" I was always taught that marriage constitutes a willing agreement, based upon love between a man and a woman, who have made the decision to spend their lives together, to honour and support one another, to maintain a bond of love and trust so they can build a better life together, possibly even raise a family " There's nothing in there about only having sex with each other though.... maybe it's possible to have it all? | |||

"Personally we are not made to have sex with one person for the rest of our lives. We set up home with our "mate".... Raise a family etc But the sexual desire for others doesn't go away.

"This isn't an affair site?? Websites don't destroy marriages, people destroy marriages. You haven't got a sexy brain have you OP? It's just a clever name. ![]() I just want to clarify before this thread continues that I was not referring to this site, the title refers to a statement I read on an affair sites advert - I hoped my use of inverted commas would have established that, apparently not. And in order to give myself a 'clever' username, wouldn't I have required a certain degree of cleverness to conceive it? | |||

"I find it easy to stay monogamous in a relationship. Did all my shagging new people in my younger years and it has no appeal to me now.

"I guess if there was no demand then such sites wouldn't exist? I don't think sites destroy marriages - the parties within it do or one does, if it ends. And people change, life changes. At 20 you might have thought it would be a forever thing but it didn't turn out that way. I've never had an affair - even many years ago when I was unhappily married. But - I can understand how affairs happen. In my 20's I judged people badly for them - age has altered my views. Until you walk a mile in someone else's shoes / you don't really know why they are doing what they do. I'm lucky that I've never been cheated on within a relationship, as far as I've known. If I'd ever been cheated on my view on affairs may be different. Sarah " Thankyou Sarah, probably the most intelligent response I've read so far.

"I understand your point OP, but I must ask have you ever been married? Your description of marriage in the op is somewhat 'perfect' and is wonderful as an ideal but in my experience and those of approximately half of everyone who does take the plunge, it doesn't work out like that. I agree that that the marketing is unsavoury and lacks taste but then at the same time many people are unsavoury and lack taste." This is why I've never married and it's not something that I personally find necessary. | |||

I agree that that the marketing is unsavoury and lacks taste but then at the same time many people are unsavoury and lack taste." No I've never been married, I've never eaten a Kobe burger either but they do look nice. If you read my statement about marriage again, you'll see I don't make any direct claims about it's perfection, only the ideal, and my disappointment in peoples so frequent inability (though I appreciate we're all fallible, I know this all too well myself) to work toward that ideal. I agree with your thoughts on bad taste too, rather like the fact that death is inevitable but that's no excuse to play football with human heads. | |||
"Firstly yes, I enjoy watching porn, hence my encounters with such adverts. Does anyone else find these affair sites utterly wretched, horrible little things? I mean, perhaps I'm being a little naïve here, but I was always taught that marriage constitutes a willing agreement, based upon love between a man and a woman, who have made the decision to spend their lives together, to honour and support one another, to maintain a bond of love and trust so they can build a better life together, possibly even raise a family, I was taught that marriage is a wonderful and beautiful thing, and even to my (sometimes excessively) analytical mind, it still is. So why is it then, that not only do these sites exist, they actually portray marriage as some kind of bad, cloying little thing that you'll feel so much better for being rid of, you know, so you can feel sexy and ALIVE again, like lancing a nasty boil. Didn't you enter into yours willingly, or your own volition? Didn't you look into your partners eyes, didn't you see love in there, didn't you feel it too when you said 'I do', and made that commitment to them?" OP, I'm really not too sure what you are on about. Firstly Fab Swingers is not an 'affair' site, it's a swinging site. There are various definitions of swinging, but they tend to be along the lines of consenting couples looking for sexual experiences in addition to their marriage, usually by a partner swap, or by inviting an single person to join. An affair is when someone goes behind their partners back, and which is not the focus of this website. With regards to your description of what marriage should be ie loving, honouring, supporting, maintaining a bond, building a life together, raising a family. Well, in what way do you feel consenting swinging couples don't achieve those values? I think you've misunderstood this site if you feel the general ethos is to portray marriage as 'bad' and that 'you'll feel so much better for being rid of it'. In all our time on the swing scene, mixing with a variety of happily married couples I have never got the impression that Fab is portraying marriage negatively. Finally, with regards to your last paragraph. Yes we did look into each other's eyes, yes we did see the love in there, and feel it when we said 'I do', and ,add that commitment. But what has that got to do with our mutual decision to explore our sexuality by involving other people? If you personally think that swinging is unethical or immoral, you are very much entitled to your opinion - an opinion which is probably shared by the majority of non-swingers. But if that's the case, why on earth are you on this site? We're pretty happy with our marriage. With have a full life, or which swinging is one of the things we enjoy. | |||

Yes, I get your point but with all due respect I don't think you can't understand a marriage dynamic until you've lived it. Until you've eaten the Kobe burger it's all just an idea you have about its taste texture and how satisfying it is. It seems an awful lot like you're 'not making any direct claims' about a great deal of your op... Normally I have a great deal of respect for your posts and comments but I think on this point you're making a great deal of noise about something you know nothing about.

