Friendship problems

By *layalong OP Couple over a year ago

Edinburgh

My so called best friend is obsessed with my husband, and I'm really uneasy with it all. She's waaaayyyy over the top touchy-feely and has said she'd love to have Sex with him. Now I'm at that point of just ignoring her and coming ascross as rude which I am not. But.. I'm supposed to be into swapping so why is this doing my head in so much?

Maybe because she's not a random she's someone he sees all of the time so he could develop feelings from her

She's not talking about a swap she just wants to fuck your husband

She's your best friend and it's highly inappropriate

I'd feel exactly the same

She seems predatory. I'm guessing if you met a random couple and the wife was acting the same it'd put you off?

You feel like that because she's your bestie. It's one thing to say she fancies your hubby but another to touch him!

Is she aware you're on here? She might feel her behaviour is ok if she is. If not, I'd be having a quiet word with her. Actually even if she is its clearly making you uncomfortable so I'd have a chat with her anyway

Is she a real life friend or a swinger friend?

Yes I know they intermingle, but me and hubby have a no one from our real lives rule about swinging. Random strangers fine, if we become friends with them, still fine. But not someone we know from outside our swinging world.

She's our only real friend who knows what stuff we are into. She's single and mingling with anyone who'll have sex with her. I've felt sick for weeks thinking about her all over him. Maybe I'm being unreasonable for feeling this way. The flirting, the looks, the holding him tight while squeezing past. Yuck

Unacceptable. Just because you guys are in this lifestyle she has NO RIGHT to act like that. U need to tell her and tell ur husband that it isn't on and he also needs to tell her it isn't on. Miss C. Xx

Maybe you should explain that just because you swing, doesn't make it open season on your husband. You choose who you play with, and you've chosen not to play with her, so she should respect boundaries.

I know people not into this lifestyle think its a free for all fuckfest but it isn't, and maybe she needs to be educated.

Maybe she wonders why you'll play with others but not with your best friend? Perhaps you need to spell it out to her that friendship is precisely why you won't play with her but play with other people.

Maybe encourage her onto this site so she can get her fun elsewhere without going after your hubby?

Well you may still get her back! A lot of people outside the swinging world seem to think everyone is 'fair game' to swingers - just point out kindly but firmly that that's not the case - and get your husband to do the same - then leave things to cool off for a while - and you may get your friend back!

I presume she knows you guys are here if she's close? Its almost as if the overriding thing is the word itself "Swinging" You swing, therefore you are fair game no matter what your preferences are.

H had issues with two guys that know, they hit on her one suggesting the obvious the other an mff with his wife, this despite both being told we wanted a female playmate only.

She just spoke quite bluntly to them & we are still friends..

H would probably start hitting on her till she feels uncomfortable and says so, then she'd point out its exactly how you feel about the Ott flirting

That's if she's straight of course

If she's single, you have to consider why she she is being so up front about it. I'd be considering things she could be saying that you don't know about to other people about having him i.e. on a bet. It could make it very awkward when out in public. What you choose to tell people is one thing, what you do with people is another. You should probably just tell her one night when he is out of the room to ease off and stop teasing him as you don't like it. It might put a dampener on things for a moment but she'll know where she stands.

Your feelings are valid.

However perhaps you need to think about why you don't like it with her, but you're ok with it from others.

For me it's not in the vein of swinging. I would never allow Mr C to go a pub for example and 'pull' a woman and go home with her. I would never do that either. Swinging is something we do together, and separate at times, but for me it isn't the same.

No....but she CAN voice her feelings. Relationships are give and take. And I'm very sure the lady's OH WON'T go there with this woman but he needs to know that his wife is unhappy about her behaviour. If she doesn't tell him how can he fix it?

I'm not condoning her behaviour as I would definitely feel the same as you

Like someone mentioned above OH & I have a no playing with anyone we knew in real life before we got involved in this scene

But as your friend knows your lifestyle choices could she think your husband is fairgame & that you'd be ok with that, does she know you had boundaries in respect of swinging

She could also be getting offended thinking why haven't I been invited into your bedroom when I've made it clear I'm interested & I know you play with others

I think you need to sit down & have a chat with her as it's not worth ruining a good friendship over

Yeah, she's overstepped the mark - it could be that she genuinely thinks because you swing it's open season on him, in which case if you sit down and have a chat and explain she should be appalled to have upset you and totally back-off.

Or, she could be one of those women that has no concept of loyalty, no respect for other people's relationships, and is being predatory - in which case she needs to be told in no uncertain terms to back-off or find a new friend.

If she's your best mate, surely she can tell you're uncomfortable? In which case she is no friend of yours. If your husband is also uncomfortable, take a united front and tell her bluntly she's overstepping the mark. If your husband is ok with it, you have a husband issue more than a friend one. Either way, time to start talking.

"I think she knows. I've hardly spoke to her, and when I have it's been very blunt"

You need to tell her straight though! Although I once did this with a fab female friend of mine and asked her to follow the girls code of conduct and stay away from an ex of mine at a private party but she couldn't help herself and went there anyway, we then had words before she went back for a second helping. Didn't speak for a long time then held out the hand of friendship for her to do it again by taking him to a club party that I was going to and had the barefaced cheek to ring me before hand and ask if I was ok with it as she didn't think I would be there! So in my experience best to be honest and explain what you want and hope your friend is mature enough to respect you're feelings.

Should you have to push him? If he is aware of how uncomfortable this situation makes you feel where does his loyalty lie, with you or a friend? How would he feel if the situation was reversed and one of his mates was coming onto you in a way he found unacceptable?

