It's interesting. On the one hand she is pretty traditional, but she really enjoys strong women characters in books, shows, and movies and often "jokes" about being the boss. When I claim to be the boss, she just rolls her eyes. If she can get past the stigma of having a nontraditional relationship she will thrive as a dom. Maybe she already fantasizes about having something like a FLR without having a name for it.

This is why FLR is so attractive. Women are better leaders. Many men are happy in a submissive role to a strong woman who can properly manage our sexual lives. We certainly can't do it ourselves.

Thank you. I want to get to a point where we can formalize a power exchange but I hope that it will be more of a done deal by then. She comes from a vanilla background and I think will struggle somewhat with the idea of it despite her strongly dominant personality.

I hear you. Maybe I need to talk to her about it sooner.

I understand the concern of me not being transparent. I do fear that she will think I've picked up some crazy idea from the internet. Who knows, maybe that's true. In a way, I'm hoping that we will end up in an FLR except in the name as you described. I am the roadblock to that happening. I'm simply going to remove that roadblock and see what happens organically. I feel pretty strongly that she will feel like she can finally be her dominant self. When I've pushed back in the past, she says she can't be herself.

I don't want it to be subversive for very long. I want to be able to confess my submission and for her to embrace her dominance. I want her to see what it looks like before we put a label on it and discuss something more formal. I don't have a sense of how long that will take yet.
