I'm BACK ... sort of

Has it really been a month Dear Readers? What a god-awful 30(ish) days it's been.

I'm going through some profound personal stress, basically in all areas of my life:

  1. Alastair has been confirmed as a permanent resident of The HOIR. Last weekend I moved out of my house and in to a basement apartment downtown until we can sell/purchase a house
  2. I found a job... sort of... was given a verbal offer for perm/full-time dream job starting in January, and freelance until then. Given the uncertain nature of the ad world, my freelance position has become closer to part-time hours at the moment, which is a little stressful. I also still don't have an offer in writing for the Jan switch-over, so I'm still trying to job search at the same time.
  3. Other areas of my personal life haven't been all sunshine and roses either, but that's all I'm going to say on this topic... I don't feel like discussing it publicly yet.
Sooooo... I'm going to try and start posting again, and I'll try to keep the angst to a minimum... but I can't promise anything.

Follow-up to Last Night...

Chat Log from This Morning:

Him:: Good morning....Are you there today?
Rubenesque: Hello - work is busy, replies will be fragmented
Him:: That's fine....Thought you were in a meeting.....I'm leaving here at 11:30 anyways....How are you feeling? I am feeling a bit shaky myself still because last night was so exciting....Had a good sleep though
Rubenesque: To be honest, I was unimpressed with your lack of respect for hard limits, and your views on aftercare do not mesh with mine. Sorry, but I'm not interested in continuing anything with you.
At this point I blocked him.  The following are e-mail messages and chat logs that Google saved after I blocked him.

Chat Him::
I am confused.....I did apologize for forgetting about your hard limits and I did rectify the situation....And as for aftercare, I'm not sure what you mean.....I am saddened that I will not see you again but I do honour you, your spirit, and your beauty

Email:
One final point is that I just reviewed your BDMS checklist and yes, unprotected sex was listed there as a NO, a hard limit ....So I had more than one warning beforehand ....You are right and I am humbled...If you could do me the favour though and let me know what you meant by aftercare, I would appreciate that...Be safe

Hello,

Your view on aftercare seemed to be that solitude and very little contact was appropriate.  In general, when a submissive drops they are essentially going in to shock - they need warmth, sugar, contact, reassurance... being left alone is NOT the best thing to do.  In that headspace, a submissive is incoherent and incapable of properly articulating their needs and they need someone with them to take care of them...  If I were a less experienced submissive it would have been a very disturbing experience for me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I realize that this is a more serious turn to this blog, but
1) I feel that this is something that has to be shared so that less experienced people understand that what he did was NOT OK and
2) we can all giggle a little hysterically whenever we encounter a head of garlic

This week is the Everything to Do With Sex Show... I will be there pretty much all weekend so I hope to have some better stories for you!

WARNING: This post may be disturbing or triggering for some. Viewer Discretion is advised.

Reply to one of my ads - a gentleman who seemed to really click... we spent much of this last week chatting, both online and on the phone and everything seemed to really mesh well...  so we made a play date for last night...

I arrived and parked in the back, as requested.  I called to let him know I had arrived and he said he would come and help me with the toy bags.  He comes downstairs, but in the dark and the rain and the streetlights behind him, he's in silhouette.  He takes one of the bags and tells me to precede him up the stairs.  As I enter his apartment he drops the bag he's carrying, claps a hand over my mouth and tells me not to make a noise.  He grabs me and manhandles me over to the couch and bends me over it, pushing my face into the cushions, pulling my my skirt and pushing my panties to the side.  He enters me roughly and starts fucking me hard.  I'm shaking and whimpering... he grabs my arms behind my back to immobilize me and fucks me harder... pulls out and using my own juices as lube enters my ass and starts fucking me hard... all the while telling me what a fucking tight cunt I am, and how this is what I deserve, and to stop making noise or I'll be sorry... he stops after my second orgasm and helps me stand up... I'm trembling and gasping for air and my clothes are soaked in sweat.  He leads me to his washroom and tells me to tidy up and compose myself, then tell him when I'm ready to come out... turns on the light as he closes the door. 

