Swinging & Special Occasions...

[telly2]

In reading getnit2gethr post about his wifes Bday, How many would want a swinging bday or anniversary surprize. or would you prefer these days between the 2 of you?

[Alura]

Our "special days" are for family. Since our sons would be part of any of our celebrations, swinging would never be part of it. If we didn't have kids, it could well be different.

I actually took my husband to our first swing club on our 11th anniversary. It was a surprise for him. We sat back watched, really enjoyed ourselves, went back to the room and jumped each other, actually for about 2 weeks afterward. He loved it! facelick

I voted that we love those days between us. Anniversaries, birthdays, and so on are just special for us. We sometimes have get togethers and parties for them, but ultimately its about us and us only. After our two birthdays, anniversary, and valentines day that still leaves us 48 weekends. Take out Christmas and Thanksgiving, that leaves 46. (Because those holidays are usually when our entire families get together.) 46 weekends are more than enough for playtime. Its important to us to keep our own special time set aside. It keeps something of ourselves separate from playmates.

Both options sound good ... there are times I love our very special time together ... go off for a fun weekend just us two, etc. Then again, I can see how much fun it would be go to go a resort or out of town with swing friends, too. But I voted special time to be just for us.

(I can see both sides. What can I say? I swing both ways! <pun intended>)

While I feel that going to a swing club for my birthday or anniversery could be a blast I definitely would want to be included in the plans and not surprised with it.

Our swinger friends usually have a birthday party for us at one of the local clubs, sometimes it is actually on our birthday, usually it is just the closest weekend. It really doesn't matter to me though if we just spend the actual day with each other or with friends.

I agree with you flirty, I...the female of the couple, would not want to be suprised with it either. However, hubby had been talking about it for months, so I knew he would love it...and he did.

As far as special days the only day that I reserve for MrVan and I is our anniversary.. That is our day and I do not ever want a suprise while in the lifestyle to celebrate that day....As far as my birthday or his, yeah getting a hot suprise like a MFM for me would be hot and I have mentioned that to MrVan on numerous occasions. Birthdays do not bother me to do something fun but for my anniversary that day is reserved for MrVan and I to make love and spend the day with each other. facelick

I guess we are different from everyone else...

For Ted's 40th B-Day (on the actual day) he had a blonde, two red-heads and a brunette giving him a naked lap dance at a swingers social...as well as his last two B-days were also spent at swinger clubs/socials. For the past seven years we have chosen to spend our anniversary at a club/social, as well as on our 20th we took a trip to Cancun with a bunch of swingers and...we've got a trip planned to Hedo for our 25th...

It's not that we put any less value on our special days, it's just the way we like spending them...it doesn't matter if we're surrounded by thousands of people or doing someone else...when we look into each other's eyes it's all about us.

Gator has a very rough work schedule making it harder to manage play time with others but not as hard to find us time. So, if it happened that the best time to swing was on a special day then I imagine we would. It's rare we get to celebrate on the actual day anyway (see the previously referenced work schedule). We celebrate special days when an opportunity becomes available, usually within a week of the event.

I voted "it really doesn't matter as long as we are together", and that really is it. I love arranging a special event for Mrs. WS's birthday. After all, it is her special day.

Teresa, you are just so rare! Tell Ted that he's the envy of more men than he'll ever know.

I was wondering why there isn't a 'special' day of the year for swingers?

Now Halloween or New Year's Eve are probably the two most popular for swinger's parties..., but why not pick a certain Saturday of some month and spread the word?

I think it'd be fun to look forward to and plan for every year. Maybe call it 'fuckmass'. And, for those who just can't wait..., we could also have 'Fuckmass Eve'!

As long as we are together!! But I do admit it's changed over the years. When our kids were young we made sure to celebrate these days as a family. Birthday dinners out, or Anniversary dinners out - as a family. Now our kids are grown and gone (don't even live in the same state!) so now it's simply that we are together - maybe a dinner cruise for the two of us, maybe a swinger party, maybe a dinner with swinger friends. Doesn't matter.

Usually for my birthday, we're at Hedo. We don't do a big celebration on our anniversary, but we wouldn't be opposed to playing on our anniversary. Special days are all year long, and as long as we're together, it's pretty much whatever we want to do at that time.
