you're right, but it still feels so gimmicky that this author built up them having an actual bdsm relationship, with all the aspects of it like aftercare and contracts and such, and then it turns out the "submissive" actually isn't into bdsm at all (and even is lowkey disrespectful about it) except for choking. like. why couldn't we have stuck with that from the beginning rather than building up all this bullshit. i just feel kinda disappointed and led on lmao

yeye i agree! im just saying, its still so bullshit to build up all this bdsm contract and aftercare shit just to say errr actually he doesn't like the pain, he just likes this guy. sure he can still like getting choked and being humiliated---god forbid we actually see that more than like once or twice, though---but then WHAT was the point of building up the bdsm shit if he doesn't give a shit about anything except that, and even seems to look down upon bdsm??
again i agree with you, but i still think the rhetoric here is so bs lol
oh. so he actually wasn't into choking. so it was just an unhealthy coping mechanism for his feelings for the guy. so this whole bdsm relationship bullshit was for nothing and was just a gimmick. ok
