Grief and Sex

Over two weeks ago a very close family member died unexpectedly and under difficult circumstances. It has been an awful couple of weeks and it will continue to be so for many months, if not years. I have had some strong sexual reactions to my loss and I thought it would be useful to write them down because writing is how I process. Then I googled sexual reactions to grief and was dismayed. Most articles claim that sex drive decreases with grief, especially among women. A few places recognize that hypersexuality is a reaction, but there is very little about it as a positive force, or indeed about engaging with it when it is a response. This is nonsense! I believe that as long as a grieving person (me!) is not being destructive and is not doing anything to harm herself or others, then she is grieving appropriately.

I heard about my loss at 11pm while I was at a friend’s two hours from where I live with my husband. I had to get home to him, get my transport arrangements sorted to get back to my family, pack, and try to get some rest before leaving to go home to my family all in the space of seven hours. The only reason that I did not have sex was because of the time, but my libido went through the roof.

My mind is what you might call overactive, or at the very least easily distracted. Even during sex my mind wanders onto random things. There are only two moments where my mind cannot be distracted without major effort on someone else’s part: when I am having an orgasm or in subspace. Herein lies my reaction to sex the last fortnight. I have been rather needy for sex, and of course I have snuggled and been intimate, but I have not wanted slow, romantic lovemaking. What I have wanted is the intensity of D/s lovemaking or D/s fucking.

My husband is also grieving and his initial reaction was not sexual. But my desire felt so strong that I even considered contacting my old Dom, James, for sex, or asking hubby if I could have a session with him, or somehow pursue a sexual situation in some way. But, this would have been damaging and destructive. Being intimate with James would have been a short-term fix for a long-term problem and the fix would have caused a whole heap of other problems. I am grieving, I am not capable of making decisions that will affect my future and I have to recognize that. Luckily I did realize that! I also realized that sex was not a need in the short term, but also that it was perfectly fine to want nothing more than to be dominated to the extent that I could find calm in a subspace. But that had to happen within my existing safe and happy relationship structure.

Last night my husband and I had sex again for the first time since our loss. It was the first time we both felt comfortable with what the other wanted and needed. It was romantic, gentle, soft, kind, loving, and involved him giving me commands. I didn’t reach a subspace but I had wonderful orgasms as he came down my throat, my mind and my body and my heart were free with the person I love. Performing sexual acts while grieving should not be something to be ashamed of, but it somehow seems to be seen as such by many.

As people we are physical, mental, and if you think that way also spiritual beings. In order to be complete people our hearts, our bodies, and our minds need to be connected. We need to be able to release our energy in the ways we need to in order to find balance again. A major hole in my world has been made, my balance has been broken and it feels like hell. I am having nightmares, my appetite is off whack, my brain feels like sludge and I burst into hysterics at random times, but at other times everything feels like nothing has happened. I know this is all normal. I am in the early stages of grief, it will take a long time to process what has happened. There will be many changes to my needs and desires. I need to be gentle on myself. I need to let my energies come out because bottling them up will lead to disaster. If some of these are sexual energies and involve begging my husband to fuck my mouth then that is necessary too.

Multi-Tasking Masturbation

Hubby is on holiday and seeing as I have no other partners in my life, this means masturbation. Lots of it. On the night of the US Presidential Election I was in bed reading male/male porn involving a werewolf and 16 year old human (it’s a thing), and half listening to the election commentary on the radio. It was a surprisingly heady combination. I was idly, half-heartedly playing with my clit and occasionally fingering my arse and my cunt. At some point I read a particularly delicious piece of porn and decided to call it a night and let my thoughts wander.

For reasons unbeknownst to me, I started fantasizing about pissing in the bowl of lemon mousse I had made for myself. This image was interspersed with brief shots of a person ordering me to kneel on the floor and lick the piss-soaked mousse like a dog. This person was telling me to do this via Skype. Somehow I knew this person had a partner who didn’t know about me. All the while in “real life” I was listening to the radio.

