going over my head....

May 17 2014

i was wondering if anyone else had these feelings.... we went to an event the other night...everyone was lovely...but i can find it a little hard to relax and mingle...and tend to be a little shy about "getting into it all"...(usually a few drinks help though...) i found it though,that the very same thing, that excites me..i.e. sexy people getting off their gear and get dirty..is the same thing that also scares me away... there were a few i was quite attracted to...one guy in particular...to the point that with hubby's blessing we invited him back to ours...but while my man and i were busy talking, he got busy with another lady...(which is great, lucky him, i know it is sometimes hard for single guys in this scene...)thing is ..after that i didn't really feel all that special anymore...and kinda didn't want to be the next in line....(even though at the time, when we were fooling around, it felt very sexy, sensual and ..well..HOT!..) my question is...am i over my head, thinking i can just make this all about the flesh?does anyone else has conflicting feelings about swinging? on one hand the whole idea of being free and just go by how i feel at the time...give into the attraction my body lets me know i feel, in no uncertain terms...is so liberating and exhilarating...but on the other hand seeing how people can go from one stranger to the next, kinda puts me off... maybe it's just the nature of parties...and perhaps they are just not the thing for us... but my question is...has anyone ever experienced feelings like this...and if so, how was it dealt with in one's head?is this an ego thing, as a woman....wanting to feel desired and special...or am i just messed up a little in the head, and out to take a step back from it all?

    It's the nature of parties. Everyone is special. Not everyone goes from one person to the other though. I don't for instance.... I usually stick with the friends I am with on most occasions even though my friends may go from person to person. But that is how I am, I suppose I am not really a swinger. Or I haven't learnt to really let go yet!! (Probably that. Lol) going out to breakfast the next morning and all swapping stories is fun though. It's meant to br an night of being a bit wild and free... So the ego thing needs to stay home. Swingers are team players. :p

    Acceptance is a key thing here... Acceptance of how you feel. :) - Posted from rhpmobile

    Maybe it's just me, but it sounds like you want to connect to your lovers on a emotional level as well as their bodies, go with whatever your comfortable with, rather than what you think you should or shouldn't feel ? Tam

    I used to have very similar feelings.. It has changed as I've been to more parties and my confidence has developed also as I have got to know people in the scene. I think it is changing from ingrained cultural values to a completely different set of "swinger" values. It takes time to be able to do this in the drive to the party! I also think as you get to know people they just become your "friends" and it's not about ego or competition it's more like just going from friend to friend and hanging out for a bit. Probably what happened was the guy saw you were talking to your hubby and the night was short so he politely went and "hung out" with someone else and would come back to you after. It doesn't mean he thought you were any less hot. So never take it that way! I think the best way to get over it is to get out there and make as many friends as possible in the scene: male and female and know that it's all about fun, freedom and being able to be you. I hope this is of some help. Xxviolet

    The party/event thing is not for you... Maybe you could look towards hosting a single/couple, that way you do get to be the special one... Hp xo💋 Because you're worth it...

    How many different females did your husband 'play with'? And why is it ok for him to show other females attention and yet you do not mention that you had any negative feelings about that? In my opinion, you may have issues with control. How do I know? Because I am a control freak! You are at a party, eyed off your play thing, tried to capture him for yourself but he did not fully comply with your implied wishes. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Miss Incredible you have articulated it so well. "It doesn't mean he thought you were any less hot. So never take it that way." Wise words. Yes OP. I am new to this and find the things that excite me also scare me too. Follow Violet's advice. Get out there and make friends in the scene. It certainly helps with the nerves being comfortable around more people on a social level before you play. But most importantly. Have fun with it all ;) Good luck. - Posted from rhpmobile

    That is why I don't think it is my scene. I am not against it and I wish I had the personality that would be open to it but I don't and I accept that. I especially couldn't do it with someone I cared about, I would be too jealous a person. I think you need to assess your motivation for going before you go again.

    thank you guys all for your comments and advises.... as some of you were suggesting...i perhaps need to readjust my perception of what parties are all about...suppose we are more used to meeting up with individuals/couples on arranged meets...where , if the connection is there in person, him/her/them will be the only playmate for the evening...while i realize now, parties are more like a tapas restaurant...catering mostly to people who wish to sample a little bit of many different flavours.... that being said, i also appreciate the comments of those, who suggested that i am out to learn to accept my own feelings, whatever they are....i am sure a lot of it comes down to being relatively inexperienced in the wonderful world of swinger's functions...lol thanks again for taking your time, to read my post...and for offering valuable, new point of views, that certainly helped to widen my own horizons....

    As a guy who prefers the intimacy of one on one situation. I understand where you're coming from. That's not to say I'd reject the swinging scene.. It's something on my bucket list for sure, just never got around to it... Yet ? I think one of the things that held me back is my perception of what it might be like .. What you wrote is part of my perception.. Is it right for me ? Do I really need to react with people I don't know ?... So I think for some of us , it's a fair question... Jay

    Quoting 'tamworthguy46' Maybe it's just me, but it sounds like you want to connect to your lovers on a emotional level as well as their bodies, go with whatever your comfortable with, rather than what you think you should or shouldn't feel ? Tam that is most definitely the case...unfortunately that desire of mine tends to scare off a lot of people...they confuse my need to feel desired with romantic feelings...or just think i belong to the " too hard basket"... i only do it with single guys...it seems when it comes to couples or especially girls, i am more than happy to play with little previous interaction, providing we have that sexual energy flowing between us when we meet...i think perhaps the reason for that is my fear of "feeling used"...had one or two MFM encounters, when i kinda felt like a live fuck doll instead of the object of someone's desire...for some reason i feel, that if someone cares about me , as a person...they are more likely to care about me and my needs as a lover too...plus i find it harder to let my hair down, and be that dirty little plaything i so enjoy, with someone i know nothing of...
