So a while back a friend suggested I start a blog as therapy (long story, quite boring, No beer involved).
That's not THIS blog, but I figured this had to start somewhere.
A few months ago I signed up to have a PT run me through some gym session, I had come up to the point where I was going but not doing much, fellow gym goers may be familiar with hitting a plateau and wondering where to go from there, so I picked my sorry carcass up and did the most sensible thing I could do at the time.
I asked for help.
Now as obvious as this reads and sounds, like many people I have been brought up to try and trouble others as little as possible. In my day to day life I'm generally quiet and reserved, at least till I get used to you then good luck stopping the dark humor and innuendo. So for me it was hard to ask for help to reach out to this PT and discuss what I wanted, because when I said it out loud it sounded stupid and childish, but they sat there and listened ... then told me I'd need to eat more. So positive results all around.
Anyway the point of the title was today was session 8 and also leg day, and getting up from my chair hurts my legs.
So winding our way down this windy beach to see if the pub is open it also got me thinking a long while about what I want to achieve here in relation to my personal life. What is it that I want? And the answer changes for all of us, some of us want a play partner, some of us want a relationship with a dynamic that we enjoy and with someone who will also enjoy it, some just want to introduce themselves to the community.
BDSM often being looked at in the vanilla world as at best a quirk and at worst, well lets not go there, I've struggled for quite a while to even begin broaching the subject "publicly" so for me coming to this site was similar to me seeking help from the PT.
For the UK based of us are there any places that hold munches or meetups that can be attended now that lock down has been lifted? Or a list of places to find them?
Anyway That's enough rambling today.
Keep well Everyone.
