| Here to Stay Join Date: Oct 2006 Posts: 56 Location: Planet Earth Status: Married Male | At what point do you officially qualify as being in the Lifestyle? Is there any consensus on this? Do you have had to already have your first encounter for it to count? Or does simply looking honestly count? What about if you have met a couple, both sides intend to play as soon as possible, but it hasn't happened just yet due to timing but should soon? I guess we're just trying to figure out if we are officially swingers yet.....we're definitely more than wannabes as we are committed to this and actively looking, but it doesn't seem quite right to actually say "we are in the lifestyle" since we haven't played yet. Maybe "lifestyle apprentice couple"? Any thoughts? ![]()

When you pass swinging 101. Have you paid your dues and joined the Swingers Union? When you get you diploma. When you know the secret swingers handshake. But in reality, it's up to you. Pretty simple. Did you get your secret swingers de-coder ring yet? I couldn't resist another one.

In reality, does it really matter?

I was just curious about the secret handshake. ![]() In all seriousness, I suppose it is a state of mind as you have said, and an individual thing to the couples involved. As it should be.

| Wearing a evil grin Join Date: Dec 2005 Posts: 1,142 Location: Fort Wayne Status: Married Male Swing Lifestyle Name:Thetrueloves | I went by the idea that I was in the lifestyle as soon as my wife had the notion of pursuing it. But we were swingers the moment we took the plunge and had our first experience. I like it, but it is still a self made definition. Mr. Truelove

| Swingers Board Addict | Do we get to choose what we want? The decoder ring would be cool (unless the only "code" you get to break is "drink more ovaltine" *rotflmao*) or the tattoo...maybe I could incorporate that into an exsiting design.... ![]() I would say it's mostly a state of mind, if what you are doing makes you feel that you are participating in the lifestyle, then you are! Even if you haven't met up for playtime with anyone. Just my .02 Maria ![]() |

I think we'll go with "Swinger Apprentice Couple" for now. We'll take the Apprentice off after the first encounter. ![]()
