They shouldn't of done that. It is not protocol for swingers, they should of been more respectful.

This is bad protocol on their part .

A knowing smile is inevitable , but to try and engage in conversation is bad form , and I can only guess they were new to the scene or unaware of the correct way to behave .

If they had said "Ohhh fancy seeing you here! Are you going down xyz later for some naughty fun you cheeky girl" and winked, that would have been disrespectful in my opinion.

I frequently smile/say hello to people I recognise. But with no clue as to where I know them from!

And often get people acknowledging me who I don't recognise.

But there is nothing there to read into, or draw conclusions from. It's just normal social interactions.

Clearly you have never been in the company of a nosey in-law.

Aren't you going to introduce us?

How do you each other?

I am no good at making up believable lies on the spot so alarm bells would be ringing.

If I was good at making up lies on the spot I would be working as a politician or a journalist for the Daily Mail.

I think some on here wanna get recognised plastering their face all over their public pics. They might be more receptive and would probably think they are a celebrity.

i'm always split with these situations, i wouldn't be bothered if someone i'd played with/met came up to me in the shops or wherever but i see exactly why folk wouldn't like it and common sense dictates to err on the side of caution and say bugger all common sense is miss described though, it's not very common at all

Wiggles got recognised in our local corner shop, they chatted to her she said hi as was nobody else around. Didn't bother her.

In asda and stuff we just smile, if they say hi it dosnt bother us as it's easy not to mention what we did or where we met.

If a relative or friend notices or asks, we just say met them via work.

Seems many here have no memories of not being a swinger or else live in a city.

We often meet strangers who we have never seen before walk past us and say "hello how are you" its called being polite!

Just because you have a guilty conscience it does not mean other people should not be polite to you.

If they had said something further or referred to meeting you in the club etc., then that would be different but simply greeting you in a polite manner is perfectly acceptable in polite society.

I would have no problem with someone saying a polite hello. I know a lot if people from many places and don't usually remember where i know them from until afterwards anyway.

What i do have a problem with is when someone messages me on here saying "ooh i saw you at xxxx". It's normally someone i've come across through work and that is a definite no-no for me.

I had one guy approach me in asda , blatantly said he was from here but was outside my age range and wished we could meet, he said this within earshot of my teenage daughter and her dad!! Didn't know where to look .. He then got behind me at the checkout and passed me his number saying call me if I want to meet

Wasn't aware there was a swingers 'protocol'... I only meet people who I would be happy to be seen in public with, so I guess that's why it's never been a problem to chat to people when I've bumped into them elsewhere.

Discretion discretion discretion...don't we want to break that view that it's necessary?

We are all here because we feel that sexuality is something to celebrate, enjoy, and indulge in..so why are we still reacting in a guilty "I'm doing something wrong that no one should

Know about" fashion. If enough people "came out", would it become less taboo? Or is that not what we want? Is part of the allure that despite everybody saying "this is normal", really nobody wants it to be?..will it lose it's appeal?

Pondering..

I always say hi to people I recognise, even if I don't know where I recognise them from, and it's the easiest thing in the world if you get questioned to just say no idea where I know them from.

If you spend your life trying to avoid people who might have seen you swinging you'll drive yourself mad x

Lol this thread.

" how rude"

"How indiscrete"

"Have they no manners"

lol^

Me personally, no I wouldn't do it, but not because I thought it would be the wrong thing to do, but more because I personally would just feel too fucking awkward doing it. So I wouldn't.

But lets face it.

If he had seen you, said nothing and then just fucked off, you'd all be stood there thinking your heads..

"How rude of them"

"What a dick, he didn't even say hello"

"What a bitch, she just totally blanked me"

^That's what.

Not really. I've had jobs that cared about my private life before. But my job doesn't come to the supermarket when random people say 'hello'.

You are the last person I would expect to take this stance. You wanted men to get the sack over a wolf whistle. As experienced swingers have posted it just isn't the right thing to do.

We regularly get recognised and spoken to when out & about, mostly from medieval events, but sometimes from clubs or parties.

It doesn't actually bother us, if someone asks, we just say we either can't remember where we know them from, or they're from Dave's work.

I guess so lol I mean most people know me from fab when I go to swinging clubs around the U.K. So I guess those same people would recognise me in normal life ... only ever had it once where someone came up to me in a shopping centre vanilla wise the rest of the time just message

for many people, it's something they choose to keep separate from 'real' life, they keep a distinction between their sex life and day to day life and for the most part seem to be happily meeting others who think the same. i can totally see why folk would do that, and they're not wrong in running their sex lives that way, it's their sex life.

i probably have more in common with you in the sense i really don't mind who comes and talks to me, as you say, i was willing to sleep with them. but that's me, how i like top be, i'm no more right than those who like to keep things top secret, there are just degrees of doing things and we all fit somewhere different on that scale.

