grabbyzz 26 Posted October 15, 2009 Had this happen recently and started wondering. Have you ever met a couple online, and found out that it was someone you knew? Quote Share this post Link to post
ncmd_couple 597 Posted October 15, 2009 Yes, I have found the profile of several couples that we had met in vanilla settings. S Quote Share this post Link to post
SecretAsianMan 348 Posted October 15, 2009 I've run across a few people on the various sites over the years ... not a big deal - I'm sure they've stumbled across my profile as well. Quote Share this post Link to post
ALilOEverything 901 Posted October 15, 2009 Several times. The last time we met a couple we lived close to we were relieved we didn't know them but after a little bit of time we realized we have a business connection. The wife and my husband have had quite a little contact over the past couple years over the phone, both using business lines so they didn't make the connection at first. They've seen each other twice before but didn't recognize each other at first all dressed down. Quote Share this post Link to post
SW_PA_Couple 4,026 Posted October 16, 2009 Happened about a year after we began searching on-line. Happened on another occasion at an on-premise club. Was a bit surprising but not too terribly uncomfortable, really. Quote Share this post Link to post
MrXxotic 18 Posted October 16, 2009 We've bumped into co-workers, supervisors, exes, and acquaintances at at swing clubs. We've also found their profiles on sites. Its really no big deal. They are there for the same reasons we are. Quote Share this post Link to post
exploringRM 305 Posted October 16, 2009 We found our neighbors online. And they were a couple we knew in a vanilla way..well many on the edge of vanilla and swinger. We had drifted apart for several years, we just didn't have time to socialize much. I sent them an email via the site saying hi, but they did not receive it based on the email read flag I could see online. One weekend we were thinking of what to do and decided to head to one of the local swing clubs. So my wife called then up and invited them along. We had a good laugh over that, sure surprised them. We've not played with them and perhaps never will. Not really against it but not sure if there's anything there. (I always thought she was hot though) Quote Share this post Link to post
JustAskJulie 2,595 Posted October 16, 2009 Many times. The most recent was a girl I know vanilla - wise and realized that she and her bf were going to the same parties we'd been missing recently. And in the last month or so, realized a guy I went to HS with, who lives locally, was also on Swing Lifestyle with his wife. He pointed it out to me. Quote Share this post Link to post
LFM2 1,482 Posted October 17, 2009 Yep. One of the first M&G's we went to, I seen a girl I'd gone to high school with. Not only did we go to high school together; her brother was my boyfriend for over a year and I spent a lot of time at their house. She and her husband run our local group. I see a few people in public places and then see them at our socials, but really have no idea who they are. Just one of those things, I guess. Quote Share this post Link to post
lv2prty 17 Posted October 19, 2009 hubby and i were newbies and at a club and i saw an old friend of mine. she came right over and said" lets get this out of the way right now do we can have fun tonight, you don't say anything to anyone and i won't either." we had a great time that night and it was all okay. now when i see someone i do the same thing and it better than trying to hide all night.

PB&J 1,086 Posted October 19, 2009 OMG. Just today PB was looking at profiles and found a couple that we know very well. This is a first for us. Poor PB. He has always thought she was WAY hot, but she's almost 30 years younger than him. Still, it probably explains the funny looks she was giving ME yesterday!! There may be a conversation necessary at some point... Quote Share this post Link to post
cari and mar 45 Posted November 7, 2009 Somehow missed this thread - hopefully nobody minds us digging it out... Cari was a member of the bibabes site a few years ago and was browsing pictures of past meet-and-greets. In one of the pictures, she called me over and said "Is this Y" from the dojo? I said, "well, it resembles her, but I'm not sure." Later she found another pic and decided it was indeed her. Funny thing was that they ended up having a vanilla party not too much later and invited us over. When Y was alone, Cari walked up and said "I found some pictures of you!" Come to find out that she was not only bi (although since getting married, hasn't acted on it), but she used to baby sit for the owners of a local swing club. A month or two later, we went to The Sans Souci (off-premise bar/dance club). As we were sitting down at a table, we noticed a couple kinda checking us out from the next table. But it was dark and we didn't get a good look. Not too much later, one of them walked by the table, stopped, and then said "don't we know you from the dojo?" Small world!

