Well, I'm not in that exact position, where all kinkiness is set aside, but my boyfriend has really toned down on being dominant. While I was living 6 hours away from him, it seemed like he was more into it. It is possible that he just can't handle the time it takes to be what I want him to be because he is in school. He used rope yesterday, which was something that has only happened once in the past three months (being restrained at all that is).

As far as giving up being kinky? No, I couldn't do that. I'll just keep bugging him until he gives in. Heh.....

Are you saying that your partner is completely against anything kinky whatsoever?
