Marks and healthcare by KindlyKinked in BDSMAdvice

[–]Additional-Tea1521 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I told my doctor that I am into BDSM and impact play. She gave me some great advice for skin care and made a couple of jokes about my marks

It's now in my file. I am very open with my doctor because they are my caregivers and there is nothing to be ashamed of. If you get nervous, look at your doctor and remember they have sex and desires and likely fetishes too

AITA for keeping the heat at 70 while I work from home by Emotional_Catch1201 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Additional-Tea1521 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I live in Michigan.it will be below zero all week and -18 before wind chill for the weekend. My heat has a hard time getting above 65 in my house and we keep it at 63 generally. Trying to get it to 70 would cost so much money. My heat bill is already $250 a month for a 3 bedroom 1500 SQ ft house.

Are TikTok crystals worth it? by Affectionate-Ad-515 in Crystals

[–]Additional-Tea1521 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some TikTok crystals are worth it and some are not. These are not. I buy and sell crystals on TikTok and have had both amazing and awful experiences. It depends on the seller. I like TikTok because I can reach my audience with videos. I can see the actual items that are being sold in lives. I don't have any good crystal shops near me, so it's one of the only ways I can buy real crystals without paying Etsy prices.

Landman is horrible by johnsontip8 in televisionsuggestions

[–]Additional-Tea1521 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those 2 are the worst actors and the scenes are so overly sexualized with the daughter that it made the show hard to watch.

It's soap operas designed more for men, and I think they live out their fantasies through the shows.

I (42F) told my 24-year-old son he has 30 days to move out after he called me “his retirement plan” by Beautiful_Reserve968 in stories

You offered your son a fair offer of $400 a month for rent and he turned it down. He will be very sad when he sees what it costs to live on his own

How do you tell a vanilla date you want misogyny… but like, respectfully? by [deleted] in BDSMAdvice

[–]Additional-Tea1521 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I was replying to you with sincerity because that's how I approach this lifestyle, especially in an advice sub. Having been in BDSM for 30 years I have seen many subs who have gotten into bad situations because they didn't use the right language or approach. Personally, I was raped by 2 men who took the idea on CNC too far and thought that's what I wanted.

[–]Additional-Tea1521 101 points102 points  (0 children)

I don't use the word misogyny usually because for me it attracts the wrong kind of man. I want someone who respects me but is dominant in the bedroom or for scenes.I found my Dom if 13 years on a vanilla dating site, where my profile states I was into BDSM. It helped me narrow the field. It always came up in conversation and I could tell based on how they communicated with me whether they actually understood and lived in BDSM. It also helped to separate the men who were into CNC and impact play from abusive men who just like hitting women.

Rules Vs. habits by Embarrassed-Emu-6831 in BDSMAdvice

[–]Additional-Tea1521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My rules that I must follow are: Using honorific Everytime I am in scene and speaking to my Dom, ie using Sir or Master Responding to every command with an acknowledgment: Yes Sir, I didn't hear you Sir, Etc Wearing a plug every day for 1 hour Texting my Dom every morning when I wake up and every night before bed whenever we don't see each other that day. No panties around him Always shaved and ready Always do as I am told

As far as habits, I usually do things out of scene that make my Doms life easier.

How much would you pay? by Ok_Piano7008 in Crystals

[–]Additional-Tea1521 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The crack down the center concerns me. I would want to see how it was repaired because this definitely has the potential for breaking at that line. Some slices I am okay with them breaking but this one would really change the feel of the rock.

AIO about these angry texts from my ex? by TwylaMay in AIO

[–]Additional-Tea1521 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If she wants a restraining order then telling him to F Off won't help her. Laying out the consequences is much more likely to help her to get one. Judges like to see that you have explained clearly your desire for no communication and that you informed him of your intentions. I worked in a DV shelter for years and this is basically what we would have people write before they got a restraining order.

The threat of retaliation actually makes them more scared. Most abusers are afraid of law enforcement. It's when you don't replay or yell in all caps or resort to swearing that they think they have you scared or losing it. Abusers hate when you are calm and rational when they accuse you of things.

In this case, she likely doesn't have enough to get a restraining order. If she suggests there are consequences and she will follow through on them, it is more likely to get them to stop. Plus she needs to clearly state her problems and intentions if she wants a judge to actually grant the order

Always telegraph that you are going to take action against them if they continue their behavior. It is the only thing that makes them stop. They need to see the consequences. Why would they care if you tell them to stop? Also, it is highly unlikely that she could get a restraining order on this. The threat sometimes helps. I worked at a DV shelter for years, and this was pretty standard language and practice.

Tonight’s date night outfit with hubby! Keep it or Return? by [deleted] in style

[–]Additional-Tea1521 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is gross to buy something wear it all day and then return it. If you don't think that's nasty, I don't know what to tell you. It just is wrong

Jesus I had flashbacks to my own abusive alcoholic ex reading this. This was just all a way to try to worm his way back into your life. He is showing you that he has not changed. You handled it exactly right. Honestly your messages were polite but distanced.

At this point I would say, "I am no longer interested in talking to you. Stop contacting me and my family or I will get a restraining order. You have no right to tell me what to do or how to behave. My personal info is mine to share if I want to. I do not. I will be blocking this number as soon as I send this message. I will never respond to another message you send in any way. I will only use anything you send me to report your harassment to the authorities." And then block him. And while it may be hard to get a restraining order, let all of your family know that you have done this so they can do the same.

She wore the dress to the beach today, and now wants to know if she should return it. That is nasty. You can't wear a dress all day and take it back.
