Bare with me. I am very very interested in starting a relationship with a guy who was previously married and living rhe lifestyle with his ex and may potentially be active still? Not entirely sure. I have never explores the lifestyle and really didn't know much about it until meeting him. It is not really something he is willing to not have in his life so Our hold up is if I would be okay with it. I truly don't know. I grew up, pretty vanilla but through some phases of my life have opened up a bit more sexually and have found myself to be a more sexual person. Still a bit shy with a little anxiety sprinkled in. I know I won't KNOW until I know. But how could I go about testing the waters without risking his feelings? Has anyone else had similar experiences? How did the beginning of your relationship go? I think part of my issue is I'm not at all into other women, so I can't imagine wanting to play with them either.... don't even know if that's ever expected? Seriously, I know almost nothing. Also, I guess, can women go to the clubs solo and just get a feel for things? Would it likely be too overwhelming to try? I'll take any advice, tips, stories, warnings or just details on how this "typically" goes.

I should say it's not just to win him over. It's truly because it's part of who he is and I feel very strongly about him, so I would like to see if I can support and enjoy supporting that side of Him. I'm not turned off by the idea. Just don't know what to expect, worried about my jealousy, a new relationship and how to get through my anxiety about something so new.

Just be careful.....swinging and poly are somewhat related but are very different branches of the tree. Someone saying they are poly but would be "satisfied" with swinging is something of a red flag IMO. Not saying it won't work, but it is something to be careful about. Swinging is specifically about the sex....and sex is good as long as no one catches feelings....I am no expert but Ms. jelloshotlady has the right idea...check those resources and don't do anything or agree to anything just to please someone else. It took 20ish years of marrage for my wife to want to try LS fun times and it has been great....but if she put the stop to it today I would happily accept that with no argument....I would not try and keep her doing something she was not interested in doing

If he is really that into wanting to be with you ask him to take you to a club with the understanding that there is to be no play...you just wanna check the vibe and see how you feel. Our first time at a club there was a strict nothing except parallel play rule in place....and wife and I both got so hot and bothered that we boinked like rabbits all night around other folks. That relaxed us and made us realize we wanted more the next time. But it could just as well led to one or both of us realizing it wasn't for us. The question is will he accept it's not for you if that is the decision you come to, and do you want to pursue a long term relationship with someone if they dont?

Edit: and if you go to a club solo you may get very overwhelmed with attention and it will be an entirely different vibe as every unicorn hinter in the place will be all over you for your attention.

Ooo you just went over my advice giving paygrade. I have nothing against poly relationships but I know they are not my thing as that is more emotional non-monagamy added to the sexual side....and while I am not a jealous person by nature...I would have a difficult time with that aspect
