There is enough drama in this single post for a TV mini series. We still haven't taken the steps into swinging and as we've been following this thread we are beginning to wonder if we really want to. Geez.

 

You're right about the TV script. Moreover, I am starting to wonder if this isn't a fake story made up to give us all the "morals" for a supposedly swinging experience.

 

An I am not telling for sure this didn't happened, nor something like this wouldn't happen. It is feasible, however, this doesn't portray the average swinger couple, nor the typical swinger's behavior, and even more, if you read around, this story went against all the advices piled up along this board.

 

To make up your mind of what's swinging about based solely in this thread, having a whole forum stuffed with a broad spectrum of experiences and outcomes, where you have the chance to ask all the questions you want and read the questions and answers from other people would be, at least, a narrowed minded approach. Of course, I'd want to believe you made an ironic comment about this story, because you're forgetting about all the answers the OP got from the experienced swingers in this board, all the comments about the red flags that now entitle them to say "we told you!".

 

The OP ignored everything we said, either cheating himself with a stubborn denial attitude (if the story were true), or because it didn't fit the the script to finally bring up the "morals" with the last post (if the story were faked).

 

He gave us the story in chapters, an story that wasn't affected not even a bit by the advice we provided in the meantime, something that certainly doesn't resemble the productive dialogue featured in most of the forum posts, where the poster acknowledges the advices and takes them in account to produce a change. If this were the case, i.e. someone who is mislead into an unwanted outcome by following our advice, then you could claim we're all insane guys encouraging people to harm their own relationships.

 

We, swingers, were reduced to mere witnesses of this story, and the story wasn't a thrilling one: most of us foresight this outcome as a very likely one. You know, you went to the movies, you wouldn't give five stars to a movie where it becomes obvious who's the killer during the first part of it, and the rest of the movie goes about finding out what you already figured out. The thread is filled with the words red flag from the rest of us, the OP claimed they wasn't important, that they wasn't there, just to gave us a "report" us later about the same disastrous outcome you could read in advance in those red flags.

 

IF there is a moral from this thread, it is: FOLKS, MAKE USE OF THIS FORUM, don't hesitate to ask questions, and the sooner, the better (even better if BEFORE even engaging in swinging), pay attention to the answers, even if you dislike what you read, because the reality tells us Fate doesn't care about what we like and dislike.

 

IF the story were true, I am sorry for the OP, but neither this forum, the swingers, nor this lifestyle holds any responsibility for what happened.

Holy shit..my marriage of 18 years is over! My wife left today.. my birthday of all days and I feel like I don't even know who she is any more..my head is spinning.. i want to smash shit up..i want to weep and i want revenge but the kids are with me and I have to be daddy...what a fool I've been!!!

 

Maybe she simply decided she no longer wanted to be with a guy who allowed his wife to be fucked by other guys.

InNY, I was about to say 'troll', but I see where you are coming from. Your first post to this board was you seemingly deciding whether to leave your wife or not - because you didn't think she'd be willing to swing. So the statement you've made above seems to be a reflex reaction because of your own situation.

 

I agree with your latest post in this thread. There is more drama in this thread than in many - so as you and your wife are trying to decide about the lifestyle, make sure you read through all the posts - not just the ones full of drama. There are many, many successful swing relationships that don't post because they don't have any drama to post about! I'm sure you've read through some posts that tell the successful stories too.

 

Now... sorry for the thread-jack. :focus:

Ok, let's give him credit about the story...

 

InNY said:

My problem with the whole story is: I don't see how a consented by both parties "successful" MFM experience could be blamed for what happened.

 

InNY statement would hold waters only if the OP were being pushy about the MFM experience, disregarding his wife's feelings to the point of pushing her over the edge, making her disappointed enough of her marriage as to look for another guy, not to mention they have kids.

