ORIGINAL: SusanofO I haven't read anything about this at all, anywhere. And, the oldest female I've seen post on this site is 63, the oldest male, 70 something. I know I've heard that people "wind down" as far as ther sexual and, possibly (hope not too much), bdsm related desires are concerned - eventually. Things change as one ages, so little things like kneeling at one's feet changes to sitting next to one another with head in lap. Play changes also as well as frequency of play; from big sessions to little sessions, letting the bruises heal being the determining factor. On the other hand, things get better as there are less conflicts and more intuitive things that happen. Hopefully, by the time they are really old, they are happily in a caring D/s or M/s relationship, or at least have enough wherewithal to afford health and domestic care (I've heard Medicare won't cover hiring a Pro Domme or Pro Dom, or Pro submissive or slave, he). Well, actually, yes they will, as they are not Pro xxx, but billed as therapists.(just be careful, lol) I am sorry if this is a depressing question, but my father is a little bit sick right now (he will get better, probably, but is having heart palpitations, and doctors are still figuring out what this might mean) - and I started thinking about what happens to old people. Maybe this isn't the place to ask but - think about it: Question: If you really cared about your Master (Mistress) or slave or submissive, you would take care of them if they were sick, right? Or at least help? You wouldn't toss them out the door because they were "too old"? Well, maybe some would. Any comments (and accompanying justifications for whatever) welcome. Sorry to be a wet blanket (if I am) but I do think this is rarely discussed, or maybe even contemplated (why would it be- nobody here is that old, I guess). Doesn't mean people can't think about it. I would not hesitate to take care of that, which I had a relationship with. Question: So - What's your plan, as far as D/s or M/s in your life goes, goes when you really start to age? Gonna have someone there who gives a darn about your welfare, even if you're a wrinkled up thing that can hardly walk anymore, or what? Or not? Gonna toss someone out the door on their butt because they've suddenly become "too old" and-or too much work to care for? Hey, a walking cane reaches. Really, it is a commitment that I take seriously, when I say for the long term. Relationships evolve over time, just as you cannot do things just like you did when you were 18; but you have learned to adapt. It is the same here as love and devotion increase and service alters slightly with age. Sorry if nobody's ever seen me like this. Perhaps the quality of my questions on this site is going downhill, but I would appreciate any comments.This isn't a joke (but am sure some will toy w/the question anyway, which is fine and unavoidable I suppose). Thanks. Death sobers the best of us. As heather has said some of the people go out on a good note, some die alone/lonely. I have had to watch the ravages of cancer take hold of a few people and have witnessed their death, including my mother. A vibrant person who went from healthy to an 89 lb. skelton at her death. So, yes, you have been pushed to do things right. Now you just need to find the right person to grow old together with, floggers and all. - Susan