In my fantasy I started smearing the piss-soaked mousse over my breasts and cunt, using the sticky mess to masturbate with. I knew, as you do in dreams, that I had been told to do this over Skype. I also knew that the partner was overhearing our conversation and our sexual gratification. I knew an explosive row was about to happen but I never got to picture it. Instead my mind wandered back to the mousse, while my physical self listened to the radio. 

I had one incredibly powerful “thunderbolts” orgasm, and the thing that set me over the edge? The radio broadcaster saying “it is over” (Obama had won). How fascinating! 

A combination of dubious werewolf porn, American politics, piss-play, getting caught, getting someone else in trouble, and food-play was an unexpected, bizarre and convoluted collection of images, events, and ideas to masturbate to. It is absolutely worth it though, letting your own mind wander and enjoying the random sounds, experiences and thoughts influencing your pleasure. When we fantasize we should embrace the direction our mind and body takes us because trying to control our fantasies is surely a repressive act. I can’t wait to find out what the next unusual collection of things are that set me down the path to wonderland.

But, first, I really need to make me some more lemon mousse because really? Pissing in it, licking it, and wanking with it? Hot.As.Hell!

Hard Limits

I have a few hard limits. These can most easily be classified as:

  • No medical play
  • No age play
  • No hard gags (balls etc, other kinds of gags are awesome, but I hate my mouth being forced open with no possible movement available)
  • No sharing me with others (I choose who I play with and when)
  • And the biggie, absolutely no foot play at all!

Got that? No feet!

I hate feet. I hate all feet. With.A.Passion!!!!

I don't even wear shoes with open-toes because my feet are never on display. Even on the beach shoes only come off when I'm in the sea. Still, this week has been all about the positive, and so, I attempt to break my phobia with a photo challenging my own limits. In case you doubt the ferocity of this phobia, even taking the photo was traumatic, and while writing this post my toes are curling up with ickyness.



This post meets the "Thirty Days of Kink" prompt "Day 10: What are your hard limits?"

Kink Shame

My last post was a piece of erotica about humiliation punishment involving urine play, blood play, and vomit play. I love it! But it makes me feel ashamed. In the comments I received great feedback, to which I replied:

“Posting this online was very difficult for me, as I am still struggling with feelings of shame associated with some of my kinks … My feelings of shame are particularly bad at the moment. Last night hubby spanked my bum and gave me very mild bruises for the first time. He then had bad dreams about doing it, so has gone back to square one.”

In reply to this comment, Molly over at “Molly’s Daily Kiss” wrote a wonderful reply to me in an open letter. It is fabulous and if you ever experience feelings of shame, or you need a reminder why you shouldn’t, I suggest you pop over there and have a read.

By means of a thank you to Molly, and to explore the idea further, here is my reply.

Dear Molly, Dear Readers,

I have always been very heavily invested in sex. Even when I was a very small child I was obsessed with self-pleasure, although I didn’t know it was masturbation at the time. I would rub my poor, traumatized brown bear against me. My very favorite thing to do was to swing off door handles and rub the edge of the door between my legs. I had no idea what I was doing, but I knew I shouldn’t get caught! When I was about 7 I got found in bed naked with a female classmate by her parents. They didn’t allow me around her house again, I never knew why.

By the time I was in my early 20s I was having a lot of sex with lots of different people. But I was never monogamous. I thought I was a slut because of the number of people I would have sex with – and the frequency. I would have sex with one guy, go home and have sex with my partner because the first guy hadn’t satisfied me. Sometimes people did try kinky things with me but they always stopped experimenting far sooner than I wanted. Their responses to me varied. One lady said to me “God, you are such a bloke.” One guy kicked me out of his house because I asked him to rape me. I can cite a dozen examples of partners laughing at me, looking at me in disgust, or calling me a whore because of my fantasies and desires.

