Male half of couple here. Our first experience was about three years ago now. Looking back, we were lucky to meet such an amazing couple on our first time. We started in the May or June of that year because Nat had her first bi experience on New Years Eve of that year and it had been playing on her mind rather ever since. She suggested swinging as a good way for her to meet bi ladies and also it meant I wouldn't be left out.
Anyway, we put an ad on Dirty David I think it was (before the profile thingy they have on there now) and our first reply was from a couple who lived in deepest North Wales. They couldn't send us a photo, as they didn't have a computer and were getting a friend to answer emails for them. Now, if we had a reply like that these days, it would probably have spelled timewaster or pic collector or something. Anyway, we gave them our phone number and talked to an extremely bubbly Welsh lady and her partner. As they lived a fair way from us, we arranged to meet them in Llandudno in Witherspoons. We were soooo nervous going into that bar, which was massive bearing in mind we had no idea who we were looking for.
Luckily they knew us and grabbed us as we got into the door. They turned out to be a super couple, very attractive, friendly and totally sex mad. After a couple of hours chatting over drinks, I and the other lady got back from the bar to Nat and the other guy to find they had made all the arrangements and the other couple were coming back to our house! That was so exciting, that first time, for both of us, the drive back to our house.
Well they stayed for most of the weekend and we even all slept together in the same bed that night, luckily we have a king size but even then it was "cosy". We were their first couple too, and we still see them after three years. They are among our best friends now and helped us move house when we came to live in Chester.
Hmm I was thinking about posting something like this myself. I'd say let's not restrict it to good experiences, but tell us about the ones where you've lost your nerve and not gone through with it or changed your mind and pulled out as well.
The reason being that there have been a few posts over the last couple of months from people who are worried they will get trapped into a situation and feel pressured to go along with anything.
I think we should also use this thread to highlight the fact that you can always say no if you're uncomfortable with any situation you're in.
Sorry for the serious post. Normal clap-trap will resume shortly.
