To think friend's flirting and sex games are not normal!? Lighthearted!

We have a group of friends from school and the local area, and one couple in particular seem to play a lot of games when we're out.

Examples are, practically forcing a newly single female friend onto her husband on the dancefloor. So the wife pushes her up against him and says go on, dance with him, and the husband forces his legs between hers and is practically grinding her! Half an hour later the husband and wife are outside passionately snogging while newly single friend is feeling mortified about the dance floor experience.

Another time the wife initiates a game where she discreetly dares some husbands to approach other wives and touch them in an inappropriate way, for example, rub their leg or something, and then the wife also does a similar dare where she touches an unsuspecting husband. Can I add, these poor suspects are not part of our group of friends!

Another time wife initiates full tongue snogging with other wives.

We're all in our early 40's. I just find it moronic that they behave like this at this age! I've behaved in a similar manner but when I was in my twenties and would feel an idiot doing it now.

Is this how they keep their sex life exciting? They definitively seem to get some kind of kick out of it.

So they humiliate and practically assault a friend who could do with support and they play their pathetic cuckholding fantasies out in public?

They sound like hoots, Cotton and I too don't find anything 'lighthearted' in your posts. They sound horrible and quite frankly, if you're their friend, you must be of the same mindset. Harsh on you perhaps, but I wouldn't have friends like this, not at any level.

I am not of the same mindset.

Yet you refer to them as 'friends'.

Did you stand up for the woman who was also a friend who was humiliated by this unlovely pair then?

I didn't see it happen. I learned about it a few days later from the single friend. Had I seen it happen I would have rescued her and asked them what they were doing. They have been friends, it's only lately I've noticed this behaviour.

Eeeew. Nasty, nasty, nasty

There are clubs for that sort of thing, where the people involved are actually consenting.

P.S.

Call me an old fuddy duddy, but I've never behaved like this, not even in my twenties

I knew a couple like this, well the wife any way. I found her in bed with a friend and kept schtum for years, on her behalf. She made passes at every man I knew - danced in her bra and pants on my coffee table to one of them while the rest of us were in my kitchen FFS! Poor bloke came in after making a run for it and refused to be left alone with her after that! She admitted to a longer term affair with a family friend too which was obvious to everyone at the time.
Very long story short, I ended up telling her husband (who I had felt sorry for for years) only to be told that her 'flirtatiousness' was part of what had attracted him in the first place. He sounded as though he knew about it all and I was being a prude or something! It has crossed my mind that they were swingers. No one else I know, male or female, could put up with that kind of behaviour without batting an eyelid!
