What do you tell your family?

We told our family we were staying at an adult only resort, only a few people asked us which one and when asked, we said the name. Many in my family are Mormon, including my youngest sister - and she about coughed up a lung when she saw a sexy pool picture I posted. That's when I filtered my friends on Facebook and started restricting my pictures and posts to "close friends" that are not uptight. That worked well. I also stressed that is was topless OPTIONAL, not mandatory.

 

When we went to TTR Cabo, we told everyone we were headed to an "adults-only all-inclusive" but that phone service was spotty...we'd get online and email....most don't ask beyond that. Plus on 2 previous trips to MEX on our own we actually did stay at an adults-only AI resort down in Riviera Maya (Aventura Spa Palace) plus an AI in Cabo (Dreams...a massive stinky shithole...imagine your 1st room having light switches hanging out of their sockets with bare wires everywhere and your 2nd room not being a whole lot better) we thought was going to be adults-only only to realize our mistake when some kid does a cannonball right in front of us ruining our tasty beverages.

If they do inquire further, we tell the nosey nellies we were going to Nunya Resorts...as in nunya-bizness. Then let their imaginations run wild...one relative asked "Are you going to a Club Med? *gasp*" ;-p

 

I dont care anymore ,i will tell them where im going..family and friends will talk,, who cares,,i sure dont,im an adult and work hard if i wanna go topless i should be able to do so.its just boobies

 

We are making our first trip in Oct. We told our family the truth, we are going to Adult only resort in cancun, which mean no worries or headache about what our kids are doing or want to do. :lotsofmichaelfs:

 

You're exactly right.. it's nothing to be ashamed of.. when someone can actually see it for what it is.

What it *isn't* is an all out orgy fest. But, you say "Temptations" to someone, they look online and get connected to this site (or cancunswingers.com, or a bad tripadvisor report, or some lifestyles travel agent) and that puts an end of any sort of reasonable conversation. We just don't have the energy (nor the patience) to explain what it's all about to every person we talk to.. let alone our relatives. We live a relatively simple life and we'd like to keep it that way.

 

We plan on just telling people where we are going. We will say we wanted an adults only place to get away from kids and it was the cheapest we could find. Which is true.
If any one mentions it being a swingers place, we will ask them how do they know that.
We figure the fewer lies we tell, the better.

 

We told the family we are going to Blue Bay all inclusive in Mexico . We are adults and don't feel the need to be judged by others who have not experienced places like TTR. Besides when we told some of them we were going to Mexico they gasped and ask "Don't you know its not safe there?" and they usually forget all about what resort we are going to and end up debating the saftey factor instead.

 

True dat.

 

We leave phone numbers, the resort name and tell the family they are for real emergencies only! as we are too busy having fun with no kids , we have told them it's adults only and topless. Last year we went walking around the resort taking photos that we could show the family and put on facebook, we sent some of these to other friends so that they could do the same! Little do they all know what fun and mischief the oldies really get up to LOL!!!