Then I met hubby and I fell in love with him months before we had sex. By the time we did, there was no way I was going to give up on him even though he had virtually no sex drive and not a kinky bone in his body. So, I gave up on sex, almost completely. I persuaded myself that my life history was because I was a slut, sick in the head, and addicted to sex. At the time, all of that helped to get me through virtual abstinence. Eventually I cracked though, how could I not? Nic and I went to sex therapists. We opened our marriage, I had a D/s relationship with James, and Nic? Well, all of this has helped Nic’s sexuality to blossom.

The downside is that my cravings have come back, my need for sex to be central to my life, to be part of my routine, to be kinky and fun and experimental and serious. Sex is central to my identity. Most of the time I do not feel shame for this. But I am ashamed of some of my kinks, of my desire for humiliation, of the things I am prepared to do when I am feeling submissive, of the excitement I feel when I am “forced” to do something which disgusts me. But I love it and nothing gives me greater sexual pleasure. Nothing!

I had never been ashamed of enjoying spankings. But then Nic spanked me and he had a bad dream. Then I felt shame. I felt shame because something I wanted gave the man I love pain.

Intellectually I know that I have nothing to be ashamed of, that I am very lucky to be able to explore my desires (intellectually, emotionally, and physically), that I have a husband who has never consciously rejected me for anything, that I have friends who don’t care what I do. But for me, that is the very worst thing; I know I have nothing to feel ashamed of, yet I still feel shame.

My priority has to be to learn how to manage my needs, my desires, and my kinks, while overcoming my feelings of shame, and not harming other people.

So, what now? Well, Molly, your advice has been fabulous! On another post on my blog you had already suggested The Loving Dominant by John and Libby Warren and Tristan Taormino’s The Ultimate Guide to Kink. I already had the latter. It is a wonderful book, but not suitable for total newbies I think. Besides, it does alienate me a little because of the lack of “filth” (“People who enjoy scat … are beyond the scope of this article,” page 229).

But, I did go out and buy The Loving Dominant. Perhaps fortuitously, it arrived in the post yesterday and I read most of it while Nic was at work. When he came home we had a very long, intense, and loving conversation. He admitted that he very much enjoyed spanking me. It turned him on. He also admitted that it turns him on to give me commands and it turns him on to be dominant. But that scares him, just like you said it might! He is scared of becoming an arsehole. He doesn’t want to bully me or hurt me or do any of the other things that men aren’t “supposed” to do. So, I made him read five lines from the Chapter “Are You a Loving Dominant?” These are those lines:

Do you get as much pleasure or more from erotically exciting your partner as from your own enjoyment of the sexual act?
If this is true, you are likely to be a good dominant. The essence of this kind of play is to take another’s power and then use it for mutual pleasure. If you already seek to maximize your partner’s gratification, you have a mindset that will adapt well to BDSM.” (3rd edition, page 5)

When Nic read this he smiled, looked at me, and said “But I’m like that.” I nodded and he went “Oh.”

We chatted some more and looked through the book a little. We agreed to try and open up a basic D/s component in our sex life and see where that takes us. I think part of my shame in recent months has been because I never really discussed it with Nic. All the while he was experiencing new and exciting things with me, I was feeling more shame as I needed yet more sex and more kinky times. What I really needed to do was to talk to him. Until recently, until he saw my reactions to his own Dominance, he never really understood just how much it meant to me, and how much fun it could give him. By bottling up my shame and his desires we caused ourselves unnecessary grief. I wonder how many people have the same!

Nic’s growing acceptance of himself, together with your kind words Molly, and the feedback I have had from others (publically and privately, you know who you are!), are helping me to get over my shame. It will be a long process, one closely bound up (if you pardon the pun) to exploring mine and Nic’s sexuality together, finding ways to explore my more unusual proclivities without pushing Nic too fast.

I will keep you posted! And next time I feel sex-negativity I will shout for help from the rooftops, possibly naked!

Thank you!

