I think it is really good when we can understand the struggle that someone might have in meeting and having no prior experience. Whether we would actually forgive and move on and trust again, it is a nice thought that we would give someone a chance to be human and not perfect. But... I would personally be very shaky on trust here, because I would be afraid that once I invested a bit of myself into someone who flaked... that he would flake again. Because a second chance was asked for and given, I believe you have a very serious situation on your hands now. You must be secure when you give your word, yet you cannot be afraid to tell her when you feel unsure or have doubts or fears. Communication is going to be key here and if you are afraid you will mess up, you most likely will. Be sure. How can you be sure? Don't think of kink and if you can handle pain and all that, most I know that have been on shaky ground will shake until they crumble. You have to think about being a man of your word, whether you can handle things or not, at this point doesn't really matter. If you agree to something, do it. Don't agree to playing or anything you are unsure of and I am not sure I would expect you to give your word on anything but on a personal level as one person to another, and being able to trust that you were a friend who would meet and be honest, forthright and able to be vulnerable because you are a man of honor and of your word. Added... and stop projecting into it... when you are afraid you will project in what could happen and get into fear and you ruin it for yourself and run.
