Help, she wants to swing separately

Recommended Posts

We've been into swinging almost a year now. Wife gets more prospects then I do, married and single. She is way much more open to the swinging than I am. We have had, soft play, swap same room and a threesome MMF. We have not found the couple that interests us both. Either the male half is not to her liking or the female half is not interested in me. How do I get over the anxiety of her getting or wanting single play?

I think that separate play is for Swingers with a lot of experience. We are moderately experienced and we are hesitant to play in separate rooms at the same party.

 

It is very hard to get a four way match, but I think that you are far from playing separately if you are anxious about it. Take baby steps and enjoy the ride.

First off, welcome to the Swingers Board.

 

The first thing you have to have is absolute trust in each other. If you don't have that yet, then I would work on that together before considering swinging separately.

 

The next thing you have to have is a healthy sense of compersion, or them being happy makes you equally as happy.

 

Next would be that you are 110% in this together, no matter what the details may be. That kind of ties back to the compersion thing. Most couples who swing separately still see the swinging unit as the couple, and not as two individuals, so even though only one may be there physically, they both are there in spirit.

 

Finding compatible couples can be a lot of hard work and take patience, but it's worth it in the long run. Just based on what little I know about your situation, I would be cautious with the swinging solo thing right now. Instead, try to redouble your efforts on finding a couple you both are attracted to and comfortable with. Find that and all sorts of possibilities open up.

Firstly, remember that you absolutely do not have to agree with this if you don't want to. This is a two yes one no situation and if you're not 100% then your no should halt all proceedings.

 

If on the other hand this is something that you want to do, you are intellectually happy with the idea but are just dealing with some misbehaving emotions, then I would start by figuring out why you're anxious. What is the fear or worry that you have. Figuring that out is usually the first step to overcoming anxiety of any sort.

Always move at the speed of the slowest member...since you are hesitant about her swinging alone, then she should respect that and not consider it any longer. We think of swinging as a team sport and her becoming a free agent isn't going to help the team. Until you are ready (IF you are ever ready...and that's okay too) swinging separately should be taken off the board.

Hi,

 

We're quite new in this too, but I just wanted to share our experience to inspire you. We opened up our marriage, after 14 years happily together, 6 months ago. From the start, I (the wife) very much wanted to meet other guys solo. My husband didn't feel like keeping me from this, though he preferred not to be excluded form my adventures. So we agreed on telling each other 'as much as possible', and both created dating site accounts. From the start it was obvious that it was much more easy for me to meet guys, then for him to meet other ladies. Simply because there are not that many ladies on those apps looking for casual sex.

I started seeing the first guy after a month, and from then on every 2 or 3 weeks different guys. In the beginning it was quite stressful for both of us, not knowing what this would lead to concerning our own sex life, but after 2 or 3 months the stress reduced and we started to visit swingers clubs, to have some shared experiences as well.

For us the key to success, was the fact that we were very honest and open about our thoughts and feelings towards ourselves and each other. I think openness and trust is what you need to fully enjoy the swingers lifestyle. The fact that my hubby acknowledged my desire and need to feel free, made me love him even more. Our sex life has never been better. He loves to see how much attention I get, and how this turns me on. I hope that my experience will inspire you in any way. Please feel free to reply or contact me if you like to talk about your own experiences.

      So we are new to swinging for the most part. We've had some experiences in private with other males and females.
       
      We are very interested in going to a swingers club but also nervous at the same time. My husband is worried about boundaries being respected and possibly pushy men. We are a secure couple so that's not the issue, we just don't want to deal with that type of behavior.
       
      Is this a problem we might run into?

      Hi out there. I’m married and in an evolving relationship. Last year I did a burlesque photo shoot for him as a gift. He loved the way it turned out but asked if I’d be willing to do something more risqué in the future. I got a reference from the original photographer (female) and told my husband the new photographer would be a male. Being the protective husband he is we both requested a meeting over a cup of coffee. We met which was great and made things all the more comfortable. I loved what I saw from his book and my husband did as well. 
       
      We had the shoot and the pictures came out great. He got really turned on by knowing another guy was doing the pictures. I was shocked. I asked him if he’d consider doing a couples shoot with me and he said he’d try but was reluctant. Pretty soon after he agreed and we were off again.
       
      Prior to the shoot my husband and the photographer talked about his career. My husband, who’s faithful, shocked me a bit with his envy and open talk about what the photographer experienced. I’m extremely open and joined in the conversation. Both of us felt like we were conversing with someone we really liked and knew a lot longer than we actually did. Unfortunately my husband had difficulties getting hard which is completely out of the ordinary. The photographer said it happened a lot and just to relax. 
       
      Surprisingly at my husband's request he asked for me to do a POV shoot the photographer showed us in his book. Basically it’s the photographer including himself in various ways while taking the pictures. As we started taking the pictures I liked being touched by the photographer even though it wasn’t active foreplay or sex. It really was strictly for the pictures themselves. During the pictures my husband quickly got hard and watched. Eventually the photographer asked him if he was going to get involved. The rest of the shoot went as we planned. Afterwards we all sat around and talked and went through the pictures.
       
      Some time passed again and we talked a lot about the fun we had with it. My husband admitted he liked watching the photographer touch me and if not for that he may have been to nervous to get hard. 

      I really want this to develop further but I’m apprehensive because it’s a major change in life obviously. I’m also not sure about how I feel about seeing him with someone else. When I say I’m not sure I mean most likely not. I don’t even really think he wants to. I almost feel like if I bring that up it will be too much too fast. Multiple times when having sex we’ve dirty talked about me doing another shoot and giving myself up. I’d feel more comfortable to actually do it than talk about it. 
       
      I feel like my husband has opened a door that I want to walk into. Am I reading it wrong? Is it best for me to just set something else up and let it work itself the way it will? Based on our interactions I have no doubt the photographer would be into it also. Would I be going to far given our relationship if I reached out to the him and told him how I feel, how my husband feels, and confirm he’d say yes?

      For veteran swingers, how often do you swing, swap? How many different partners do you have in a swing "event"?
       
      Also how do you add an avatar? Having difficulty there.

      One of my friends was mentioning that his wife got invited for a vacation with one of their regular playmates. It would be a 4 day vacation, where only the wife goes with the BF, hubby stays back.
       
      Has anyone any experience of this scenario, they are swinger and cuckold couple.

      Some stats on the swinging world.  Interesting that a slim majority (50.2%) of men now identify as bi.  65.8% in the 18-39 age group.  I think the days of that being a closeted thing in the swinger world are coming to an end.  Also surprised me that 80.5% were soft swap only.