Emily

The Punishment (erotica)

This is a weird and interesting sexual fantasy (30 Days of Kink, Day 6). It gets me incredibly hot, bothered, very wet, and very lusty. But, it isn’t to all tastes, so I’m going to put warnings here because it involves a lot of likely hard-limits for people. In case you don’t want spoilers I have hidden them. Highlight the text to find out what’s in the story:

Public humiliation/punishment/submission Blood play Urine play Vomit play

 
The Punishment

It’s a hot day. I’m wearing a little blue cotton summer dress that clings to my curves. You are wearing baggy shorts and a tee-shirt with some lame science joke on it. We are surrounded by your friends laughing and joking, and carrying hampers and blankets. We all stroll through the woods and arrive at a clearing. The sun sparkles through the trees, light dapples on the ground, the sun makes my hair shine red and yours go just a little bit blonde.
 
We sit and snuggle on a rug, laughing and joking with your increasingly loud friends. Then we start kissing, our hands caressing each other’s arms, our fingers entwined. I rub my thumb around your palm in circles. I lift up your hand and suck your fingers. You trace your fingers around my lips; you move your fingers down my neck, trailing them across the curves of my breasts, brushing your fingertips down my spine, along my thighs, until finally your hand slides under my dress. My breath hitches. Our kissing becomes more passionate, we start rubbing ourselves together, little groans start making their way out of our throats. The rest of the group notice, they start coughing, calling our names trying to get us to stop, but we are too caught up with our passion, and our hands too busy exploring each other to stop. We rub each other’s cock and cunt, we nibble each other’s ears and lips, and then... then it goes very wrong.
 
In the heat of the moment with our bodies entwined, with a reluctant audience, I bite your lip too hard. I draw blood. You slap me round the face and call me a careless slut. Chaos erupts. Your friends rush towards us, some shout at you, some drag you away from me. I'm crying, pleading with them to stop. “No, you don’t understand, I am his slave and I hurt him. I deserve to be punished. My body belongs to him, I must be punished. You must let me be punished. If Sir wills it you should all stay and bear witness to my shame.”
 
Half the group leave in disgust, a few try and get me to go with them, some scream and shout at you. I just sit there and hang my head. I caused this chaos, I must wait for my punishment.
 
When there are only us and seven others remaining, we sit on the blankets and we all eat and drink. There is a tension in the air, something electric. Your friends chatter silently with you, stealing glimpses at me. Some of them have a glint in their eye, a couple have something akin to pity. They all look hesitant. All the while I say nothing; you do not talk to me or look at me. Finally you get up and you simply say, “Stand.”
 
I stand before you, terror coursing through my veins, matched in equal measure by excitement and anticipation. The calm before the storm is always the worst and best single, solitary moment; that moment when I am never quite sure what is coming next. You waste little time. There is no anger left in you now, you never punish me in anger. In your eyes I can see the need to wield your power over me. You need me to obey you, to fear you.
 
You tear my dress from me, ripping it in two. The force of it stings and knocks me slightly off balance. My panties and bra quickly join the remnants of my dress on the woodland floor.
 
You point to a large oak tree. Without either of us saying a word I walk towards it and wait. You tear my dress in strips, never looking at me, never saying a word. Your friends stare at you with grotesque fascination. They look at me in bewilderment and fascinated horror.
 
You come towards me; you turn me around and roughly throw me against the trunk of the tree. I wince as my nipples are dragged along the bark. You tie an end of one strip of fabric around my ankle; you wrap it around the tree trunk and tie the other end to my other ankle. I cannot move; I cannot even shuffle. My balance will never hold like this. You know this. You tie another strip around my wrists so my arms are hugging the tree. If my legs give way, my arms will stop me from falling completely. You place a plastic bottle in one of my hands. It can only mean one thing, I am to be gagged. My throat clenches, my eyes sting, my heart pounds. Not here, not in front of everyone. I plead silently. I say nothing.
 
You call one of your friends over, a guy whose name I can’t remember. He has been enjoying the whole thing; his eyes have been devouring every part of me. He has no compassion in his cruelty and I am grateful you are nothing like him. But still, you use his delight in my shame. You ask him to piss on a scrap of my dress. I can’t see him but I can hear him laugh as he takes his cock out and pisses. I can smell that he hasn’t drunk much water; his piss smells pungent and revolting. My nose recoils at the smell. You tell me to open my mouth. I do as you command. The scrap of piss-soaked cloth is placed between my teeth, the piss squeezing out onto my tongue and slowly making its way down my throat. I choke at the taste of it. You tie the gag tightly behind my head. Still you say nothing. Every part of me feels shame and humiliation.
 
