Highway to hell

LaVieEnRose​(sub female){Kintsugi} - Yuuuuuuuupppp I just vaguely say Facebook or something like that cause I don’t want to get into it and explain a dynamic and my interest in this lifestyle and my role as a submissive

Max Heathen​(other male) - I don't lie about being poly or being a Master but that is more from years of lies that I found I can't keep up with and how it made me feel like I was doing something wrong. In today's society wherein we push for acceptance and tolerance of differences, I find it has started more genuine conversations and friendships to be open, honest and sincerely happy. Most people wish they had it with just one person.
With that said, a past lie: Meh, those ole things? (Bruising patterns). Went out paint balling and had an argument with a hill side and all its tree posy. (Then retold a tale from my younger days wherein I was paint balling after a hard rain and ended up slipping on some wet leaves, rolling head long down a steep hill while bouncing off trees lol)

Azure Kitsune​(sub female) - I have wondered how to just tell people straight out.

Max Heathen​(other male) - People are predictable. Control the conversation, keep it light hearted and unashamed. Don't let off hand comment be an offense, turn that shit right around on them because ultimately, those who criticize for no more purpose then to tear down, are those who wish they had similar to what you do. You know what they are going to ask, so answer it in such a way that they laugh instead of judge... They will judge, but the outcome of the verdict is based on your testimony. If to you, its a Disney world, present it as such. Use the verbiage that makes them squirm a little... the feel of his strong hands when he holds me... *sigh*
If you're ashamed, why should others treat you as though its not shameful?
But, that's me. Another's opinion of my life, ranks right up there with how many grains of sand are on a beach.... Don't care, its there for me to walk on. 😂

Azure Kitsune​(sub female) - Ha yeah... I am not ashamed but I am certainly not ready to tell those in my small town in the Bible belt of the south how I live my life in private. Some I have hinted at, those who not so rigid.

rosethorn​(sub female) - Im pinching that painball story thing is im so clumsy people would be amazed i made it up the hill

Max Heathen​(other male) - 😂😂😂

OraclePollon​(sub female){NotYours} - Hehe. The thing about private, is it should stay private. I usually start with something like "Yes I get fucked, often" then they usually stop asking.

rosethorn​(sub female) - Im not sure what's happened to the concept of a private life recently

Azure Kitsune​(sub female) - Haha I actually had something similar happen to me today. My Dom found out my closet was a mess and informed me I needed to clean it. I was complaining to my coworker and I called him my Daddy... she was very confused why my Dad would care about my closet.

Max Heathen​(other male) - 🤣🤣🤣

Azure Kitsune​(sub female) - I think it keeps us all on our toes lol

MelMell​(dom female) - Well nowadays it’s a bit acceptable to call your boyfriend your daddy and I’ve heard some women call the boyfriends daddy a few times but some might still look at you weirdly

LongerJohnny​(dom male) - Yes, many times. But they havent always had to be HUGE lies. Sometimes they are the same things, only phrased differently:

Where did you and your gf meet?
1. My Answer - At a party at a mutual friend's place.
2. Truth - At an event.

How did you become close with someone so much younger?
1. We just hit it off and we really care for each other.
2. DDlg.

Why does it seem like she just... 'presents' herself to you?
1. She loves me.
2. D/s

Why does she wear leather chokers and ribbons around her neck all the time?
1. Fashion. it's her style.
2. D/s or M/s.

How does she get all those bruises all the time?
1. Shes very active and she likes to play hard.
2. Impact play.

Oh what a beautiful necklace! What is inside the heart charm - and why does it say 'property' on it?
1. A secret message from me. And because she always tells me "my heart is yours."
2. My cum. And because M/s, remember?

Uh, did she just call you Daddy?? Did she just call you Sir??
1. Yeah, we have special names we use for each other. I call her princess.
2. Because DDlg and M/s, remember?

So very often the lie and the truth are essentially the same.

MelMell​(dom female) - It’s better to phrase things in a way that aren’t really a lie as it becomes easier to remember. Really big lies tend to get too complicated and it’s easy to become exposed. I’m very private so I won’t talk a lot about my own personal life and the people I talk to more about my personal life are aware of me being a domme.

rosethorn​(sub female) - The problem i find with not talking about it is people find me 'odd' as im so quiet about someone im with. My ex and i (Dom and sub) where actually set up on a date by vanilla friends so that made it easier, bruises are awkward tho...
Recently ive tried being open about it and i find it can get awkward really quickly as people feel they can ask very personal questions that they wouldn't ask vanilla people or any conversation becomes about bdsm to show how open they are... again just awkward.
Was so much easier with the being set up story, im single most of the time or met through a friend seems to work for me.

SirsBabyDoll​(sub female){Pizza+☕} - I try to stick as close to the truth as possible so that I can remember...like what Johnny said, it's all about the phrasing:

Where did you meet?
Online.

But which website?
A blogging site.

Oh? What do you talk about?
Lots of things! Food, our daily lives, things that happen to us. It's quite diverse and is worldwide.

LongerJohnny​(dom male) - Exactly. And sometimes you just have to pivot.
- "So what do you two enjoy doing together?"
- "Ooh do I see cookies way on the other side of the room? Brb..."

MelMell​(dom female) - I’m glad I always tell people I play video games a lot and that my subs also play some of the same video games so the lie tends to be very small 😬

Johnny slave sub​(sub male){I'd most w} - Private is private. I agree more with MelMell, Johnny and SBD on this matter. There are some very close friends who know I'm sub in a relationship. ..cause they have known me for many years. Those we talk to a more trusting manner. ..over time come to know truth. To others...I give truth, but phrased in a way that doesn't really give them a more full understanding of the truth. To many very casual others...I just feel that I don't owe a response to all who might ask me a question. NICE BLOG MELMELL.....it's quite a thought provoking topic. 😊
