    My wife and I have been married for nearly 30 years and we’re just now learning to be our best slutty selves.

    We’ve been going places to meet others and learning about their lives while sharing ours. The best opportunities usually are at the places where clothing is optional or outright banned. It’s amazing how people open up and talk about all the things when the last physical vestige of hiding is removed.

    Some would point and laugh, but we’re not the ones that are lonely. Once you come to the point of reality that all of this ends, it’s easier to let go of the bullshit and just live.

    Get out there!

      I’m in the same boat! My kid is in his 20s and on his own, wife and I are like, “Oh yeah, this is why we got married. Remember when we used to…?” :)

        Congrats! That’s awesome!

        We were raised in a pretty strict environment and, unfortunately, didn’t get much of an opportunity to experience many things during our youth out of fear and shame. Once we moved away from that horrid place and our children became adults, we were able to relax and focus on us and the things we were curious about. That liberation has given us a whole new opportunity to find exhilaration on our terms.

        I don’t see us looking back any time soon.