I wash my face and use the facilities... take a few deep breaths and think about how well the evening is going so far...  we had discussed what a hot button kink rape play is for me, and I thought that the evening was getting of to a great start.  I let him know that I'm ready to come out, and he opens the door,  turns off the washroom light and immediately blindfolds me.  My first thought is "ok, I'm betting he doesn't look like his photo... otherwise he'd let me see his face clearly... I've seen his silhouette so I know he's not hideous, we'll just let this play out"

He leads me back to the living room and lays me down on my back on a futon on the floor.  Tells me to lay still.  He grabs some rope and starts tying my wrists together, my inner Domme criticizing his technique... once my wrists are secured with my arms stretched out above my head, he starts undressing me... the buttons on my shirt.. my skirt.. my bra... finally my panties.  Stocking and Heels stay on (and in fact, did not come off the entire evening).  As I lay there shivering slightly, he leaves me to go to the kitchen and I can hear the sound of metal on metal, and other random kitchen noises... he returns and joins me on the floor, when suddenly a leather clad hand is put over my mouth and I'm told to keep my fucking mouth shut and stay quiet as he starts fucking me again.  It's at this point that I realize... he's not wearing a condom... Unsafe sex is a HUGE hard limit for me.  He fucks me a while longer while I struggle against him and he threatens me.  He climbs off of me and I thank my lucky stars that he did not ejaculate in me.  Reduced risk.  He grabs a knife and starts trailing it over my body... describing all of the damage he could do... hacking off a nipple... cutting along my belly or my throat... I'm lying there completely still, in shock.. we did not discuss knife play, and while I enjoy it, it's certainly not a first date activity!

The knife gets tossed aside and suddenly there's something cold on my nipples... then a hot wet mouth... and then through the fog I hear "well that wasn't the smartest thing I've done, now I'm going to taste like garlic" ... A remote part of my mind starts giggling hysterically, wondering what the hell is going on.  He says something about putting the garlic back in the kitchen and I lay there, dazed and confused... quickly entering subspace despite wanting to keep a clear head. He returns and after some light touching, I sense light and heat.. very close to the blindfold.. and the faint scent of candles (slightly overpowered by the smell of garlic) ... he teases me with the candle... threatening to spill hot wax on my nipples... holding on at the edge between fear and safety... pleasure and pain...  after some time he stops and asks if I've like some water. I agree and he goes to get some.

He returns with the water, unties my wrists and helps me drink.  He then asks me how I'm feeling.  I tell him I'm confused because I knew we had discussed safe sex.  He gives me some bullshit about 'being in the moment' and his desire for me 'overwhelming him' and how he has a policy not to apologize, just to rectify and assures me he'll use condoms the rest of the evening...  asks me to repeat my hard limits, which I do, to which he replies "oh yes, I remember now, I do owe you an apology"

I float for a little while longer and he turns me over, a cushion under my hips raising my ass up... pulls out his strap and starts strapping my ass and back... assured me he won't leave any marks... after a good amount of strapping he starts fucking me again... This time I can tell he's using a condom... I let myself sink a little further in to the endorphin high and he continues to strap and spank me.  After what seems like forever, he stops and runs his hands over my back and ass... I whimper and he takes me in to his arms and talks soothingly to me... rolls me on to my back and grabs one of the vibrators he told me to bring...  goes down on me and brings me to orgasm .. 3.. 4... times? I've lost count, I'm in a haze of endorphins and adrenaline like I haven't experienced in a *very* long time... 

He pets me some more, talking soothingly and asking how I'm feeling... "floaty" is my reply...  he says something like "in that case" and rolls me over again to strap me some more while he fucks me.  He finishes and I start to shiver... I'm cold and alone and the part of my mind that's still engaged tells me that I'm dropping... I don't think I've EVER dropped before.  I manage to get across to him that I'm cold, and he brings me a blanket, tucks it around me... and then... goes to sit on the couch?  I lie there shivering on the floor, covered in a blanket while he sits and meditates on the couch or some shit.  After a while I become coherent enough to ask for some water, which he brings me... and then asks if I'd prefer his bed.  I nod shakily and he helps me stand up... I'm still wearing my stilettos... I stumble over to his bedroom, slip off my shoes and slide under the covers.  He drapes them over me and then... leaves...  I drift for a while and then... what's that that I hear...  it sounds like a TV show...  I make my way out of bed, grab my shoes and blearily enter the living room.  I'm able to see him for the first time clearly...

He SAID he was 45, gave me a photo which I suspect is from his late 30's and is possibly actually older than 45... As I had suspected he did NOT look like his photo.  He's watching TV and notices me enter the room... asks if I'd like something to eat.  I nod and he goes in to the kitchen... asks if I'd like an apple or orange, I choose the orange and start packing up the toys and getting dressed.  He brings me a peeled orange and heads back in to the kitchen.. I hear the microwave go on.  I eat my orange, get dressed and pack everything up.  He comes back holding.. a frozen dinner... (really?!).  I eat some of it and he rubs my back and we chat.  He gives me this speech about how when I'm in 'recovery mode' I need solitude to process everything... my inner mind is screaming "no you idiot, I need someone to make sure I'm not going in to shock! I need human contact!"  I gather my things and he carries my bags down to my car, kissing me goodnight.  I get in to my car, still processing the evening.  Halfway home, I start giggling hysterically... I can smell garlic.

