Need some advice from experienced swingers.
I'd like to have a chat with my partner about swinging but don't want to offend her or put her off with the first words that come out my mouth.
What's the general advice and best tips for starting a conversation like that?
Think its all been said, better than I could
We started by discussing our fantasies, then we play acted them out for a long time before we joined.
I agree with fellow members, and I think it's pretty much all been said. You have to discuss it together and approach it together...I haven't read your profile but I suggest that you go to it and make sure that it's saying things you would like your partner to read. Then you can tell her that you've been fantasizing about whatever and show her the site, at that point you're no longer just another guy cheating on his partner....and I'm sure if she's offended by you being a member then you'll be able to make whatever decision is right for you.
There is a lot on TV about swinging, from the short scene from Dirty Harry to something like Eyes Wide Shut, or was it Eyes Tight Open. Anyway plenty of chance to drop comments if you pick the right movie. There really is not need to get Behind The Green Door, if you just want to start a conversation.
Once you get to the part which refers to swinging you can make a comment. You can take it from there. Good luck too you both.
The way it seems to work with most couples is that they arrive at the same thoughts round about the same time as each other. then its more or less easy to springboard into swinging.
in other cases there is a period of thoughtful consideration and deliberation as each comes round to the other's way of thinking and a reasonable arrangement is struck.
if you have already forged ahead and been getting into your own world of sexual adventuring, then you will need to do some doubling back. if your normal sex life is still okay, then you could find a point of origin whereupon swinging may be possible.
But if she hasn't got the slightest interest in it, and it really isn't in her nature; then it just won't happen.
But if your relationship has already gone beyond a certain point then you probably need conventional guidance if you want to restore what you had.
maybe one day you will just come straight out with it and ask her, and she might just say " i thought you'd never ask!'.................or maybe not
..............and just because she says yes does not mean that she will enjoy the fact as much as the fantasy.
