to be ridiculously excited to have just booked tickets for a swinging club for NYE party?

[goodcompany2]

First time without kids on NYE in 7 years and excited!!!

But the thread title wasn't exactly cryptic. Why bother posting, rahter than to express your opinion that you are above such things? I wouldn't post on a thread about someone's new hair cut because i have no interest in it, be a waste of mine and their time really.

Like i say, its not for me - but i can see the attraction. after 23yrs with DP, oh yes!

I love all the projecting of insecurities on this thread.

OP, hope you have a ball.

I'm single & these greedy girl parties sound bra' if I'm honest !

But the thread title wasn't exactly cryptic

what the tread title really says is
'yay me, I'm so cool and edgy with my adventurous sex life and huge sex drive'
and
'I'm so hot that lots of men want to have sex with me'

Think the OP just had an over excited moment and in her excitement thought she'd post where she normally posts things she's v happy about and wants to share, forgetting how judgey pants most MNetters are about these things. Don't think it was bragging, just the wrong website. If she'd posted the same thing on Fab Swingers she'd have had a very different reaction...

No, the thread title says I'm really excited to do something. You added the "cool and edgy and I'm so hot" bit yourself. The OP said nothing of the sort.

differentcats that's just the kind of remark that always pisses me off when this subject comes up. If you don't want to be a swinger then of course it has to be because you have 'insecurities'- it couldn't possibly because you don't want to get mauled by some creepy middle aged stranger, or that your idea of fun isnt seeing somebody who supposedly loves you fuck somebody else

The truth is, for me, that I feel sorry for people who feel the need to 'swing'. I realise how condescending that makes me sound.

Ho hum, these threads tend to go as well as the cat poo ones, ie not v well!!

oh yes of course, OP was so 'ridiculously' excited about her 'ridiculously' exciting sex life that she 'forgot' mums net isn't a swingers community and that bragging about your sex life on mums net looks exactly like, well bragging about your sex life

well duh, such an easy mistake to make I'm always thinking that mumsnet is 'fabswingers'

Hmm, from that Jay-Dees link posted above re dress code:

"We'll clarify that a little by saying that we expect gentlemen to be as smart as possible (trousers, smart shoes, and a shirt is fine) and ladies should dress as sexily as they feel comfortable with."

Why are only the women to dress sexily?

not familiar with the concept of 'reading between the lines' then Dione?

It's not about you though. The OP created a post about her, not you. Nor is it a case that if you don't want to swing you must be insecure. It is the case that people who are disparaging of other adult's consentual sexual choices, be it homosexuality, polyamory or casual one on one, tend to have insecurities.

wtf are you on about Dione?

The amount of times it mentions hygiene and cleanliness in the blurb makes it sound very unhygienic and anything but clean.

There's reading between the lines and making up stuff that hasn't been said Suzanne.

The OP said she was excited to book something that is exciting to her, having her first NYE without DCs in 7 years. How did you get "I'm so cool & edgy and hot" from that?

My 21:55 post was adressing tge points Quorn made.

Anyone else looking forward to nyd to hear all about it?

Nope.

what are you wearing, Op?

I meant to your swinger's do..?

I couldn't handle the cystitis

Have fun OP

SpellBookandCandle BF's old jumper, my jeans and mismatched socks at mo! To the party - a maxi dress cut a little lot lower than I would ever wear in my own home town! .

cleaty There will be no reports on NYD; a full english breakfast, drive home, walk along the coast and a nice film to cwtch to!

I think you will be lovely! I would invest in new bra and knicks..just to feel sexy.

OMG... I really shouldn't have opened this thread as I knew just from the title that the vast majority of posts would be the typical MN style response to anything different from the monogamous norm. (Which, as we all know, isn't terribly successful).

To Goodcompany2 and those who have supported her - well done you guys. Live your lives as you choose to without listening to the negative comments on here.

Would it be worse to be the 4 or the 0 in the 0-4 club...?

I don't think swinging and polyamory are the same thing.

Hope it's as much fun for you as you hoped OP.
