To distill what FNF is saying into something that may be more generally understandable -- the mechanics of what you're doing, what order you're whipping, etc, are not anywhere near as important as your ATTITUDE. Don't think of "being a dom" as something you put on your hardhat for when you enter the bedroom. Sure, if you're doing specific formal "scenes", there may be a moment you can point to and say "this is when the scene started", but part of the thrill of d/s is that it is (or can be) an undercurrent in every aspect of the relationship. it isn't about nipple clamps or floggers, they're just accessories. Next time you can tell she's upset at you for watching football on TV (totally random and stereotypical example, I personally hate sports on TV), grab her and bend her over your lap and twist her arm behind her so she can't get up. Pull down her pants or pull up her skirt and spank her or play with her or don't do anything but hold her. Just keep her there while you watch the game and tell her "see, now we're both having fun". You're not doing something to make her happy (although you're sarcastically pretending to, and in the process humiliating her even more!). You're doing what you want to do anyway, and showing her that if she disapproves you're just going to take her over your knee and teach her to be careful what she asks for. As far as the practical "how-to" stuff, definitely get the books. In general, building something up slowly with any of your toys will be more pleasurable, and doing something all-out right from the beginning will be quite painful. Which is how, for example, spanking can be both a form of play and a genuine punishment -- if I just grab a girl and start whacking her ass full-strength with a paint stirrer, she'll be crying within a few strokes and begging to be forgiven. But if I take ten minutes to build up to that same intensity, she'll be dripping wet promising the moon and the stars if I'll just please, please use her body however I want (and it is in that moment that you'll know deep in your heart if you are a dom -- does her begging to please you turn you on more than anything in your life or imagination ever has?)