 

This could happen, but we'd need some confirmation from the OP about this. Since he proven to have a denial attitude towards what for everyone else around were red flags, it could be the case, and even if it wasn't the case, it's enough to suspect he wasn't willing to be aware of her wife's feelings and thoughts, and I believe a woman needs a long story of being ignored and/or hurt to give up her family and kids. Thus, this MFM experience could be just the last drop overflowing the glass.

 

As usual, we only have one side of the story. I'd love to hear the wife's opinion, and while lacking it, it isn't that easy for me to demonize her based on the outcome as perceived by the husband, moreover when this very husband gave us enough clues about himself as to assign to him a big pie for this outcome responsibility.

 

I know, the guy is in pain and I don't want to make it worst for him, but it's very likely he will recover sooner or later and he will develop a new relationship (at least, I hope so), and I would be doing him a very weak favor by telling him what he'd like to hear. I believe it'd be more valuable to point out certain things about himself that I am aware because of his own words, that could negatively affect any further relationship he may have:

 

It's childish to blame the MFM experience for this outcome, moreover if both of them consented and were willing to have it. At least, this would be the tip of an iceberg made up of a notorious lack of communication, where his denial attitude ALONE would be enough to justify it (even when his wife for sure have her share of responsibility about this). In such an scenario, a swinging experience would be enough to make everything blow up, BUT it isn't the only thing able to do it: there are many, many circumstances that would lead to the very same outcome.

 

It is late to advice about swinging or how to deal with the issues swinging bring to surface, but not to advice him to pay attention to his attitudes for the next relationship he may have.

Phew. So that's how it seems from the outside huh? And yes it sounds like I made the whole thing up. But it's all true. Really all that happened was my wife turned 41 last month, she has a close girlfriend who is going thru a big relationship change and is out there meeting new guys in chat rooms and generally being kinda reckless but swears she feels liberated and my wife, who has never done anything reckless or crazy in her life has been listening to this for months. And suddenly she's into the swing thing...And we feel closer than ever because the lid is off the pot and it seems that the people who write on this board and others are so smart and informed that it's a lifestyle that we could embrace...So we take the plunge thinking we're in control....And we have this amazingly sexy night with a guy and she experiences some of the euphoria that her friend has been telling her about and this in turn leads her down the path of thinking "Oh my god what am doing with my life. Is this all there is, I want more etc etc.." all very human feelings and I have to accept that maybe these feelings were just lying there dormant all along and the 3some was the trigger for all of this chaos.

We have talked till we're blue in the face. And I switch from being calm and composed to feeling like a total loony inside 30 seconds. All day long, but she has moved out and still feels certain that this is what she wants. She hasn't wavered once and I have to respect that.

It's not about the sex or the guy it's about her and living her life to the fullest something that we all want to do. It just came about in a really effed up way.

I have made some decisions of my own which I daresay will change over the next few weeks but for now i've told her that if she wants to see this guy again that's fine but if she wants to make it an ongoing thing then we are done. Polyamory is not my thing. I don't even think swinging is my thing. :confused: .But I was willing to try I was unaware of how my wife felt and I genuinely believe that she was too.

Our friends who know us well cannot believe it..There were no clues..The kids don't know the gory details and we will spare them that for many many years if at all.

Why my wife doesn't write here?

English isn't her first language and she's not comfortable writing. It's that simple but she reads this board and I dare say she'll be reading it at the place she staying. She hasn't moved in with the guy and she says she has no plans to, she's staying with her sister and she's looking for her own place.

It's true I can't believe this is happening to me but one thing I know for sure in this world that when it comes to love it's always a two way street. She is not a "Criminal" and I am not a "Victim" here..I played a role in bringing this about. Maybe too controlling. I try not to be. She too passive? Who knows.

This shouldn't be advice on how to swing or not. I for one am really grateful that this board exists..It really helped me to read what people said and yes I lost it for a bit because I just couldn't see what was going on. Also very human...It's one of those situations that just backfired horribly. We should have started slowly and explored the deeper stuff but we rushed into it like a new drug and cracked open what we thought was a stable relationship. Right now as I write this. I don't even want her back. It hurts to write that. But I can't get past the idea that she'll be holding his hand and laughing her beautiful laugh and wearing her sexy lingerie for him....That's too much to handle now and I doubt I'll be able to get past it anytime in the foreseeable future. The longer she stays away the less I'll want her back. She knows this..I suspect she'll regret it all one day but then again maybe not. Here's to the future.

