"To answer questions, play stopped, night ruined and I know it was my fault, which is why I am so pissed off at myself I think... (Goes off to Google "assertiveness training in swinging clubs"). But yeah, also my fault to assume people won't touch without asking permission Never assume! Flames" It's not your fault at all, it's the 95% of single guys in clubs who think that they can just pile in and be disrespectful. We come across this all the time and, on more than one occasion, I've had to threaten physical violence when several No's have been ignored. This is why we pretty much ignore the public play rooms and stick to the couples rooms or the private rooms. | |||

Saying "no" is ok. I agree with what Andykinky said above. | |||

"Lesson learned, mate. Don't beat yourself up - no major harm done by the sounds of it. Someone already asked how your OH reacted, and I'm interested to know that as well. " Re OH - Not happy - so hence play stopped and we went home. But indeed, appears I have to supervise and not join in, should we engage in open area play again. Shall re - read this thread next year to remind myself! Flames | |||

Shall re - read this thread next year to remind myself! Flames" That's a real shame but don't let it put you off. It certainly doesn't mean you should only watch and not be involved as well, a lot of the time a simple hand gesture and a quiet no is enough. If too many hands start to jump in I often request they all back off a bit as they're getting a bit close so your OH could have found her voice a bit too if she wasn't happy. Open play rooms can be a lot of fun if you enjoy the thrill of being watched, maybe next time when the room fills just say you're happy for everyone to watch but no touching please and then everyone is clear. When you invite someone say "just you" or "only one for now" possibly will help? | |||

"You should have been more assertive, you consented to the one guy joining in but not the others. You could have stopped what you were doing and explained that you only wanted the one other man to join you but you were happy for the others to watch and maybe join in later. Not easy I know but don't let the one incident put you off. " No - it's not up to him to be more assertive. He wasn't the one at fault. It was the fault of the rude prick who joined in without permission. | |||

"Like I mailed you a simple no.....though I always say thank you for a couple or group letting me watch, and compliments go a long way even though you don't play that night people rember you and say your a decent bloke Last night I had an akward moment chatting to female of couple going really well, mentioned before they left the bar ooo of you play open room I would like to watch if that's ok - husband was a bit well we are arnegoing to chill and even though he no thanks not a problem to watch I felt that was an issue - But the felt cold sholder rest of the evening Which is fine but that happens I have learnt that I didn't touch and I asked and done the right thing " Just jumping in. Fantastic a guy who says thankyou afterwards. Not many do. In our experience | |||

"OH here! Flames..... As I have told you MANY times, it was not your fault! We invited one guy to join in and it was the other rude bastards that made me uncomfortable and ruined the atmosphere. I'm sorry it killed the buzz and we went home but we will have other nights. It's not the end. I know you feel you should have been more assertive but let's be honest - I'm quite assertive enough for both of us! And your wonderful, kind, sensitive nature is one of the many reasons I love you so much. Now pull yourself together man and smile! Phoenix x" | |||

"You should of told the uninvited guy NO plain and simple.Or the uninvited guy should have kept his hands to himself. " That's the correct answer you should be enjoying yourself if you a nice guy why change for a few idiots who think it's a hall pass . They should be asking you and your other half first if it was OK as manners don't cost anything | |||

"To be a little bit fair to the uninvited guy, when the OP waved one man over it may have been misinterpreted as a sign for anyone to join in. So a quick, sorry I only meant for the one man to join in could have cleared things up and everything would have been fine." Just to clarify... The first guy who tried to join in uninvited was over the other side of the room when the guy we liked asked if he could touch and was told yes. Then the other guy just came over and joined in too. Then another guy walked in the room and just tried to move the guy we liked out of the way to join in. This wasn't guys misunderstanding. They were just plain rude. Which is why I stopped it. Phoenix. | |||

The second guy walked in the room and was between my thighs within seconds without even acknowledging us. Seriously not ok!

