Introductions discussion

Hello all, I’ve spent a few weeks browsing around this community and have finally decided to step forward, introduce myself, and share what led me here. I’m a 23-year-old student from Germany. I realized about a year ago that I enjoy being submissive. Prior to that, I dated several girlfriends and had some casual encounters, but standard vanilla sex didn’t quite meet my needs. My main issue was frequent masturbation; combined with the fact that partnered sexual contact only happened roughly six or seven times a year, it felt unexciting. I tried abstaining from masturbation, which lasted for just a few days at first. Then I found an image of a chastity cage and bought one right away. It’s an affordable model similar to the cb6000s, and I was eager to test it out. After a short while, I noticed that wearing it solo wasn’t very engaging. Since I didn’t have a girlfriend then, I started searching for a mistress. After trying several who weren’t too serious about my chastity, I found the one I’m with now. She is also German and enjoys controlling me through Webcam sessions and phone calls. She’s quite strict and currently mentors me daily to help me become a better slave. She has full control over my genitals, and I accept that as long as she remains my mistress, I likely won’t have sexual contact with another woman again. I really love it. I joined this site to deepen my understanding of the chastity lifestyle, learn which devices work well, and see how others practice their routines. Looking forward to learning from everyone.
