THE MERRI-GO-ROUND

Our search for a couple has continued unabated since we last posted on the matter. Attrition of the field, as small as it is, is high given our rather specific profile and narrow criteria for the right match. We have placed several ads, at different times, on Craigslist, since this has been a more cost effective way of getting our search out over those “pay to play” swinger sites that never really pan out after the membership fee has been paid. Criagslist is free, so there is nothing lost if we never hit the jackpot. Our ads have varied over successive revisions, and most recently was rewritten to seek a different end game as a result of discussions with Angie on entering a dynamic with another couple. While she has expressed a willingness to explore a three way with a couple, she sees a 4-way group dynamic extending only to “soft swap” as regards my role.



As posted early and often in this blog, Angie has the freedom to pursue her interests while I am bound by my commitment to stay chaste to her. With all the disappointment looking for the right single guy to replace “R” (who has coincidentally come back into the picture…along with her first lover “K”!), I opted to see if couples would offer a higher quality of male FWB along with a wife/GF with whom Angie could explore the bi-sexual side of a FMF arrangement.

The last couple we were in contact with: “G” and “L”, have fallen by the wayside. I was becoming impatient with him (“G”) solely because his continued inquiries as to our age, date of our pictures, etc, made the introductory process feel more and more like he was doing us a favor. So Angie and I just left him hanging without any further comment.

We received a response to our on-line ad from a woman, which was quite refreshing since it’s almost always men placing and answering these kinds of ads. Rather than refer to her by a single letter acronym, I’ll just call her “Lori”. She was quite direct in expressing her thoughts on our ad, and her expectations for a potential relationship with both Angie and me. She has her own relationship with a man who we will call “Paul”. They are both from the west coast, and though they live in separate states they are able to see each other with enough frequency to make the relationship work. She gets here to the east for work often enough to believe we could make a LTR work if the chemistry is there. Paul does not have the same travel schedule so he would not likely be in the picture as often, though they are expecting to be in Boston this April for the Boston Marathon.

Lori’s candid way of expressing herself suggests an assertive, if not dominant, personality. She is quite upfront about her strong bi-sexuality and the fact she just came off a LTR with a woman before hooking up with Paul. Lori was quite clear that she hopes to have an intimate relationship with the both of us, even though I explained that, up to this point, Angie has not expressed a willingness to let me experience anything other than a “soft swap”. Obviously some discussion and agreement has to take place between the girls to settle on my role. So we’ll see where this goes. I am content to do as Angie pleases, even if it is to only watch.


Angie is not suffering for lack of play time while we await developments with Lori and Paul. While “R” is off and out of sight and mind, “K”, her first lover with whom she has maintained contact, has come back in (literally). I was rubbing lotion on Angie’s beautiful body last night and we spoke of random things in dreamy tones while instrumental music played at low volume on our sound system. It is something wondrous how music can frame a mood, and enhance it; as well as drop barriers we erect during the day to protect our psyches from the assaults of the work day. In a moment of relaxed peace Angie admitted that “K” came over…this morning no less… and they went downstairs to our basement family room to enjoy a tryst. She brought him to orgasm in her mouth, and once again in her pussy as she rode him cowgirl style. But I give away too much here, as I would prefer she tell the details in Lexicon. She owes us her story of her night with “R” anyway, and I shall insist that she share that too.
