So, I've read this post twice now. After the first read I was like...what the heck is he saying? I understood the questions put forth, but they didn't seem to match the words above. The second time I read this I thought, why not write down what he wrote so that I could make sure to comment on each section so that maybe an answer could actually be given that makes sense to each thought originally posted. So here it goes... 1. WE ARE A TRUE MARRIED COUPLE OK. Super. That means it was done right? I hope my marriage is true. We spent a lot of money for it to turn out to be fake. That would be bad and my parents would be none to happy. 2. WE LIVE A 24/7 BDSM S/M LIFESTYLE I had to read this twice as you put the same letters...twice. If you say BDSM, you've already incorporated s/m into it so that was redundant and confused me for about...3 seconds. Also, it sounds like b/d is not part of what you do but rather just s/m. I could be wrong, that's just what it looks like in your post. So 24/7...As most others have said, this is very difficult to do. Is sleeping now part of this? I mean, I do that as part of my 24 hour day and it does not involve anything but my eyes being shut and well...sleeping. Is your wife tied down while sleeping? Showering...is that somehow altered to be anything but cleaning herself? You can't tell me that every activity done by her, you are watching over and controlling. 3. SHE WEARS A COLLAR 24/7, IS BRANDED AND PIERCED Again, sleeping, showering... When I was in college and pledging my fraternity (it was co-ed, it adopts fraternity just as everyone in the world is MANkind, it's just the way it is) we had to wear pledge pins. Of course that's impossible to do on a 24/7 basis. There is a rule when dealing with this...you don't have to wear it during the 4 S's...sleep, sex, sports and shower. Do you let that rule apply to your wife? Do you not let her do certain activities because she wouldn't be able to wear the collar? I'm not trying to be disrespectful here but...is there a line? Being branded and pierced is great and that is a 24/7 thing. I can't imagine the collar is on every minute of the day. 4. I AM EXTREMELY DOMINATE AND AT TIMES EXTREMELY SADISTIC IN WHAT I DO TO HER First let's learn the English language...Dominant, not Dominate...same meaning, different context. I would say that most Doms are at times extremely sadistic. Sadistic isn't just physical, it's mental, it's emotional... There are so many different definitions of that word. To answer the question about whether there is true love between the parties I first would have to ask...Do you love your wife? Not once did you make mention that you and your wife were in a loving, married s/m relationship. Your post actually makes me wonder if you do love your wife. I would hope you do and that you didn't just marry her to be dominate ([;)]) with her. My husband and I have been involved with d/s for about 9 and a half years. We are 26 years old. Yes, we actually started way back then. It was simple stuff, nothing anyone here would find remotely interesting. Personally I have been involved in some way or another since I was 14. Ah, internet. Anyway...I was the one who brought him into it when we were 15 (him) and 16 (me) and we have explored and figured our way through to get to where we are now. Every step of the way we have made it a point to make sure we know how much love there is for each other. At the same time...we have 2 other play partners (hopefully soon to be 3). Does true love exist there? No way Jose. If it did, I'd be gone. There is a different kind of love that Slipstreme explained...friendship. In no way can a friendship type love be confused with true love. Fantasy and play acting. I would say a lot of what is done is fantasy to some degree. The great thing about fantasies is that you can decide which ones to play out and which ones to keep as fantasies. I am very fortunate enough to be able to play out whatever fantasy I might have and my Dom, of course, has the same right. I would think if this was all play acting...those people wouldn't be on these boards, they wouldn't even know how to find this site. And, if you are play acting, I want nothing to do with you because you probably don't know what you're doing. The only way to participate in this lifestyle is to be serious. People are not toys and neither are the "instruments" used for controlling, playing or whatever else you are doing with them. The actions done in a d/s, s/m, b/d or whatever other letters you want to add in there, relationship do not dictate whether there is love or not. True love is there if you want it to be and it is mutual between the two (or more, whatever you're into) people involved. It most certainly can be there but, it doesn't have to be either. ~Scorp~
