Do you want to date together, aka swing? Or are you each going your own way?


OP here - thanks for this question because I agree there's a big difference here. We're going our own way, not dating together. So a lot of those sites aren't going to work for us. I guess the more traditional sites would be better. I just wasn't sure if anybody on those sites would be looking for this sort of situation.


There are tons of other married people to have affairs with.


Great, but how do I find them? That's what I'm asking.


Can’t get started talking to likeminded couples as an anonymous poster! Let’s talk!

OP you are female, correct? Look around you right now: see any married men? 99% of them would sleep with you, just approach and say Hi. Don't be too flattered about this fact, it has little to do with you, just the gender disparity of sex drive combined with married women wired to lose interest in their husbands. This phenomenon will also work (in reverse) for your husband: assume all married women are utterly bored with their own husbands, so even a tiny bit of attention from your DH will get them going.

Serious question: Why stay married if you don't want to keep your vows? You did take the vows right? Forsake all others?

Not everyone uses those tired old vows. We wrote our own, none of which mentioned lifelong monogamy. You do you; let others live as they see fit.

This used to work much better when explicit was active and the chat room linked there was busy.

Wow. Lyn is a real player. You are okay with this? Are you emasculated or have mental issues?

Try a sugar dating website and look for men 40+. Even if it's not stated on their profile, nearly all of them are married. It doesnt have to be abotut $$, just you're more likely to find non-weirdos on there.

Throw a key party. It worked in the 70s! It's a good way to meet likeminded folks.

While I don't buy your story...talk to some people in the health field. Herpes and the many diseases should be a wake up call.

Oh please. It's no riskier than being a single dater.

I don't get why people make these comments. No more risk than being single. Silly people.

Not in this situation but not all weddings have vows. Mine did not. I am an Orthodox Christian and you don't say "I do" at your wedding. And some people write their own. Also, some people do the "vows" as part of the ceremony but it is for show only and not truly what people are signing up for. My ex H reneged on our agreement for married life...this is something that would not be in vows but was far worse than "breaking a vow."

Get over yourself about vows.
