We don't feel that there is any shame in this as we all share the same interest. Keep the chat vanilla but friendly.
Very, very slowly for the same reason you don't squeeze the soap too hard. I was lucky in that my wife, who came from an extremely conservative background and was very interested in exploring life and different experiences. The conversation was fairly easy and we ended up at the old Marquee within a few months of having that conversation. You might already have some clues as to her acceptance of the conversation. If she is a firm believer in monogamy..... The answer to your question might exist in the strength and openness of your discussions in other areas of life. That is a reality. If it isn't strong and open, then swinging will cause you more pain than pleasure because you will have conflicting opinions about people and what is acceptable in your swinging experience. Choose a very soft intro to the conversation if you have that openness and trust. Timing? She must be very relaxed. Content? Ask her if she has ever fantasized about including other people in her sexual experiences. That sounds harsh, but a no is a no. Discomfort and doubts? Back to the relationship thing. Talk. Talk. Talk. This is certainly not the Holy Grail of Swinging, just my opinion. You know your lady better than anyone else, and that is key. I have given my opinion, hopely others will join the conversation.
We have been in this lifestyle longer than some of our new members have been alive. We have been very active and had a lot of fun, most of it originating here. The pool was a great place to get to know people, as were wall posts. What happened? Where are the real swingers we knew? If they have moved on... can we get a hands up from the new real swingers?

If you know you’re going down on someone or someone’s going down on you, eat pineapple. 🍍 lots of it. Makes everything taste and smell better. Avoid onions, curry and asparagus 😬
Does the pineapple have to be on pizza? That is a bridge too far for me... Just teasing!
Is that caring too much or controlling too much? The only time I would ask my wife to check in is if I know she is traveling far or has to go to a dangerous area. Too much care might be a lack of trust. If anyone is at that point, the problem is already there. No attack, just an opinion.
We haven't been for a long time, but for those considering going... just do it. If you think you are "too big", don't. There are all sizes and shapes there. If you fear the perves, they are the ones not welcome. Not you. It is a place where nudity is key. Not that I have any experience but after dark fun does happen, just discreetly as children are around.
A qualified yes. Not about to proposition our close friends but if the conversation with a friend goes in that direction and it becomes a mutual agreement as per the arrangement with my lady, then yes. Many lifestylers would probably agree with my next point. We are already playing with close friends, even if we first met them in the lifestyle and they then became close friends. Some really beaut souls in the lifestyle that I keep close to me even if we no longer play.