I can sense the shock and disgust around me, the gasps of horror. But I can smell the arousal, the juices people are secretly trying to hide, from themselves and each other.
 
I hear twigs and branches cracking, I hear birds singing, I hear leaves rustling. I feel the sun on my back, for a brief moment I feel peace. Then you strike.
 
I have never felt anything like it before; my back feels like it is on fire. It is like 20 strikes of the cane all at once, all in the same spot of my back. I scream out as best I can. Then I feel your hand spanking my arse. Each time you smack me you knock me against the tree, the bark biting into my skin. Each smack jolts my back and sends waves of agony through me. Suddenly I realize I can hear counting “12, 13, 14, 15.” One of the two women still remaining is counting each strike behind me. When I realize she is your ex-girlfriend, your best friend, I burst into tears. The humiliation is too much for me to bear. I try calling out for you to stop, but the gag is too wet and too tightly bound to move. I could always drop the bottle, but, no, I’ll wait just a little longer. I must not fail my Sir.
 
Then it comes again, the fire across my back, the searing agony like nothing on earth. Everything stops, somebody gasps. I hear one of your friends start crying, telling you to stop. He asks me whether I am ok. I cannot answer him; it is not my place to answer anyone but you. I feel you undo the gag. I choke and cough as I gasp to control my breathing. Still I say nothing. I feel your fingers brush along my back; it stings but is comforting. I hear someone retch behind me. You put your fingers in front of my face; they are covered in blood, my blood. I feel a shudder of desire and want rush through my body. I flick out my tongue, I try moving my head towards your fingers. I feel your other hand go between my thighs. My cunt is dripping wet. “Please Sir, please” I cry out, begging you to touch me. You smack my arse again as you put your bloody fingers into my mouth. My blood tastes salty on your fingers. As I lick them clean, I feel your other fingers fill my cunt. I am so wet and desperate for you, I cry out. You stop and smack me again. Finally you speak to me, “You understand why you are being punished?” I nod. “You understand your infraction was as severe as it has ever been and deserves the severest form of punishment?” I nod. “You will not orgasm today. Do I make myself clear?” I moan and groan and more tears come to my eyes. “Do I make myself clear? You may answer me.”
 
“Yes, Sir, I understand, I hurt you and I deserve my punishment. I will not orgasm today.”
 
“Good girl.”
 
You speak to the others then, not many are left. A couple had been too disgusted by the beating and the blood to stay; another was too horrified by my willing submission. There are three men left when you speak to them. “I am going to stand back and watch. I want you to piss on her, to wank over her, to shoot your come over her, but you are not to touch her. She is mine. Will you do that for me? Will you join in her punishment?”
 
I hear them say yes. I start sobbing in shame and disgust and humiliation. I sob because I know how much the sensations will arouse me. I sob because I know how much being aroused by such humiliation will shame me more. I sob because I know I am not permitted to orgasm, to let myself lose control of my body. I sob because I know I will have to experience their actions and not my own body’s release.
 
I hear and smell their piss first. It stings as it hits my back, washing my blood and sweat to the ground. Then I hear their hands rub at their cocks, their foreskins move back and forward, the slick sounds of wet hands moving over dicks. Then I feel the first burst of come, it shoots over my arse. I feel it drip down my thigh. Another aims at my back. The third man, the cruel man, comes in his own hand. He places his hand above me as you tell me to open my mouth. I feel and taste this man’s juices drip into my mouth.
 
