Ever ran into someone you know while swinging

June 28 2016

We have been swinging for a while now and have never come across anyone we know. Just wondering if any one has? What was it like? Did you still play etc? - Posted from rhpmobile

    I have run into a fellow staff member at a meet n greet. I have also had a flirt from another staff member and his wife. I don't have pictures but they did. Didn't reply to the flirt and a wink and a shush was agreed to at the m n greet. - Posted from rhpmobile

    We have not come across anyone that we know (from our "normal" daily lives ) at any swingers parties, clubs etc. If we did, we are not sure what we would do. Certainly would not play with them nor continue playing in the same room / venue. We feel that ones daily , personal life, and this swinging lifestyle should ideally be kept separate. - Posted from rhpmobile

    We recently relocated from Darwin and swung while living there.... Quite often saw people out and about that we recognized from websites, Mrs Adelaide did have 2 of her patients email us looking to play and the answer was a no for work/ethical reasons however we did have drinks with one of them on a unrelated night and she had kind of worked out it was Mrs Adelaide ... haha But Darwin is small city and the possibility if you where not careful was very great..

    A few years ago, we exchanged a few messages with a couple local to us, but when we finally exchanged pgs, the female of the couple was a teacher at our children's school, our parting message was, " we think it's best if things don't progress any further!" Every now & then we cross paths & we exchange smiles, as we know each other's secret!

    However, I live a very straight "normal" life in a conservative small country community (very small) and several years ago while attending a Saints and Sinners ball in Melbourne, bumped into someone who I'd worked with in our shearing shed. We both embarassedly recognised each other and moved on. Also I have had some one from nearby admit they saw me a a swingers party ( iwas unaware of this until they told me some time after the event) and as there has been no backlash in the community I presume he was as unwilling as I am to widely admit to being in the life style and hasn't spread the word. So party on, enjoy life, and neither flaunt or deny your life style and generally the world will accept you.

    I've been emailed by people I know through work, and from other parts of my life. Very awkward. Especially if it takes a few messages for the face pics to be opened. Was looking at a party (previous) photos, to decide whether I wanted to go, and saw a work colleague, leading me to decide not to attend their next one. As yet, I haven't run into people I know at a party (fingers crossed that doesn't happen). I was at the same bar as someone from RHP, on Saturday night. Only one of us realised it. Btw, your date was cute. *thumbs up* Even living in the biggest Australian city, it can feel small at times.

    I'm a little bit political, and a member of a group I'm in sent me a message here. I told him who I was, and we went for a drink, but nothing eventuated. There was simply no spark. I still see him and I feel no awkwardness at all. A mutual friend however told me he finds it difficult. In future if I suspect I know someone I'll just be avoidant lol - Posted from rhpmobile

    Last Saints we bumped into parents of our child's schoolmate. My response was, "of course it's our first time here." But J independently said, " this is our fourth time." So the cat was out the bag. We arranged to meet for a "serious talk" that progressed a bit further than that! Things are fine between us.

    my female boss and her hubby used to send me flirts. I'm pretty sure I'd told her about the site and it was more of a laugh from her. I'd prod her in person but never in front of her hubby. I didn't think that was appropriate. Nothing ever happened. I've convinced a few ppl to join and one friend to attend a party previously. I think a few more people could benefit from a bit of raunchy sex! - Posted from rhpmobile

    We crossed paths with an old friend of mine from primary school/high school who has since become one of our closest friends. We've also crossed paths with the parents of an old school friend at Pleasure Lounge, and I aslo ran into one of my brothers good friends there. Another couple we have met on here also has children in the same classes as two of my neices. It's bound to happen sooner or later as despite what everone thinks I seriously don't think the so-called "swinging" lifestyle is as underground and uncommon as everyone seems to think. We're still in touch with the couple and remain great friends with my primary school friend. My brothers friend contacts me on FB every once in a while to check what events are on. We don't see it as a big deal, but of course I have refrained from telling my brother of his friend and schoolparents antics lol (although he knows what we get up to). On a side note, we've made great friends on here who have spilled over into our normal lives. Quite a few of my RHP friends recently attended my 40th birthday with my vanilla friends and family and we are the godparents of the child of a couple we met on RHP.

    We have run into people from our non-swinging life at clubs..... we find the best thing to do is take a big breath and walk up and say hello to them. They've always been couples and never any singles we know though. Generally we find that discretion is very much valued on this site and they, like us, don't want it known that they are on RHP or visit adult parties. It does make for interesting "vanilla" nights when they are also there and the talk turns to what couples regard as being adventurous!

    Someone else I know did. I was invited by a couple (different site) for a private event, with some more guys. One of the guys invited, worked in the same career field as the husband, and had technically met him, and they had almost the same network of work colleagues. This was discovered after play, by him using a niche metaphor at one stage, that was characteristic of his job, which led to further questions. Afterwards, the three of them (and me as it happened) stayed chatting about it for ages! And not quite the same thing: I recently ran into someone I met socially just once, over a year ago, as a potential fwb, and at that past meeting we talked in reasonable depth about the scene & my activities. She served me at a supermarket :) (I think that is the answer to: "ever met those you've seen in the swinging scene randomly in public at other times"?)

    And out of respect for the people they are, knowing that we are all there with the same intent and naughtiness, you tend remain friends with these people, but not necessarily play with them. There is 6 degrees of separation so they say, that couple over there, knows the lady down the road, whose kitten went to primary school with my uncle's dog hahahaha...... However, in my case, most of you seasoned swingers may know me by just 1 degree of separation. On a more serious note, I have bumped into work colleagues at various parties/venues. And after having a chuckle at how kinky we all are, it tends to strengthen the friendship bond having the chocolate secrets about each other in common. We have always respected our private lives back in the workplace, secrets remain private. I find that generally, experienced swinger's morals and values, are of a high distinct code of ethics, like an unspoken law. There is an esteemed level of respect for each other. Something that most vanilla people find difficult to grasp, from the outside, as they ask questions "OMG, like er um swining...is it ....is it like....?." The people that do really know...just "know the go" It's all about respect, discretion, integrity and non judgemental acceptance

    Yes and it was priceless. Mr I am single, had a wife, and kids and didn't know where to look or what to say. He's just bloody lucky that it was at work and I am a professional. - Posted from rhpmobile
