:-[Our first nude experience was at a swimming meet. Peter had wanted to try naturism for a while, but I was very unsure. The first time we went to the swim I got as for as the carpark and then couldn't go any further. The second time we got as far as the door and I turned around again. The third time we actually got through the door and were met by very friendly, welcoming people which reassured me a little. We went into the changing area and removed our clothes and I then went as quickly as possible and got into the pool feeling very self conscious. A couple of people came to introduce themselves and started talking to us and welcomed us. I then began to relax and wondered why I had made such a big thing about it and after that we never looked back. We loved the feeling of freedom you get from not being restricted by clothes and still do.
Thanks for telling us, it is reassuring that other people felt apprehensive at first, it is good that someone came up and chatted!..and the freedom is great!