I arrive home and eventually make it in to the shower... I catch sight of myself in the mirror... he's bruised my left shoulder along the top bony part. 

I will not be returning to this man - not only because he broke my trust from the beginning by not using a condom... I'm pissed off that I need to go get tested again, when I was JUST TESTED at my GYN in October... I feel weird going back to him asking for ANOTHER round of tests, so I have to find a public health clinic to go to.  The garlic thing was... weird... I have no clue what was going on with that and I really didn't want to ask... I think I'm better off not knowing...  The lack of aftercare, when I know he was aware that I needed some (and any experienced Dom would have recognized that I needed help even if I had previously said I DIDN'T need aftercare)... all add up to someone that I do NOT want to play with again. In fact, if I were hearing this story from a less experienced submissive, I'd be seriously concerned.  I am saddened that my first play date getting back into the submissive role after such a long hiatus has turned out like this, and makes me seriously reconsider what I'm looking for.  At least with bad vanilla dates, you don't have to worry (too much) about physical or psychological damage.

Have I mentioned I'm an idiot?

I just offered to help drive BR and CG when they move....

yeah.. apparently I'm a sucker for punishment (well, we KNEW I'm a masochist, but apparently more of one than I'd originally thought)...

The Neverending Story Part VIII...

So I saw BR briefly last night... just a quick visit to drop something off - he came down to meet me in the parking lot...

wanted to apologize to me in person and tell me he knows he's got a lot to make up for...

and then says that CG is coming around and has started encouraging him to spend time with me...

W T F?

The Neverending Story, Part VIII...

After the fiasco with the non-get together on Monday, I decided that I was done chasing BR... I wasn't going to contact him unless he contacted me, and decided that he just wasn't worth it...

Lo and behold, he e-mails me today and then pops on MSN... we chat for a bit and I make it clear how displeased I am for him wasting so much of my time...  The short version of the story is that I told him that he needed to grow a pair and stand up for himself (especially to CG) ... and that from an outside perspective it seriously looks like he's in an abusive relationship.

He denied that she's abusive (big surprise) and admits that he needs to stick up for himself more...  claims that he wants me in his life.... then a short time later had to get going but asked if I'd be online later to talk more...

I think that this has fully resigned myself intellectually and emotionally that he is NOT the one... I do NOT need to be with someone with these sorts of issues... even if he resolves his own personal problems, there would still always be CG to deal with. I am POSITIVE there must be SOMEONE out there who wants a (possibly) LTR with a sweet girl who he can degrade, humiliate, hurt and fuck through the mattress (and who possibly in return wants to be teased and humiliated and forced to worship my feet)... it's just not BR - I need to click in more than just the bedroom. 

As I told him, if he wants me in his life, he can make the effort to have me in his life.  I'm done - no more invitations (other than the usual standing offers to all of my friends) and no more special effort to prove to CG that I'm not a threat.

Somehow I doubt that this ends the neverending story, but it has certainly resolved itself further in my mind.

I'm sure this won't create unrealistic expectations for tonight's date...

The Neverending Story Part VII...

So I text BR prior to my doctor's appointment... I text him after my doctor's appointment... I call and leave a message.. .. after about 15 minutes I give up and go home.

Lo and behold, about an hour later I get a phone call from him with some excuse I didn't quite catch about why he didn't reply right away and tells me that his phone is dying (perhaps it was off earlier? I'm not sure) ... I tell him that I'm already most of the way home and he says that he'll make it up to me. I comment that at this point he needs to make it up to me 3 times over... his reply "shit, you're right" ... he says his phone is dying so we disconnect...

an additional 30 min later I get the following text message:

"I feel like shit. I'm so sorry. Phone's going off. I just wanted to let you know that I feel bad and I'm sorry"

now... I've got a fairly low tolerance for bullshit and I have to say that at this point I've pretty much written BR off as ever being a partner of any sort. He may be great in bed, but he's just too unreliable otherwise...

Perhaps I'll make him clean my car to "make it up to me" ...

The Neverending Story, Part VI

Didn't i just say I was going to hold off with BR until he contacted me first?

I just got an e-mail, comments on my facebook and him logging in to MSN to chat... that's sort of spooky...

He wants to reschedule dinner... he and CG may stop by to say hello before thanksgiving dinner... and will probably come to dinner the Sunday afterwards....

They're going to be downtown tonight (though apparently apart) and we may hang out after work...

confusion reigns....

In CG news, I have conflicting information which is tipping the scales closer to the "unhealthy/abusive psycho CG" scale... I got the impression that she had come to my city for school, but some people I know in "the scene" think they remember her from yeeeaaaaaars ago... sigh... I guess if we hang out tonight I'll try to get the full story of the two of them... maybe I just got my info wrong or misunderstood... and if she did lie to him about how long she's been in town and her involvement in the scene... well I'll be sure to let him know.

