Demanding jobs and BDSM

[phantasy_seeker]

Thanks for all the replies, guys. Just to clarify, I'm not in a 24/7 D/s relationship, only in the bedroom. Perhaps top/bottom would be a more suitable term, but as I don't dictate what happens in the bedroom (e.g. "tie me just so, then spank me..."), I figured 'bedroom D/s' would be more appropriate. Of course, there are playful spanks, gropes, etc at other times, but there is no true dominant or submissive dynamic outside of the sexual/bedroom context between us. That's the way we prefer it.

Another, somewhat related thing is, how to quickly tame the bad attitude I come home with on a regular basis. It usually takes me an hour and a glass of wine to decompress....

Yes, I have this problem too! Usually by the time we've had dinner and I've completed sundry tasks and chores that need to be done, it's 10pm. And often I feel so stressed that anything further than a quick orgasm just feels like a bother!

I know how that feels but from the other side, my sir has a very busy day so when hes tired things can get difficult. One of the best things to do is recognise that it doesnt say anything bad about you or him, sometimes life just get in the way. Pressure is your enemy, if your tired and had a bad day at work and then say to yourself "If i dont have good sex tonight it will have been....# days" then your not doing yourself any favours. Try and make other things more important, serving in other ways then it will get easier. Thats what did it for us anyways.

I used to think like that, but your looking at it all upside down. If you are truely submissive at heart then why are you trying to fit BDSM into your life work etc? you should be trying to fit your life into BDSM if you know what I mean.

I hope you find all that useful because it really helped me, just changing the way I was looking at things helped make the problems seem smaller and when things diddnt seem like such a problem I felt like I had more energy, and things worked better.

Oh and on a side note, you dont have to have hours and hours to have a good time, sometimes being pinned against a wall when your not expecting it when you get back from work can be just as fun

Thanks for sharing! Sorry I didn't clarify earlier, but yeah, we really only do D/s (or T/b, if you prefer) sexually. No serving and such. Life will always come before BDSM, for both of us.

Bdsm doesnt allways have to be some kind of heavy whipping session with rough sex while tied to some elaborate woodden A-frame with 20 feet of rope and nipple wieghts with a violet wand up ones ass in a well stocked dungeon.

It can be as simple as being told to hold your hands behind your back while having sex.

Or not being allowed panties while one is at work (makes butt plug days real interesting).

Or being taken into the bathroom for a cleaning and inspection.

(and the sex part doesnt even have to be there eaither, there are all sorts of ways to add some bdsm spice to your day to day routine and they dont have to require anything time intensive at all, especially if you live with your partner)

I love your advice! The suggestions totally had me fanning myself. I think the issue here, though, is that it's probably more about the stress of work than time. It puts me out of the sexual mood, and veeerryyy far out of subbie mood when I'm stressed. Definitely can't have distractions at work such as butt plugs - I truly wish I had the sort of job where being distracted was acceptable, but I can't. Mistakes I make can potentially endanger other people's lives (and have me out of a job for life), so I always have to make sure I'm in top condition for work.

Yes, we do simple stuff like hands tied to the bedpost, or just me kneeling and sucking him off, or having nipple clamps on, etc. But what I truly love and crave for is the long, drawn-out bondage and teasing (and he likes it, too). I suppose it's true, sometimes we just have to suck life up, and relegate the intensive stuff to weekends. Perhaps it does make it more special.

When I visited my girl last summer, wake up time included dom and submissive behavior (make and serve coffee, then hand-to-hair and mouth-to-cock, then forced to ride to her orgasm.) The intensity of the demands and her (trained?) hair trigger response to being used helps keep her on schedule and to work on time. Weeknights were far more vanilla but the overtones were there. Weekends were filled (she has a very active community) and varied. Munches, workshops, visiting kinky friends, parties. And if we stayed in, she was used often. Well, she was used often regardless.

Thanks for sharing. We did try morning sex before, but orgasm inevitably makes me very sleepy and relaxed - almost fell asleep again once after it. So, we began to reserve that for weekends where I don't have to drag myself up at 6.30am post orgasm..
