Yeah, pretty much, it's just a substitute for actual play, since I've never located a play partner. In my case, my "submissiveness" is more about being challenged without my direct control than it is about setting myself up as subservient to another. I'm sure the thrill would pale in comparison to the most tame play with a Domme, but I sometimes wonder if in a way, there is more intensity in self-bondage. Once I've committed myself, and completed the bondage, there is no safeword, no negotiation, no mercy, no second thoughts. I can wait it out, or escape. But more on-topic, it's the only way I can simulate the will of another person. If I play with pain by myself, I will always yeild at some point, and completely at my whim. While the exploration of the sensations can be entertaining and instructive, the fully voluntary nature of auto-masochism undermines the effect I seek. Also, by its nature, there is a strictly enforced delay of gratification...
