Do singles last in swinging?

Do single swingers last as long in swinging as couples do, or is their attrition rate higher and they drop out quicker? We swing with other couples, and aren't regulars at any group or club to where we would be able to track who comes and goes, but a post in Singles are not "swingers"? suggest that this is indeed the case, the dropout rate for singles is higher than it is for couples.

 

Have you noticed this to be the case in your local swinging scene? Why do you think that is?

It depends in a lot of factors. Single male or single females, how old they are, are they already experience in the lifestyle or not. Every person is different so hard to say exact. For me I started out as a single swinger till I met my husband, and I still continue swinging.

We mostly play with couples as well and don't track singles. If anything, we've probably seen single swingers hook up with other single swingers and then become a swinging couple. I think to stay a swinging single in the LS, you have to probably really enjoy threesomes, orgies, gangbangs, or something that requires more than 2 people, otherwise, it's just a vanilla-type of hook up.

My wife and I know many singles. My casual observation is that singles endure just as well as couples.

As a single who has been at this for a while, I sometime wonder how many couples "last"...LOL. I think most people, couples or singles, do this until they have a bad experience, their lifestyle just doesn't allow them time anymore due to other commitments, or some other non-swinging reason gets in the way. I've been involved for a little over 10 years and of the friends, both couples and singles that are no longer active, life just kind of got in the way. Maybe at some point they'll be back.

 

That being said, I think a lot of singles do meet someone, or in the case of a lot of the guys, don't really "get" the lifestyle and eventually figure out it isn't just an easy way to get laid and move on. I can't ever really imagine myself dropping out as long as I am in good enough health to be able to perform adequately. It's too much fun when you finally learn how to do it right!

Most people who consider themselves "swingers" expect to swap spouses. Some "swingers" don't consider MMF or FFM "swinging".
