getting out of the swing of things for a bit

Well....we've at best been lackadasical swingers for the better part of the past year and recently have decided to take an undetermined hiatus from swing activities.

 

Part of it was precipitated on my part by a conversation we were having one night.

 

In the last few years I have made no secret of the fact that I would like to have a 3/4/more-some with J and other guys involved.

 

So the whole point of bringing it up was to try to see if/when we could set up at the very least a MFM at some point in the not too distant future.

 

And he pipes back with a response along the lines of 'I'm not sure I'll ever be comfortable with doing that.' Holy shiz, you could have knocked me over with a feather.

 

We've had a few FMF and he's had a couple of alone playtimes with SFs which really streched my comfort levels (and even piqued my discomfort lol) and have really been working on the process of not making him feel so restricted when we go to events (that is some of his terminology).

 

So when he said that, I figured that we are obviously not on the same page (I think goals isn't the right word to use) as far as trying to work together so that we are maximizing each other's experiences in the LS.

 

Perhaps it was my inner toddler deciding to throw a tantrum...but damn it, not fair! :lol: Add this to the fact that finding a partner that is at least on par with Jeff (as far as stamina and size...but particuarly the stamina) has been disappointing and the fact that in that same timeframe that LS activities have been more stress inducing than enjoyable.

 

I mean, honestly, I love the socializing and meeting new people...but my expectations as far as the sex is concerned is so low at this point as to be damn near non-existant. I know there are some decent play partners out there, I keep hearing about them...but have yet to find one.

 

The level of frustration had pretty much gotten to the point of 'why bother?'

 

So between my grad classes and all the work I'm dealing with there and Jeff having some upheaval at work and changing positions within his company...it seems that the LS is going to be on the backburner for a bit til RL settles down a bit. :(

No advice from me on this, as I think you are probably doing the right thing for the two of you.

 

Hopefully the RL issues will ease up soon for you guys, and then you can revisit the swinging stuff.

 

Good luck to you, and don't you dare stop coming around here! :)

Sometimes I think it's about finding the "lowest common denominator" within swinging, or maybe it's the highest. What is the highest point that a couple can reach in swinging where they are both comfortable.

 

I'm with you, I would love the things you mentioned but I know Pet is not ready to even consider those ideas. Not even a MFM situation. But, there are other aspects that I do enjoy within swinging as well, so we focus on the things that we can both enjoy. I don't know if he'll ever be ready to try those other things, but in the meantime I'll just enjoy what I can.

 

As two4 said, don't let that run you off from here. Remember to focus on each other and your relationship, that's the most important thing, swinging will always be there.

The SB is one of my favorite sites to hang out on...but in the last month or so I've found myself chiming in less and less because we haven't really been participating. So, we'll see how the cards fall. Once RL settles down I'm sure we'll get back into it...RL has primarily been our major deterrent to swinging and not our apparently different viewpoints. So in the time it takes for our RL to be less hectic, I'm sure we will be able to resort boundaries/desires.
