We are R&C a happily (soon to be) Married couple in our mid-late 40’s. We’ve been together 4 and a half years and have a very strong and happy relationship. Both previously married, and now divorced with 4 kids between us. We are fairly new to the lifestyle, and are looking forward to getting to know you more.
So how did we get into the lifestyle? This is one of the first questions we are always asked when we go to clubs and parties and it’s one we usually ask others too. It’s a nice ice breaker and often leads to interesting and spicy conversations!
Let’s rewind a couple of years to the winter of 2022. After a few drinks and a late night, planning our next travel adventure to Amsterdam ,C decided to broach the subject of voyeurism. She expressed an interest in watching and being watched and suggested we visit a sex club while we were away.
She’d done her research (she’s good at that) and already found a potential club to visit, just outside the city.
But the recent pandemic put our plan out of the question sadly and instead we enjoyed a ‘still sexy’ trip enjoying the sex shops, checking out the girls in the windows and watching a rather tame show.
The subject got dropped and while we remained a pretty spicy pair (we’ve always had a very active sex life) the idea of playing in front of others went out of the window.
Until Christmas 2023…. That’s when C stumbled across a podcast called The Curios Couple. For the life of her she can’t remember how she discovered it, or what made her seek this kind of content out, but needless to say she was hooked.
It’s a fairly old podcast and easily over 10 years old. It tells the journey of a US couple who were new to swinging and how their journey went from 1 – 100 in a few short years.
No stone is left unturned with this one as they re-tell each and every encounter they have into the lifestyle and we listen as their boundaries slowly get less and less as time goes on.
And to keep it honest, they also talk about everything, (not just the sexy highlights). They cover jealousy, STD’s, drinking to excess and regrets, learning to love your body and much, much more.

After a few hours of listening, C’s interests where peaked. She liked what she’d heard and felt the urge to have a go. This swinging lifestyle sounded like fun, so once again she broached the subject with R.
Whilst he was nervous and a little unsure, they hatched a plan to visit the only club that was anywhere near their home and decided to venture to OurPlace for Fun or OP4F as it’s affectionally known and the rest is history.
C has plans for a book, or possibly more detailed blog posts in the near future, so we won’t spoil the events of that night here, but needless to say they are now well and truly hooked on the lifestyle. Just 14 months later, they are writing this post and designing their website so that they can share the joys of swinging with others, and hopefully make some headway towards correcting the stigma that the lifestyle has from those who perceive it as shameful.
If you are a swinger and want to connect with us then we’d suggest searching out a well-known swinger app called FAB swingers. You will find us going by the name of Cumhither.
But if you just want to ask us questions or you’re ‘not quite there yet’, then please feel free to drop us an email on hello@pineapplepassion.co.uk