My problem is when people say 'there's a protocol to swinging'. No, there isn't. If it's important to you that someone blanks you in the street then you need to discuss that with them before you play 'hide the sausage'.

I mean honestly, a quick 'hello, how are you doing, isn't the weather nice?' isn't going to kill anyone - even if it's in front of your kid. Your kid does not know every adult friend that you have, and does not need to know *how* you know every adult friend that you have.

A nod and smile, a brief hello, something like that is fine for us. Anything more is pushing it, especially if it's discussing meeting in a club, or profile names, or borderline stalker behaviour.

You bump into people especially in small towns etc. I just smile and say hi and walk on past. And I've met people with their non swinging partner. Same applies, smile say hi and walk on by.

It's actually more difficult if you spot someone and try to ignore them. Looks like they've something to hide

You are the last person I would expect to take this stance. You wanted men to get the sack over a wolf whistle. As experienced swingers have posted it just isn't the right thing to do.

No - I wanted a man to get the sack over sexual harassment.

That's a little different to saying hello in public to someone I've had sex with.

Don't have sex with people if you don't want to acknowledge they exist later.

for many people, it's something they choose to keep separate from 'real' life, they keep a distinction between their sex life and day to day life and for the most part seem to be happily meeting others who think the same. i can totally see why folk would do that, and they're not wrong in running their sex lives that way, it's their sex life.

i probably have more in common with you in the sense i really don't mind who comes and talks to me, as you say, i was willing to sleep with them. but that's me, how i like top be, i'm no more right than those who like to keep things top secret, there are just degrees of doing things and we all fit somewhere different on that scale.

My problem is when people say 'there's a protocol to swinging'. No, there isn't. If it's important to you that someone blanks you in the street then you need to discuss that with them before you play 'hide the sausage'.

I mean honestly, a quick 'hello, how are you doing, isn't the weather nice?' isn't going to kill anyone - even if it's in front of your kid. Your kid does not know every adult friend that you have, and does not need to know *how* you know every adult friend that you have."

again, that wouldn't fuss me, i'm ok with folk coming and saying hello...unless they start shouting about that great party or whatever they're welcome to come chat

to some though, it blurs the line, they decide they want that hard line and that's their thing. i agree you ought agree with whoever you meet what stance you take on these things though and not just assume a stance of 'lets blank each other'

i think because so many do take the line that the two things are to be kept well apart that people do take that as a base line and neglect to check what the other persons stance is. it's an easy enough assumption to make i think.

i never check to be honest, if they come up to me some time after, fine, but i just assume not to with others because there's a good chance they wouldn't like it.

"Seems many here have no memories of not being a swinger or else live in a city.

We often meet strangers who we have never seen before walk past us and say "hello how are you" its called being polite!

Just because you have a guilty conscience it does not mean other people should not be polite to you.

If they had said something further or referred to meeting you in the club etc., then that would be different but simply greeting you in a polite manner is perfectly acceptable in polite society.

Amazingly people complain about the lack of common decency and people being rude when you allow someone to pass or hold a door open for someone and they don't acknowledge you. Makes you realise why when you read a thread like this, I mean why say thanks it may mean you've bumped uglys at some point.

Exactly this

If I'm asked 'who is that' it's easily explained away as a colleague, client, someone from the gym etc etc....

" shopping with the Mr today in Asda also with sister in law and got recognised by not one but two people from a swinger club the one guy was in his early 50's and yes he watched us in club and other guy was fit and he played with me both gave big smile and said hi how's things ? Omg didn't know what to do so replied yes good thanks.. picked up broccoli and did a dart for another isle some idiot recognised me in m&s one day and followed me round saying are you really _londiedd?"

This ^^ is where the line has been crossed imo. Saying 'Hi' is one thing using your username is another. A discreet 'leave me alone you twat' springs to mind!

If I'm with anyone and this happens, I just explain that they are on the same online forum as I am and cut them dead.

I used to work for a menswear store that did hirewear and I had a guy in who I had played with to pick up his hirewear for his wedding

Neither of us knew where to look and his fiancé was insisting he try the outfit on !! Most uncomfortable half hour of my life !!!!

Funnily enough about a year later he popped up on another site and we got together again

"I frequently smile/say hello to people I recognise. But with no clue as to where I know them from!

And often get people acknowledging me who I don't recognise.

But there is nothing there to read into, or draw conclusions from. It's just normal social interactions."

Exactly what's wrong with being friendly it's not like openly talking about sex is it x

All very well having a 'swingers protocol' but if only a few veterans adhere to it, what's the point! If we were given a copy, I doubt we would even read it.

This actually happened to me this evening.. We both (she was with a female friend) adopted the knowing smile approach.

Respect is an acknowledgement, discretion is not making it obvious.
