My wife and I have started seeing another couple and things are pretty positive. We've been chatting with them for about two months now and have had one night away with them which was great. Outside of the sexy stuff we've found that there are interests outside of the bedroom that make for good friends too. The only thing I'm struggling with is the persistent communication that comes from all this.

Pretty much every day the wives are exchanging pictures in our group chat with flirting and sexting in come capacity. We usually find time as platonic friends to meet once or twice a week but can only meet to play at most once a month.

I'm generally a pretty quiet person and there are very few people I chat to this often in general so it feels like a lot to me, but my social butterfly wife thrives on being chatty. In all this I find it hard to enjoy the lifestyle like we used to because of all the time spent with this couple, I don't really want to lock into them and start to tread into more serious territory.

I'm just wondering how often others in the community keep in touch with your play partners. I'm not sure if I'm being an antisocial hermit or if I'm missing the trend on daily flirts and texts.