You can't dictate to a friend who she can or can't see. He's an ex, that means he's a free man to do as he wants, as your friend is a free agent too. Move on from him.

You can't dictate to a friend who she can or can't see. He's an ex, that means he's a free man to do as he wants, as your friend is a free agent too. Move on from him.

Surely there's nothing 'childish' about having sex.

to summarise, a vanilla friend who you have told about your swinging lifestyle has started to flirt heavily with your husband. We don't know if your husband is encouraging, humouring her or ignoring the behaviour. We do know that you are very uncomfortable with it all. As the swinging is about you as a couple, you as a couple need to explain what your wants are as far as this friend is concerned. If you don't want to invite her to play with you, then she needs to understand that flirting with your husband is damaging your friendship. She can then make the decision as to whether she carries on with her behaviour or whether she goes back to being a friend. If she carries on with her behaviour, I would suggest that the friendship is over. I suspect the friendship is over anyway, as it appears you have lost trust with her and possibly respect too.

"I think she knows. I've hardly spoke to her, and when I have it's been very blunt

Can't say I have that code with my friends. They have the freedom of choice, I'd never try and dictate, they know I support them in their decisions, even if I don't totally agree.

I know exactly where you are coming from. I would say 'tell her how you feel' but then I would need to take my own advice! How does your hubby feel about the situation?

If this happened to me, I would talk to my partner and have him decide. His decision would inform my decision. We have had a couple of ex try to get in there between us. My OH doesn't see it happening, but I am very intuitive and I do. When we talk about it, he sees it. He's pretty oblivious to it and certainly doesn't encourage it. Nothing has happened and I know nothing would. It's about trusting your partner to do the best for you guys. None of my friends would ever do this. It wouldn't be any consideration, but then again, none of them know we swing

I've only skipped through so sorry if this has already been covered

It is perfectly normal for you to feel the way you do

It is also normal for your husband to be acting the way he is, she is your friend and he probably doesn't want to be caught in the middle of what could be a big fall out

It seems to me a lot of miscommunication is at play,

She thinks your swingers so it's fair game, that is understandable as she's not a swinger so couldn't possibly understand the rules and etiquette of the lifestyle.

I think you should invite her over and have a frank discussion between the 3 of you, explain to her why swinging with friends is off limits and why she caused embarrassment when she was being openly amorous with your hubby, there's every chance she'll be mortified once she realises how far she's overstepped the mark.

In order to keep her friendship after this knock back you could offer to teach her more about how swinging works and maybe even offer to accompany her to a club if she thinks it's for her.

If she can't handle the situation then it's better to lose a friend than your husband.

I suppose there is a lesson to be learned here about who we tell about our secret lives, not being judgemental at all, it's just that I know how very tempting it can be to want to tell people.

The best of luck to all three of you as you work out this awkward situation x

"This is the perfect example of why you never tell your vanilla friends about your swinging life.

They will feel left out and not good enough to be invited into your bedroom....

Now to help you with this dilemma..... send me her number and I'll take her off your hands

You can have her mate x

I think this is sound advice. I personally couldn't do it, I have a vicious temper when unleashed and I would be worried that it would erupt uncontrollably. I will continue to avoid, glare and seethe.........

Please post on here the outcome when you reach it.

"You've made the mistake of telling her that you swing and now she thinks anything goes.

Tell her to back the fuck off, your relationship, your rules."

I was thinking that, maybe because she knows you swing she really does not realise what she is doing is upsetting you

Personally id tell her that all because you swing you like to keep sex and friends separate

If she carrys on id tell her to keep away

She may have though you was dropping hints by telling her maybe she thinks this is what you was after, give her the benifit of the doubt first

Sadly in my experience, a firm no and an explanation of them overstepping boundaries only creates more of a challenge/game and they come back harder. I suppose it depends how genuine your friendship is. I think it's down to the male in this situation to back them off. It's him that's the target of her attention and he needs to say no rather than you.

Completely justifiable. I have some friends who were vanilla but who came into the scene and we have never played with each other's love interests or each other. I can't see them in a sexual way and I just wouldn't feel comfortable. I had one boyfriend who kept pushing it and he ended up being abusive. If people don't respect your boundaries there will be troubles ahead. It maybe that she wants to go into the scene if she isn't already, but you need to make clear it's off limits, and if she continues I'd rethink your friendship. You shouldn't feel the way you do now, and you know because you're a swinger that it's not simple insecurities

"It's because it's personal, swinging isn't personal..."

this - and if its making you feel incomfy and it was in a swinging situation you would stop it - so id say stop it more so seeing as it s your friend

You OH needs to CLEARLY state that she has gone too far. The next time she fawns over him, it's his job to move away/tell her to stop, not yours.

H would probably start hitting on her till she feels uncomfortable and says so, then she'd point out its exactly how you feel about the Ott flirting

this is the answer. Just get flirting with her yourself make her uneasy as you feel.

We had a friend once who was bleeding on how she was Bi so a bit mate of ours, when they were in the loos, as girls do in pairs, went for it hands down the knickers and what not to call her our on it. She shit herself and embarrassingly admitted she wasn't.

You crack on to her. That'll get shut of her.

You are very patient in this case . You shouldn't feel like you do! Follow your gut feeling and tell her to back off in very commanding manner . She will know you are not joking then .

But also your husband should tell her to back off too and show her he is not interested . You are a couple and you need to deal with this together !