"I'm getting a sign painted for our next club visit..... "If it gets too close without permission I'll snap it off. You have been warned!!! "" that made me chuckle. Bless the pair of you, your message to your partner made me melt *loves* I think sometimes people need to relearn respect and what entitlement is, hopefully you decide to play again and find the rest of them aren't so disrespectful some people just lose their heads ...or think with their 'head' | |||

" Whatever room we are playing in, people have no right to assume anything. I don't think that your presumption is reasonable at all - it's ok, do what you want because the Dom will stop it if its not cool?! It's attitudes like yours that are the reason I prefer the fet scene - at a fet club no one would dream of joining in uninvited. As I've said before, I am capable of saying no and I did. But I shouldn't have to. People should be decent enough to ask first. The simple fact is, touching without permission is sexual assault and the sooner people understand that and the consequences the better. | |||

"OP - sorry to hear that you had problems with single guys touching without being invited, and well done for slapping them back, even though it meant the end of your own fun. However, to the posters who said "95% of single men" and "most single men"... it's simply not true that the majority of single men are a problem, in well-run clubs. I've been to several clubs on my own, for several years, and only twice have I had to call the management in, to enforce the rules. Single men get a bad reputation, which isn't deserved. I feel sorry for them, sometimes, as they have to identify whether a lady has invited a gang-bang, or just invited ONE other man to join in. While they're thinking about asking for permission to play, they're risking getting pushed to back of the gang-bang queue. I'm not defending people who touch without asking - anyone who tries that with me gets slapped away immediately. However, there are ways of not-so-subtly getting exactly what I want. I find that chatting in the bar with several single guys and saying "when I'm playing you can watch if you want, but you can't join in" gets the message across clearly - to the extent that the single guys remind each other of my rules, if anyone is getting too close. The trick is to be quite blunt about it. Men will always hope that they're going to 'get lucky', so being straight-to-the-point is better than trying to be subtle and polite." I went with a female friend to a club on a week night and there was tons of single men patrolling the whole place cock in hand,it was like a train station we just sat down in the cinema are and there was atleast 6 men waiting for us do something we kept them waiting for 15 mins laughed and went to the bar to grab a drink and got a private room I wouldn't play with single men around its like a zebra to a pack of lions | |||

"@ Dirty filthy milf No we didn't report them as they did back off when told. If they'd not done then I would have spoken to management (and directed them to the blokes with black eyes!)" Even though they backed off they still tried to join without an invite which is just as bad as it spoilt your night and you left early! If people don't tell management what's happened there's nothing to stop them doing it again and maybe next time not stopping when asked too, we all have to think about our own and others security and safety | |||

"So, I'd like to get some advice if I may... I'm the male half of the couple, and I need advice on how to handle other guys in clubs. We were playing in an open room on Saturday - so do appreciate this - we have the usual voyeurs whilst we play - which is fine.

Now - Do I just need to be "rude" to the other guys *NO* and back off? (It's my fault being a nice guy, but it's not my body that's getting pawed at!) So - Is it just a case of a firm "NO" that I need to do? Or what? I still consider myself new to clubs - but I would never dream of touching without invitation, personally (but is that the wrong attitude to assume, that others work the same way?) I am mightily annoyed and disappointed with myself, as it was our first time to play in many months, and it was the last time to play for a year or more, so I'd been really looking forward to a night of fun. :-/ Do I just need to go on assertiveness training? Cheers Flames" I have had this a few times I find a lot of guys like to slip stream off others guys manners, they wait for somebody else to be polite and ask then think it's a free for all if you say yes If this happens to me I simply say....ermm I didn't say yes to you Nothing else needs to be said | |||

"So, Lesson learn't... Assertiveness lessons downloading... It'd serve me better in life anyway as I am a pushover and can't say no. Just need to stop it wrecking my head now... Flames" You sound a lovely sensitive and sensible couple. The other guys presuming they could join in were completely in the wrong. It's sad the incident happened, but now with some new strategies learned to help prevent a repeat and some assertiveness training being undertaken, I hope you will soon resume club fun with confidence. You should be able to feel relaxed and not be on guard all the time. Be a little more specific in future and tell the watchers, you don't mind them watching, but you will make it clear when or who you want to join you. If anyone spoils that, play will stop. Have fun guys. | |||

Funnily enough, both times it was couples and never a single guy!! | |||

"To be fair to the guys they probably thought it was ok for them to touch too. None of us are mind readers. Yes they should ask but some people are happy for others to pile on. You just have to explain your boundaries. " A lot of guys are very eager and so probably assumed (or took the chance) that the nod meant yes to all. I'd suggest being more pointed with consent - so rather than nodding, say to the guy "would you like to join us?" and make it clear its just that one person for now. Hopefully that'll help | |||

"OH here! Flames..... As I have told you MANY times, it was not your fault! We invited one guy to join in and it was the other rude bastards that made me uncomfortable and ruined the atmosphere. I'm sorry it killed the buzz and we went home but we will have other nights. It's not the end. I know you feel you should have been more assertive but let's be honest - I'm quite assertive enough for both of us! And your wonderful, kind, sensitive nature is one of the many reasons I love you so much. Now pull yourself together man and smile! Phoenix x" | |||
