Being in love, just like swinger couples, is one of the most exciting feelings. The very first moments of closeness, the very first butterflies, and very first goosebumps. With time all this magic gradually transforms in the trustful and supportive connection between two individuals. If things go as planned, in the next few months, everyone in your surrounding already knows his or her name, favorite movies, and least favorite foods.

No, no and no, and here is why!
