just been reading some profile,s found one that say,s they do not like going on "room meets" as they have there everyday friends for that. We think everyone here has everyday friend,s aswell but can you really talk frank to your everyday friends! and let your hair down.............we have been on a lot of social,s "room meets" and have arranged a few ourself,s and they have allways been great night,s out . were you get to meet new people put face,s to names. Mind you some people do not like mixing in crowd,s which is fine there choice but would say to anyone that not been to a "munch" or a social get along to one you never know what new door,s might be opened to the last 2weeks we have been to 2 social partys at other people,s houses and they have been great......met some really nice new people to add to our long list of friends.
Mind you some people do not understand the meaning of a "social" Our idea of a social is you go along for a no pressure night out not having to fend unwanted advaces of you might get in the club scene. We have been to club,s with people from the chat rooms and find them great and been to club,s on our own and find that just as much fun.
not really sure what you are asking to be commented on here Tyne but here is my interpretation
I love to go to the socials and munches, i love meeting people i have been chatting to and having a laugh or serious conversation with face to face. I too have vanilla friends but am finding it increasingly difficult to fit them in amongst my swinging social lifestyle.
i have only recently become part of a couple but as a single i was much more comfortable meeting people in a group social situation, gave me chance to meet people i would consider playing with in a relaxed social environment with a view to making arrangements to meet at a later date.
i will point out this is not the only reason i attend socials and munchs, i have made some damn good friends on the sites and i go to see them and have fun and a catch up, swinging for me has so much more to offer than just play, this may not be everyones take on it, as i said this is purely my opinion.
the thing to remember is each to their own
anyway rambling nowlol

yep earthy think you have just said what we tried to say and we agree fully.
I am still not sure what you are asking?
not asking anything just saying if you not been to a social or a munch give them a try
i personally think they are great, but its not going to be everyones cup of tea, some people are not comfortable in social group situations, whether its a play situation or a purely social event.
there are all sort of people on the site looking to get all sorts of different things from the sites, some will never go to clubs, some will never do socials or munchs, some will never play at all and are here purely socially, some may just meet singles or couples and are not looking for anything other than pure play.
at the end of the day it takes all sorts and people will only do what they want to do which is fine, makes the site what it is.

Thats how I read it, you were surprised to find someone saying that they don't go to socials etc because they have other friends for that and you feel they are missing out on a bigger part of things, which is probably true, however I don't do socials, munches, call em what you will for the reason you've mentioned in your second paragraph which kinda excludes me (my own doing) from a big part of the sites activity. Its another 'each to their own' but all in all the social activity the site generates is, for a lot of members, a usefull thing.
agree dave not knocking people for not going to social,s for what ever reason think we saying people should give social,s ago......but there again there a lot of thing,s we not want to try but like you said each to there own,
Well as for us we have met some lovely people at munches, some are never as they seem, some are far nicer, some sadly it has got to be said are just plain nasty and thats not the looks were talking about.
On the whole though we enjoy going and meeting people.. not as much to have more fun with as such but as suggested to have a social no pressure giggle with, its surprising who turns out to be fun.......
So much effort goes into making these nights for us all we agree people should give them a go at least....

I love going to Social's and Munches as well.....
And I have to say that it is refreshing to be with people where I can have a snog and a grope (over clothes obviously!!) of someone's arse and it not be construed as I want to shag them.....if you see what I mean....it just means I like them and feel comfortable to flirt with them...
Social's and Munches are also great for getting to know people and just generally having a good laugh....
If you haven't been on one then I highly recommend that you try it!!
aye northy see you at the pinky3 (pinky3 is a gathering in the gay end of newcastle on the 29th of dec) look in lets meet up for that post.....
had a great time at them but one where the male half of the cpl thought social ment it was ok to grope nearly every cpls female once bad enough a few more time gets a bit risky specially with mrs north tasty left hook ,but why should it come to this and spoil peoples night out because of one persons failure to to know the difference between social and a club type meet ,putting mr tyne in a position of taking the person to one side and explaining that a lot of people were getting rather annoyed at him ,ill say nothing more about that, the difference on the tynes is they do know how to have a good time and if any contacts for meets are done on these nights out all the better but are rather happy to have arranged a good night out and people have enjoyed them as most did on this certain night when things had been sorted out,so really i myself know what is said in this thread just that tynes are discreet people thats the difference because ill would tell it as it was . any cya ya 2 at the pink 3.
I couldn't agree more, we know socials are a non sex event mainly (but if anyone pairs off thats fine also), we know how to enjoy ourselves also and love nothing more than a night out. What I couldn't understand was Tyne's random 'outburst' on people who have in their profiles that they prefer to do otherwise.. like I said its a personal choice isn't it? As long as everyone enjoys what they do then its fine. At the end of the day what people put in their profile about their preferences should be up to them and them only and not be critiscised for it. We were let down a while back by a couple we saw as personal friends as well as swinging friends and that and a few other things made us go along the line we take now. Anyway someone had asked us if we were going to the pink3 but we're away for a few days then. Enjoy your night out have a few :beer: for us.

ok just to put things strait first of it was not a "random outburst" it was simply to tell people that have not tried social,s to give them a go........and yes what people put in there profile is up to them. As for friends we have some really good friends swinging and other but for some reason jaymar you have took this thread as a go at you well your very wrong it is simply what we said it was just to encourage people that nervouse shy whatever to try social,s so far as we are concerned end of......
well dont think tynes having a go at any one at all ,he is trying to encourage if any thing at all , but theres another bit to this me thinks???
reckon its done its thing
)we know what they mean ,they had been to meet and to clubs and had the door opened to them for the social part of the scene ie little socials and munches ,over the last few months there has been a few in the n east, where we have been at the same time if fact once even stopping at hotel tyne(nice bed poo service ,asked for breaky in bed , got it,mental note ask for plate next time :lol: ) had a great time at them but one where the male half of the cpl thought social ment it was ok to grope nearly every cpls female once bad enough a few more time gets a bit risky specially with mrs north tasty left hook ,but why should it come to this and spoil peoples night out because of one persons failure to to know the difference between social and a club type meet ,putting mr tyne in a position of taking the person to one side and explaining that a lot of people were getting rather annoyed at him ,ill say nothing more about that, the difference on the tynes is they do know how to have a good time and if any contacts for meets are done on these nights out all the better but are rather happy to have arranged a good night out and people have enjoyed them as most did on this certain night when things had been sorted out,so really i myself know what is said in this thread just that tynes are discreet people thats the difference because ill would tell it as it was . any cya ya 2 at the pink 3.
nope hadn't thought you were having a go at us just replied in general as you had said you had read 'a few profiles' I said in my end bit I was happy if you were happy if you remember? You keep repeating you have made some good friends, I think its great I really do... and I still maintain that... just enjoy yourself and relax no-one is having a go at you, just putting own viewpoint over. 
haven't a clue what your reply is about... are you having a go at me or advertising the Tyne's??? Did you read my last thread? I have left it that all was ok and I agreed no one was having a go at anyone!! You have completely lost me.. but since you mentioned it, I used to go into the chatroom, still do now and then and I've always got on ok with you. I'm over the moon that the Tynes are doing well and I'm over the moon you and they are good friends. I haven't a clue where you are leading to but I can say not everyone would agree with you and at that we shall leave it. Your opinions have been noted. Cheers now.