YZF 8 Posted November 7, 2009 Twice at parties Mrs. YZF had a great time with a guy there. She was enjoying things so much with him she asked me if she could do a couple of things that we only do with each other. I gave her a go ahead and she made both nights for him very memorable. A couple of weeks afterward we went to trade in her Corvette and he was our salesman. Quote Share this post Link to post

SAMnTINA 362 Posted November 7, 2009 Went to a party and everyone was naked and playing when the last couple arrived they dropped their clothing and got right into the action. Later in the evening when everyone had their fill and was worn out dressed and happy we were sitting across from them when my wife said I think we know you. She said you husband as know me twice tonight and I know you and my husband were together at least once. My wife said no from somewhere else, are you band parents at ___HS. They said yes we thought you looks like we had seen you some place before. Long story short we know who to call when the kids were away on band overnights. Quote Share this post Link to post

In my previous career, I would call on one of my accounts, there was a woman that worked in another department that I would see when I would stop into the account, I got a good vibe from her, I did not think I should pursue a relationship with people that work with. I did not want to jeopordize anything for either of us. Any how, some time later, I went to a meet and greet and the host it turns out was the woman from my account. We later got naked and played ...Small world...We are still friends today. Quote Share this post Link to post
Lone_Wolf_395 15 Posted November 7, 2009 Never have - yet. I'm sure the possibility exists, but most of the people I know outside of the lifestyle are in California and I have yet to know very many people outside of the lifestyle here in Texas. I'm now filled with bewilderment over the prospect. From what others have mentioned, it is no big deal. Still, it might be a little bit of a shock because you never would have guessed or never expected to see anyone. I hope when it happens to me it ends up being a pleasurable experience.

YZF 8 Posted November 7, 2009 Don't leave me hanging. Did you get a good deal? Everyone did. He got a blowjob during the test drive, I got a blowjob on the way home and I got a few thousand off the sticker price. Needed the discount, too. I did not trade in the old ('06) Vette since I let Quita have it. I am in a polymory relationship and the new addition needed a vehicle. Keeping 2 women happy out of bed can get expensive.

Swing*8701 887 Posted November 7, 2009 Susan here-- Just once. When I was single I went to a house party. I ran into a couple, the wife had been a colleague who had moved a year earlier and changed careers. They were back visiting and ended up at this party. She began with,"Oh my god it's you !" I did them both Quote Share this post Link to post
N8ture Girl 318 Posted November 8, 2009 Yes, more than once. First one happened when we first got into the LS. There was a single guy we were chatting with. After talking over a period of a week or two, he was real leary about sending his picture as he was well known in the area. He sent it, and sure enough I knew him, but he didnt know me or remember me. I had meet him at a Chamber of Commerce event the year before. Turns out he was not single, but cheating on his wife. Earlier this year we were planning on attending a local M&G. We had e-mailed with this couple off and on for some time. They were planning on going to the M&G also. I happened to be on Swing Lifestyle that afternoon, and he sent an instant message, ok so we start chatting (hubby had chatted with him prior). After a few minutes of chit chat, he says " I think I know you" I said " oh yeah?" And he did, on a vanilla level. He was on a forum I frequented and we have M&G once in a while and I had meet him and his wife there. That one kinda freaked me out a little for some reason. Just this week, we get an e-mail from someone I know that is on a different forum (same hobby). I have known him for several years and see him on occasion at club events and M&G (both vanilla). They have been on Swing Lifestyle since 07 and I do recall seeing the profile before, just didnt know it was them... His e-mail was " Hey this is _____, really surpised to see you two here." "Yeah, you never know who you will find..." I relpied. Quote Share this post Link to post
twotocum4u2 16 Posted November 8, 2009 Couple of weeks ago my better half and I went to a M&G. A lady sitting across from my wife keep looking at her, more than normal and when their eyes met she would look away. As the evening progress, my wife leaned over and said she was getting a little uncomfortable and thought maybe she had said something that had up set the lady. I simply told her to ignore her and not to worry about it. Well, after several hours we decided to leave and so did the lady with her mate. We all hugged and started some small talk as we stood there. I mentioned the my wife and I met on a local Army base were we both worked about 2X years ago and my wife mentioned she had grown up there and attended high school in the local town. The other lady did some quick math and turned to my wife and asked if she attended a certain high school and my wife said yes. It turns out that the lady and my wife were high school running mates and good friends then. They hadn't seen each other in over 25 years. We made up for lost time and have had several play session with many more to cum. Quote Share this post Link to post
MtnSwing 23 Posted November 11, 2009 I live in a small town and the nearest clubs are an hour away. Most of our city friends have never met anyone they know. Over the past few years my ex and I met around 8-10 couples that we know. It seems that we live in a very horny small town. Just last week I was discussing this with some friends at a swing club and right beside me was a girl I've known for at least 15 years. I didn't recognize her because of her costume (Halloween party) and the fact that I would have never expected to meet her there (I'm sure she had the same reaction). Another time I met a couple that I knew and they let it slip that they knew SEVERAL couples that we would know (that also came to the clubs). We spent weeks trying to figure out who they were. We eventually found out but would never have guessed in a million years but it was fun testing our playdar around town trying to guess. We went for a drink at our local pub one day and got home to a message on this site asking: "Were you just having a drink at the _____?" we replied "maybe - who are you?" It turns out they are local as well and as soon as I checked out their profile I instantly recognized the mrs. Every time we've met someone that we know or who may know us they have been totally cool. We're all in the same boat with lives outside the lifestyle and nobody has ever been indiscreet with us. And hey it's always nice to have someone locally that you can actually talk about the things you can't share with your vanilla friends. Quote Share this post Link to post
PB&J 1,086 Posted February 25, 2010 Hah! Went to a professional conference today, got there late, and while killing time in the lobby while waiting for the opening speaker to finish, realized that the other latecomer hanging around was a woman I'd seen at a club a couple of times in the last month... we started chatting, I dropped some heavy hints, and then she realized where she'd seen me, and then we REALLY had an interesting conversation!

