We've been talking ALOT lately, As our profile says our free time is pretty limited,and unpredictable,his job making it so.The discussions have been over me (her) playing occasionally alone,sending the odd pic to his mobile,so he knows what I'm upto. . Not a running commentary just the one pic would suffice..This IS his idea,but I'm a little concerned it could ruin things,if it's not a genuine suggestion.. Advice please,

If it is not a genuine suggestion, then yes, it will ruin things. But only you 2 know the answer as to whether it is or not.

People play alone, but I imagine they set rules and boundaries first.

I play alone but that is not because of time restrictions, it is something that we wanted to try. My husband gets his thrill from me doing it. He never plays though, we started with mmf threesomes so our wants could be totally different from yours. Our big thing is talking... Cannot discuss dos and donts enough!

I'm married and have a profile with my husband as well. We play alone and seperately and have been for about 3 years. We both enjoy the other person going out and meeting, and talk about it when we get back. It hasn't ruined anything for either of us, our marriage is very strong and it's just fun. Set out some guidelines, try it, and if it doesn't work you don't need to do it again.

It's something we've talked about and experimented a bit with but its not for us. We've realised swinging is something we enjoy with each other.

I (female) have no interest in sex with other guys on my own, only with us both together, i love seeing my partner turned on by what I'm doing and with others. If I met on my own I wouldn't get that, it'd just be sex and would feel unemotional, which isn't for me.

I know others love it though, I think it's something you have to work out together, no one else can tell you if it will work for you or not.

Unless you are both absolutely certain then don't do it. Try separate rooms first, or playing separately at a party or in a club .

This is a hard one, I've been in your shoes and it ended badly! I know it works for some couples and fair play to them. You need to talk, set rules and boundaries, also think about it the other way round.....how would you feel if he met without you! Good luck I hope you work it out!

We did separate before separate rooms at a club. Both worked out great

Communication is key, keep everything out in the open and voice any concerns, most of all have fun

I play alone and my husband loves it as much as I do. You have to be completely honest with each other and yourself to make it work. No hiding anything. It can be a brilliant way to play but can also cause problems if one party isn't completely sure.

Good luck x

I'm aware this decision is ours to make,and ours only. Guess I was just looking for others take on it..and how it's been handled. We've been together for over 20years,and have dipped in and out of the scene for the last 8+. But I'm struggling to get my head round this one . . X

We recently started doing this. Sorting cover out at home for meets is a nightmare so hubby said for me to go out and meet alone. Tried it a couple of times now. I enjoy the freedom, he loves it when I come home and tell him about it.

If you're totally honest with each other and don't hide anything, and if you're both sure it's what you want to do then go for it.

So if you don't actually think it would ruin anything, then it comes down to:

Would this give me pleasure?

Or:

Would this not give me pleasure?

I think you should start with a social! Meet a guy on your own and see how you feel while on the meet and go from there!

If you feel fine and it's actually got you excited then you know for next time it's something you like. If you don't feel right, then you've had a drink with a guy...nothing wrong in that!

Yes that's a good idea, someone you know is always best. I couldn't just meet a stranger on my own.

We have discussed this aswell. We feel that it would be best to meet with people we have played with before rather than newbies.

This is something we've done a few times, mainly with singles but with 1 couple too.

Have always taken pics or video to share with partner. Part of the turn on for us, watching or looking at them together later that day.

Communication is always important but even more so I think when meeting separately.

Oh right thank you.

Op, if he doesn't mean it, it could cause trouble for loads of possible reasons. One thing I will say is if he has made a suggestion and you can't communicate between you in such a way so as to establish whether it's genuine or not you shouldn't go ahead until you can.

Kate had her first proper solo meet on Friday and It went incredibly well.

That said we learnt a lot from it and emotions can run very high.

All id say is as others have said - 100% transparency and honesty.

You can't plan or discuss every scenario, so have a "if anything else happens I'll deal with it like this". Plan.

If that makes sense?

Set your own rules and boundaries. Make sure it is what you both want.

He wants a few pics so seems he is up for it for real.

If you are then get back in touch with me (we have already messaged ) as I only live in Malvern, have experienced of this scenario, am genuine and local to you.

Message me again and let's arrange to meet socially. We can all sort out how genuine this is and either go for it....or just treat it as having a drink.....best suggestion I can give I think?

We've done this a few times when I (John) have either been away or at work. Lyn has also stayed in hotels with a very trusted friend. Have to say it's a great turn on for both of us. We're all different though.

When we first met we both used to play as singles too... We also had some meets since being together where we played seperate.

However now the idea fills me with dread.. and I too worry about it changing the good thing that we have. But on my part, I really do not have any interest in meeting a guy or a couple by myself. as it just lacks that buzz that meeting together does.

I can't believe how many couples do this. We love it too and works for us. First time or two can't be nerve wracking for both but like others have said communication is the key.

When we first got together we said no to playing alone, our single profiles we then used for organising surprise naughty meets for us. As total trust came we decided that meeting others was ok if the other was not able to be there, Clubs only though and not one on one meets. This was for V mainly and I just loved hearing about ALL the details not just a summary.

Now the ideal for us is to play together only (some club exceptions) so we have come full circle. It evolves we may move again. Who knows! What is key is it has to be fun and horny for us both x

my advice is don't do it if you have a good relationship with your partner and spice it up by playing as a couple and couples are really the only " swingers" then that should be all you need if you go out on your own you may find you like it and may like the guy you meet more than you're man and not just that if he cares about you in any shape or form jealousy will rear its ugly head x

Playing alone is negotiated between a couple and has nothing to do with how good their relationship is. Nobody can tell another person that playing as a couple is all they should need or that jealousy is a result of caring about someone. You have entirely misunderstood the type of relationship some couples have I think.

Same here..

The anticipation of a meet and then telling my fella when I get home about how naughty I've been is a huge thrill to us both too.

The one thing will say is that its easy to say what you think sounds horny but until you experience it is the real decider. Communication is the key to making this work and though not in a bdsm relationship safe word still pretty useful. Before and after the meet have a chat and make sure everything was ok. Tweak where needs to be tweaked but also knowing that if when confronted with the real thing both of you know that you could back out especially if with someone you both know and trust.

Have fun and enjoy whatever you do but keep us all updated