“Enough” I hear you say. You then speak to the one remaining girl, a short sturdy lady I had only met once. She had been standing next to me, looking me in the eyes the whole time, I barely noticed her. Was she making sure I was ok? Was she getting turned on? You speak to her and tell her she should do anything to me she wants. She pisses in one of the left over picnic cups. She grabs my nose in one hand, holding it shut. Her strength is overpowering. I open my mouth to breathe, struggling even then, as she tilts my head back just with her one hand on my nose. I feel my throat choking as she empties the cup down it. A whole cup of her piss choking me. It is too much, too fast. I gag and retch. My stomach lurches as I feel and taste the bile and vomit shoot up my throat, over my tongue and out, down my chin and chest. She lets go of my nose then and starts smearing the stinking, slimy mess over my breasts. Then with her same hand she lifts her skirt and fingers herself. She disgusts me.
 
I feel you then. I feel your warm arms stroke my shoulders. “You’ve done well, my slave. It is nearly over. Are you ok?” I nod, feeling your warmth and comfort. I feel bliss as you talk to me, caressing me with your words and hands. You move your fingers between my thighs again. I focus all my thoughts on you, on how you must be feeling, on what your fingers must be feeling as they get soaked with my wetness. You sense my control and congratulate me, offering warm words of encouragement, you take your fingers away and I moan in relieved despair. I hear you play with your cock; I hear your juices spread. Then I feel you spread my arse cheeks and tease my hole. I feel your cock push into my entrance. You fill me slowly at first, stretching me slowly. Then you move faster and faster while you watch your friend fuck herself. You tell me how good it feels to fuck my arse. As you thrust against me I feel the tree biting the flesh on my breasts and the bruises on my arse deepening, and the searing pain on my back warm my whole body. You get faster and push deeper as I have to stop myself exploding on your cock. I beg you to come inside me; I need you to come inside me. I need you to be quick, to help me not break your command, to fill me. Then I feel you and hear you release. I relax.
 
As you untie my hands and feet, I feel the first of your juices trickle out of my arse and down my thigh. You run a finger through it and put it in my mouth. “Well done my darling, well done.”

My Kinks (30 Days of Kink)

Golly gosh, where to start? Maybe a bog-standard bullet-point list. I’ve done everything on this list except the last one. Most of them I have done many, many times. A couple of them I have done only once or twice.

  • Arse play, anything at all really to do with bums and bum-holes, mine or others. It can be filling them, slapping them, biting them, licking them - they are just delicious!
  • Having sex so that others can hear, see, walk in on me, (especially, but not only, when my partner objects) and mainly without the consent of the person who ends up witnessing the act (I know, I know, it’s wrong)
  • Listening to others having sex with or without their knowledge
  • Masturbating myself to orgasm while in bed with my partner, while my partner is asleep and my body is touching theirs as much as physically possible, without them waking up
  • Being punished, especially humiliation as a form of punishment, and being punished for being rude, disrespecting, or disobeying my Dom (yes, I am a horrible bratty sub who needs a very, very firm Dom. I need to fear him and what he will do, but trust that he will be fair and consistent. I’ve never had a female or genderqueer Dom so I don’t know how that would work for me)
  • Blood, especially consuming (mine or my partner’s, but not menstrual blood)
  • Urine, especially being washed with my partners urine, or masturbating with my own (I will consume it but I hate the taste so will only do that when instructed and feeling very subby)
  • Feces, especially catching it while I masturbate, or licking it off whatever has been up my arse (unlike urine it doesn’t taste bad, although I have never eaten an actual poo, just the small and/or slimy stuff that sometimes gets stuck on whatever goes up the arse. This probably doesn’t make it sound any less gross. I’m even grossing myself out writing about it, but who said kinks are logical? BTW When Nic read this he said I needed to get over my shame. Bless him! I am trying, but it is hard, a post for another day I think)
  • Being bitten so I’m bruised and/or bleeding
  • Putting household objects into my vagina/anus (spoons, bottles, hairbrushes etc)
  • Orgasm denial
  • Being called a slut and a whore, and being used like a prostitute (I’ve been “paid,” it wasn’t as exciting as I’d hoped. I only have sex with people I want to have sex with and getting paid just felt stupid)
  • Ministers, yep, as in vicars and priests (Years ago I came very close to having a relationship with a vicar, the only thing that stopped us was the fact he was in a monogamous marriage. A few months ago I was propositioned by a very sexy vicar. Alas it could have only been a one night stand [yuck!] and it would have been at a work event [stupid!] and I would have had to get permission from both Nic and James in a very short space of time [impossible!]. I still hope I will get to fuck a vicar, but finding one who will have a relationship with me as a married woman is very unlikely. *wail*)

