If he cares about your overall well-being - which includes your relationships and, if applicable, career - then he should not be doing things that compromises it.... Particularly if you bring it up. It's not unreasonable to ask him to keep marks to places that are easily hidden. I'm not going to bash people who want to do S&M activities in obvious places like the face, but there are things to consider, particularly if you're in the kink closet. Frankly, it concerns me that you're "terrified to say or do anything to make him angry," particularly in this context. Someone who gets mad at their submissive/slave because that submissive/slave raises a valid issue is someone who needs to work on relationship skills, not someone to be trusted in a dominant role. Even in the kink world, I take it as a giant red flag when a partner wants to cut you off from or compromise your relationships with people who care about you. Along with the fact that you're "afraid when he goes that far with [your] punishment," this sounds to me like a case of textbook abuse disguised as BDSM. I understand I don't have much to go on here, so my suggestion comes down to this: 1. Bring it up gently. Make it a point to bring it up outside of play/punishment, and if you need to/can, call a bit of a time out on your dynamic. Explain to him the reasons you don't want that punishment in that places (ie, the ramifications it has on your life). IMO, if he's reasonable, he'll understand and will alter his behavior. 1a. I'd also bring up the fear aspect of the relationship. If you're actually "afraid" and "terrified" for your safety and you can't trust that he has your well-being in mind even while punishing you, that's a problem. 2. If he refuses to compromise, and especially if he gets mad at you for bringing these things up.... Honestly, leave him (and look into local domestic violence help if necessary). If it's this bad at 3 months, it's only going to get worse.
