♦ One of the great and yet awful things about blogging, particularly sex blogging, is being made to confront your own experiences and express them to an audience who don’t know you and, you know, weren’t there, man. Sometimes that expression comes easily, other times it’s more difficult. This’ll be the latter. Because stepping outside your norm is always a challenge.
And stepping outside my norm is certainly one way of putting my weekend, so you’ll have to forgive me if this post is chaotic. To be honest, I might very well appreciate some (non-judgemental) comments, in fact.
On the weekend I went to what was to be a normal, friendly housewarming chez my friend Mermaid, who you may know as a girl I’ve drawn nude before. I don’t think I’ve mentioned that on the blog, but I know some of you follow my Twitter. To sum up: she posed nude for us for life drawing once. Every party of hers that I have been to has been a little bit raucous, so I really should have expected that. Silly me.
Let’s be honest here, most of the evening’s events, for me at least, stemmed from too many bottles of Sidekick and a very enthusiastic game of Ring of Fire. Now, I didn’t intend for debauchery of any kind. You can tell, because although I’d prettied up in an underbust corset covered with a sexy 50s rockabilly dress, none of the, ahem, more intimate parts of my outfit saw any attention. I shaved my legs, but not my (by then lazily verging on 70s bush) pussy and my knickers were of the massive Transformers boxers variety. I didn’t expect anyone to see either, though, so it didn’t matter.
But the alcohol had other ideas about my evening.
It started out fairly harmless: flirting with Mermaid’s 19-year-old lesbian sister, who was flabbergasted by the idea of being “hit on” by a 26-year-old; my housemate Alt generally making what I took as flirty growly noises at me and stroking my newly short hair, a discussion of boob sizes and corsets and yet more blatant attempts on my part to seduce either my new lesbian friend or the very buxom bisexual wench (she was very wenchy) who was also aiming for my first target.
When it comes to women, I am a bit of a cad. Normally my gentlemanly exterior (and, let’s be honest, my ridiculous social awkwardness) keeps this under wraps. Enough Dutch courage, however, and all that is wiped away. It’s one of the things I both love and hate about alcohol. It boosts my confidence, it strips away the stuff that stops me fully living life, but it doesn’t half make for its own trouble.
The party got more raucous, I got more intoxicated and certain party-goers got flirtier and dirtier. Alt soon disappeared somewhere with the Wench, but the two returned after a while.
The next thing I can tell you is that I was outside in the alleyway at the back of the house with the buxom Wench, my housemate Alt and one or two other gentlemen. None of them were Crush, who was still inside chatting away to people. Then suddenly (at least in my memory-deprived mind), debauchery struck.
I don’t know how it started, but the Wench became a sudden focal point for a group grope and tangle of hands and mouths. I can’t tell you exactly what went on, which is a damn fucking shame, because I at least know that it was hot. Things I can remember: my mouth eagerly sucking on the nipple of her bared breasts; a practically pitch-black muddle of clothed bodies and moans; very probably kissing Alt (though I really am not sure); tugging on a proffered, unknown cock as I focused my mouth on the Wench; Alt and I spanking the Wench hard as she leant against the alley wall; my knickers and tights around my thighs.
The rest I can’t be sure of except to know that nothing more serious happened than some bared-body-part groping. How do I know this? Because although the alcohol coursed through my head and the sheer orgiastic lust of it all sparked in my cunt, my heart was full of one thing only.
Crush.
Women were allowed and the Wench was the focal point and spark of this little happening, but there were men and there was cock and before long thoughts of Crush and what he might say and how I wished he was there loomed large. I barely remember disengaging, making myself presentable and coming inside. But I did it for him. I tried, of course, to get him to come back out with me, but it wasn’t his scene.
I told him everything, because Mr Secret is not our friend, and I was so amazingly pleasantly surprised by his reaction. He was a little disappointed, naturally, but it actually came down more to the fact that I hadn’t told him what I was getting into than the fact I did it. He was so good about what could have been a serious blip on our radar. If I’d have told him, he wouldn’t really have minded. Of course, I’m actually glad now that I was feeling guilty and came inside because I am pretty damn certain I was too drunk to make clever decisions about anything or to even get the full benefit of much.
So, you can see how I had a pretty confusing and mixed weekend. I’m still sorting through my feelings about it all.
On the one hand, hot, awesome, playful sexiness of the kind I really wish would be a bigger part of my life. On the other hand, the loss of control and memory and the fact things could have easily gone much worse, both relationship-wise and safety-wise 1. I was more than a bit silly and, thanks to the Sidekick, that wasn’t even really a decision I made. On the third hand (shut up), this whole thing has made me love Crush so much more than I already did. He could have flipped. Although my relationship with him basically started with drunken naughty shenanigans, it could have been drunken naughty shenanigans that ended it. He took everything so well and was the paragon of loving and supportive to me. He was, and is, a fucking angel.
