So I’m looking for other peoples opinion on a situation.
We are on here as a couple and got involved with a guy as a three. For months all has gone well with Mrs p going seeing this person at a club for 1-2-1 meets and us having a few 3 ways etc.
Chat between us has always been on WhatsApp and I have always insisted as it being as a 3 and no private messages between anyone as I’m not comfortable with it and believe it should be kept in our group chat.
I found out a few months ago Mrs P and said person had been privately messaging out of the group. I mentioned I wasn’t comfortable with it and asked to keep it to the group which was agreed by all.
Just before Xmas the same issue occurred and we all agreed that it was to be kept in the group chat, today I have also seen it’s been going on.
So that’s 3 times in the space of 2 months it’s happened and now Mrs p is saying I’m being unreasonable as I have cancelled our meeting tonight with the said person due to not trusting them.
Mrs p stance is it’s just messages to boost her confidence and doesn’t see the issue as I’m happy for him to sleep with her normally.
Am I being un-reasonable or would you cancel a meeting with someone who three times has done something you found disrespectful? |

It’s never unreasonable to have boundaries
It becomes unreasonable when you try to control someone
Explain your boundaries and be firm
If they don’t go with it, leave them
You can’t control others. Only yourself |

If you have a boundary that is repeatedly ignored it's reasonable to take action to enforce it |

I mean I’m no expert, but it sounds to me like they have strayed into emotional affair territory ... as opposed to it just being about sex.
I would imagine that this is a risk you take in your situation. Hope you manage to sort it out with everyone |

I don’t see it as being unreasonable. Its disrespectful of him to continue chatting in private, despite knowing your wishes.
Keeping to peoples boundaries is important. |

I don't see why messages to boost her confidence can't be done in the group chat. I would be annoyed by repeated private messaging. |

No. Not unreasonable. You had ground rules agreed between you, they should be adhered to.
I would end the dynamic between the three of you. |

Ah .... that's different. I was going to say you can choose to not go but you have no right to cancel what others do.
This is now a bit complicated but I have thought about it and will post my thoughts as you've asked. |

No your not you set boundaries and they not being respected
I would say sit down a talk with wife and also cut ties with 3rd party
He’s shown he can’t respect your boundaries should be a atomic in the bin for him
First rule off being a 3rd is respect the couples boundaries |

If boundaries have been set then they should always be respected, it's wrong to break them so I think you're right to be pissed and it's happened more than once which is worse |

I would only disagree, if this was a prior discussed agreement. I’m which they as a couple set clear boundaries and limits on bringing others in to their dynamic, so their relationship isn’t effected by it.

Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
If you have set the boundaries and everyone is happy with that then it’s disrespectful if someone is straying beyond those boundaries.
I wouldn’t be impressed if my partner done this behind my back, in a vanilla or swinging environment.
It’s all about trust and it sounds like yours has been broken.

you never break the rules you lay down as a couple our motto is we both agree or nothing ie if one wants something/someone and the other dont then thats it end of this have served us well over 28 yrs of swinging .... start breaking rules then the relationship will take a turn for the worse.
op ive had this a few times and ive never needed hubs to get involed im clear from the start to other guys cross the line and your gone nothing is more important to me than him we make a great team and by being a great team swinging has always been easy and dramma free |

O.P.
Here goes........
Firstly no agreement should ever have been entered into. It was a pointless agreement BUT an agreement shouldn't be broken.
I think 'the no private messages' was asked for from either 'fear' or 'jealousy' or 'control' ..... hear me out first...
You are happy for Mrs. P to meet this man alone at a club. Surely you realise that they'd have private conversations there ? Unless fucking in abject silence is their kink.
So what difference does a private message make ?
Do you listen to all Mrs. P's conversations or is it just this man that you object to ? Think about it - there are thoughts going on in your head about this. Either they can meet and fuck or they can't. Your objection , to me, sounds as if you are not truly happy with her meeting him at all.
If I was that bloke .... and I wanted to say something like ... ' I am going to lick and suck your fat juicy tits until you beg me to go down on you then fuck you anally' I would not want another bloke to share the message.
If they are 'getting it on' then flirty or sexy texting before hand might be part of it.
Insisting they don't have a conversation unless you are privvy to it is highly controlling ( in my book ) or maybe as I said earlier you are not really happy with Mrs. P swinging alone.
Bottom line is ..... No agreement should have been broken without someone saying 'this agreement isn't on and i'm breaking it because....
Frankly if my other half did that to me ....... well ..... it's over to you two now. |

I had an open relationship with an ex,and trust was ment to b in it.but for him he couldn't do it.
I would sit her down,say how u feel,ask her how she would feel if u did it.
Then ask her not to have an contact with him for a month and try and work on both of u,if u then feel like its not working for u both.leave,at least u have tried.
Women tend to love with feeling,lust can b very strong thing and make us do something which isn't really us.
Give yourself both time.
But don't blame each other,work on what u both want now. |

