In this bonus 10-minute clip from our friends over at Diary of a Swinging Couple, Mike and Chloe sit down with Angelique just days after she found out they were in the lifestyle. They touch on the topic of soft swap versus full swap, what "unicorns" are, Angelique learns that Chloe isn't as innocent as she thought, and that swingers actually exist outside of the movies. Mike, Chloe, and Angelique have lots of fun and laughs but most importantly, they dive into how being in the lifestyle has helped improve their confidence. Fun fact: Angelique is Chloe's sister!
About Diary of a Swinging Couple: Diary of a Swinging Couple is hosted by Mike and Chloe, a Canadian couple that has been in the lifestyle for nearly 10 years. Throughout their journey you'll hear as they make new connections, have lots of steamy encounters but, most importantly, talk about the life lessons they learn with every fun (and some not so fun) encounter.
