We started out as a *vanilla,* I guess you would say, relationship.... neither one of us knew yet exactly how it would progress. I was naturally the submissive type, and he the dominating type, but we didn't begin our relationship with any kind of BDSM involved. It evolved for us as our relationship did. Some spanking here.... some tying up there.... one thing led to another and another and another.... and here we are today - married and happy in our D/s roles.
I know that is not the typical way that people in the lifestyle will find their partner, but just as a footnote, it does happen that way every so often, and we are proof of it.
Best of luck to those that are looking, I hope you all find exactly what you are dreaming of!
