Wife Swapping

The swinger lifestyle is only right for people who are confident about the strength of their relationship and who are able to be completely open with their own partner. Without this foundation, swinging may at best be a short-lived adventure and at worst, turn out to be quite disastrous for the couple’s relationship.

The swinging lifestyle therefore demands much more of a couple than just being adventurous, It requires complete openness about each other’s sexual needs and opinions within a trusting and communicative relationship. Both partners should be clear about what they want from swinging, both as individuals and as a couple. They also need to be in agreement about these goals. It is important that they understand swinging as a means of strengthening their relationship and as a release from temptation to embark upon deceitful affairs that are so often brought about by the monogamous lifestyle.

People usually get started in swinging by joining an online swinger site and making contact with other swingers by sending messages or using adult chat-rooms. Those who do not have access to a computer or prefer not to use one, often join swinger clubs who offer an offline service where contact is made by post or telephone. Whatever way their introduction into swinging comes about, the couple will eventually face the moment when the fantasy becomes reality. It is at this point when many fall by the wayside. Those that have the courage to take the next step and actually start swinging often say that their main motivation was to spice to their relationship.

Couples might be motivated to become swingers for other reasons. Sometimes it boils down to just having strong exhibitionist or voyeur tendencies. It doesn’t have to be the same motivation for each partner. Quite frequently the desire to be watched may be much stronger in one partner with the desire to watch being the motivating factor for the other. It is also quite common for swinger couples not to share the same sexual orientation when it comes to their interests in swinging. The most common difference being between the female partner who wants bi-sexual pleasure with the other woman and the male partner for whom the thought of any physical contact with the other male is an anathema.

In any swinger club, party or other encounter between swingers there are usually only two rules to always be adhered to. These are that No Means No and that Everyone’s Boundaries Must Be Respected. However in addition to these universally accepted rules, couples who have thought things through properly and have the right kind of open, trusting relationship will also have agreed on their own rules. They will also be in tune with each others body language to the extent that any situation that makes one partner feel uncomfortable is communicated to the other. In addition, they will have probably have agreed on a set of signals designed to communicate discreetly whenever they need to. For example, in the early stages of an encounter with another swinger couple, one partner may feel that he or she wants to prevent things going any further and can use a pre-arranged signal to communicate this to his or her partner.

For couples to operate such systems successfully and to remain in tune with one another, their underlying relationship must be of the sort described in the preceding paragraphs. Without such a strong relationship and total understanding, swinging is likely to prove much less than the enjoyable experience that was fantasised.
