Read the Room

Be mindful before approaching a couple and when they approach you. Observe the dynamics between them prior to engaging. If one partner seems enthusiastic and the other doesn’t, you may want to ask more probing questions as interest levels are important. Here are some points to consider:

  • When chatting with each other, spend time engaging with both partners.
  • If one of the couple is speaking up most of the time, their partner may not be very interested. Ask probing questions of both to make sure everyone is on the same page.
  • Have an in-depth discussion about discomfort or potential jealousy concerns beforehand.

Establishing Boundaries and Expectations

As a unicorn, your companionship will be in high demand, so you have the option of being choosy, establishing set boundaries and realizing your own expectations. Throughout the swingers lifestyle, participants also have boundaries with their significant others so make sure to clarify what these are before engaging in play. Establish the “rules” and respect healthy boundaries concerning sexual activity.

A few tips for respecting dynamics include:

  • Express your intentions and boundaries clearly, and let the couple do the same.
  • Have a set safe words, so everyone knows when discomfort has creeped in or someone wants to stop.
  • Respect the couple’s desire for privacy and the dynamics of their relationship, just as much as you do for yourself.

Having and maintaining well-defined expectations and boundaries sets up a structure that allows participants to relax and receive pleasure from the experience.
