Swinging is easy. Sex games are like a sport where you try to do your best and have everyone have a good time.
Polyamory is harder. However, I personally have been in 3 fairly long term relationships like this. The first was a foursome that lasted for four years. When we tried to bring in a fifth things blew up, which was pretty devastating. That was with my second husband who is now deceased.
With my husband now we have had long term relationships with two single women. The first one lasted a year, but she realized that she wasn't cut out for sharing and broke it off. My husband was really sad for a whole summer. I always felt as though she kept wanting everything to be "nice" but not "real". She was too reserved to tell us the truth when she was feeling insecure.
We've now been involved with another woman for four years. She is fabulous. From the very beginning, we determined that we would always be truthful about what we re feeling at the moment, whether it was negative or positive.
So, I felt comfortable saying, "I feel jealous today, can you please home", without her getting her feelings hurt. And she could say to me, "You are being really bitchy today, do you need a break from both of us?". .
In my favorite Joan of Arcadia episode, everything went bad and her mother said, "what happened?" Joan replied, "I had a failure of imagination."
I loved that. I resolved to not let a failure of imagination keep me from trying something new and to keep trying different things until I got it right.
There is an amazing book called The Ethical Slut. I highly recommend reading it as you embark on this new course.
After the first year, everything has been great. I enjoy the time we are all together and I really enjoy the time my husband spends with her away from our house, so I can just write poetry or play online scrabble for 12 hours.
You need to give yourselves permission to have good days and bad days. You need to be able to discuss your feelings openly without fear that the others will take offense and sulk. Nothing is static. You need to allow the relationship to ebb and flow just like the tides.
If you are secure in your own worth that will help too.
