And That’s Why California Is A Swing State

Swingers is one of my all time favorite movies, Modern Philosophers, but sometimes, hearing the title of the flick sends shivers down my spine.

I rarely talk about my marriage on the blog, and there are several reasons for that.  I’d rather leave the past in the past, there’s no sense in opening up old wounds, and there are things that happened during that time in my life that I still have difficulty talking about twenty years later.

This week, I decided it was time to tell one of those stories. I’m falling deeply in love with Melissa, and I want her to understand why I’m so quirky, weird, and difficult when it comes to certain topics.

Putting this story down on paper, and then asking My Sweet Irish Girlfriend to help me edit it, was a great way to tell her about something I rarely discuss.

An interesting and amazing story spilled out of me, but it’s definitely something that doesn’t belong on the pages of this blog.  It’s a little too out there for the Otherworldly Beings that consider this blog their refuge.

Luckily, my friends at The Good Men Project were willing to give it a home.

I would love for you to read it because I like telling you stories, and this is one that will most certainly get the Deep Thoughts flowing.

I will warn you, though, it involves moving to California and sharing a house with a couple of swingers.  Not the Jon Favreau/Vince Vaughn movie kind, but the kind that has sex with other couples.

If that kind of subject matter isn’t your cup of tea, then I understand why you won’t rush over to read the post.

Don’t worry, this blog will remain Family Friendly, just not Family Friendly in the way my former in-laws were…

But if this intrigues you, and you want to find out about a deep, dark, freaky secret from my past, please click on the link below and head over to GMP to check it out!

A Newlywed Living In A House Of Swingers

If you like the post, could you please share it on social media?  There are share buttons at the end of the article, and it would mean a lot to me if you could send this one out into the vast interwebs for all to read.

After all, the swinging lifestyle is about sharing!

Thank you, Modern Philosophers, for supporting me as I spread my writing wings.

I also want to thank The Good Men Project for being willing to share my wilder stories, and Melissa for helping me to edit that post while also being incredibly understanding about my past.

You’re all so money, and you don’t even know it!

Sorry, I just had to put a reference to the movie Swingers in there to get my mind focused on the positive meaning of that word again…
