ORIGINAL: ranja That is most likely it... she does not give and he only gives to get i have to say out of the two i think she is more at fault... he might be going about it wrong, but at least he is trying while she is just doing nothing... So Angeldmort... if you see someone twisting themselves about and jumping through hoops to get your attention and you think they are only doing that for their own bit of fun and you do not like that because you want them only if they behave differently... and you are supposed to be the Dominant partner, don't you think it is a bit helpful if you would be so kind as to tell them what they are doing wrong? and how they should behave instead? so that you will get properly turned on? or are you saying that indeed subs should be mindreaders? I personally think it is a totally unhealthy attitude to withold sex from a partner because you think they are doing something wrong and then not telling them what it is they do wrong... it smacks of insecurity and lack of imagination and i think it is a stupid stupid power game which will end badly eventually. I know it does not help to lay blame, Both of them opening up is probably the only thing that will help ETA the flip floppy attitude comes from desperation and frustration, if you try and try and try and seem to bang your head against a brick wall and you get no help or hint or direction as to how you might change things to get a better result you end up angry and resentful and very insecure and flip floppy... at least flip floppy is still sort of movable and bendy, while a block of concrete is just an unmovable boring grey mass... the only thing for that is to go at it with hammer and chissel and forcefully break it down... is that how to open her? We can only speculate based on what we know from what he tells us. But I believe there's a lot of reason to be positive in a relationship like this - that the woman CAN enjoy forms of actual dominance -- if the two people can start from scratch: 1. Total honesty and transparency and communication 2. Husband agrees and diligently takes all passive aggressive behaviors off the table, all "helping" her in the forms of lists, toy purchases, "watch this porno with me" and other things that may put pressure on her to perform a certain way 3. NO CHEATING - not even 'cyber submission' to another woman or jerking off to femdom porn 4. Husband lets her go at her pace, whether it's 1 "domination session" a month or whatever she feels up to. In a relationship like the one in the OP, the wife has a very clear idea of what kind of kinks he has, she's very aware of S&M and dominance and is probably exhausted even thinking of having to do x, y and z to make him happy - it's just another set of chores, and it's not exciting. The easy way out is to deny sex or play the princess and sit back and enjoy and maybe be standoffish. Women pushed into a corner who "fake" that they like/tolerate S&M, if they have a working knowledge of it, choose the path of least resistance and, least possibility of failure and least amount of work: Smile, and deny, and say/do nothing. As appropriate, encourage (in a cool way) fawning types of behavior, and shut off nurturing. He wanted dominance, he got it - the only way she knows how to do it, and the only way she finds she's able to swallow, when she compares herself to what she sees in porn, hears about his fantasies or thinks he wants. That's one way I see it. Submissive men need to know that nearly ALL women, and I would say many/most femdoms, will ultimately enjoy "their man's response, emotional presence and way he reacts to" dominant acts; they do NOT enjoy the acts for the acts themselves. The acts are merely a list of things "to do" - with varying levels of discomfort/unease/fear of failure/or even "eww, disgusting" reactions. Meanwhile the men see the fetishes as a list of acts that are hot, often with the woman as an interchangeable figure of fantasy - but, they want it on their terms, free and hopefully a lot. In order to ever "convert" the woman into someone who enjoys dominance, he has to allow her to dictate the pace, the acts and know that she's going to build her perception of it based on how he reacts to it. Instant groveling worm? Probably going to turn her off. Mr. Stoic, No Emotion Guy? Same. How about the hinter/pusher? She's going to feel cornered and pressured. So what's the best reaction? Bring out the side of you that she finds MOST attractive through your surrender. Most women enjoy feeling sexy and powerful to a man they physically find attractive; most women enjoy feeling slightly intimidating and mysterious (even if it's a departure for them), most women enjoy knowing/seeing that a man can be humbled for her. But he has to be believable, honorable and sexy about it. If she's not having fun, she won't ever want to go back to it; the tougher nut to crack is the woman who is confident in her sexual position, knows what S&M is, and has learned to fake it so she can put the least amount of effort into it to shut him up. Because she has no reason to ever really give it a shot and find out how much fun it really can be. Akasha
