My girlfriend and I starting dating after we were friends and after discovering that we both like BDSM. We have for two years now talked about what we both want, expect, and goals that we wish to accomplish. We talk about our D/s lifestyle on a daily basis so that there are no surprises in the middle of our play. Communicate, communicate, communicate. It's the key.
I drive a Ford Focus, traded my GMC pickup in on to increase gas mileage.
