Oh Ok!?!?


I personally wouldn't ever swing. I'm too freaked about STD's to try other people out.

Although I do understand the need for a "change" in the bedroom. KWIM? However, I think if you truly love your partner you should do stuff with your partner to spice things up. Whether it's working out together to loose a few pounds, getting toys, getting games, sexy clothes, oils, maybe some books or dirty movies.....try it all first. Then maybe see a doctor or a therapist to find out why it's just not "working", ya know? But maybe that's just me.

ZandersMama replied: Personally if I knew the other well couple and knew they were clean, maybe. There is actually a couple DH and I have talked about BUT never got the nerve to ask them. SO I guess its fun to talk about but would prob never happen cause neither of us know how the relationship would be after, ours, and the friendship.

luvbug00 replied: i have yet to go that far..(no further details there) but from my experience with experementation I say it's a BAD idea and only invites jelously and troubble.

luvmykids replied: Nope. No way. Not me. Never.

BAC'sMom replied: Nope I think I'll pass too.

Jackie012007 replied: DF has expressed interest but I don't think that is something I could ever do... I watched this thing on MTV or VH1 on it and it just seems like it would complicate things

AlexsPajamaMama replied: Not for me. Or DH either.

gr33n3y3z replied: either way I would never do it

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: No way. Just like what I said in the other post, not my place to judge what others want to do, but it's not for me or DH.

kimberley replied: no way, no how. if i wanted other people, i wouldn't have gotten married.

ediep replied: no way

My3LilMonkeys replied: Not for me. Unless Tim McGraw and Faith Hill call, then DH and I will make an exception.

moped replied: Ummmm not here, Dr. Phil says even if you wanted to experiment just once, it would likely ruin your marriage eventually........like I know Dr. Phil personally or something - LOL

So I couldn't, but I know people that do.

I say it is ALL BAD

coasterqueen replied: I think it's great if couples can do it and it works for them. I don't think it would work for Dh and me. I know it wouldn't

Brias3 replied: I respect the opinions and choices of everyone but its NEVER something that would be for me or my husband. No way, no how.

redchief replied:
Wellll... Dr. Phil is kinda cute, in a baldheaded, too much make-up, preachy kind of way.

Oh, swinging? Nahh... I'm much too self-conscious for that. Errr... or something.

Our Lil' Family replied:
Haha, I was just thinking that!

Kidding aside, I don't believe it's the way God intended marriage to be....and since my marriage includes God, that will NEVER happen for us!

Hillbilly Housewife replied: Only if the swinging couple is Ginetter Reno and Jude Law.



If you need explanation on that one... dh gets Ginette, and I get Jude. Google her if you don't know who she is.

MyBabeMaddie replied: I dont think I have enough confidenfce, I'd be paranoid that he wouldn't feel the same about me afterwards.

my2monkeyboys replied: No way, no time, no person. Or should I say no people! LOL
I think marriage includes \ being monogamous. Hard to do that if if you're sharing each other.

Cece00 replied: Dh and I would NEVER do that. First off, it would ruin our marriage, and secondly, if I wanted to have sex with other people, I wouldnt be married to my husband. I personally believe its wrong for married people to have sex with other people, and its even more wrong when there are children involved.

My thoughts exactly!

ITA!!!!

hawkshoe replied: I have to admit that the fantasy of it is appealing at times. However, I do not think that I could ever bring it to the reality point. Some things are better left in the fantasy realm.

ITA!!! But even if it weren't for that, I wouldn't want to anyways.
