I have been contemplating my deepest, darkest fantasies… the man from another life, completely violating, so unusual… A conundrum of masculinity raging against compassion.
A sadist inside white armor, a gentleman encasing a monster, a demon coaxing the pain from deep within, and then soothing me, gingerly, like an angel with ethereal love.
It is fantasy.
Impossible fantasy.
Never an expectation.
But if this is the place I’m allowed to be the most honest version of myself…
Where I do not have to be perfect and complete…
Where I am allowed to explore the things I cannot in real life…
I fantasize about that man often. Dark and vicious, but calm and patient, who knows the power of sweetness alongside the torture.
A man who can hurt and humiliate me in ways that always keep me coming back for more. A man who would then allow me to curl up in his lap, to feel cherished and owned. A man whose knowledge of me would be so deep that a simple look or motion could bring me to my knees. A man with whom my aggression would quickly be turned against me, forcing my submission to bloom and stamp out my defiance.
Until a decade ago, I didn’t allow myself this fantasy. Until five years ago, I didn’t understand it was a real thing. Until a year ago, I didn’t know it was something people could incorporate into their relationships. Until a month ago, I didn’t realize how much I really, desperately wanted it.
Now, I force myself to evaluate how important it is.
Because I did not marry a man who is capable of the dark. He is a simple and good man. And we have a lovely life, that I often look right past.
(If you are reading this, you must hear this part, babe. It’s the most important thing I’ll ever say on this blog.)
I love that man. I love our family. And I’ve been deplorable at being a part of it lately. I’m sorry for that. No depression or self-exploration should ever come before love and family. More than anything I have EVER fantasized about, I want to be with him…
Completely, 100%, heart, soul, mind and body.
Of course I want HIM to decide how much pain I can take, how much humiliation I deserve, how much sex I get, and whether I get release or not. I want HIM to have full say over my body. I want HIM to push my limits.
That is what I’ve always wanted.
But I don’t NEED any of it. I only need HIM.
I need the sweet, patience. I need the tender lover. I need the man who serves his family. I need the wonderful father for my son. I need the humble helper who takes care of so much that I don’t have time for… because I’m busy fantasizing about what I want, instead of evaluating what I need.
I need the soft and hard.
The good day kiss.
The cuddles in the dark that turn to insistent teasing.
The playful spanks that lead to the pussy smacks.
The bites. The spooning. The grinding.
The mind-blowing orgasms that set me on fire.
All the things he already gives me…
Oh yes.
I’m giving up the fantasy. The impossible fantasy.
Because I married the perfect man.
I chose him 12 years ago. Out of dozens. I met him and thought:
“He’s too good for me. I’ll have to trick him into thinking I’m better than I am.”
He gave me an orgasm the first night we made out.
I loved him before I ever knew his middle name.
Weeks before I told him so.
Months before he reciprocated.
“He’s too good for me.”
I fell madly in love with his family, his interests, his loves, his stuff, his style, his everything.
And when he asked me to be his bride, I couldn’t believe it had worked!
“He’s too good for me.”
As I sit back and think about that, about what those first few years were like, forcing myself to be “better” for him. Teaching myself to be a “good girl”. Burying my slutishness as we made our life, setting it free only in the bedroom.
“He’s too good for me.”
My God, all this torture I’ve put myself through in the last six months. Refusing to see that the fantasy was unnecessary. That the sadist was already inside of me. Right along side the masochist. Performing a sublime dance of insanity.
I married the perfect man, for me.
And yes, he is too good for me.
The sadist will continue to inflict his damage, while the masochist in me writhes and seethes for it.
But my white knight, my gentleman, my angelic partner… my Husband…
He will soothe me, with his perfect love.
And perhaps, one day, the pain He gives will be enough, and I can give up the sadist completely.
Or, maybe, in the future, the masochist will no longer need so much, and I can bid her adieu.
It may not be perfect. And you may not understand.
But he does. He understands me. What I need, what I want, what we can be together.
And it is perfect.
I BELIEVE that this is not “too good for me.”
