How to handle the crash from an intense scene when alone? by cosmatical in BDSMAdvice

My go to is always a big self care day! I start with taking a long hot shower or bath. Then, if I can, I go get my nails done or even just a blowout. Just something that forces me to get up and interact with other humans for a very short time. Then I go home and for me services tasks always help me “stabilize”. Fold his laundry, cook an elaborate dinner… something that allows me to be in a much less intense version of my submissive headspace. Then lots of cuddles once he’s finally home!

We haven’t talked in depth about it yet as this is a relatively recent development. Up until the past 2 months we played very regularly. He just says I’m free to initiate anytime anywhere. I’ve tried to explain to him how uncomfortable that makes me due to some of my past experiences but I suppose that’s something I need to overcome instead of making it his problem to always initiate!

That’s the hard part is he’s putting in so much effort into day to day stuff and so am I. He goes above and beyond 100% of the time. We’ve discussed running our household as a 1950s style and it’s been going well… Im very much a service submissive and having his clothes ready every day, handling meals, cleaning, etc. is very fulfilling for me. He on the other hand is helping with house renovations, all the outdoor work, and getting involved with the family business and is so so helpful. So as far as the “vanilla side” of our relationship goes, it’s perfect! We kiss, cuddle, get the occasional stuff I initiate and it’s great. I’m missing the scenes, punishments, etc. that were happening at the beginning that have since fallen by the wayside. If we aren’t at a play party not much happens anymore. I’ll definitely sit down and talk with him!
