firstly thank you to all those that made the night possible..(fantastic night)
but.. as it was my first time at the meet we where a little suprised on how many ppl didnt come over and say hi or just introduce them selfs .i dont no do u need to earn your stripes to become part of the pack. i dont mean this to be rude or to affend but we wasnt the only new couple there and this point was brought to our attention a few times through the night. now how is it we can stick naked pic up and say funny and dirty things to each other in chat but we cant shake hands or cuddle to meet face to face .....isnt the reason we all went was that it is called a "social nite"this is not a bitch this was an oberservation .come guys next time get off ya asses and go talk to strangers i meet some fantastic ppl there and had a great nite but i wished id meet u all ........once again this isnt a bitch or an attack so please no nasty comments. put ya self in our shoes us new commers .... have a nice day lol |

As u know ozzy i did cum n say hi n also introduced u to D from nina n D and took D around everyone n introduced him to everyone as hes never done a social either ......
i think at the end of the day its up to ppl themself to go around at socials and introduce themselfs to ppl but do know it can b daunting if uve never been to one before i guess it just depends how out going u r or how shy u r .....
but for my social in july im going to ask ppl to try and sit beside ppl they dont know rather than their friends as this way everyone gets to meet new ppl
and maybe even playmates for the future xxxxxx
luv jacs n stallion

I can see where you're coming from but we mingled & met quite a few people for the first time. I suppose these nights really are what you make of them. Some couples have already chatted on-line & use the socials as an initial meet opportunity, so they tend not to mingle much. Others tend to treat it as a get together with old friends, rather than meet new ones & still others use them as an excuse for a piss-up! lol
but so far we've found everyone to be warm & welcoming,
S&C xxx
Ps. Hello from us! |

I was a bit of a social animal meeting loads and loads of folk for the first time and still didn't get round everybody.
Although being a Swingle Male you never actually know if folk are OK talking to you or not!
Waves to everybody !
Rock. |

If I had another pair of legs I'd have got round the room faster!
Seriously I tried to chat and say hi and hug as many people as I could to make them feel welcome and more relaxed.
No matter if it's the first or fifteenth social attended, nerves are the same for everyone it's what you put into it that determines what you get out of it.
Lots of people there said "Hi Laine, chatted with you in the room" and that was it ice broken...friendships made, I was recognisable as I have my cam on my face whenever chatting on site.
I for one would like wee name badges to wear so that I have more of a clue, many have usernames, profile names and real names to confuse me with and if they never show a face in pics or on cam how are we supposed to guess!
Thanks to all old and new friends who made the social such a happy event xxxxxxxxxxx p.s. I was the skinny one in the black dress pink shoes and under Larry for the press-ups. |

i agree with laine. name badges would be a good idea. i for one when at a social is very shy (mrs hedo lol no mr ) and find it very hard to approach strangers and say hi , i seem to get all tongue tied and embarress myself.so if there was name badges you would at least know who you are talking to and it wouldnt be so nerve wracking.well for me anyway lol |

The only trouble with name badges are venues don't know what we do as a lifestyle choice. Can u imagine us all wearing name tags........strange looks inside the venue from staff and the smokers going outside could possibly get hassels from passers-by. Name bagdes not a good idea but that just my view. |

As this was NOT a social and labelled as just a night out, Larry and I didn't feel the need to introduce anyone to anyone else. However, there was, on occasions, when we knew that the person(s) arriving were new to the social side of things we did ask them if they wanted us to introduce them to people. Ozzy, I do believe that we asked you and your wife if you wanted us to introduce you around and you both said no.
Also, as you will have seen from last friday night, Larry and I were incredibly busy. I didn't get the chance to speak to half the people there once they had walked in the door. In fact, I think Larry and I barely said more than a dozen words to each other by the time the night came to a close and most people were leaving.
I do hope that you had a good night even though you feel you should have been introduced to people. Unfortunately, there is only so many things a person can do at a time and unless we are asked at the time there isn't much we can do to address the issue after the night.
As fife says, if you want to meet and chat then you have to make the effort to. |

It was our first time also attending a night out with evryone,knowbody knew who we were and although Spicie joined in with everything i myself felt kinda lost as i knew nobody,thankfully cumplaywithme took me under her wing and introduced me to loads of wonderful friends.I at least got lucky and had a ball getting to meet everyone.We didnt sit down all night as we never had a seat but at least standing by the buffet was a great place to make conversation! |

Well, I for one was sober as a judge and more nervous than a nervous thing holidaying at Nervous Heights in Nervous-ville. Ended up having a great time though! Felt a bit like taking a plunge into the unknown, and did feel a bit strange at first with all these people you "kinda" know, but the nerves did start to disappear (probably around the point I was accosted by Mrs Kemea and Mrs EK, you naughty, naughty girls... :-0 )
Thanks to Jacs, got introduced to almost everyone there - very intimidating, but was soon made to feel at ease. It would be impossible to spend time chatting to everyone you wanted to chat to (Joosi! Fifelass! Scorps!), but spent an enjoyable few hours in the company of Juicy and Spicey, Jacs, the Kemeas, MandT, and EK Couple, to name but a few. Oh aye, and View as well
Hope to get to a few more parties, WITH Nina this time, and get to know even more of you.
Once again, congrats on a great night Lil and Larry!

Well it was the first time for us going to a 'social'. I have admit i was very nervous going into it. As we all chat in the chat room, which is really handy to get to know people, but you never 'really' get to know the people you talk to until you meet them.
Before the party i kinda made an ass of myself thinking that Jo (JandS) would recognise me when i said hi as i waved to her at the bar of hotel, but it took a few seconds. But once she realised i felt a little embarrased but hey ho, got roll with the punches,
The night was great, we fell in with ekcouple and had a chance to meet lil and larry prior to it kicking off.
As people arrived we kinda just introduced ourselves to people. But i have to say that on more than one occasion people came upto me and said 'i know you' or 'mr kemea' or 'kev'.
i kinda feel that nights like these are what you make of them, you kind need to out yourself out there to introduce yourselves to people..........
We noticed that D was by himself so the Mrs Ek and Mrs K just grabbed him and dragged him across and if i remember rightly while the ladies danced round hand bags, me,d and mr ek danced round our beers lol
anyhoot great night had by us and i think a lot of people, thanks again Larry and Lil
Cheers
