Some days are hard…Working in the “kink” field, while having primarily all “vanilla” friends is not easy. I’ve told a few people that were very close to me what I do. Out of those few, I lost 2 friends who couldn’t handle it and chose to end the friendship. One initially about 1.5 years ago, the other just recently. With those who are left, conversation can be awkward, it’s the elephant that’s in the room. They won’t bring it up in conversation unless I do, and it’s obvious they hope that I will “come to my senses, and return to the real world” as soon as possible. I imagine this must be what it would be like if you had a friend with a terminal illness, you are not quite sure what to say or do.
Now granted I’ve made a lot of wonderful friends in the spanking world. And I am very grateful for them. But it’s still very sad that friendships that I had for 7-15 years, have ended due to me becoming a Disciplinarian.
I can almost here the Lifestylers & some ProDomme’s I know saying “Forget them, they were never your friends to begin with if they can’t accept you for who you are or what you do” or other sayings like that. But I’m not a lifestyler and I’m not out of the closet and most of my friends truly are vanilla. Now don’t worry, I’m not giving up being a Disciplinarian! Just needed to let it all out, and I’m sure many of you can understand and relate, since the majority of you are “in the closet” as well…