"We have been part of the swinging lifestyle for 10 years now and after much consideration we decided that our marriage was strong, built on complete openness, trust, respect and empathy for each other; we had and continue to have a fantastic sex life and loving relationship and see this lifestyle as an extension to our relationship that we dip into as and when we choose. Over the 10 years our relationship has gone from strength to strength and swinging has been a part of that. We would never recommend anyone to start this lifestyle unless they have a strong relationship, with both partners being comfortable with the decision. Really don't understand the affairs comment as swinging is about openness and therefore affairs shouldn't really be part of the lifestyle, although I appreciate that people will always abuse a situation if it suits their agenda. Therefore for me this or other swinging sites cannot be held responsible for the personal decisions of individuals who chose to use it inappropriately. There are affairs and sex sites available for such liaisons. Anyway a little waffle but hope the point came across.

"Op some marketing maybe tasteless encouragement to cheat. But i doubt anyone who wasny going to cheat anyway would do so based on a couple of adverts. As for marriage being a happily ever after...no chance marriage is different for everyone. But id bet money for most its a commiment thats takes work, compromise and communication. Just like any relationship the vows dont entitle the rest of the world to judge all of a sudden. So they have vowed those things before the eyes of god. Marriages and people change. A lack of affection and sex and expecting the other half to put up with it to me is breaking the love and cherish vow. No to have and to hold there...So why is that ok to break? I say im married here cause its an easier definition of how i consider my relationship. But when i signed up for this relationship i did not agree kissing would stop or sex would be annually. I would be made to feel unattractive and rejected constantly etc. Im not justifying cheating as i have permission but i still consider myself a cheat. I do however see it as one of many possible consequences for lack of a physical side to my relationship. And thr blame for that sits equally at my partners door as mine..." I think this is extremely well said. A lot of people forget that marriage is a two way process and are quick to hurl blame at the so called 'cheating' partner, when that partner may have been denied sex and affection, through no fault of their own. What is someone supposed to do in a sexless marriage - be celebate? | |||

No one died from not having sex and apart from anything else if you are for e.g overworked, over busy , over stressed, under threat..... the feelings for sex are over ridden by simple survival. Sex is often over ridden by hungers.... There are greater needs. No one feels horny running from dinosaurs. " There are indeed greater needs than sex, and sex is not usually a desire when basic survival is at stake. But when life is comfortable and everybody is happy and healthy, the moral question is possible or reasonable to be celebate? Many can, but others do feel they 'need' sex, for want of a better word. Personally I don't think I could be celebate, however hard I tried, but I'm very lucky that I don't have to. | |||

"Firstly yes, I enjoy watching porn, hence my encounters with such adverts. Does anyone else find these affair sites utterly wretched, horrible little things? I mean, perhaps I'm being a little naïve here, but I was always taught that marriage constitutes a willing agreement, based upon love between a man and a woman, who have made the decision to spend their lives together, to honour and support one another, to maintain a bond of love and trust so they can build a better life together, possibly even raise a family, I was taught that marriage is a wonderful and beautiful thing, and even to my (sometimes excessively) analytical mind, it still is. So why is it then, that not only do these sites exist, they actually portray marriage as some kind of bad, cloying little thing that you'll feel so much better for being rid of, you know, so you can feel sexy and ALIVE again, like lancing a nasty boil. Didn't you enter into yours willingly, or your own volition? Didn't you look into your partners eyes, didn't you see love in there, didn't you feel it too when you said 'I do', and made that commitment to them?" What a naïve and narrow minded view point. My wife and I love each other, she is my soul mate, my friend, my lover, my world. She feels the same. We both enjoy sex and treat each swinging session as pure physical enjoyment. Nothing else. We dont start getting luvy duvy with anyone, just enjoy the fun, release, orgasmic pleasure of sex. That's all. Where is the problem? | |||

I think this is a good point and would make a great thread, but is best moved away from this one as its moving away from the OP. Nice to have lots of views out there though. Have fun xxx | |||

"Personally we are not made to have sex with one person for the rest of our lives. We set up home with our "mate".... Raise a family etc But the sexual desire for others doesn't go away. And it's merely just that "sex". If people talked more openly to one another about their needs/desires/fantasy, then maybe affairs would be a thing of the past? " Fully agree, monogamy doesn't work that's why so many people cheat. Sex and love are two different things. | |||