You’ve set boundaries that all agreed.
Not just once but then agreed upon again after they’ve crossed them.
I personally wouldn’t be happy at all with either of them. 3 times would be excessive for me personally, for them to overstep limits put in place. Be that vanilla or other. |
Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
Him not respecting your wishes/boundaries is one thing, but your partner not respecting them is a whole different issue all togheter...they both promised that messages will stay between all 3 of you, butbher breaking that promise is the issue from my pov.
I don't know your situation with her, or your circumstances, but for me that would be a form of betrayal. However this is one of the reason I could/would never have an open relationship... sorry dude, wish I could give a more in depth advice. I think you need to have a serious conversation with her about what you both want ...I see a serious disconnect there |
Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
If S didn't want me to have private conversations with guys that I meet, then there is no way that I would.
That she continues to do so despite you asking her not to is a betrayal of trust in my opinion.
Talk to her, express your feelings and encourage her to do the same.

Boundaries are important to adhere to but it's also important that they're reasonable in the first place.
It's difficult to comment fully without knowing what the context of the relationships are meant to be, ie whether this is a poly type setup, just sex or something else but If your partner is frequently meeting this person on a 1 to 1 basis I'm not sure a ban on them communicating privately is realistic or reasonable.
If you're going to have a 3rd party come into your dynamic, particularly one who has diferring relationships and engagements with each of you then it's naive to think that feelings might not come into the equation at some point. My guy reaction to the situation is that yes, boundaries are not being respected but that there are also issues with trust/insecurity from your side.

Pandora’s box has well and truly been opened there.
(Technically it is Pandora’s Jar, but it has been misinterpreted as ‘box’).
Anyway, as the legend says....Pandora opened the Jar out of which all the horrors in life fled out from and into the world (famine, poverty, etc). With all her strength ...she managed to close it but one thing was trapped inside. |
Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
As others have said I find it rude you set the rules for chats in group chat and he is and has ignored it. Your partner is also at fault as she hasn’t refused his messages and making excuses for it.
Maybe you and partner need have conversation about situation and boundaries set.

I'd certainly knock it on the head with the fella.
As for your misses, I think you might have bigger problems than you think. She has gone behind your back 3 times, breaking boundaries set in place. How would she feel if the boot was on the other foot?
I suspect she has got emotionally involved with this guy. You need to have a serious and honest chat with her.
Good luck OP |

This, if your partner truly respected you she would have had your back and pulled up the 3rd party the 1st time he tried to contact her privately and informed you. Once he did it the 2nd time (if he was given a 2nd chance) she should have cut all ties with him as he clearly can't be trusted.
Maybe you partner and this guy have developed feelings for each other?
We only play together as a couple though so maybe a couple who are into separate meets may give better advice.
Let us know how it goes OP.

For us swinging is about trust and communication. THEY have BOTH broken that trust multiple times.
If this happened to me it would be enough for me to end the arrangement and have serious conversations about our future as a couple. |

I don't think you are unreasonable
It wouldn't have gone past the first 'warning' for me
Boundaries and respect are imperative
My OH is free to meet on his own (as am I), but we still have boundaries - one of them being no multiple meets
I am not arsed at all about his sexual adventures, but emotional bonding with someone else is a threat to our relationship - a relationship that is superb - and I wouldn't want that changing due to one of us getting too close to a 3rd party (and that works both ways) |

As someone who is sometimes the third person in these situations I would always respect the boundaries and rules of both of the couple and if it was causing any kind of issue I would gracefully withdraw from the arrangement. |

The worst part of this for me is that after it happened at first, it was highlighted, and then after that she continued to do it, knowing it upset you.
That's all on her. The other guy is not part of your relationship with your wife. He's got no commitment or obligations to either of you, but your wife most definitely does.

"So I’m looking for other peoples opinion on a situation.
We are on here as a couple and got involved with a guy as a three. For months all has gone well with Mrs p going seeing this person at a club for 1-2-1 meets and us having a few 3 ways etc.
Chat between us has always been on WhatsApp and I have always insisted as it being as a 3 and no private messages between anyone as I’m not comfortable with it and believe it should be kept in our group chat.
I found out a few months ago Mrs P and said person had been privately messaging out of the group. I mentioned I wasn’t comfortable with it and asked to keep it to the group which was agreed by all.
Just before Xmas the same issue occurred and we all agreed that it was to be kept in the group chat, today I have also seen it’s been going on.
So that’s 3 times in the space of 2 months it’s happened and now Mrs p is saying I’m being unreasonable as I have cancelled our meeting tonight with the said person due to not trusting them.
Mrs p stance is it’s just messages to boost her confidence and doesn’t see the issue as I’m happy for him to sleep with her normally.
Am I being un-reasonable or would you cancel a meeting with someone who three times has done something you found disrespectful? "
It sounds like the problem isn’t just with the other guy but the missus as well! And no you’re not being unreasonable. You should only do what you’re comfortable with! |