S, I'm really sorry for you. So sorry. The rollercoaster of emotions you go through is very normal right now.

 

... but she has moved out and still feels certain that this is what she wants. She hasn't wavered once and i have to respect that.

It's not about the sex or the guy it's about her and living her life to the fullest something that we all want to do..

 

Okay, fine for her, but...is she even thinking about her KIDS? I'm sorry, but as a mother, I have a very difficult time with the way she's behaving. Kids usually pay the biggest price in these situations. You are there for your kids. Please do whatever it takes as the parent who is there (hasn't left), to give them a sense of security. If it will help you (I'll bet it would), talk to somebody professional and get it all out. In order to be there for your kids emotionally, you need to take care of yourself.

 

... I doubt I'll be able to get past it anytime in the foreseeable future.. the longer she stays away the less I'll want her back.. she knows this..i suspect she'll regret it all one day but then again maybe not,,..... here' :rolleyes: s to the future..

s

 

You are right on both counts. The longer this goes, the less you'll want her. It's likely that one day she'll truly regret this.

 

Your story (minus the MFM) reminds me a great deal of what my husband went through with his ex, before we met (it was a classic cheating situation). She reached a certain age, thought there was more out there for her, played her games, told her lies, and left her husband and her kids. Sure, she came back around to see the kids, but kids know when they're abandoned by their mother for all intents and purposes.

 

The repercussions for her (and for your wife now) go on for years to come. In her selfishness, she can't forsee now how damaging this is to all involved...but one day, she will.

 

Hugs and best wishes to you, S.

I don't want to keep beating on your problem, it is just that I believe some other guy, in the future, could face a similar scenario, and hopefully he would be able to learn from your experience.

This changes the whole picture for me (and enhances all those red flags pointed out before). Now it seems to me she could be pondering to follow her friend's path, perhaps because she made her aware of "another possible life", and all the swinging idea fitted her own desire for exploration in an speculative way... should she dislike the experience, she could withdraw, should she like it, she could move on.

 

Again, it'd be good to know her side of the story as to complete the whole picture, so I cannot ensure my current perception have to resemble the truth, but it seems enough to tell you two weren't in the best shape to attempt swinging.

 

I have to say that your current description for what happened seems way more objective than your previous posts. I am sorry for what happened, and I wish your luck to change.

Gotta say the more he posts the more I see troll here. In the OP's last post he claims that she does not post because English is her second language and she doesn't read it too well. But in post #13 he claims that she is sitting next to him correcting his spelling. Come on. If she can correct his spelling, and can read ther posts as well, then she could post her side of the story too. There are just too many things about this whole story that scream troll. In my opinion.

Okay, this is gonna be my last post. I feel like I'm having to defend myself because some people seem to think that all relationships are cut and dried and the various scenarios and solutions can be plucked from some swingers manual or something.

 

This latest person now suspects I'm making this up. I'll say this and then I'm done. My wife speaks great English, she's also an excellent speller, won her school spelling bee in fact, but she is not comfortable writing. I know many many people who hate to write and English is their first language!!!!

 

So I'm sorry but all this dissecting of whether or not this is real has worn me out. Believe me It's real, it's insane sounding I know, but it's real nonetheless.

 

I'm on the boards looking to get help and keep the many kind people updated because they asked me to. There are moments when it gets really really intense and it helps me to post here...is this so bad? Forgive me for being in a state of shock but I think the steady increase in negative unconstructive postings means I've overstayed my welcome. I don't need to be berated by people who don't even know me and I certainly don't need to apologize or explain how imperfect I am because I didn't see the infamous red flags flying...life is simple, relationships are not.

