Married once 35 yrs. First for both of us. When we got married, it wasn't with the idea, that if things got tuff, we would just say the hell with it, and take the easy way out. We knew there would be some hills to cilmb. What we didn't know is one child would die, another would be born with birth defects. There would be layoffs, breast cancer, depression, and diabetes. Through it all, one of us has always been there to pick up the other one. A good marriage takes two people who are willing to work hard toward a common goal. Our love today is stronger than it's ever been, because of the trust we have in each other. We know when the feathers hit the fan, we're not alone. Truth be known, she probably saved my life by marring me. It got me out of the bars and on the straight and narrow. Whata woman! facelick D.D.

Hubby and I are on marriage 1 of 1. Ninth anniversary this summer. Been in love since high school. This board has been great for us. It has made us talk a lot more. Some great talks some not so great. But we are talking and that is the key. We have been told that by so many people on the board. They are right. So a loud thank you to all.

Dishes = Good Sex.

Good question, first wife worked a job, didn't do dishes, didn't do ANY housework, didn't cook, didn't do laundry, all she did was work and knit!

If hubby (who likes to cook) wanted to make a meal for the family, he had to spend 8 hours cleaning the kitchen first!

And SEX. LOL . What sex? He said he got the "usual" once a month Saturday @9pm and she was always saying, "Are you done yet?"... And as he says, if he tried something different, she considered him a pervert!

So, he did the dishes and more, and didn't get sex, let alone good sex! lol

Now that he's with me, he has the good looking wife w/good income, clean home, cooked meals, washed clothes. etc... and great sex ! who says you can't trade up?

Only thing is, even though we're best friends in all areas and enjoy spending our time together, he never should have assumed that because I like sex, that I'd be ok with us screwing other people for shits n giggles....

I am entering matrimony for the third time (a charm, right?). We met two months ago on AFF and have been living together and adjusting to each other. We have enjoyed a single really-younger man together and may continue to play -just don't know, but in case we do we have a shared avatar on the Board. I am hoping it works out (swinging with her -she's a lot of fun), but considering the 23 year age difference, I'm really wanting the relationship and marriage to be successful, regardless.

[danni654]

YES! I agree...after being married for 16 years and in a stale sexual relationship, I couldn't wait to get out and get back in the "swing" of things. And. finding a man who was looking for the same thing made us a perfect match! We both know what it takes to please another person, sexually, emotionally, etc. And, we agree that we don't need to be married to be committed to each other. In fact, this way we're together because we WANT to be, not because a piece of paper says we are.

1st and only marriage going on 8 years now.

A year ago I might not have been so sure but we luckily caught our relationship slipping. We then both independently thought about it and decided that we do love each other and needed to work on the relationship. Since that time things have got progressively better. Only a week ago did I finally confess to her some of my fantasies and hence the reason I'm now on this board gathering info and such. We may never get into the lifestyle but the fact that we've healed our relationship to the point that I felt comfortable really opening up and sharing desires, feelings and such with her is unbelieveable for it's own right. We've never felt as close as we do right now and the sex the last few nights has been outta this world! Anyhow, I rambled a bit past the point of the poll so I'll shut up now

[danni654]

I suggest you head to a resort like Hedo or Desires and free your minds a little more!

Where in CNY do you live? We travel to Syracuse monthly. There are also quite a few clubs in the area...S'cuse, Rochester, etc....where you could go to learn more...with no pressure to do anything.

1st Time for 19 years. Been together for 30 years.

Life is Good....

[prettylady]

I have been married and I am now getting a divorce. Thumbs up to you all who have figured it out. you are stronger then I was. I am looking forward to my new relationship. Perhaps this time I will do it right. I think the freedom associated with this lifestyle will help, Hey if you can break the ice with the topic if swinging, what can't you talk about.
Your friend,
Prettylady

Disco's second marriage, Vyper's third.

Disco was married for five years to a guy that turned out pot was more important to him than anything.

Vyper's first marriage was for eight days. The day after he turned 18 he married the woman his parents couldn't stand just to piss them off. Annulled 8 days later by a judge with more sense than Vyper has.

Vyper's second marriage was for two years to a woman who tried to murder him when he found out she had been sleeping around behind his back (and she was a swinger... why the hell she had to hide it is beyond us).

Disco and Vyper have been together for six years, married for four.

I am on my second marriage, this is his first.

My first marriage lasted just over a year.

We've been together for 22 years, and can't even entertain the idea of divorce.

I think we're very lucky. We trust each other explicitly. That is something we don't see in very many couples around here.

[Rvrtas]

Tough poll - we fit in two categories. He is widowed and never divorced; she is divorced once. But neither of us intends to answer the poll other than married and committed in future.

my wife and i are married now for 5 years and loving it. now that we both jumped on the "swing" our marrage has gotten much stronger. we love having "play" parties and making new friends. to us its like being single all over again with the butterflys and the awarkness when meeting new people but with that extra special togetherness feeling.

[kidcleveland]

although its my third go around i still think once should be the right number i think that trail route is bad for most people so please be honest with each other out there an have fun as you live till you die
