"Yeah. It's been very destructive for me. How so? Have met people where swinging didn’t work for them. It's taught me I'm only worth a fuck." A shame you feel that way or had that experience. Sometimes single guys ( even couples ) get the same feeling ie ‘ their just hired to use, abuse and throw away. Swinging can be a mind set and different people have different mind sets to what they want out of the lifestyle. | |||

"I don’t think you could be more wrong it’s brought me and my wife closer together with ever play we’ve had " Totally agree with this! We both think sex is totally natural, wanting it is healthy and that it isn't shameful to want new or different partners occasionally. We're both highly sexed and would probably have had hidden affairs by now, but with swinging we can bet totally open about our needs and we usually fuck other people with the other one of us watching and participating. Yet we still have our best sex alone together. What is soul destroying about that? | |||

But you can also find a lot more that you weren't expecting. And not all of it good. | |||

I've learnt i don't get decent sex without everything else, but men don't want me for the everything else." It depends what you mean by ‘everything ‘. Some need a ‘spark’ connection, some need ‘love’. Others need no connection at all and in fact have the best sex because there’s no connection it is just physical sex. If someone needs a ‘love’ or very close emotional connection for great sex then swinging is more than likely the wrong thing. However there are great FWB which are exactly that. Great friends and great sex. It could also be you just met the wrong guys too. Which is a shame. At the end of the day swinging is not for everyone. | |||

"Funny how its mainly single 'swingers' criticising it I'm not a swinger and I'm not criticising it. If you're not a swinger then how has swinging been destructive for you?" Past vs present tense She was a swinger and decided from experience it’s not for her. Hence she can pass comments from personal experience. | |||

"I think there is a great danger of swinging being emotionally damaging to those engaging in it, both those in and out of relationships. For instance I have a friend who hosted swinging parties for years, and she always had female partners crying in the ladies loos because it was not what they wanted. Casual sex is fraught with emotional pitfalls and those who are single have even less support to be able to deal with them. We are all playing with fire and need to accept that." It's certainly not for everyone, people that are high in agreeableness struggle to say 'no' to their partners and will go along with things to try and avoid conflict. Kind of a problem in their lives more broadly than just sex though. | |||

That being said, I think you can always find someone who fits your niche, even on fab. It depends on who you decide to engage with. Some can be detrimental to your swinging experience and some can be amazing | |||

"I’m not a swinger & I don’t find all this soul destroying, there are people that do and I can understand their reasoning. I do find though, indulging in nsa sex over the years isn’t as fulufilling as it once was, possibly because I’ve become somehow desensitised with time." Agreed, I found myself gravitate from nsa fun to the more sensual aspects of fun. | |||

"Hi For some it may be soul destroying however within the 'swinging world' there will be numerous psychological responses to thier actions. I would suspect most would feel europhic after a swinging experience, perhaps even slightly addicted? Some will feel depressed, worthless, guilty - those from certain religious backgrounds may respond differently to an atheist or agnostic. I would be concerned though if someone who wasn't in sound, stable mental health indulged - the outcome could be very unpredictable not just after but during too. (Stable is the key word here). Whatever, I do feel the best way to air your concerns or not is to talk - good communication is the success to most things. That includes posting/commenting in this type of topic on here perhaps?

Perhaps it's because singles don't have a deeper relationship to fall back on as couples do? Real sex is more than a shag ... it's emotional, engaging and, dare I say, spiritual too. If we stay at the physical level then we haven't really experienced what sex is. | |||

We never treat anyone-couple or single - as just an accessory. It’s about everyone having fun. The more you put in then the more you get out. Emotions are good. Having emotion does not mean you fall in love with someone. It can just mean your turned on by them. Of course others may prefer different. | |||

You will just have to take my word for it. The point of my argument it’s to de bunk your ‘just an accessory and better than a wank’ statement. I’m sure some people are treated just as an accessory or view it as better than a Wank. As said, ( fortunately ?) our experience seems to differ from yours Be that swinging, FWB or polyamory and we have experienced all three so know the difference. And to reiterate. Even in swinging all participants can be on the same wave length even if for a short time and a one off meet. | |||

"I’m not a swinger & I don’t find all this soul destroying, there are people that do and I can understand their reasoning. I do find though, indulging in nsa sex over the years isn’t as fulufilling as it once was, possibly because I’ve become somehow desensitised with time. That's a really interesting observation Roxy. Perhaps it's because singles don't have a deeper relationship to fall back on as couples do? Real sex is more than a shag ... it's emotional, engaging and, dare I say, spiritual too. If we stay at the physical level then we haven't really experienced what sex is." | |||

"God...why are you people even on here then....let alone post on the forums.....you are just trolls who wish to piss people off.....it is true....you are not swingers as swingers would be less judgemental and pessimistic.... " I agree, it feels like some people just get off on winding people up because they have no life. Like someone said earlier, most negative posts are coming from non swingers | |||

