Any other couples becoming frustrated at arranging meetings, after lengthy phone and text messaging ( and in one case meeting for a couple of hours at a bar, before committing to meeting to play) and then finding one of the other couple is overcome with jealousy and can't cope with the idea of their partner with another man or woman?
Why are these people using this site? Are they just inadequates? Or do they get off on the attention?
We don't meet with couples so we are probably not the best placed people to give advice in this area. But it would seem to me that the people you describe are probably new to swinging and nervous, undecided, or merely in it for the thrill of the chase. Perhaps you would be better served if you looked for a more experienced couple?
why always also check out any Shrep they have and if meeting use the Shrep 'meeting' facility
Two helpful observations
We are careful - in both cases recently we spent hours on the phone
In one case we met for drinks previously
No boundaries set at all - just really childish and immature behaviour on both occasions form the half of the couple who initiated contact and was 'driving the train' as it were.
Lack of class lack of courtesy!
Lengthy messaging almost always means someone just getting off on the messaging. Just don't get into it without at least saying hello to the lady on the telephone. Meeting in public, however, is fair enough, and you can never know how people will feel until you meet. It does seem though, that going to a club would probably be a much more suitable option for you if you are seeking action at the time.
Don't pass up on going to a social, it's worked for lots of couples in the past, and it's an opportunity to meet without trying to pre-empt an outcome.

As the adult market develops it is diverging along social lines. So the different sites cater for different markets. The same is true of clubs. If you think a night at Ab-fabs and a party at Little Liaisons is basically the same thing then you would also say a week at Butlins in Skegness is a holiday just the same as a week at Sandals in Antigua.
For what it's worth your experience here has been our experience. So we are winding up because you waste too much time with people who love the fantasy of swinging. Fantasy is the beauty and the beast of the internet. The fantasists here can get as close to swinging as possible without actually doing it. This clearly gives them a thrill (why is not for us to speculate upon). This is great for them but not much cop for those whom swinging is actually a reality because they don't tend to have a little badge saying 'Not serious'.
Given the claimed membership of this site is it clearly works for many. So as with everything in life best to find what or where works for you. There are alternatives to here that are not without their pros and cons. However, we find the ratio of pros to cons is much higher, and we've had more 'joy' from them in every sense of the word than here. That is as much a reflection of our needs and wants as what this site offers, and is not intended as any criticism of the site or those who find it delivers to their requirements.
Good luck. We hope you meet some genuine people you actually want to swing with in due course.