For me personally, you are doing the right thing, you have set boundaries which were agreed to, if the trust has gone from you to the other guy, you should end it and have the conversation with your wife as to why it’s been ended.
For me, if I found myself in that situation as the 3rd guy, the last thing I would want to do is to get involved in other peoples relationship. I don’t do drama and never will, life is too short |

Absolutely disrespectful. She is not putting you and your wishes and your relationship first. Major red flag.

"Absolutely disrespectful. She is not putting you and your wishes and your relationship first. Major red flag.
Swinging may not be the best life for you to pursue until you resolve whatever is going on in the background. I wish you all the best with however you choose to deal with it but I would be absolutely fuming. "
Thank you sadly it’s not the only thing that’s happened recently so think it’s time to end things x |

All three of you are not on the same page here, this reads like dangerous territory to me for a number of reasons -
You seem jealous and a tad possessive on one hand however you are happy to let someone else fuck your wife but she can’t send a message to someone - I could see your frustration if a meet between your wife and the 3rd party only had been arranged behind your back but as you are aware they meet without you and are seemingly ok with that, how is a message more intimate or threatening than a man with his penis inside your wife?
I would say your ok with sharing your wife sexually but not emotionally, that you expect her to behave in a certain way and don’t like that she hasn’t which one one hand I understand as you have expressed your annoyance at the messaging and it has continued but your not asking yourself why it has, why your wife seeks confidence in the form of another man’s messages - perhaps she needs more attention than you provide
I think there are way more factors here than a message or two
I hope you can work it out together x |

"Does your partner find this thread unreasonable?
He's asking for advice. He's not the one in the wrong here."

Depends who instigated the private chat, if it’s him it wouldn’t be going further, if it was her ask her the real reason why
But for me he wouldn’t be getting another look in either way

Yes the whole conversation then went private.
Also to add insult to injury he’s now pestering asking us to still go or if not send Mrs p alone you couldn’t make it up if you tried.
Seems both are completely oblivious to any wrong doing |

Not unreasonable at all. They're both disrespectful in my opinion. I think it's time to call a halt to all communications. I also think that you should have a long and open conversation with your wife |

Being honest it sounds to me like you and the Mrs need to take a break from sleeping with other people and work on the communication and trust in your relationship. Swinging doesn't work without a solid base to your relationship.

"So I’m looking for other peoples opinion on a situation.
We are on here as a couple and got involved with a guy as a three. For months all has gone well with Mrs p going seeing this person at a club for 1-2-1 meets and us having a few 3 ways etc.
Chat between us has always been on WhatsApp and I have always insisted as it being as a 3 and no private messages between anyone as I’m not comfortable with it and believe it should be kept in our group chat.
I found out a few months ago Mrs P and said person had been privately messaging out of the group. I mentioned I wasn’t comfortable with it and asked to keep it to the group which was agreed by all.
Just before Xmas the same issue occurred and we all agreed that it was to be kept in the group chat, today I have also seen it’s been going on.
So that’s 3 times in the space of 2 months it’s happened and now Mrs p is saying I’m being unreasonable as I have cancelled our meeting tonight with the said person due to not trusting them.
Mrs p stance is it’s just messages to boost her confidence and doesn’t see the issue as I’m happy for him to sleep with her normally.
Am I being un-reasonable or would you cancel a meeting with someone who three times has done something you found disrespectful? "
No your NOT been unreasonable at all...boundaries where set and your wife and this guy have broken them and gone behind your back...her loyalties should have been with you 100% on this and even though this guy did message her out of the arranged 3 way chat then she should have refused to message back and told you straight away. Then your wife does it again after you explaining how you wasn't happy with them chatting that way...So 3 times she has disrespected your feelings on the situation, it doesn't matter that you agree with her having sex with him...Its all about the trust and she as well as him have broken that trust 3 times, this would make me think what else has she lied about? |

WTF people going on about you controlling....
No, you guys had a 3way agreement it's been broken I would never meet the 3rd party again and give her a choice him or you something are black and white. |

I kinda see their thinking, though don't agree.
Personally I see it this way ......
He's said, yeah sure you both can have casual sex, but don't hide it away from me.
That in the form of keeping messages open. |

it seems to me as she has attached to this guy for her to refuse your wishes,
lets put it this way, how would she feel if ball was in other court and a woman was messaging you out off group chat privitely.
it's a tough dilema to be in as you've obviously been enjoying the scenario but now the boundries seem to have gone intop different realms
good luck though |

