The good old way of getting meets

Just posting in another thread about memories of swinging.

I’m long in the tooth having my first experience back in 1990 as a 19-year old.

I was 19 years old, living in London and my curiosity had been caught by the small ads while flicking through Loot newspaper. Decided to send off a few polite letters (enclosing a SAE!) with a passport pic of myself (talk about security risks!) and then waited.

About 2/3 weeks later I spotted my hand writing on a letter on the door mat and rushed to read it. A lovely letter enclosed with a photo of a couple, who were both 25+ years older than me, fully dressed, alongside each other, a typical holiday photo, saying they’d like to get to know me better and including a phone number (landline obviously) suggesting I call any Mon-Thursday between 9 and 10.30pm!!

So, duly trotted off to the local phone box armed with coins had a really nice chat, and arranged an evening to visit theirs.

Took the tube and my A-Z to find them and I remember the butterflies as I found their cul de sac, ringing the door bell and waiting. Rung again. Then sensed movement. Door opened, my heart was racing, hubby invited me in, took my coat, asked did I want a beer and led me into the lounge where I met by the sight of his wife in basque, stockings, French knickers and heels and my tummy was flipping!

I knew then my life was going to be different and there was no going back and I often think of that evening.

As it was in those days, the anticipation and the wait was something else. Newcomers to the scene today may complain about getting meets but they genuinely don’t know they are born!

Wow, this certainly takes me (M) back!

I started a little later, in 2000 at the age of 28. Mobile phones were (sort of) a thing by then, but no pic swapping capability and no online sites that I knew of. Found an ad for a chatline (Quest personals, I believe!) in the back of a magazine and gave it a punt one evening shortly after I’d broken up with a GF.

I was surprised to find that quite a few couples were looking for a third, so I left a message in response to my ‘favourite’ ad and was blown away when the male half of a MF couple responded a couple of days later. We got on well over the phone and (still in the absence of any photos) I arranged to meet them both in a pub near Newbury a few days later. Given that I was living in Kent at the time, the risk of a long wasted journey was high, but I was too excited to care.

To my lasting astonishment, not only were they both in the bar as arranged, but the wife was lovely - both in looks and personality - and we made a great connection.

We didn’t play that night, despite my having booked a hotel (apparently they had to get back for the babysitter, but probably - and understandably - they wanted to confer). We did, however, agree to meet a week later when they were staying at a hotel for a friend’s wedding, and that ended very differently

They really were different times.

To think I found a threesome in a weekly buy and sell newspaper!!

Later I moved onto Rendezvous and Journal

Of Love contact mags - but as always seems to be the case as a single male it was hard work. It certainly seemed to get easier when I found myself a suitable partner !!!
