New to poly but not non-monogamy

I am married to the beautiful Melissas for the last 14 years. About 4 years ago we started swinging. It was fun until she found a favorite swing partner. I could tell they were starting to get feelings for each other and I was starting to feel left out. Not from the lack of partners but the lack of intamcy from others. We have talked many times about swinging feeling cold and wanting more of a relationship with people. That's when we met our current partners K and L. Wow. They have really opened our eyes to the whole poly world. We have been together for 4 months now and it has been absolutely amazing. We live 6 hours apart but we have found many many ways to get to see each other. It is unreal how natural it feels between the four of us. Melissas and K are so much alike. They are both extroverts and hard headed and stubborn. It's fun to sit back and watch them clash on little stuff. L and I are both introverts and are both more reserve and light spoken. We spend a lot of family time together since we both have kids. And truly I think that helps to build the friendships. I am excited to see how this will go and am looking forward to building these relationships together. K and I both suffer from anxiety and it is nice to be able to talk to someone who understands and is going through the same stuff.