It sounds like both of them have overstepped agreed rule several times. It also sounds like there was just a "no" from you to messaging outside the group chat instead of having a conversation about why do they do it.
I have a FWB. Original agreement with husband was to keep meets related and sexual messages on a group chat, but I was messaging with FWB outside group as well since he was a friend before the benefits.
It was hard to keep separate chats for sexual and non sexual things as conversations would dip in and out of sexual theme, so we started messaging privately only. Husband didn't want to know the details of our "likes", "dislikes", kinks that he knows I'm into, but he has no interest in whatsoever. I had a conversation with him about messaging and he understood that there are no hidden agendas or anything he should be worried about going on between FWB and me and he's happy for us to carry on messaging privately. He also has an option to read through our messages if he wanted to.
All I'm trying to say here is that instead of presuming maybe it's best to have a conversation about things to try to understand why they're happening. |

While it was difficult, you did the right thing and has the conversation out in the open. I have a feeling that if the OP's wife would have done this and opened up the communication then this thread wouldn't be happening.
The hardest thing is the feeling that you can't trust someone. If everything is in the open and you don't feel comfortable, then thats a different thing altogether.

Relationships are priority, so you both have to agree on your reasons for swinging and your rules. Stopping everything if it can't work the way you both agree it to be working and right is important, to keep the relationship as the priority. If it comes to disagreements, you need to communicate fully until you reach agreement.
In my opinion, agreements must be 100% from both, as should any changes. |

Feel for the OP, if one partner is breaking boundaries and you try and enforce them. It will only make things worse. Boundries are a choice. Stick to them or break them and any consequences. I have been in this situation, ultimately the outlook is not good. We have boundries because that is what we mutually want. Neither of us would break those boundaries because we have trust. Without that we have nothing.
Maybe i have misunderstood the post, if Mrs P is actively breaking boundries then she has made her choice. Any kind of enforcement will simply exacerbate the situation. I hope you fine a solution wish you well |

It's not about the seriousness of the action - sure messaging isn't cheating
It's the repeated ignoring of your boundaries by your partner. That just undermines your trust. Maybe she does disagree with you. But she should discuss/work through it with you, not just avoid the confrontation and carry on |

Once she disrespected him the 2nd and then 3rd time then yes its deceit and akin to cheating on the OP.
OP that guy is a snake and needs removing from the your lives ASAP.

I could never trust someone who disrespected me three times but ultimately you’ll have to work out whether you can trust her going forward. In my view she cheated, he’s a snake but she is the one who is supposed to be committed to you! |

"As someone who is sometimes the third person in these situations I would always respect the boundaries and rules of both of the couple and if it was causing any kind of issue I would gracefully withdraw from the arrangement."

I can see sometimes it can relax and enhance your partner. Was this just a random meeting or did the guy contact you?
Just to be 100% clear Mr. P have you ever had any type of messages that Mrs. P didn't know about as in kik, snapchat etc. or any unknown meetings or sites that you've met or suggested meeting. Are you definitely totally respectful to her and have been throughout your time together.
I've usually found that the louder someone shouts it's because they've more to hide.
Just make it crystal clear that you've never strayed or done anything and I mean anything that Mrs. P is aware or unaware of that actually was unacceptable or are you totally loyal and never done anything to make your partner annoyed. Xx |

"O.P.
Here goes........
Firstly no agreement should ever have been entered into. It was a pointless agreement BUT an agreement shouldn't be broken.
I think 'the no private messages' was asked for from either 'fear' or 'jealousy' or 'control' ..... hear me out first...
You are happy for Mrs. P to meet this man alone at a club. Surely you realise that they'd have private conversations there ? Unless fucking in abject silence is their kink.
So what difference does a private message make ?
Do you listen to all Mrs. P's conversations or is it just this man that you object to ? Think about it - there are thoughts going on in your head about this. Either they can meet and fuck or they can't. Your objection , to me, sounds as if you are not truly happy with her meeting him at all.
If I was that bloke .... and I wanted to say something like ... ' I am going to lick and suck your fat juicy tits until you beg me to go down on you then fuck you anally' I would not want another bloke to share the message.
If they are 'getting it on' then flirty or sexy texting before hand might be part of it.
Insisting they don't have a conversation unless you are privvy to it is highly controlling ( in my book ) or maybe as I said earlier you are not really happy with Mrs. P swinging alone.
Bottom line is ..... No agreement should have been broken without someone saying 'this agreement isn't on and i'm breaking it because....
Frankly if my other half did that to me ....... well ..... it's over to you two now."
I think I broadly agree with you, an unnecessary agreement. Unless the sharing of messages is for kink. Not sure that’s the case thought. |
