There are several things that come to mind with this question. Not sure I would try to rank them but at the top is the way in which living the lifestyle has effected us individually and as a couple. We see having sex with another person as just another aspect of our overall sex life. However, we do not put any value on it beyond that. We have always said that sex with other people should be to add or enhance our sex life and it has.
When we have sex with other people, it is just us having fun. We feel the “adventures” we have had we others has been all about having “sexual fun”. We want to both please each other and see each other being pleased by others. If we have a whim involving sex with someone else, then we are all for it. We know what our love is, how strong it is, and how solid our marriage is, and this gives us the freedom we need to do this. We have complete faith and in trust in each other and never feel threatened by others. When we are with other people it is a “sport fuck”, the sex satisfies desires, fulfill a fantasy’s, and used to explore erotic ideas.
Aside from what it has done for our marriage, for the wife it has given her an extra level of sexual empowerment. The freedom boost her confidence knowing that other men desire her and, confirms her sexual attractiveness to them. I learned about myself that when I became confident in our marriage, trusting in my wife, and controlled my ego and jealousy it open up doors to my sexuality that I otherwise would have stayed closed minded to.
