Changing the subject a little.
My wife and I have found it hard to even be acknowledge in our emails to Munch organisers let alone be invited to a Munch. As my wife Claire is very shy meeting people for the first time, we decided a Munch would be the best approach for us, in terms of building a friendship with potential swinger partners.. For Claire knowing someone and feeling she can trust them is the biggest thing.. So a Munch rather than a party would suit us more.... but how to get a bloody invite is the biggest problem..???
I'm guessing as we post more often on SH and build up a relationship here, we're more likely to be invited in time... However we would be very appreciative of anyone elses advise.

My hubby (knightrider69) is shy too as he does not get much time to meet people due to him working nights. We are wating to be invited to a munch as well but I know I will be very nervous. As I dont drink alchole I wont be able to calm down. I am also hopeless at remembering names so I hope at my first munch people will be able to forgive me.

My first Munch was about six months after I joined the site.....and organised by Marcuso....
I sort of snuck in there and sat at the bar for ages looking around thinking "is that them"....and then I heard something about "SH" and thought "Aha, that's them". So I went over, adopted a casual pose (which meant me nearly falling over LoL) and said "So you must be here for the same thing I am", at which point Marcuso looked really confused and I thought oh bugger I've got the wrong group......and then he asked who I was and then gave me a big hug and kiss...and things went from there....
Everyone was so lovely to me and asked loads of questions about me (not intrusive ones) and WBB was especially lovely by introducing me to everyone and making sure I felt comfy......
We all spent ages just nattering and then went to get changed and then the Party began.....it was fabulous, just loads of people getting to know each other......
It was all depressing the next day when we had to leave sad But of course there was another one just around the corner....
I would recommend that everyone goes to Munches, they are fabulous and great fun....!!! Roll on 4th June :bounce:

That is really great to hear and I just hope I will have the same welcome you did. Thanks

Like Dawn, I was really nervous and still get that way now even though there are many familiar faces.
I deal with this by getting totally stinking rat-arsed, talking bollox and making a complete twat of myself. I don't even need a name badge. lol

At least people will remember you!!!!

Ok....
for the unintiated amongst us... is a 'munch' different to a 'party'... or is it just that the food is better?

http://www.swingingheaven.co.uk/terminology/munch.html
A munch is a purely social event held in a totally neutral environment, often somewhere like a pub, where members of Swinging Heaven get to meet each other. As there's no play involved everyone can relax which gives newbies a chance to ask questions of the more experienced without any fear of getting jumped on, and gives the regulars time to catch-up with old friends and make new ones.
Thank you for that

As a newby can you please tell me what the difference is then apart from the food
Quote by KitKat
It was fantastic, we were terrified - although it did help that we had met a few people from the site already, and in truth, we were one of the few that had. Everyone was very much in the same boat and just sort of got on with it.

I have met a couple of people face to face and what great people they are too. I hope that when I go to my first munch they will be there just so I can get started with canversation and to go on from there
Quote by Sharif
It was good..
Yes it was a tad nerve racking before hand, once I was there everyone was warm and welcoming. It was cool to put faces to names, met some really nice people. All in all it was a cool night.
So in that respect it exceeded my expectations smile

I cant waite to be able to put faces to names. There are so many great people on here and I would love to see everyone and to be able to talk face to face. Thank you

Bach Flower Remedies .... Rescue Remedy.
Pop into your local health food shop or Boots and ask them about it.
Fabulous stuff.
C x

Very good advise. Rescue Remedy really works. Good luck.
I dont know if this has been done before, if it has then sorry.
But what was it like when you went to your first munch?
Were you welcome?
Did the munch meet your expectations or were you to nervous?

Hun, sounds to me like you've just been told you need to be more eloquent. Ya gotta love these perfect people, don't ya?!

Some people don't have to be more eloquent, it's just that others are slower lol
Only joking peeps, those who know me posts will testify that I ain't eloquent
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Many a true word is said in jest Dewi. If some people put the same effort into reading that they expect others to put into writing there would be fewer bitchy and snide comments.
Very true.
I think I would have to be Lara Croft. She is very sexy, rich and knows how to move. What a bab

Do you think there is going to be more bitching on her tonight?

If there is I'd say, ignore, they aint worth it. I'm too happy to let other people's crap ruin my day :P
Thank you I shall.

Love your answer honey. Do you think there is going to be more bitching on her tonight?

sarcasm may be the lowest form of wit, but i fookin love it lol

I love it to. All I have done tonight is laugh. I hope you have. What a great sight. Winding some people up is so easy.
Well in that case how will you be taken seriously next time you have a question to ask if we all think your just on a wind up.....
The question I wrote was something I wanted to know but your replys and someother replys were funny as you were the ones picking on every little thing. Go and pick on others who might care.

