"Been thinking, we have a few great Fab friends that we’ve met on this site and we enjoy each other’s company. It is effortless to do Vanilla things with them as well as Fab things. Got me to thinking, why then does it not seem to work in reverse? We couldn’t do Fab things with our Vanilla friends at all! Is it possible that our Fab friends know us better than our trusty long term Vanilla’s What’s your take on this? " I get what you mean, i guess to an extent it scares us, the thought of in any way revealing our swinging side to any friends/colleagues even in the slightest way without realising. I laugh at myself if for instance a non-fab friend comes out with a bit of sexual inuendo, suspecting sometimes with my practiced poker face that i either have selective hearing or maybe they think im quietly shocked,lol | |||

It would be your "vanilla" friends who would be there for you. If you think otherwise you are deluded, it's that simple. Tend to agree re the term "vanilla", just like "fab friends", both are bullshit and have been adopted on here and accepted as fab speak.

"My best friends of over 35 years know nothing of this part of my life. I'm sure they would accept it because it's me rather than understand it. I'm also sure they wouldn't be completely shocked as they call me their "social butterfly" & I've always been a little 'wilder'. The support I've needed & greatly received recently, are from people I've known a few months through fab. Kindred spirits? Who knows, but I'd happily introduce some 'fab friends' (& have done) to my vanilla life, but as already said, I couldn't do the reverse x R " | |||

What you are really saying yourself without saying it is that your "fab friends" are not really friends, they are acquaintances that share a similar outlook on sex and you couldn't care less what you do or say in front of them because essentially they don't matter!! If they have a problem with it, you move on and find another "fab friend". You don't do that with real friends. Don't for one second think that if one of you became ill tomorrow you could rely on your "fab friends" to rally round for help and support! It would be your "vanilla" friends who would be there for you. If you think otherwise you are deluded, it's that simple. Tend to agree re the term "vanilla", just like "fab friends", both are bullshit and have been adopted on here and accepted as fab speak. I think lots of people prefer to speak that way on here and about the "lifestyle" and being swingers rather than just admitting they are on a sex site!! I would hate to think in my life if I ever had an emergency I would have to rely on someone I had met on a sex site" Wow - what a statement. Completely disagree. | |||

"Delving back to the original topic, we’ve had experiences of both and so far (touch wood) haven’t had our fingers burned in terms of our vanilla friends thinking we’re weird deviants. It’s far easier doing “normal” activities with friends you’ve made on Fab such as going bowling or cinema, even though the night before you’ve seen them shagging on their couch. But we’ve also brought a few vanilla friends into the kink/swinging scene as we tend to be open about our interests with our closest friends - so often their curiosity gets the better of them and can tell based on the questions they ask if they are open to exploring. " Great post - thank you x | |||

"I meet folk from all walks of life with an open mind. To be honest ive had wilder sexual encounters outside fab Go you - vanilla has never quite satisfied us hence how we found ourselves here lol vanillas a term I dont agree with for the same reasons folk tend to view themselves as elitists because they made a profile on a swingers site. In my mind people are people irrespective of having a profile. this isnt aimed at anyone just an observation ive made over the yrs Respect your decision ; we are fairly new here so vanilla is a term that we are familiar with, it’s certainly not meant derogatory at all in fact we are very Vanilla in our day to day life, we just find it strange that we can chat to our fab friends about anything at all sexual or non yet there are many things we would never discuss with our closest friends. It hasn’t occurred to us that would happen x That's because it's easier to chat to strangers about any sensitive or taboo subjects than people who are really close to you as you fear they will judge you. What you are really saying yourself without saying it is that your "fab friends" are not really friends, they are acquaintances that share a similar outlook on sex and you couldn't care less what you do or say in front of them because essentially they don't matter!!

I think lots of people prefer to speak that way on here and about the "lifestyle" and being swingers rather than just admitting they are on a sex site!! The reason I’ve came back to fab is the fact my real friends as you put it weren’t there for me when o needed them and was really ill, normally it’s me holding everyone together and no one has ever really been there for me when I needed them, on fab the friends I’ve met have been on the other end of the phone to listen to me and message me asking if I’m Ok because they are kindred spirits, count yourself lucky you have true friends like that but there’s not many real good friends like that anymore because people are selfish, some folk don’t even have families around them for support, but yes for the most part people find it hard to open up to close friends particularly about relationships, having an off time with a partner or another friend have a moan about it to another friend and suddenly you sense the animosity in the room Whenever they’re together but one friend wants to tell the other they are a count and be the protector of you but you’ve spoke to them in confidence ! People are scared nowadays to rock the boat so many different ways to put it but true friends would never really judge your choices in life they would accept them some might even embrace them if you’re scared to tell them then perhaps you don’t trust them as well as you think That's really sad I agree, your "real friends" weren't really friends at all. But mine are. I don't claim to be a swinger, I'm on a sex site, same as everyone else on here. " You’re on the wrong site......in my opinion | |||

"Been thinking, we have a few great Fab friends that we’ve met on this site and we enjoy each other’s company. It is effortless to do Vanilla things with them as well as Fab things. Got me to thinking, why then does it not seem to work in reverse? We couldn’t do Fab things with our Vanilla friends at all! Is it possible that our Fab friends know us better than our trusty long term Vanilla’s What’s your take on this? " On your last point, fab friends like any if stick around long enough do know you way better than non-fab friends, its a part of your life you tend to keep from family and others, so i guess its that part of you fab friends both readily accept and recognise versus the hit or miss of pondering if non fab friends would be consistant friends no matter what. I dont agree with this, "its a sex site" so treat everyone as flimsy unreliable people because they have made themselves available for what? Sex only? That works both ways really. Its the spice of life, variety, if its spontanious fast exciting meets with folks you hardly know but instinctively like, or folks that both float yer boat and you just click along with instantly and become friends, thats great, thats swinging either way. | |||