gavandd 15 Posted February 26, 2010 Yip at our first swing party...my wife bumped into a cpl whose child she had previously taught! needless to say the 4 of us hooked up and had a great time lol.....we play with them on a regular basis now! Quote Share this post Link to post
exploringRM 305 Posted February 26, 2010 We found neighbor friends online when we first started swinging. Sent them an email but they never responded and it appears it was not read (no preview on that site). The one site they did not use that much. So wife called girl half of couple up and said you need to check your email. We went out to the swing club one night, just for some drinks and dancing. I don't think they are interested in us, but hard to tell. It may be too weird as we have know them for 10+ years. I (guy half) always had the hots for her though..hehe. And on the flip-side we've only had one time where we spotted L/S people out in the vanilla world just the other night. Saw them at a bar with their friends. We were with our son and a few of our friends and did not say anything. We really had never met them but I recognized them from their profile and seeing them at a swing club. I emailed them and they said we should have said hi but I worry about the "how do we know them" questions. Quote Share this post Link to post

lakelife69 15 Posted March 7, 2011 good thread. i'll revive it again. we got into the ls about a year and a half after we moved 700 miles away from our neighborhood we lived in for 7 years. for grins i was looking at profiles from my hometown and found a wedding picture of a neighborhood couple that we regularly partied with and even went on vacation with. actually it came as no surprise to us that they had a profile on sls. i don't think they know we do though.

funcoupledayton 2,708 Posted March 7, 2011 We ran into one of my husband's employees at our local club. It was very funny because after meeting them at an office party I had told my husband, "I think they might be swingers." It's really kind of nice to know someone you know has a secret too. We don't worry about running into people we know because we figure we're all there for the same reason. Quote Share this post Link to post
EnjoyingLife 127 Posted March 7, 2011 We did. I actually posted about it on this site, looking for advice on what to do. We were brand new and this was the first couple that had contacted us online that we had seriously considered meeting, as it seemed we were on the same page and had a lot in common. It turned out we had more in common than we knew. Once a couple of emails had gone back and forth, we'd traded enough info and were getting to the point of making a date, we realized who they were. Someone my husband used to (about 5 or 6 years ago) work with and his wife! To make a long story short, we've met with them a couple times since then. Strangely enough, it was never awkward. We had an almost instant connection, that elusive 4-way attraction that is so rare, and things have been really comfortable and FUN between us. They ended up being our first real soft-swap experience, and it was awesome since they have been in the lifestyle for quite a few years and were really great about going slow and respecting our boundaries. We're seeing them again this weekend and are looking forward to it. Quote Share this post Link to post
WesternSwing 504 Posted March 7, 2011 Yes. We've met my ex-wife's best friend and her husband who had converted to the LDS Church and stopped talking to us a couple of years before. We also met our middle daughter's preschool best friends parents at a club one night. We've also met several people from within our business dealings. You never know who is opening-up their relationship. Quote Share this post Link to post
SheerBliss 92 Posted March 8, 2011 The first couple that approached us on SLS seemed to be perfect for us! We had lots in common, similar viewpoints, etc. Then we exchanged face pictures. We got an email back from them saying "hey you guys....it's us - your old friends John and Mary (not real names)! Long time no see! So, what have you been up to?" They went on to say that it would be great to see us, but not to play with us because it would be "creepy"! I took offense to that, although I don't think they meant any. We were all appropriately surprised to see the other couple on a Swinger's site and got together for a nice platonic meal. Quote Share this post Link to post
sweet_tna 680 Posted March 8, 2011 Yep, I've been found by the mom of a kid my youngest went to preschool with, who I was already friendly with. It sure made those chats in the parking lot more interesting! And Mr. Sweet has run into two of his coworkers at parties, both female. We didn't play with them, though one of the gals was awfully friendly toward him at the last party where we ran into each other . . . =) Quote Share this post Link to post
suniedazed 16 Posted March 8, 2011 Someone had hit me up, the male half, I liked him and talked to his wife on the phone and liked both of them. We finally made plans to meet at our club when they walked the woman looked like someone I thought I knew. Turns out she used to live w/ me and my dad 20 years ago!! Funny thing is, on our site I do not use my real name because of how original it is and we live in a really small town, but I told her my name on the phone. How she did not put 2 and 2 together I have no idea!! It was fun reconnecting w/ a good friend and finding out we have something else in common Quote Share this post Link to post