Have checked, can't find sarcasm - I can see opinions though.

Check again then. It is not what people say it is has it is said.
Do you mean HOW it is said? If so, how can you tell - the typing doesn't look any different?
Who has been sarcastic?
If you check I did change my bad spelling.

Quote by rachel-lane
my ex was an escort and was bloody good at it too, and made more money in a night than most people on here would make in a month. when we met she had'nt worked for a good ten years so it was her past. did it bother me? not one bit she was the love of my life and stunning would be an understatement that girl turned heads like you wouldnt belive. now on to escorting and swinging. if i met someone at a club or a social and i knew they were on the game would i feel any different about them? no not all. swinging is free isnt it? if they were there to play then fair play. now if they were there to charge i would have a problem with it, but what ever anyone does in their spare time is up to them and good luck, if they can make a fortune at it. would i pay for it? never!. if someone offered me money? well thanks id be flattered lol. theres more chance of std,s from the vanilla types in a night club, at least escorts get tested every couple of months so id say they are very concious of their health, although your street walker thats hooked on crack would have a different stand point as they need a fix for drugs usually and wouldnt pay to much attention on their clientel or their health. so no i havent got a problem its the oldest profession going so there must be a need

Thank you for your answer. I think I asked the wrong question at the start but now people seen to know what I ment now.
Quote by freckledbird
Why is everyone so hostile? FFS sometimes it's easy to log out of here!

:thumbup:
however, best guess?
cos it's an easy option.
I don't think it's hostile, or an easy option, to ask the originator for her answer to the question she posted.
I think loads of you have been very hostile. If I have come across wrong then I am sorry. I just wanted to know if you would sleep with someone at a munch who was or had been an escort.
I have shagged a male escort. He was my boyfriend and no I did not have to pay for it. He had regular check ups and always used condoms.
Quote by westerross
As long as they're clean and they don't want money off me then no I wouldn't care.

Thank you for your answer. This is the kind of answer I wanted. Just a yes or no and if no then why not.
Quote by PoloLady
As for the jobs - all I have to say is "supply and demand" .
Would you go with someone at a munchetc if you knew he/she had been in the trade?

No - because a munch is a social event and people would get upset by such behaviour - if I started shagging at the bar that is.
On an almost serious note....
I feel a more interesting question would be: would you have sex with a person you knew normally paid for it??????
Not going to a munch to work. Would you be HAPPY knowing someone at the much was a working girl/man as a profeshon
Depends if I was HAPPY with the person for who they are, not what they are.
BTW - you didn't answer the question re: the punters?
So then you wouldent mind then. That is all I wanted to know. It is the person then not what they do.

loads of questions get asked on here that are nowt to do with swinging. it seems like a valid point, if it was brought up in a pub then it would be discussed surely, its only the internet. just dont add to the post if you dont want to and it will soon drop into oblivion.
well thats what i reckon anyway

Ok And' the second attempt had a little more merit because it was altered slightly to be relevant . The first was close to nonsense , and no not valid at all as it made no sense . There now you made me be offensive to a newbie , and i usually wait til their third or forth post ..hope youre happy LOLOLOL .

Thing havent been to bad thank you. Some people have been great but others havent but I cant expect everyone to be happy like me. But if you went to a much and found out the person you went with had been an escort would you still want to be with them?
Quote by RedHot
For example a prose will shag for a small amount in an alley but an Escort is much more expensive and wont go down an alley.

The only difference between them is the location and cost involved.
Escorts are just highly priced prostitutes.
At the end of the day, they both take money for sex, whatever end of the spectrum they are, so they would not be classed as swingers in my opinion.
Tracy-Jayne
As a swinger would you like to be told if someone was or is a working girl/man before you desided to sleep with them?
I am still trying to find out. But welcome and I hope you have a good time
Quote by Silk and Big G
I think its been asked before on here . I thought it was nothing to do with swinging then , and it still isnt .
G

Sorry if this has been done before but I cannot look into the passed. What I want to know is would you go with someone you know is or was a working girl? If you look at some of the postes then I could ask the same question. What has that got to do with SH.
I was just wondering what people thought about people who are work in the Escort trade. Would you sleep with someone at a much knowing they are a working girl in their own time?
Is that better put then?
Personally I think women have a hight sex drive it is just a woman dosent show it in the same way as a man does. In my house my sex drive is alot higher than my hubbys.
