"not on the first date. Come on do you really need to ask "

i always think its best to get that kind of thing out the way as soon as possible, the longer you leave it the harder it will be to bring up
Id pop it into the conversation tonight to be honest, its done then and if she dont want to see you again because of it at least you know now rather than a few weeks down the line when you may have fallen for her |

I think yes you should, maybe not on the first date though.
Unless you want to risk it coming back and biting you in the bum at a later date. Or are not planning a honest - trusting relationship
Ask yourself if she wasn't honest with you? would you be impressed?
You dont have to go into detail or numbers, just be honest and say, you're open minded and enjoy(ed) safe swinging previously.
That way you can discuss swinging with her in the future if you were both inclined to do it maybe.
Just my pennies worth |

Not on the first date as we all have lots of first dates that dont go any further.
But if you are planning on seeing her again i would say second date then its out in the open and if shes not happy with it nothing lost before feelings get involved.
Also if your not honest, could you really keep it a secret and is a secret a good way to start a relationship.
Have a nice date. |

Id say yes,think if i was going on a date and was getting on with a guy and thought ohhh potential second date ,yes i would mention swinging,as said previously not in detail but better to get it out now rather than further down the line.
Good luck on the date and enjoy |

At the first date you dont know her well enough, if you told her and she was horrified whats to stop her blabbing your bussiness to everyone - anyone?
When I met my now ex husband, we had been dating a few weeks, he said he thinks we shouldn't see other people so I told him.
It was basically a yes we can date and in your words 'get more serious' however I enjoy swinging and do not intend to give it up.
I remember telling him it's like having to pick 1 type of breakfast for the rest of your life, I fancy different things at different times.
He loved the idea of a free rein to sleep with whom he wants and was excited about me with other women, however when it came to me and other men
That was him and his issues though, since I have 'dated' others but they were already swingers |

The question you should be asking is not of her, but of yourself, and that is:
If you like this lady that much could you give up swinging?
Obviously you'll have to gauge how she views such things without blurting it out that you're into the scene, but if you tread carefully and see if she likes a bit of variety in bed she may well be receptive to exploring it with you.
If you charge in like a bull in a china shop you could well scare the life out of her and she'll run for the hills, even if she is open-minded. |

It has already been said but do you swing because its part of who you are, or do you do it for the fun and social..
If you had someone in your life, would you want to engage in that lifestyle with them.. If you do.. then I would say yes...
but then I would tell someone anyway as its just who I am

If she's a modern woman and planning on going dutch, i'd drop it in as your sipping your drinks once she's paid for her half of the bill.....
Joking aside though, this was recently raised by a woman. She had been "dating" a guy for a little while, but hadn't slept with him and wanted to know when/if she should drop in that she enjoyed swinging, or whether to simply give up swinging.
She was given various answers, but in the end she decided that her feelings for this guy was too strong, she'd now slpet with him and was dropping out of swinging all together, though she may at some future time test the waters with her new man.
The key to me is what you wish to happen. If you want to continue swinging, then tell her when your ready too, not first date, but before having sex with her, and if you decide that you don't want to continue swinging while your with her, then keep your past to yourself |

"not on the first date. Come on do you really need to ask
And why not? Honesty is a big part of any potential relationship is it not or am i just being dumb" Agree with you totally about being honest, however, like some other things you may not wish to mention them so soon? You could perhaps initially just indicate that you are a liberated man |

i think the big question is is the OP planning on trying to get this women to swing with him? because if not i dont see why it needs to be mentioned at all if so id say it should be mentioned as soon as possible, it may put her off but isnt it better she does a runner now rather than when you have gotten to know her a bit? |

I would say not on first date if she don't know a lot about it she will run a mile I would have. If you plan on seeing each other then test the water by talking about some of the finer sides to swinging lol xx |

Don't really think its something to bring up on a first date.
Saying that one of my exs way to bring it up was to strip me off on cam on another site.
Not exactly the best way either. |

You will know your self if the moment feels right. I think it depends on how the dialogue goes and whether you think she will be open minded about it. If not, will you risk it or keep is secret?
What ever happens, good luck and hope it works out...maybe a joint profile on the horizon? lol |

Why would you approach a subject which shouldn't even be brought up on the majority of first dates?
I would tell her when the relationship is about to turn sexual. You don't want her to feel like she is just another "fuck" so i reckon you should tell her before you have sex.
If you are lucky enough to get to that stage. Good luck bro. |

agree.
would you want to hear that she has no strings sex with other people while you sit down with your glass of wine and lasagne? lol |

First date should be the opportunity to see how well you get along and also for you to work out if she might be open to the idea? |

Sorry to hear that but at least your conscience is clear. Maybe when she's had chance to absorbe it she may be in touch. Fingers crossed |

Well to be honest I am not surprised at the reaction after disclosing this early. Many have a view swingers aren't the faithful type and she will have judged you on what little she knew about you and her preconceptions. The reality is there is a time and place for everything and in the early stages of a relationship disclosing too many personal details is best not done. There are more fish in the sea though so better luck with the next one. |
