The Great Compartmentaliser

I am, generally speaking, quite open about all aspects of my life; be it my interests and hobbies, my mental health, my sex life, or my general views on life, the universe, and everything. Having said that I don't necessarily share every aspect of me with absolutely everybody. This is less apparent in everyday ("real")...

TMI Tuesday: April 9, 2019

TMI Tuesday Did you leave your last love for some one else or no one else? My last love left me for someone else, I didn't leave them. Do you enjoy being alone? Yes or No I don't mind it on the whole, so I guess my answer would be "Yes". I don't enjoy being...

All By Myself

I have always been something of a loner. As a child I was the eldest but with a six year gap between me and my nearest sibling. Add to that the fact that I lived in a remote part of Scotland and that my nearest neighbours were several miles away, so the only time I...

Betrayal

It is, perhaps, one of the most difficult forms of loss to come to terms with; the loss that comes with the betrayal of trust from someone close to you. Friendships and relationships, like all things, have their time and come to an end for many reasons. With hindsight, these endings, while painful and upsetting...

Guidance And Support

I have mentioned on a number of occasions how much the "One right way..." concept annoys me. The attitude that there is a one size fits all approach to D/s relationships and the dynamics within them displays a level of ignorance and, indeed, arrogance that needs to be challenged whenever and wherever it is encountered....

Just A Man

I was brought up with some very conservative and, some might say, old fashioned views and attitudes about how men behaved. Firstly, when it came to women, we looked after them, we held doors open for them, we let the precede us wherever we went and, under no circumstances, did we ever raise a hand...

TMI Tuesday: March 26, 2019 – Do Your Thang!

Do Your Thang! When you have experienced sexual difficulty, how did you overcome it? Bizarrely, I wrote about this for Food For Thought Friday just the other day. In my context, sexual difficulties are simply part of the broader range of difficulties I experience as a result of suffering from depression. They happen, I deal...

Mind And Body

As a very general rule, unless I'm sick or exhausted, in which case the chances of me being up for sex are slim to non-existent, when my mind is in the mood, my body is too. Dropping out of the zone, so to speak, is not really something that has been an issue for me;...

Still Here

I have, as some of you have noticed and commented on, been rather quiet in recent weeks. While I've been relying on my #FebPhotoFest and #SinfulSunday photos to keep my blog ticking over recently, it has been over three weeks since I last posted something here. Truth be told, I really don't have anything much...
