Ummmm of course Will and Sappho + babies..... Awww bless.
And Angel Chat and Se7endriver.....
The vast majority of SH members don't use the forums so we don't know their stories. Who knows how many people have met their soulmates through the ads? How about a testimonials page?
How about Heather and The Kent Host (his name escapes me right now)
I believe they met at a munch and are in lurve :inlove:
Notice how the men are staying away from this thread....................me and Ice Pie must be the sensitive males of the site.......................
I've made one brilliant friend from this site, who, no matter what happens in the future, i'll always stay in touch with.
I would have posted something but u and ice pie summed it all up for me.
I have also had the pleasure of chatting to female via pm and if for some reason i have to leave the site i will no doubt be keepin in touch with her.
I certainly don't go onto any forum expecting to find a partner.
I also don't think I've really been here long enough to build up a large list of friends I chat to over PMs. One, maybe two.
Neither do i chief but never say never!
But i hope to make more friends from here both male and female.
I think they can work given time and understanding
All depends on who the people are and their circumstances I guess
Can't say I came in here looking for the love of my life, completely the opposite actually, after the last two proper relationships I had I'm ready for a break and fun!
If I did bump into Mr manofmydreams then things would get very complicated for me I think, especially if we both wanted to continue swinging, I don't honestly know whether me, a relationship and swinging would be compatible but I guess that unless I find myself in that situation I will never know.
Happy to be single for now and see where fate takes me............
i honestly don't know whether i'm doing the right thing responding to this thread 'cos I'm pretty damn sure there are several people on this site who sick to the back teeth of my rather public on-off relationship with someone I met through SH. You know when we've split up 'cos I have my posting boots on again.
Like MQ and Lil_Bunny, I didn't come here to find a partner - the exact opposite. Actually i should've quoted MQ 'cos that's more or less how I felt .... crappy past relationships, enjoying singledom and freedom, looking for hassle free fun etc. Plus, I've got far too much to manage in my life already without having to consider another human being and their demands on my time and emotions.
I met someone. We fell in love. We weren't right for each other - for a million and one reasons that I won't bore you with.
i know of a lot of people on this site, for whom this is just a stop-gap or stepping stone to their next relationship but having said that, i don't think this is the right place to be actively seeking a partner/soul mate type person. As many of you said, if it happens great, if not then on with swinging.
Anyone who meets the love of their life - whether through this site or elsewhere - deserves all the luck in the world. It's really hard to find that special person you just 'click' with and then, harder still to overcome all the other problems of fitting into each other's life. I wish 'em all good luck and I hope they're very very happy. :love:
