Someone suggested I x-post here: We did it! During a layover with a new friend. Where can I collect my hotwi[f]e merit badge? :) [story inside]

Hopefully this doesn’t come across as a humblebrag – not our intention. I thought this might be useful for anyone in a similar spot, or anyone who is curious to hear a newcomers first time from the wife’s point-of-view.

After talking about it with my husband for almost a year we finally made it happen! It was actually a really great experience, and while I was afraid I might regret it a little or have second thoughts, it ended up being a ton of fun!

Some quick background. My husband and I are both 26 and started dating at 17. Neither of us has had a ton of partners before of our relationship, which we both regret to some degree, although it took us a long time to admit it. Don’t get me wrong, we love each other to death, I think we both just wished we had a little more “sexual exploration”. That got us talking about swinging / hotwifing – which we didn’t have a term for at the time – and eventually we were passively interested in trying it out, but were generally too busy or intimidated to actually do it.
