This post is quite a milestone for me.
I have now been a member of Swinging Heaven for exactly 1 Year. Yup, today is my 1st Anniversary - and what a year it has been!
I have celebrated my 40th Birthday - an event that was organised for swingers and not my offline non-swinging friends & family. Which surprised me, to be honest, as I had planned a lot of things for my 40th year but those plans didn't originally include swinging and yet the actual celebrations ended up revolving solely around swingers and the swinging scene. So I guess swinging, and Swinging Heaven, has become the mainstay of my life. Could I stop Swinging? - No, I don't think I ever could.
Regarding myself and the way this past year has changed me, well, my confidence levels have increased exponentially since becoming a swinger. I no longer have any fears about approaching people in any given circumstance and I have learned how to flirt outragiously - something I would never do before I joined SH. That is what this lifestyle gives you - the confidence to talk to people without worrying if they fancy you or not.
I have met some great people via this website and made some good long term friendships into the bargain. I have learned about myself, my sexuality and even picked up a trick or two sexually - which has pleased some people I hope ;)
Included in this list of lunatics are:
Postie - you are by far the weirdest fecker I have ever met and your humour is exactly the same as mine - you've had me in stiches m8... tks!!!................. X
Cisco - me mucker from across the pond. We make a good double act pal - you line em up and I'll execute em - deal? ................. X
Julie1964 - always a pleasure meeting up with you and chatting in the chat room honey. You've kept me sane these past few weeks, thank you.
Lorraine - from New Year's Day to this we have always got on and I value your friendship immensely.
david48 - what can I say m8 except - ya loveable sweetheart ;) can't wait for the honeymoon in Accrington Stanley.... or was it Cleethorpes??
equi-sparkle - I have thoroughly enjoyed our tete-a-tete's and you have given me loads of good solid advice when I've needed it - and one or two truckers on the M5 might want to say thanks too ... hehehe (private joke).
shell - tks for the advice, support, friendship & comfort.
Mids & Newt - luv ya both loads n loads and I'm glad I match-maked ya.....hehehe, you truly deserve each other - and I mean that in the nicest possible way sound like Kenny fecking Everett there, do ya want me to do the leg flip thingy too?
Mr & Mrs Linnets - maggie and bob are two of the nicest people that I have ever met and if you were to look for a swinging quintessence they would be it for me, next time ur 'passing through' D-unstable can you stay the whole week and not just three fecking days ... hehehe
And a Special Thanks to my Three SH Guardian Angels - Vicky, Voddy & SexySteph - love you loads n loads ladies.
There's loads more and please don't be offended if I haven't mentioned you here. You all, collectively, are a fantastic bunch of people and I have had some great laughs with you - and I look forward to loads more too.
Relationship wise, I will always be eternally grateful for two very special ladies that have come into my life since joining SH. Blonde & Leedslass.
Blonde - we have had our ups and downs sure, but I will always be your friend whenever you need one, and I think you know that babe. We connected in a way that I have never experienced before and I want to publicly acknowledge that my life is significantly better BECAUSE I met you. I never realised that a long drive on a dark wintery December night would lead to golden sunshine. Friends forever Sam. xxxxxxx
Leedslass - even though we only knew each other for a very short time before you became ill, it was enough time for me to know that in you I have found a person that is as close to a perfect match as I will ever find. Your razor wit, intelligence, your smile and the sound of your laughter strike chords in my heart that will reverberate throughout eternity. Get well soon Gorgeous and let's go have some fun for the rest of our lives. xxxxxxx
It is to Leedslass that I dedicate this - my 1000th post!
.......... and so on to another year of fun, laughter & frolics with my friends here at SH!!!
