The swinger lifestyle can be very exciting. It offers so many opportunities to meet and interact with fun and sexy people. However, as is true with other social interactions, sometimes things can get awkward or uncomfortable.

This episode is personal and intense for us. Mr. Saturday and Brainy get REALLY honest and personal. In previous episodes we have shared many (mostly) positive experiences that we have been fortunate enough to experience together. This episode focuses on experiences that were less positive. Some were a bit clumsy and a few were downright awful. We discuss these and explore how they might have been handled better. Honest and open communication seems to be the key, and we discuss that here.

Brainy recounts a few experiences in the lifestyle where things got awkward. Some ended really badly, but some turned out OK because they were handled well. Later, Mr. Saturday shares some of his experiences. He talks about having an intense group sex experience that was later made awkward when one of the of the participants divulged that he was cheating on his wife.

Awkward moments often involve male performance issues, and Mr. Saturday offers his advice for handling these situations. Performance issues can be caused by a myriad of factors, but the way in which they are handled makes a big difference in the way everyone ends up feeling. It's interesting to consider why very similar events can have such different outcomes when things are handled better and communication is improved.

Establishing a plan to deal with potentially awkward situations can make swinging adventures much more fun. We offer some suggestions about how to do that here.
