How Long Have You Been Swinging?

SwingMonkey · 07-17-2004, 12:07 AM

Just wondering how long term this has been for some of you....

07-17-2004, 12:28 AM

Actively: Since March. By chance: A few years.

Sin D · 07-17-2004, 08:56 AM

Actively = 2 years. We would actually like to be more active

, but it is a rural area and the closest club is 155 miles away.

DBL D · 07-17-2004, 10:13 AM

Since 3.21.04.

Thanks to J & D, whom we've seen again!

4 Experiences in all.

Long enough to know who and what to avoid.

Kind of a hard question to answer....we had experiences over 21 years ago with friends (a single male and a couple)...took a break to raise up some kiddies then got back into it almost five years ago.

Almost 1 year actively, over 3 years by chance.

xxoticangel · 07-19-2004, 05:11 PM

Since September of 1999. We started out slow with girl/girl and soft swing about once every 6 weeks until the summer of 2000. That was the summer we became sluts. We went over board for a while then backed off for about a year. We consider ourselves regular because we go out about once every 3 months with the purpose of finding playmates. We have personal ads and try to keep outselves flexable so we can meet with others.

Spoomonkey's post about why people take breaks got me wondering....
How long have you been in the lifestyle??
It seems to me most of the people on here have only been doing it actively for a year or two....

So How long have you been Swinging???

Spoomonkey · 08-23-2004, 05:17 PM

We've been into this for about a year and a half. Of course, a lot of the earlier months were spent getting comfortable with our boundaries, etc. We seemed to hit our stride last December.

This last April, we talked about it for years and even played with friends here and there but never actively pursued it until this last spring. I think belonging to these forums have really sped things up in helping me feel comfortable about things. Things that I was once apprehensive about don't bother me as much knowing eveyone else is thinking the same thing or going through something similiar.

OhioCouple · 08-23-2004, 07:34 PM

We are in the two-four year catagory, but not actively for all of it due to other obligations which have caused us to halt during certain periods. We still manage two-three times a year tho for 'getting away'.

**good times** · 08-23-2004, 08:32 PM

I picked 2-4 years because we first started exploring it about three years ago. But we didn't start really going for it until last November or October.

Greg & Sheryl · 08-24-2004, 10:30 AM

We chose 4+ years, but we were tempted to choose "all my life." Although we have been a couple for only 3 1/2 years, our swinging experience dates back to previous relationships. Sheryl started swinging with her previous husband in 1992. Greg had been doing so with various girlfriends (plus one wife) since his college years in the late 1980's.
