Longer-Term D/s Considerations

Things unseen often affect relationships. This is a (perhaps infrequent) chance to look at some of them through the lens of a decade or more of online experiences with a variety of submissive partners.

Many here are absolute monogamists toward kinky relationship.  Some are even prone to become morality cops.  I'm going to set them aside for now, accepting as valid their feelings, (if not their occasional scoldings).

Others are various degrees of lenient regarding multiple arrangements.  It is this part of the population which has my attention here.

Most commonly this seems to involve a Dom who might enjoy two (or more?) subs, and quite often works to keep them apart, unaware of each other. Then there seems to be a small and generally quiet group into poly D/s of one sort or another.  I set these in my mind as opposite poles.

But what lies in between, in the shadows?

Might there be other successful arrangements where the grey zone this side of openly poly might function, and might those varietions manage to be successful?

I'm thinking of a possible triangular hookup, maybe two subs serving the same Dom/me,  not together, but in contact with each other, maybe exchanging views as friends independent of the Dominant?  What would such a dynamic be like? Would they want to gang up on their Dom,  or trade experiences in a sort of mutually supporting way?

Or might a sub, maybe one on line, want help using impact tools, or wax, or bondage, where another set of hands is essential?  Can that sort of Dom's helper (would you call him/her a 'Domlet'?) fit in to expand sensations for the sub? Or would the helper become a sort of hands on coach to either a Dom or a sub?

There are probably other permutations floating around here under the radar.  Doesn't our world offer endless fascination!

I'd enjoy hearing from anyone with experience at one of these alternate arrangements, and how it seemed to work..Thanks!

Thecharmedmuse​(switch female){My Wildman} - The closest experience I’ve had that I can offer up to the table wasn’t with a Dom. I had an open relationship with a switch. He really did not do a lot of topping in our relationship, to my dismay, but he had another sub that he did. I was fine with it. I was figuring myself out anyway. We had a fantastic relationship and he would ALWAYS get my consent on everything. And vice versa. I was less likely to go outside the two of us. Sometimes we’d invite a third to join us and it was great fun. The key is in being honest and talking.

MasterBear​(other butch) - Just spent the day with My Love and our third. We have been a triad for 8 years. I am Master , My Love is slave, and our third switches. It is very fluid. My love is not a slave to our third. I am not a Master to our third. Our third is submissive in nature but they and I dont have a PE relationship.

Finished​(switch female) - I go back and forth between loving the poly (or variations) and just wanting 1:1. I find in just play, there’s usually no problem, but in ongoing long-term... well, that’s another kettle of fish. I’ve enjoyed sharing the responsibilities of meeting a Dom’s needs with others but I’ve had a couple of experiences where the Dom couldn’t meet all of the subs’ needs. In essence, he had spread himself too thin. But I’ve also had a really good experience where this didn’t happen, so I guess what I’m saying in all this rambling is that it depends on the Dom in many ways. And in each of the specific relationships established. But just as a side note, I am still very good friends with a couple of fellow subs from the past... with the Doms? Not so much! Lol. 🙂

ADIDAS - I am in an online relationship that MyDaddy and I would like to bring in a 3rd just to have the pair of hands for my Dom. There are just certain things that I plainly can't do well enough myself to excite MyDaddy and/or myself. If we had an on-site pair of hands doing the bidding of MyDaddy, in the fashion he would do them, I believe that would heighten our pleasure extremely! Specifically impact play. The fact that we both find her attractive helps as well. The tiny rub is she's vanilla with slight kinky tendencies. Also, my bff. Not to worry. We've already hashed out the ramifications and we're tight. No worries in the friendship department. We haven't done this yet. Anyone's thoughts are truly appreciated! Thanks for the thought provoking post... 😘
