Well, this wasn't that long ago for me, really. My best friend died a little less than a year ago and since then my attitude to everything has changed to "f__k it, why not?"
I'm still relativly "new" and def. Very naïve when it comes to anything regarding fetishes and/or sex in general. Before last year this was all just something that I read about in my textbooks for psych class.
If someone had confided in me that they were into this lifestyle, after convincing myself they had no intent to harm me (I'm very hypervigilient. I mean no offense to anyone), I would likely just have a TON of questions. probably an annoying amount of them actually. I guess I never outgrew that incessent "but why?" phase