"Yeah. It's been very destructive for me. How so? Have met people where swinging didn’t work for them. It's taught me I'm only worth a fuck. Hopefully you don't mean that. No-one should judge themselves by their experience on Fab. Of course I mean it. Why wouldn't I judge myself on my experiences, all of them, including fab? Should be less judgemental of everyone, including yourself....just relax and go with the flow and take and enjoy every day as it comes......you do not know what sorrow and heartache could be just around the corner x Eh? You don't know me or what I've experienced. Seriously. And you don’t know me....which is why I am saying be more open minded and less judgemental of everyone....you don’t what problems people have just by looking....seriously " But I'm not judging!!!' I'm the one being judged! Geez.... | |||

But I guess we all have a different perception of what people mean when they express themselves. When does explaining ones position become a stance of defence? | |||

"I think Jim makes some excellent points , and by and large I agree with him . The very essence of swinging is nsa sex . Couples have the rest of what makes a relationship with each other , so invariably they will often seem cold or clinical compared to singles in the scene . And since the couple will develop what gives them an extra buzz on top of their already satisfying sex life , singles may feel like an accessory when joining a couple . But that’s what swinging is ! It isn’t real ! It’s a bit of fun now and again , it’s an itch that needs scratching . It’s by no means meant to be the be all and end all , nor is it designed to be there for people to find true love and happiness . It’s simply an opportunity to experience hedonistic fun . Well that’s what we think anyway .... and it works for us " Making very good sense as always! ^^ | |||

Swinging is primarily about excitement for us, which would diminish if we did it too often. That's not the same for everyone, but i think it's true for most people. " We probably did it too much in the year that swinging really kicked off for us. I think we went to about 10 parties that year. We couldn’t get enough of it. It never lost its excitement but we found that the time it took in our life prevented us from doing other things that we enjoyed. From that perspective it was not good. So pulled back and now enjoy all the other things in our life as well as swinging. However if time allowed we would play a bit more than we do. Only once have we made the mistake of getting involved with someone who made us feel demoralised, but that was in the early days and we’ve learnt from that. Mrs | |||

"I don't have to do something to perceive the damage it can cause to people, I merely have to be observant in their company. I don't think there is a need for all this aggression - it is obviously a high risk activity in a lot of ways and being forewarned is forearmed, that's simply logical. Some people have a great time, others are destroyed by it - no-one being honest should try to deny either, the evidence is all around us. Some marriages are enhanced, others are destroyed - it is a high risk activity, period. Some singles 'on the scene' have a great time, others end up being deeply damaged by their experience. Only when we accept these facts can we look dispassionately at what works, what doesn't, and why - and maybe help some of the people who are struggling, or prevent someone being burned, or even losing a marriage." | |||

"Yeah. It's been very destructive for me. How so? Have met people where swinging didn’t work for them. It's taught me I'm only worth a fuck. A shame you feel that way or had that experience. Sometimes single guys ( even couples ) get the same feeling ie ‘ their just hired to use, abuse and throw away. Swinging can be a mind set and different people have different mind sets to what they want out of the lifestyle. " This is the difference between swinging and sex. meaningless sex is fun for a couple of times, but if there is no real connection... This is why I am fussy who I meet, I can get sex anytime! | |||

" I have to confess it jarred a little bit with me when you said that some swingers were being defensive. As it wasn’t obvious to me and some others what the defensive comments were, and it wasn’t explained which comments you felt were defensive, it came across as a sweeping statement. Sweeping statements that are not substantiated often get people’s backs up, even if the person saying the statement didn’t intend to cause upset. I mean when you said that, I was left thinking does she mean me? I am one of the people she thinks is defensive? I don’t think it’s your opinion on the subject matter that has upset people. Mrs | |||

" That last point is a good one actually I really don't attend clubs these days (nor for some time have I) on my own. I only go to clubs if I have arranged a meet at one, or occasionally in the company of a single girl. I find the whole business of hanging around at a club as a single male, just hoping that I might be 'chosen', rather unpleasant and even a bit 'sad', personally. So, unless something is prearranged I prefer to spend my social time doing other things, or just socializing in a normal pub/club. | |||

" isn't it ? lots of sex make you body less responsive , and swinging is soul destructing ....feel free to express your view about the matter xxx i love various opinions " It can be for some I think but you can’t know till you try it I suppose and you find reality is somewhat different to the fantasy. As people say ‘it’s not for everyone’ I found it did affect my physical ability on those occasions where there was little else other than fab and it became a bit obsessive early on. I think I was becoming desensitised to have any sexual stimulation. I realised this after a rather heavy workload kept me occupied for about a week with not even a thought about fab or sex being too busy with more important things at the time. After it all settled down and I had some ‘me time’ I found I was reinvigorated, physically and mentally. I still find that even now. For me, a larger part of the time, I need other things occupying my mind and body and fab and fun is where it should be.....a small but important part of me to enjoy a pleasant unexpected or very often planned excursion. Well that’s how it works for me but we are all different so the experience of ‘swinging’ is very much down to the individual. As it should be I guess | |||
