What are your thoughts and feelings about socializing with your play mates? Do you like the social side of mixing with like minded adults or do you prefer meeting up for one reason only?

    we tend to not 'socialise' with the people we play with...but i think thats mainly due to how 'time poor' we are.....may change...may not....

    What's not to like about it? If they're good company and you all click you already share a common interest :p, you don't have to stay friends with everyone but having regular partners brings down the STD risks.

    Socialise with couples we play with, as our desire is to have friends as well as friends with benefits that we can regularly catch up with, not just the one nighters.

    It screams Drama to me.... Play dates are just that..Play dates! Friends are friends. Play Dates + Friends = Drama - Posted from rhpmobile

    And it's pretty easy with couples to work out who has baggage before you take it to the friendship level. In real life we meet a lot of people but we're pretty selective about who we take in as real friends and that is true for here too. We've met some very cool people where we would never have crossed paths in life any other way.

    Social side of stuff is just as important as fun side of things social apart of it is finding out if chemistry is right for all parties and can lead to foreplay n sex if chemistry is good n if friendship on going its always a bonus of course - Posted from rhpmobile

    I genuinely like the person/people, we get along well, have fun and banter - then yes I'm all for it. It can make for great public displays and get the juices flowing...ummm so to speak But if it's someone who you just want to gag and ride, well then no. I base it on how good their company is regardless of what we do with our bits

    Depends on who it is I guess. I've almost always been friends with people I've been intimate with. It's only weird if you let it be. That's my opinion anyway lol- Posted from rhpmobile

    We have met a totally awesome couple that we have as much fun( Ok I slightly jest) socially as we do if we get our groove on elsewhere..I think it can enhance the whole experience as long as it's all above board! Apart from that even our closest friends are somewhat "dirty dogs". I save all our vanilla socialising for the schoolie/P and C kind of stuff!!!

    We really enjoy the socializing side of this lifestyle, being with like minded people can make or break an evening. For us the chemistry is also required in the mind and we find that the socializing side adds to it.

    It's great because you aren't held back in your conversations about your weekend! As long as you all don't live in each others' pockets, I don't see how things could get dramatic.

    We are new to the swinging environment, however most people that have expressed their thoughts, mainly within the forums, seem to be normal types of characters. We would like to make friends with other couples first, if sex becomes a part within the friendship then that would be it's part for friends to explore. It all certainly sounds like a good times to have. Finding these friends more than likely will not have so much to do with sex, just knowing that there is a chance for sharing it is on the table, is a pleasant thought.Mado,Tara xx

    I do enjoy socialing with some couples my partners and I have met. One sexy lady on holidays invited me to go shoe shopping the day after our foursome!   I love the sexual banter between like minded friends.