Chauk this up to experience.

 

Next time, make damn sure before you allow another guy to fuck your wife.

When we first got into swinging separately we told the person we were going to fuck that (depending if we were at the house or somewhere else) vid cam/ cell phone would be on so the SO (significant other) could watch/hear. This allowed everyone to participate and reduced the chance of insecurities.

Sounds like extreme jealousy and now you are denying the relationship to give you some peace. Well, Bro. If you ever had a chance to learn something now's the time. Change the way you feel right now about possessing another human being. Just isn't worth it. Commitment is one thing, pride of ownership is another.

      The hubs and I were very active in the lifestyle for several years.  We had a great time, we had lax rules where we were ok with each other playing solo.  I traveled with him on business and had a particular lover I was completely head over heals for.  The sex was like no other, he felt it too.  Fast forward many years, we’re out of the lifestyle. He became an alcoholic and our marriage imploded.  During all of this, we had split briefly. He came back but I let him know that I didn’t have feelings for him anymore.  We could try to coexist, for the family.  We have lived this way for 6/7 years.  Last fall T, reached out to me and I went to see him.  It was electric, as it always is.

      Well I was planning to see him again, and I was going to tell the hubs b4 I left, that I was going to see T.  Explosion!  He had suspected since last fall, how can he ever believe me again, oh yeah sure I was going to tell him... yada yada.  Hubs says well if this is the way we are going to spend the rest of our marriage we might as well get a divorce.

      He’s the one that drug me kicking and screaming into the lifestyle, we allowed each other freedoms.  I’m heartbroken and mad!

      I’ve been lurking a while and read a ton here the boards. Now I’ve gotten myself into a situation that is not talked about very much on here. I’ve fallen in love with a playmate. I really didn’t mean for it to happen, and from what she tells me she didn’t mean for it to happen either. Let me start by saying I’ve been completely open and 100% honest with my wife, and my playmate Becca tells me that she has been mostly open with her husband. We’ll get to that in a bit.
       
      Becca and I met at a club, just a few months ago. From the first I thought she was attractive, I mean let’s face it, we’re here to fuck attractive people, right? My wife, Angie, and I went to the club that night to have some fun. We’re experienced swingers-we don’t play alot, swinging does not rule our lives- but we’ve had our share of fun. The night I met Becca was no different; we hoped to meet some fun people, have some good to great sex, and maybe make some friends we could hang out with on a regular basis.
       
      Becca and I both realized pretty quickly that there is a strong physical attraction between the two of us. The sex is effortless and I’ve never fit together with anyone better. After that first night of being together, my wife Angie and Becca’s husband Rob exchanged numbers. Becca asked for my number but I declined, telling her she could just text Angie if she wanted. I don’t normally like to have communication with the women I play with outside of swinging situations. I was not able to get Becca out of my head for the next several days- which is unusual for me. I threw caution to the wind sent her my number via SLS. She texted me a few hours later. Over the next several days we exchanged texts and even spoke on the phone a few times. All with Angie’s knowledge.
       
      We all four got together again a few weeks later-and it was even better than the first time. It was that night that I recognized that I had developed emotional feelings for Becca, and I was pretty sure that she had developed similar feelings for me.
       
      A few days after we were all together the second time I told my wife about my feelings for Becca. I told her I didn’t know if I was getting our sexual chemistry mixed up with emotion but I thought that could be the case. To my surprise Angie did not freak out. She told me she suspected something was up-given the amount of communication between Becca and I. I took a few weeks to sort out my feelings and spent many more hours talking to both Angie and Becca. I realized that I was probably in love with Becca. And I told them both so. Becca told me she feels the same way. This is not the “oh, I’ve just fucked someone new, I hope they like me best” kind of feeling. We’ve both been with other people since we met and it has not cooled our emotions. This is raw, real and deep.
       