My absolute biggest kink is arse play. I could probably give everything else up if I were able to have cock up my arse on a regular basis. .... thinks about that statement ... nah, who am I kidding... I will always want to get caught having sex and I will always want to be punished.

 

This fulfills the “Thirty Days of Kink” prompt “Day 2: List your kinks.”

Submission Craving (30 Days of Kink)

Technically, I am a Switch. I enjoy being Dominant and having power over a person’s emotional and physical well-being in sexual situations. This may be simply about controlling a person’s sensations and orgasm, or creating a painful and humiliating situation for a person. It depends on mine and my partner’s mutual needs and wants.

But, at heart, I’m a submissive.

Yesterday I felt lost, vulnerable, frustrated, tense, and angry for most of the day. It was for one reason: I had a deep, desperate craving to be spanked, caned, humiliated, used as a toilet, and controlled. I wanted to be made to cry and then given loving aftercare. I still have it today but to a lesser extent. My response has been to deny myself orgasm, to see if I can be my own Dom. But I also thought that maybe if I just burnt or cut myself a little, I could get the same kick. I didn’t try it because I knew it wouldn’t work. It isn’t the act itself, it is about giving myself and giving control over to another person.

I spoke to hubby about it, about what sexual craving and desperation feels like. He felt sorry for me. He looked at me with pity. That made me feel awful, like a sick person who needs help. When I told him that is how I felt for most of the first couple of years of our relationship, he was devastated. Of course, there was nothing he could do about my craving, nor did I want him to. Yesterday I needed a true Dominant to take me in hand.

I emailed my ex-Master, James, (we have gone back to being friends, well, we are trying). Not because I wanted to play with him there and then, but because I thought he would understand. I thought he would be able to listen and say “shit, I’m sorry, wish there was something I could do.” He suggested I find a Dom online. As if! I’m not someone who can give myself over easily. It takes someone very special to make me submit. (Ironically, I find it easier to be a Dom.)

While I crave the physical feelings of being Dominated, it is the psychological, the emotional aspects which I really need. This is a more long-term, intense, lifestyle-type feeling. And this is the very feeling which James ran away from. I have no idea why, I doubt he does, he isn’t one for deep self-reflection. Maybe he was scared of his own Dominance? Maybe he realized he is only a sexual Dom? Maybe he didn’t understand how I could be happily married yet want to have someone control me the hours and days I’m not with my husband? Maybe it was only the physical distance between us? Maybe he just didn’t want me enough?

Do I still want James as my Dom? I don’t know. I trust him less now. I gave myself over to him and I don’t think he knew how to deal with that. But he was the perfect Dom for me for a few months. I would love for him to help me through my cravings, whether just as someone who doesn't think me sick, or as someone who gives me commands when I have cravings. Is that sensible though? Perhaps not. We do seem fairly incapable of just being friends though. We are perhaps the most sexually compatible it is possible for a pair to get. That is hard to let go of at the best of times, and when you have the filthy kinks we have (ones spurned even by much of the BDSM community), that is even harder to say goodbye to. Neither of us seem quite able to do so.

One thing is for sure. I have subby cravings. I have to find ways to manage that without giving up on sex completely (which is what I did for many years) and without impinging negatively on my marriage. If I weren’t so gorram picky, I could find another Dom to help me, but I am, so I’m stuck!



This (sort of) fulfills the “Thirty Days of Kink” prompt “Day 1: Dom, sub, switch? What parts of BDSM interest you? Give us an interesting in-depth definition of what that means to you. Basically define your kinky self for us.”
