. Unless I'm missing something, it's about a guy and gal who broke up, each played around a little, and now they're back. Stuff happens when you break up, what can I say? I think what we have here is some pretty young folks who haven't been with many others, and he can't believe she'd have sexual relations, even if he does. Sorry pal, it's a two way street. The reason I even responded to this is the "I was drunk" comment really hit my funny bone. Guys I lived with in college used to say exactly that in jest when they'd picked up a less than desirable girl or done something stupid. It hit my funny bone because I believe you think that alcohol somehow excuses you from your behavior and it's somehow OK because "I was drunk." How stupid, but people use this sorry excuse all the time, from screwing people to murder. |

The OP had introduced himself as someone fresh out of a relationship that was interested in swinging, etc. check his previous post.

Heck, I wonder if that would count as an excuse in a paternity suit.. "Your Honor, it's not my fault, I was drunk and I didn't know she could get pregnant." Is this guy perhaps interested in swinging to see his girlfriend with another woman? It's about the only reason I can think of, with the jealousy issues. |

Thumpmusic, I know you feel like we are beating you up over this, but I really don't think that is the case, just saying if you love this woman and she loves you then don't worry about it and if you're jealous over this swinging is NOT for you. Just trying to save you a lot of pain. If you can't stand the THOUGHT of her having oral sex with another guy, how are you going to handle SEEING and HEARING her have sex with another guy??? I have seen guys really getting into it until they realize their wife is getting physical pleasure from it then it's a whole new game for them. At this point, my advice to you is put your jealousy aside and work things out with her if you both want to do that. Set swinging aside for a few years. You're plenty young to do that. Plenty of time for extra stuff later, work on the relationship right now. |

Level of drunkeness is never an excuse for any action. Ever. Sorry, sore spot with me. Gotta agree with the others here. You have to get past this or your relationship will suffer. If your relationship suffers, there is no way a swinging lifestyle will work. It all interrelates, my good man. Work on improving yourself in this area, and good things will happen. Good luck. |

I have to go along with SexHoundDog. Being drunk is a terrible excuse for having done something. Unless someone held you down and poured alcohol down your throat, it is your fault that you were drunk, hense, your fault for having cheated. I once was at a party in London when a big brute of a man beat the holy hell out of a gentle hippy because he'd talked to his girlfriend. The next day the girlfriend apologized to everyone, including the flower person, explaining that the guy was drunk and therefore, not fully responsible for his actions. Bullshit! I'd suggest you apologize to your girlfriend and try to make amends. Better yet, you might set her free so she can find someone more mature and in better control of himself. Mr. Alura |
