Its ages since I have done a serious post.. or many posts at all to be honest, but this is something I needed to do.
As lots of you know – we have been quite actively involved in the swinging scene for a while and have always fitted in here as such.
Things have changed lately which have meant that everything has been re-assessed and tongue and I have come to the decision that for now (and possibly not ever ) we are not going to swing.
This decision was made partly due to the fact that we needed to move on with our own relationship and just concentrate on the two of us, it was also partly to do with the fact that things have recently happened that mean that one of us needs to concentrate on making the other feel happy and putting things right. The other needs to concentrate on being happy again and getting over what’s already done.
This does not leave any room for other people. But we have both made a lot of friends on here.
I am aware that there are people on here who never have and never will be swingers and they have been accepted wholeheartedly.
This is slightly different though as we have changed our boundaries – and feel that it may make other people uncomfortable with how they feel they should treat us.
Ideally we would like to still go to social events but just not the “playing” kind,
what I guess I am trying to say is that I am worried that people will feel like they cant come over and say hi to me – as its so much different from last time when they saw me and were lying next to me naked.
I just wondered what other people felt about this.

You're always welcome as far as I'm concerned, WBB. Your happiness (and I include Mike in this as well) is more important than how others see you. Just be aware you have loads of friends on here you can call on, so don't be a stranger. lol :lol:

Hi there WBB - as someone who has never had the pleasure of laying next to you naked but who will always be grateful to you for helping Charlotte and I feel comfortable at our first munch I will certainly still come and chat to you!
As with all things swinging related consent is the big thing here and I would not think that anyone decent on here would assume that because they have played with you in the past they have a lifetime ticket and permission to do as they please.
People change their boundaries and preferences all the time, I am sure you will be just as welcome as always.

WBB, you have a lot of friends on here. Those people will still be your friend whether or not you are a player. Playing - whether you play a lot, a bit, or never - is your personal choice and it should not affect whether you want to come to social events. Personally, I wouldn't want you to leave SH cos you and tongue are no longer playing, and I'm sure lots of people will feel the same too. Your friends are your friends, don't forget that smile
WBB .......... boundries do change but you not swinging does not change the person that you are.
I for one would still come up to you and say hello, you daft thing you. :therethere:
Well I for one, will be shunning you guys. Bloody turncoats. rolleyes
Gonna have to change the name soon to non-swinging heaven. lol
Look forward to seeing you at the next Munch and giving you a big hug. That goes for you as well WBB. wink :thumbup: :lol:
TBH this place wouldn't be the same without you and where's tongue been? We never see him posting anymore. smackbottom
We’ve never met so I can’t come at this from the perspective of knowing you, but I would say it shouldn’t matter whether you are looking to play or not.
When I first came on to the site I was surprised that there were regular contributors that weren’t looking to swing at all. Having been around for a while I can now see why they would still contribute to this site.
However, I think it was Lil Bunny who stated that she was perhaps disappointed that some of the people she thought to be friendly were no longer there when she decided not to swing. Your true friends, as has been shown, will not care whether you swing or not, just that you stick around.
WBB, I cant believe you need to ask that!!..... :shock:
There are people that have been active swingers and then decided to go into retirement, take LittleGem for instance..... Why on earth would people not talk to you now just because you are no longer swinging??.... If thats how they treat you hun then they were not friends in the first place....
passionkiss for both of you

WBB!!! I can't believe you even have to ask this question! Just think of all the different stages I've been through in my year here.
Single fem occasionally playing with single males.
Single fem who'd met someone she liked.
Happy and loved up and not swinging fem.
Heartbroken and not playing with anyone fem.
Got over it fem who played with lots of people.
Poorly fem who would love to play but isn't allowed rolleyes
Did any of my friends here turn their backs on me at any of these stages?? The answer is a resounding "No!" and I can't believe that anyone would treat you or Tonguey any differently just because you've decided to concentrate on your relationship without anyone else being involved.
Stop bloody worrying woman, those of us that love you feel that way because of who you are, not what you do!! I can't find a big hug emoticon right now, but the thought was there lol :therethere:
:angel: kiss
Busty, you'll always be a welcome sight on these forums for these eyes. The place wouldn't be the same without you, swinging or not, so don't you dare go and flounce out of here, otherwise we'll all have to come round and smackbottom :smackbottom: :smackbottom: :smackbottom:
I agree with everything that has been written here.
WBB, you will always be WBB to me whether you swing or not. It won't make the slightest bit of difference. kiss :kiss: :kiss:
Hiya WBB,
:shock: I thought it was your boobs that had written that title! I had loads of useful advice spring to mind! :twisted:
It has been said on here many times, swinging is as much about attitude as it is about behaviour. Tongue and you will still have the attitude, and will still fit in. kiss

Most people have put far more eloquently than I could at the moment.
Thanks for the lovely pm you have sent me .. if you or/and tongue disappeared then we would lose out on a lovely person/people.

