Introductions discussion

Good evening all. I have been part of this community for quite a while, but was perhaps too timid or bashful to really show my face.:character0114: Anyway, I want to thank Mistress Watchful and the other wonderful members who helped persuade me that chastity is such an essential piece of who I am… A couple of weeks ago, after enduring a long stretch of joblessness and stress, luck finally knocked on my door. I turned to my wife and asked, “If I land this new role, can I get myself a CB6k?” Her answer was simple: “Sure!” That moment has passed, and now here I am, happily secured in my cage. Our reasons were distinct, hers compared to mine. For me, the idea of staying chaste, kept from cumming while she holds the power over my sexuality, thrilled me beyond measure. I must confess that this specific fantasy…ahem…served a very physical need as well.:) For my wife (we have been wed for nearly five years now), she started out mainly accommodating my preferences. However, over the last fortnight, after reading up quite a bit and noticing how much more attentive I became to her needs (kissing, massages, etc., even though I already handle 99% of the cooking and well over half the chores). Last weekend, we sat down for an honest talk about the chastity belt. Since she isn’t naturally dominant—we see ourselves as equals—we needed a plan to help her want to hold the key to my cage. My proposal was this: since physical affection between us had been fading over the last few years, I promised to make every effort to become tender with her again, perhaps even more than during our dating days. I would go above and beyond what is expected by giving massages, rubbing her feet (provided she’s relaxed enough—she can’t stand it when people touch them otherwise), and generally making life at home with me…more fulfilling for her. In return, I asked that she keep my desire alive and truly take control of the key, and thus our sex life. Two weeks ago, when the cage first arrived and I started trying to put it on, my wife mentioned that she noticed an immediate shift in how I treated her. She said I looked like someone who was once again deeply in love with her. And it’s true.:) With that said, when we formalized our arrangement a week ago, she expressed no doubt that I would keep my promise… That being the case, after an accidental ruined orgasm on Wednesday which pushed back my “possible release” day from Saturday to Sunday (today), she let me have my first discharge in over seven days. She later told me she felt significant pleasure edging me three or four times before letting me erupt…which might be (probably!) the most intense climax I’ve ever had… Actually, for years now, I’ve been drawn to bondage and several other kinks, including self-bondage and WS. She has supported my interests from day one and has even started enjoying being bound herself. Meanwhile, since I am constantly horny in my cage, she will send me off to the bedroom and _____________ (she fills in that blank with various activities drawn from a list of things we compiled together that excite either her or me). It’s strange. For the first time in…well…forever, I feel completely sexually satisfied (even though my member is locked inside an acrylic cage). Earlier tonight, while I was preparing dinner, she whispered to me that she feels wholly content as well. Ok, I suppose that covers everything for now. Once more, kudos to everyone here; I’m glad to join your extended family.:) Andy
