Thank you, what's your best tip?Welcome, Callie… hope you enjoy the place.
Thank you xHello and welcome.. Xx
Be honest about what you want, and what you’re looking for... and open minded about what everyone else is into.Thank you, what's your best tip?
What if I don't know what I want yet? ?Be honest about what you want, and what you’re looking for... and open minded about what everyone else is into.
Everything else you’ll pick up quickly, I assure you.
Oh, and ask If there’s something/anything you don’t understand. It’s a friendly bunch here, and someone will know the answer to anything you want to know.
That’s a very fair question!What if I don't know what I want yet? ?
Thank you, that helps a lot ?That’s a very fair question!
I’d suggest reading the forums, seeing what people have related about their own experiences.
There are threads on how various site members got involved in the scene… that might give you some ideas…
This is one.
But there are some others as well.
Also, no one will object to you asking for ideas or advice.
(And if you feel… awkward… asking publicly, you can always drop members you like a private message asking if they’re ok if you ask some private questions.)
Are there ever any up north?Welcome to social swinging, if you’re interested in meeting other members take a look at the First Saturday Social thread https://tiny.cc/SaturdaySocials it’s a monthly social to bring like-minded people together

There are socials being organised all the time, maybe advertise one yourself ??Are there ever any up north?
Just name a date and venue, could be a club or a local pub or a hotel and go from there. Easy ??I'll keep my eyes open for any. I wouldn't know where to start x
I’ve wanted to do one up north for a while! If you make a suggestion with the location & month you’d like I’ll look into itAre there ever any up north?

I’ll also add to this; some people can be very pushy and persistent. If they’re not what you’re looking for and you’re not interested - make sure you say so rather than decided to leave the site for example. If anyone pushes it too far, don’t be afraid to say so and tell them.Thank you, what's your best tip?

In addition to this, if anyone really oversteps the mark, please ensure you report it. Especially as a single lady.
Other than that, enjoy exploring yourself and widening your horizons. X

Most welcome. Safety is paramount for everyone and equally. But it’s fair to say that ladies get pressured more. It’s too easy to get swept up in it so I feel it’s important to always try and remain slightly grounded. That way you are making sure you’re safe and able to say no to people. No, always means no. XThank you,that's good advice x
