mina, what you said here is really the epitomy of how it is - perfect:

"After the cutting there’s this overwhelming feeling of “I love you” and total submission as he cleans me up. The need for more usually subsides then too, because I’m used to it being “the end” when he’s done with the blood and cleaning me up, and I’m ready to just cuddle in his arms by that point".

The cuddles and love felt after are of the extreme.
