Interesting. I'm think I'm the comfort creature type going by that article.

BTDT...swinging was more like a junior high dance than I ever would've wanted to imagine. Lots of talk, not as much action. Lots of nervous wallflowers, of which I was sometimes one. It was a lot more fun in fantasy than it ended up being (with a few exceptions) in reality for both of us, in part because it ended up being more fun for me than for him; neither of us expected that going into it. It was an interesting few months, and I'll never regret doing it. We both learned a lot, about ourselves individually and as a couple. But I've sown those particular wild oats now, and random sex with strangers doesn't hold the appeal it once did. Friendly sex with people I know and can trust? Sure. Polyamory still appeals, if only theoretically at this point in my life.

Dude doesnt even mention the concept of polyamory. *NOT* the same as swinging. Dude should get his head out of his butt.

Yep, me too. Thanks for sharing!

A good summery of many thoughts and prospectives we've made right here.

I think anyone has the right to ask; but it's a partner's prerogative to say absolutely not, and both parties can make their decisions from there, which it seems happened with the Gingriches. A bummer for Marianne, but probably better to know she was married to a cheater than not know. Seems to me, Newt has a history of opening his marriage without giving his current spouse a say. That's some egregiously bad behavior right there.

I like how it's the open marriage request that is going to scandalize everyone, not the serial dishonesty and the hypocrisy. Sigh.

Yeah, like asking after banging his aide for how many months before letting his wife know about it? Dude just can't get it right.
