Now has anybody heard of THAT happening before? I am beginning to believe I am a pretty sheltered individual.
Uh, no. If you're sheltered, then I am too, and we're all a bunch of hermits, apparently, since no one else on this thread has heard of this, either. LOL!
Last week, I started a thread about the couple that inadvertently revealed their swinging lifestyle to us.
Now, last night at a dinner party (not the same crowd), an acquaintance of ours gets sloshed, and starts talking about how, for the past 15 years of marriage, her husband's ex-girlfriend goes along with them on vacations.
Yes. You read right. The ex-girlfriend hasn't missed a vacation with this couple in 15 years.
So, my wife afterwards says, "Oh, that's weird. What do you think happens?"
I was pretty confident that all three were probably sharing a room, doing the humpalumpadingdong.

I've gotta say you seem to have interesting friends, cpg! Darn, nobody talks about exciting things to me, either!
it makes no sense to me whatsoever, i have always gone by the saying, "your ex- is your ex- for a reason" as in when it's over, it's over. If i wanted to still be with the person, i'd be with them. If not, then i have no business still being intimate with them.
But then I am monogamous to the absolute nth degree, so I can not even begin to think outside of that box.
On a lighter note, it sounds like you have some very interesting evenings with friends!!! LOL

Don't you know it. My wife says I'm the kind of person people will talk to about anything at all. There's truth in that.
Doesn't anyone worry about all the STDs going around, yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or, maybe they all share in their daily dosages of medicine too....
um, people that play use protection.let me rephrase that...smart people that play use protection
i'm friends with all of my ex's, and my sister and her ex-husband have remained close. not close enough to have sex together, but close enough to travel together. i take vacations with my ex's. just because the 'romantic' aspect of the relationship didn't work out, i was attracted to them initially for some other reasons, usually involving similar interests outside of the bedroom. so why throw away a great friendship? just so you know, i tell any woman i date that i remain close friends with my ex's. there has never been an issue mixing company :-)
in the case of your married friends, perhaps she is along for the wife :-) i have (safe) sex with several married women. hubbies are not involved.

i appreciate it when someone is able to offer this clear direct communication to me in a dating situation, so I applaud your honesty and clarity.
That said, when I hear this in a dating situation, i run the other way as fast as I can, because it raises so many red flags for me!
Civil relations with the parents of shared children, that I can see
But every time I've been around someone who is "friends with the ex's" it turns out to be "not available emotionally" to me, or just plan not monogamous, or still wants to be available to play with lots of partners.
This is not a criticism, and I do appreciate when people bring this out right up front because it can be a deal-breaker when it comes to a potential partner. It's not my job to change or criticise or judge anyone, it is my job to know a situation that does not work for me, and stay out of those situations.
