Agreed, the D/s side of the relationship has brought J an I MUCH MUCH closer much more quickly that I am used to. The level of vulnerability and trust is remarkable.

That level of surrender creates an atmosphere of intensity that I wouldn't trade for anything, but when I stop to look back at the high level of connection and passion, I can also see the potential for that passion to cause just as intense of a breakdown if "things go wrong." For the couples that have been together longer, do you find you deal with that successfully?
