I didn’t literally “cry”, we did just travel 5 hours to meet at a party because we wanted to out what our vacation friends told us about swinging.
Differing politics was never an issue with our family, nobody wore their political views on their heads. The only political signs growing up was during election season, and as my father said both sides want what’s best in different ways. An American flag was patriotic.
I am reminded that nobody denied elections, wanted overthrow Congress, or take away my rights as a woman.
I don’t need sex with others, so I will continue to choose compatible partners who I would want to be friends with when I do decide to explore.