I'll still tread on you while we are dancing, I promise lol
It doesn't change a thing, so long as you are both happy. kiss

You stand to lose nothing:
Your friends will respect and support your changing outlook and new direction.
People who can't associate with you on a non-sexual level weren't your friends to begin with.
kiss
:therethere:
Well who would do the Valentines messages if not for you, you silly mare!
Just as long as I can still say "Show us your tits",
then you slap my face (but not too hard) and say, "Don't be so forward!"
then I'm fine with that!
Long may the Tongue and WBB be highly (?) respected contributors around here...

hi well_busty_babe havn't met you yet but enjoy your posts. The thing we like most about the swinging scene is that everyone can be totally relaxed and be themselves. Not out to prove anything to anyone. There are so many diversities within the scene that you will be totally accepted whatever you both want to do. Not swinging yourselves does not make a hoot of difference, the fact that you are tolerant of the lifestyle still makes you part of the scene (for want of a better word). If people don't accept your new boundaries, then they are the ones who should ask " where do they stand " ? Chill out, relax and have fun, a lot of good comments about you both here, hope to meet you at our first munch. :rose:

WBB and The_Tongue,
Fitting in? I'm not entirely sure that i've worked out what that actually means. Perhaps because i've never been very good at it, and so now just go with my own version. Perhaps because i don't find it to be very important to me. Perhaps becuase i just "do" fit. dunno
Whatever your reasons for your change in your "boundaries", are very much your reasons. Do any of us have the right to even question your motives for your decision? No - because ultimately you are making a choice. Being "free sexually" is an all encompassing terminology, it doesn't mean that you either have to swing, or not swing, be in a monogomous relationship, or not. You are free to make any decisions about your own sexuality.
This site pretty much has a policy that showing respect and tollerance for other people, are really the only requirements for being a member. I don't see anywhere anything about having to have a certain kind of lifestyle to fulfill that criteria.
You are two lovely individuals, and i for one would be disappointed if we didn't occasionally bump into one another at munches, social events etc. I enjoy your posts on the forum, your sense of humour (i am of course referring to WBB here :twisted: ), and your intellect. Absolutely no mention of your cleavage. sillyhwoar: innocent
Enjoy this next step. wink
Lots of love, hugs and kisses

PS This coffee shop is still off of the M8, exactly where it always was. coffee
I really do appreciate all the things you have said , I am moved by it and feel all “luved up” at the min. redface
I guess I just feel a bit like – if we had been here and never been swingers – then people would have accepted us as such, but because we were and now are not – people don’t quite know how to treat us – so may keep away for fear of doing / saying the wrong thing. confused
This is not a “ I’m leaving” type of thread..( ffs even if you had all said “piss off” I would have stayed - not one to take a hint am I! lol ).
I guess in a way I needed to just be honest and may my (our) cards on the table and give people the option then to react how they wanted.
I am soooo glad I have been honest about it – especially now you have all been so lovely.
Just remember… I will still be expecting to collect all these promised hugs next time I see you!
:twisted:

One of the best things about SH is that you can be who you are............
So be who you are ! Do whatever works for you and makes you happy........
See you at a social gathering. xxxxxxxxx
ooo you daft bugger............. bloody hell ...........when i see you both next.......... i couldn't give to hoots if you both don't swing ( well i was hoping wink )........ but going to get a smack bum anyway biggrin
You are one of the bloody best gal..and tongue passionkiss

SO WHENS THE WEDDING

Ahhhh - Busty!! Come here and let me give you a great big HUG.
Feel kind of strange saying this as you have been here a lot longer than me - me still being a newbie and all that....... but I would hate it if you decided you couldn't hang around here just 'cos you weren't actively swinging! :cry: I suppose I am one of those that loves the flavour of the forum for the fact that everyone on here is here for different reasons. And I love the social side of this forum just for that - the SOCIAL side.
Please stick around. Please continue to go to munches - 'cos I think you are great fun and would hate to see you pull out completely.
Big virtual kisses to you sweetie kiss :kiss:

kisses and hugs ((( buts that's all your getting! ;) )))
neil x x x ;)
hiya
we haven't met... in fact, we haven't met anyone, but we wanted to send you hug about your post and your decision and say two things.
one: as "swingers" we feel we live this lifestlye and wnat tbe part of this community just as much for openminded, non-judgemental behavior as for anything else. That we can meet and share something as simple as friendship with people from all walks of life, tastes, backgrounds who feel comfortable about who they are is something special.
two: even tho we haven't met anyone in person yet, we get this feeling this is a supportive and loving place and we know you will not lack in support here for what you need to do.
mr and ms ocky.

I see swinging as mainly a frame of mind. If you accept swinging then that should be it, whether you actually participate or not.
From my short time here, we seem to be a group of likeminded (Well not always) individuals, the fact that some of us get physical with others is just an extension of that mindset.
From all the great posts before me, I think you now know that everyone wants you to stay, don't make us beg wink
PS IOU one hug lol
Much the same opinion as everyone else Busty..........it doesn't and shouldn't make a jot of difference.
So do you and tongue wanna come to one of my 'basket weaving' parties...........got some right fancy reeds in just special for it, every colour you can think of boink ....couple of bottles of Asti Spumante with some cheese and pineapple chunks on sticks...should be a riot!