Farmer's Market @#(%

Wake up bright and early (ok, 8am) and I've got a text message waiting... BR and CG were out late and they want to sleep in, they're cancelling dim sum... well ^%$#@*$

Ok then, I post a quick ad to CL with a description of what I'm wearing and inviting guys to come find me at the Farmer's Market...

Off I go, have a great time (as usual) and found food at WAY too good of a deal (as usual)... no one found me, but when I got home my e-mail box was full of dick pics... big surprise.

Text with BR some more... filled him in on my latest disasters and lamented that so far no one could compare to him, then invited him and CG to Sunday dinner... he points out that not being with him was my choice, so I point out that I promised I'd call him on his shit and that the moment he breaks up with CG or tell her, I'm all over him like white on rice. He tells me that he jerked off 3 times Saturday night while thinking of me, while CG was taking a bath... I just don't get it...

He texts back later that he and CG aren't going to come to dinner... just spend the evening in together...

See... this is my problem with BR... he's so fucking fantastic in bed and our kinks match up so perfectly and even after only 3 "dates" by the 3rd it was as if we'd been together forever in terms of anticipating wants/desires...

Now i know that I'm romanticising this a bit, considering the string of disasters I've just had... but he really honestly was the best I've had recently.

But how do I know how much about CG is the truth, now that I know that he'd be willing to lie to her about me? How much of what he's told me is a lie? How much can I trust him? Was there really a boyfriend that she was visiting? Why do they keep cancelling? Is he trying to prevent me from meeting her? Or on the flip side, is he stuck in an abusive situation? Does he need my help? I'd feel like such as ass to think the worst of him when he needs my help.

That said, even if he IS in an abusive relationship, that doesn't really justify cheating... If/when he does dump/tell her, I don't care if he "cheats" or sleeps around because we wouldn't have anything more than a casual relationship... but it's still something he needs to work through and I need to be strong and not give in to the temptation for just one "farewell" kiss/fuck/whatever...

Gonna wash that man right outta my hair...

In an attempt to get BR out of my head (he can't be the "perfect" match... I'm sure there are other guys out there) I've started checking out CL again... even posted my own ad...

I've of course got more replies than I can handle, though I've found a couple of promising guys, including ID (Irish Dom), who's a bit of a commute but might be worth it, and a couple of guys closer to home.

I've got a date with ID for Tuesday as long as my migraine holds off...

The Neverending Story, Part V

BR came for dinner... got along pretty well with all of my friends, however he told me he's decided he wants to play anyways...

While driving home we discussed this and things were going great until I heard "but I'm not going to tell CG quite yet" ...

ick...

I wasn't sure how to respond, especially after the breathtaking (literally) kiss goodnight that left me worried I'd stain my car seat. After some texting about logistics on the way home, and some severe moral questioning...

I told him I couldn't... I just wouldn't be some one's dirty secret or "the other woman"

who knew... I've got morals!

The Neverending Story, Part IV

Busy day with friends... BR came over this evening and we got high and watched the South Park Movie... good times except for CG (Crazy Girlfriend) texting him every 5 minutes. Didn't have any sexual contact and the UST was thick enough you could cut it with a knife. Drove him home and we both lamented the insanity of CG. Invited him to Sunday dinner because I'm a masochist.

The Neverending Story, Part III

Learned some more about the girl... I'm a little concerned for BR, this relationship does NOT sound healthy, but what do I know... I've only just met him, and I haven't met her... But still... she pressured him in to giving up his career goal? Doesn't want him talking to me about her? Has gone crazy jealous over finding out he's met a female friend?

He decided that he wasn't going to sleep with me again because apparently their poly relationship is a one-way street, despite previous negotiations. That uh... didn't go so well... was up until 4am and spent the night. I can't say I regret it 'cause it was fucking fantastic, but it can't continue...

The Neverending Story, Part II

Saw BR again tonight... I picked him up and took him back to my place. Made him strip and kneel all pretty for me in my kitchen while I cooked us dinner, then had some more fun afterwards... His girl returns on Monday, and we've made plans for most of the weekend... yummai!

Dropped him off and came home just as Schmoopy was returning from out of town.

The Neverending Story, Part I

I met a guy... believe it or not off of Craigslist! Answered an ad for a young gentleman seeking to rim a woman while she ignores him. I can TOTALLY do that ;)

Picked him up, went back to his place, and.... WOW... Turns out he's a switch, and *very* good in either role... 3 orgasms for him, an uncountable number for me and I've made plans to see him again.

He shall be dubbed "BR" or "Battering Ram" (I'm sure you can figure out why). He's in a poly relationship and his girl is away visiting her other partner right now... If I'm lucky my search will have ended right when it's started ;)