      When I told Angie all of this she gave me license to pursue a relationship with Becca and follow it wherever it may lead. I did not ask for this, Angie offered it to me. Angie is secure about our commitment to each other-I am not leaving my wife and Becca and Angie both know that. Becca also has no intention of leaving her husband.
       
      Becca has talked with her husband Rob about us and the feelings we’ve developed for each other. What she has not told him is that she thinks loves me, she does not know how he would react to that (here is the mostly open part that I alluded to in the first paragraph). She has told him our feelings are deep but has not gone into how much we care for each other. Rob is completely comfortable with texts and calls throughout the day, but not with Becca and I meeting without him and Angie there-even for lunch or dinner. I completely understand and respect this. I don’t like it, but I respect it. I suspect if the shoe were on the other foot I would feel the same way. I really genuinely like Rob by the way, he treats both Becca and Angie really well-and he and Angie have really great sex together. Angie has told Rob that it’s just sex between the two of them and Rob feels the same way. They have no other feelings for each other past that.
       
      Becca and I text every day and talk several times a week; I know about her life and children, and she knows about mine. We have similar interests and lives outside of swinging, we are in similar businesses. We have become emotional rocks for each other. I get emotional needs met from her that I do not get from Angie. Again, I have been upfront with Angie about all this and she is fine with it.
       
      So here are my big questions: Do these things really ever work, or are we on the express train to Dramaville?
       
      Is it possible to keep something like this going long term?
       
      How do we navigate the fact that Rob is not comfortable with Becca and I meeting without him around (again, we will not be going against his wishes on this one) and knowing that he and Angie will want to have more variety in their swinging soon, which will leave less opportunity for Becca and I to be together?
       
      Any thoughts from the wise sages on here are welcome. I’m a big boy-if I’ve being naïve about anything please tell me. I can take it.

      We have been playing with a couple for about five years on and off. We see them at our club, at some resorts and at local house parties. Wherever we are, she always seeks out my husband. We have all been together many times and I enjoy her husband very much, but for my husband and I, it’s literally just sex.
       
      She is very different with my husband lately than with her other partners. I believe she has fallen for him. When I see them together, she is very passionate and attentive to him in ways that I don’t see when she’s with other men. My husband rolls with it and is always a pleaser.
       
      We don’t want to make things uncomfortable or lose their friendship, but we are getting uncomfortable with the notion that she may be interested in a deeper relationship than we have experienced with other partners.
       
      Should we just go with it? I’m not sure I can handle sharing him that way and I don’t think he’s interested in that type of relationship either. Thoughts about when the sex leads to something more?
    • By Bluespruce1
      So we took in a very good friend about six weeks ago following a very ugly split with her ex. We have know both of them for about ten years and started playing together about three years ago. I actually have known her much longer and before we started hanging out as couples.
       
      Anyway, things have evolved to a point where we are sharing our bed 4-5 nights per week. We are playing together and separately. For example, in the morning it’s not unusual for me to come out of the shower and find her and my husband snuggling, touching and even fucking. I actually love seeing them together and have no feelings of jealousy. She and I are doing the same and actually took the day off Wednesday and simply spent the day in bed alone while he was at work. It’s not all about sex, but it’s clear that she really loves him and I think he feels the same about her. I know that I care deeply for her and may actually be in love as well.
       
      We prepare meals together, hang out in the evenings together, play together and still swing separately, but it is definitely decreasing. Everything feels very natural and relaxed and we are all content - have we found ourselves slipping into a true polyamorous relationship? I never really thought about it and we were talking about it last night.
       
      Thoughts? Warnings? This is uncharted territory.
    • By Erik13
      My wife and I have been in the swinging lifestyle about a year and a half now and it's been great. We have a friend we've know about a year and after a little encouragement from me and the wife she agreed to play with me. She's not comfortable playing with my wife home yet, so we always plan it when she's out. I think it may be going too far, though. We've gone out to dinner twice, alone, which my wife has told me no more. We talk almost everyday, hike and do stuff like that. I'm afraid this is becoming more than the FWB situation we agreed on.
