I always had a slight interest in bdsm, but I never thought it was something that I'd ever really need in a relationship. I also grew up in a conservative christian home and felt uncomfortable about these things
Then I met my current boyfriend. Every time I said something that was slightly out there, he'd either think it was hot or accept it, and I started to feel more comfortable and accept this side of myself. He was never into it before and I noticed some slight discomfort about some things at first, but he's quickly gotten into it now.
That leads me to my question. He is comfortable with himself and isn't shy about it. I'm the one that is more into it and yet many times I still feel uncomfortable and inhibited.
Does this eventually go away as you learn to be more confident about it? Has anyone else ever gone through this?