Plus also, his punishment for my transgressions is that I have to “make it up to him”. In a sex way. So that at least is something to look forward to… ♦
Notes:
- Although I’m almost certain nothing serious enough to warrant it went on, Crush and I have been planning to get our sexual health checked out for a while now, so this is a good kick up the arse for that. ↩




















This is why when I swing ( and I realize this wasn’t an organised swinging party) I don’t drink, but that piece of wisdom was reached after many years. Drink, desire, open relationships these things happen.
Relationships survive them in my experience, ( 20 years married)by the steps you already used, full disclosure, discussion and accepting you stepped out of the pre arranged boundaries.
It may be worth discussing these boundaries, we too had a same sex only rule for a long time, Mr jem is also bi, so his rule included safe sex, mine didn’t as i hate dental damns.
However now we are both free to meet and have sex with whoever we want, safe of course, and with the full disclosure rule. I have my relationship with the Domly One, these were not an overnight jump, but a series of discussions and discovery of what works.
There seems a desire to explore group scenarios, at least on your part. Talk this over. Oh and even drunk, carrying condoms is always a good idea.
It’s really comforting to know you came to your current swinging/open relationship slowly and that yours evolved over time. I sometimes get anxious when I think of the things I’d like to do, but can’t and I wonder if I’ll ever be able to. Seeing that a relationship really is an ever-changing thing helps me think that one day I might actually get there. :)
I’m glad that you approve of the disclosure and discussion side. Dishonesty is definitely not something I want to get involved with. From experience, openness is the best policy.
As for group scenarios, that is definitely a big fantasy of mine, so it’s something I’d love to do one day. We shall see!
We had a discussion about boundaries and relationships and so on right after reading your comment, so thank you so much for your support and great advice!
Hmm, I don’t know if I have any advice for you but I think drunk you did the right thing. Crush was totally awesome for not getting upset by it and I think that’s a positive thing. Perhaps you’re not as bad a drunk as you think you are.
I actually think it’s extremely sweet that your heart was full of him in that situation. That’s romance and love right there :)
Hooray for the right thing! I’m glad to get such a supportive comment! And yes, Crush was an absolute star. If anything I am more in love with him now than ever. He reacted with love and understanding and that’s just so wonderful. Thanks so much for the comment and support.
Blacksilk, Blacksilk, Blacksilk.
I am incredibly proud of you.
You could have just let yourself get swept away into that lusty debauchery and, although you put one foot over the line, you didn’t go with both. You went in and told Crush and that was the decent and honourable thing to do. And he was also decent and honourable by not minding… too much. I’d have been devastated, but that’s me.
The way I see it, you’ve found a way to reaffirm your love for each other – and that, my dear, is amazing.
Serious question, so please do not see this as a judgement, but I have never been mono, why would u have been devastated.
Proud? Yay! That means so much coming from you. You know I hold your opinion highly and you’re certainly a bastion of honourable behaviour. I know you’d have taken this very hard, so I’m so pleased that your comment was so supportive and non-judgemental. I know we have very different brains sometimes, you and me, so that means a lot. As for a reaffirmation of our love, I totally agree, I love him so much more for this little trial. Thank you.
I so appreciate all the responses and support so far. When I’ve had time to process a little, I shall be sure to reply to you all individually. Until then, thank you again. x
I meant to comment on this post a little earlier, closer to when you published it, sorry hun. Hopefully our chat elsewhere was of some solace to you.
I’m glad to read that you did come to your, not necessarily ‘senses’ as that would suggest you were out of them, but rather that you came to a sense of clarity about your situation and were able to take that step back and say, ‘No, this isn’t right’.
Use this event and turn it to your advantage – it seems to have made your relationship stronger, it’s reminded you of the importance of communication and sexual safety in less than certain circumstances, and you’ve not shied away from sharing this event with your blogging public – Sex positivity, my dear. Things *do* go wrong, but that doesn’t mean we hide it.
Reflect, review and move forward.

No worries, lovely, your chat support was just what I needed at the time. It was a massive help. Thank you so much for that and for your lovely comment here.
I was rather out of my senses, though. Drunk doesn’t cover that night! I am so proud that in my core I was still me and still made some good decisions about the situation.
I think you’re so right that this can only be built upon. Honesty, communication and learning from this. That’s what I’m going with!
