Welcome to the first EdenKink meeting run by yours truly and starring the ever impressive lunaKM.

This woman never ceases to amaze me. While running a mini internet empire, she still manages to find time to take care of her partner and her home in full domestic diva style, right down to baking her own bread. From scratch, ladies. No bread makers here.

You can find this incredible woman helping out newbie submissives on Submissive Guide or talking about her relationship and life on A Slut Wife in Training. She's a board member for Central Iowa Power Exchange. She's written for EdenCafe and she was a guest speaker for EdenBloggers.

And now she's here to talk to you about her relationship dynamic.

Allow me to introduce to you my friend luna!

(Feel free to ask questions!)

When did you realize that you wanted to be a submissive? What exactly clued you into that particular desire?

Hello everyone, I’m lunaKM. Rayne asked me to be here tonight to share with you how I grew into submission and about the way my dynamic works. I’ll also be taking any questions you have about myself, KnyghtMare or the online projects that we manage (which you’ll hear about soon). Please feel free to ask me questions at any time during tonight’s meeting.

Let me open up with introducing myself. I’m 34 and live in the Midwest. I was married once before to a vanilla partner that was only a little bit kinky in the bedroom. Ultimately one of the many reasons I decided to seek a divorce was that incompatibility that became obvious when I found I needed more than he was willing to give.

Looking at it now I know that my story is not that unusual. I read and hear about it all the time. I think what is fantastically unusual are the marriages that succeed in adding D/s after a long vanilla relationship. I applaud them. It’s not easy to change and to bring someone with you on this glorious ride is an added challenge.

What got you interested in the liefstyle you lead to begin with?

I just want to say that I'm DYING for some real kink play. It's been FOREVER. And now I have all of this really nice stuff that my partner isn't really into. We've opened the door for polyamory, so I may just get my wish, but I'm really tired of waiting.

Have you tried fetlife? It has a lot of people looking for that exact kind of thing. Just a thought

Do you consider yourself exclusively a submissive, or do you have a top/switch side to you as well?

Being submissive came after I realized that I was masochist. And since they are not one in the same, it arrived slowly and with a lot of struggle, internal and in the relationship.

I'm just not sure I like the randomness of that site. There's a bunch of people in my area, but I want it to be someone I can have an outside life with as well. All the people I've found on there are too old/creepy/etc. for me. Part of good BDSM for me is when it's with someone I can truly trust and love.

I'm a submissive by choice but I also am a Service Top for my Master. He likes a bit of play but has to be in control so he controls what I do to him and I serve him that way. It's very occasional but it's lots of fun to "give him what he gives me".

Aww, that's terrible! Luckily, I have someone I can play with whenever I want. HAHA!

+1 on this! Fetlife is a wonderful resource for finding your local kink scene and making friends.

So, what happened after the divorce?

I had casual play partners when I first started exploring BDSM and I became very active in the local BDSM scene early on. The way I was welcomed has probably helped shape my opinion on the community as a whole. I learned that I enjoyed a lot of masochistic activities which I have to admit I wasn’t surprised about. What did surprise me was the contentment and happiness I had at preparing a meal for a Dominant or doing other mundane things for them after a night of intense play. It was to be the start of my service.

How many of you are in (or curious about) a casual or bedroom only sort of BDSM relationship?

I so get the struggle there. I was wondering if you consider yourself mentally or "internally" enslaved or if you even believe that it's possible?

I think I have a good idea, but what exactly is the difference between a masochist and submissive?
