This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human. My parents invited their friends on a family vacation and now I don't want to go. Am I the A-hole? And Riley, if your parents brought your friends, no, their friends on vacation, would you go? As long as they bring my friends. Fair is fair. Yeah. My parents' friends are cool. No, my parents' friends are very cool. I've been on vacation with some of them, and it's been so fun. Are your parents' friends also your friends? No. Like the adults? Yeah. I wouldn't say like... But you're an adult, Sophie. What? My parents' friends' children are my friends. But none. So you can't go up to like your parents' friend and be like,

Dan, what's good? How's it hanging?

No, I probably wouldn't say that to anyone though.

But I've hung out with them solo because I,

this is specifically for like my like mom's friends in Australia.

Like I've, I mean, I wouldn't say they're friends in the same way that my parents are friends with them. But, you know, like I would say I'm very close to a lot of them because I grew up with them. So they're like somewhat family in a way. I'm just saying like, why can't they all be friends? Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends? That's a song from the hit movie Bridge to Terabithia. So, Relative Young, 9037 says, This post will probably be long and I'll try not to ramble too much and hope that this post is easy to follow. Rumble. Rumble all you want. We're all about rambling. But I'm not sure how to handle the situation at hand, so I need advice. For context, my parents are swingers. Oh, friends. I see, I see. Yeah, okay, this makes a little bit more. It changes everything. I found out about them being swingers right after I graduated high school in 2016. Oh, that's a horrible time to figure that. Well, like you're going into college. No, I feel like that's a better time. Like if I were in high school and I found out that, you know, there were a various with I think that would be worse. I don't know. That your parents are swingers. Like, give me a moment

of time where like, hey, by the way, we're swingers and I'd be okay with that. I think, I think it would have to happen at the, you're a child and you're like, this is normal. Like, this is just how my parents are. Or it has to happen much later in life, I think. I think those are the two options. for me personally.

Everyone has their own things.

And this is not to say,

you know, later in life, I think. I think those are the two options for me personally.

Everyone has their own things.

And this is not to say, if you're a swinger, swing away.

Keep swinging that thing.

But, you know, as a, like a, if you were a child of swingers, you know, how do you deal

with it?

If your parents are swingers. Oh, dad. Oh how are you coping with that? How do they tell you? How are you coping? I never really had an opinion on the matter until recently. I don't care what they do behind closed doors, but I personally don't want to see it in person. I'm sure that makes me sound like a bad person. But I've always accepted them for who they are. it's honestly just really weird to see my parents make out with other people when they're around a group of people. Yeah, no, you have every right. I don't even want to see my parents making out with each other. Exactly. I was about to say that. I don't want to see my parents making out around other people. That's weird. Keep that to yourself. Please. Or with other people. Yeah. With each other. Yeah. Anyways, they are in a

relationship with another couple and have been with them for almost two years. They being the other

couple just recently moved in with my parents because they lost their house and couldn't find

another place in time. Whoa. That's a lot to deal with that. It's like, well, depending on

whether or not the OP lives with them at the time, that would be a lot to deal with that. It's like, well, depending on whether or not the O.P.

lives with them at the time.
