The Culture that has been here all the time

When I was introduced to BDSM relationships, I realized they had existed probably for all of human history. Religion and Western Culture distort this and BDSM itself greatly, and if anything, an incredible hypocrisy is always present. Using codes and euphemisms, even denial can mask the fact that many people thrive within this often unrecognized subculture. For example, my wife had all the earmarks of a pleasure slave and was generally devoted and submissive to me. In times of marital friction, I often heard the words from a counselor, "She just wants you to love her." "Love her," I thought I was, and now I know without a doubt I need to be a Dominant, not some preconceived idea that we are to live as equals: we are not only one can be a Dom and one a sub at a time, but, it is perfectly fine if switching is desired at least now and then.

Hey guys, between antidepressants causing ED and Cialis countering it, you can learn to regulate the situation with careful thought and information on how the drugs work. The doctors can help you find the sweet spot, and you may figure out how to use both - find a balance.

What % of the eighteen-year-olds do you think are still virgins? (Your opinion I have no statistics)

Hopefully, in your heart. All photos pixabay.co

Beautiful on the outside? We all lose our youthful appearance; even millionaires can only get so much cosmetic surgery. Sometimes, it makes them look worse.

Ease into your aging body with a warm heart.

The BDSM checklist is extensive, and when the percentage of what you are leaning toward, is a good beginning. Unfortunately, it can pressure newbies and the curious to feel compelled to plunge into the "life" when they rather ease their way in. So there can be interested men and women turned away at the gate. The liars and scammers are not so fussy. It is unfortunate that opportunists and manipulators sneak in and become pretenders.

The best way to enter is with ears and eyes wide open and having researched the lifestyle. The Cage has many helpful resources, but knowledgeable and careful interaction within candid conversations would be significantly beneficial to this end.

This is my honest statement:

Once introduced to BDSM I read and observed the popular websites and acquired a starting point. I discovered I had Kinky tendencies all along and so did my wife. I cannot say I was a natural Dom but my wife for certain was (before her ADA) a natural sub.

I had a brief BDSM lover that added immensely to my knowldge and I even got to practice some of the life style.

My wife's ADA (i.e. Bruce Willis) is advanced, no interest in the sexual intimacy we once had. She can behave more like a toddler - playing with dolls especially. 

I have had many a paid aide when I could afford them, so women visiting us is normal for her - irrelevent why they are here.

So if I was given the chance to continue my education in The Life style I would continue slowly - it is stalled at this time.

I have exhausted all my attempts to get caregiving help, but I will continue caring for my wife of forty years at the level of a nurse for as long as I can. If I were to acquire a BDSM companion, I would not expect her to do my caregiving job directly. She can help with running the home and enable me to seek the healthcare I now have postponed because I can't take my wife to my appointments.

I have had an average, successful life and always had some friends. These friends knew me, and I knew them because we shared time and places. Co-workers and people from church, community, and neighborhood all interacted directly. I have mistakenly accepted people I have met online in various ways, changed email and messages, and somehow assumed they were equal in friendship to those I know personally in the past. I was and still am wrong. There is no known way these online acquaintances can compare to real friends. I look at pets and swear I know what they are thinking because they interact and communicate in some way.

These people online are clever and seem to be experts at manipulation. No. They are not friends.

I had a dream during which a younger self met me as I am now. He said, "Old man, what are you doing? You made better choices when you were my age." "Your adventures in your teens and twenties? You are lucky to be alive." "Your dad made a mess of women's lives, especially your mom, and so you worked hard not to let your omnipresent libido emulate his life."

"Allow me to list what was a good choice and what wasn't."

Good:

Chose to raise a family with your kids from previous marriages and your wife's - a blended family. A son and a daughter each.

You were carefull when it came to how much money you put into automobiles unlike your father.

You purchased several houses that were ok and in places good for the kids.

You chose to remain loyal to your wife when she was diagnosed with dementia in 2017 - early onset she is eight years your junior.

You tried to get a situation where you would have help caring for her by moving to Pennsylvania - wound up buying a modst home there.

You sought help as an Army Veteran.

So, in that list, I ignore mistakes now and then, especially when I let drinking alcohol cloud my judgment.

Bad:

Your ignorance of caregiving and not understanding what it means to a family when dementia is diagnosed.

You expected too much from others and that angered you.

The move from NJ to PA and your wife's prognosis stressed you and you were hap hazard when you shed possessions.

You squandered your assets in a futile effort to achieve two things simultaneously: Help with care for your wife and having an intimate compantion woman for you. You fell "hook Line and Sinker" into the hands of internet scammers. You put out thousands of dollars for nothing.

You learned from past mistakes in real eastate, fine art and popular music.

Crossroads: Wake up and think carefully; do not repeat your past errors; work to minimize your loss and continue caring for your wife.

What is my problem? There is no intimacy, and the doctors tell me it is necessary for a healthy life.

What does having sex have to do with it? Isn't that a song?

I am trying to understand why I am the only one who is taking care of my wife with ADA, and I am so utterly alone and feeling it all the time. Is there anybody out there? pixabay.com

One benefit of living into my seventies is that we have lived through scary times. Hiding under the desk at school in case of a nuclear attack. Dictators and belligerents pounding their fists on their tables, criticizing the US. Polio and cancer threaten our health. Gasoline shortages. Inflation. Immigration concerns. Spies and counter-spies. Clashing ideologies.

Guess what? We survived. Enemies became friends, and friends became enemies. 

Meanwhile, in the hidden agendas, greed and profits played a big part in keeping the world in one piece.

Yes, the headlines in Tabloids and their equivalents do a good job of keeping us on edge, joined by fake news online. And don't forget the apocalyptic and post-apocalypse movies added to our uneasiness.

Yes, if you are a victim of COVID, live in an area where a disaster occurred, or are in a war zone, the worst may happen, but thinking of life in these United States, we seem to get through it all and life goes on.

So far, at least.
