Transcript
- 0:08It's the King Consultant podcast where we're turning up the heat
- 0:11on all things kink and dating, relationships and pop culture.
- 0:14So close the door, plug in your headphones, and let's get down
- 0:17to it. Hello and welcome to this week's
- 0:25episode of The King Consultant. I am excited to have this week's
- 0:29guest on. We have Zachary Moore, my former
- 0:32personal trainer from when I lived in New York City.
- 0:35The reason I asked you on is because you piqued my interest.
- 0:38When I was working out with you years ago, you could not totally
- 0:43dove into dating. You were single.
- 0:46For a little bit of context. So I recently got separated.
- 0:49Oh, congratulations. Thank you and very amicable.
- 0:52My ex were super cool. We're cool, you know, no drama,
- 0:54no nothing. We have our sons, we still
- 0:56parent together all the time. But for me, as I've been getting
- 0:59back out into the dating world, it was, you know, one I haven't
- 1:02dated. And like I sound insane for
- 1:04saying this, but for almost 15 years.
- 1:05That is a long time. Did Tinder even exist when you
- 1:10were single last? Nothing existed so it goes to
- 1:12show my knowledge. So I literally never used the
- 1:14app for anything. And like when my my now ex and I
- 1:18got together like I was 25 she was 23.
- 1:20We had a good time. There was a lot of good stuff
- 1:23that was there both, you know, mentally, physically and
- 1:25emotionally. And let's just put, I'm excited
- 1:27to get back out into the into the world and, and see what's
- 1:29up. And you recommended an app that
- 1:33you thought might be a good app for me field as I got into the
- 1:37app now you'd recommended it for a little bit of a different
- 1:39reason. And you were right.
- 1:40And I listened and that's why I did it for my situation.
- 1:43Again, for context, I am very busy throughout the week.
- 1:46I leave my ex's place at around 8:30 once my son is asleep.
- 1:51So my son is my priority. I'm not changing any of that
- 1:54stuff. So I don't have a ton of time to
- 1:55date during the week. And what I'm looking for is
- 1:57something that's, you know, a little more, I think casual
- 2:00would be the right term, right? I'm not looking to date anybody
- 2:02seriously. It's not going to be the thing
- 2:04where I'm like trying to get married again.
- 2:06And what you had mentioned was you're like, you know, there's
- 2:08this app field and it started as a primarily as a kink app, but
- 2:12you can also find individuals who are a little more casual in
- 2:15nature. And as I began to explore a more
- 2:17for the casual aspect of it, started exploring more the kink
- 2:20aspect of it too. And I have a friend of mine and
- 2:23he's gay and he had something, he had said something really
- 2:25interesting because he had been kind of through a similar
- 2:27situation. And he said when I got out of my
- 2:30long term relationship, I realized that I did have a cake.
- 2:33And as I wanted to explore other people's cakes and then figure
- 2:37out what mine happened to be if it was in there.
- 2:40And I remember him saying that. And I was like, you know, I
- 2:42think there's kind of a dual aspect to this exploration that
- 2:45might be going on, which is 1 just finding something that's a
- 2:48little bit more, you know, casual in all of the right
- 2:51respectful ways. This isn't supposed to be mean
- 2:54or, or dirty in a bad way. You know, I, I remember
- 2:57listening to your stories and I listen to your podcast and I
- 2:59think I'm, I'm deeply intrigued by the world of kink, if I'm
- 3:02being honest. And I'm very eager to explore it
- 3:05and see what I like and don't like.
- 3:06And I have some ideas. But as I was going through the
- 3:08app, I was like, oh, I got to talk to my girl Amanda.
- 3:10There's a lot of stuff here I don't know and I need some
- 3:13guidance so. Did you know you were kinky?
- 3:16Yeah, there's, I've always known that there's a little bit of
- 3:19something in there, right? What form does that something
- 3:22take and how far will I explore it?
- 3:25And I'd say I've barely scratched the surface on it,
- 3:28right? But I think I have some ideas in
- 3:30terms of what that might look like.
- 3:32When you text me about this, I felt like, how had we never
- 3:36talked about this before? I don't think I never asked, are
- 3:38you kinky? But I also think I had a
- 3:41suspicion that you were for two reasons.
- 3:43Number one, you were very concerned with the state of my
- 3:45nails and how they'd look when I show up.
- 3:47And that's a very particular thing.
- 3:49And I was like, it's a certain type of energy, right?
- 3:51And I was like, it's not weird, it's just in particular.
- 3:54And I was like, OK, he has strong opinions.
- 3:56That doesn't mean you're kinky. But paired with piece of
- 3:59evidence #2 I don't remember if you wanted me to work out in
- 4:03between or, or stretch or definitely use a foam roller,
- 4:06which I was never doing. And I'd show up and you'd ask
- 4:09like, did you stretch? And I'd be like, I didn't have
- 4:11time. And you threatened to punish me
- 4:13and I stopped you mid sentence. It's like, I enjoy that in my
- 4:17personal life. We're not bringing that here.
- 4:19The way you handled that, You're like, OK.
- 4:22And just no more questions. You're like, all right, we won't
- 4:25do it. I was like, I think this
- 4:26person's dominant and we talked about so much.
- 4:29I'm shocked we never did this so.
- 4:31I think part of the reason why we didn't talk about it was
- 4:34like, wasn't having any sex at the time.
- 4:36All we were talking about was like, Oh yeah, I got to figure
- 4:37out how I do certain aspects of my business so I can make more
- 4:40money, so I can get my own place.
- 4:41How do I navigate this situation in the best possible way so I
- 4:44can remain a good parent and then get to a point where maybe
- 4:47I get laid before I die of old age again?
- 4:50That would be fantastic. We talked a lot about you
- 4:52getting laid eventually. But again, like I was really
- 4:54just focused on like I am genuinely cool with my ex.
- 4:58We are cool. But when you are in a
- 5:00relationship that needed to be over a long time, time ago when
- 5:04I at least when I got out, I just needed some time to chill.
- 5:07I also just needed some time to get a couple of things together
- 5:11that I had going on. There was a kind of a process
- 5:14got on the apps and I needed to feel that out, get a better
- 5:16sense of how all that stuff worked.
- 5:18Would you identify as dominant? Yeah.
- 5:20OK. Did you know that going into
- 5:22dating? Yeah.
- 5:24And I think I can tell you a really funny story.
- 5:28So my ex and I, and if anybody ever sees this, who knows us
- 5:31this, this might get us in trouble.
- 5:33But so we're messing around a little bit and we were trying a
- 5:35couple different things. I remember when we kind of
- 5:37flipped it a little bit and I was a little more on the sub
- 5:40side. And the first, the first I was
- 5:43like, hey, just like fucking tie me up.
- 5:45Let's see how this goes. And like, she's tying me up and
- 5:48we get like part of the way through and I almost had like a
- 5:51mild panic attack. I was like, get that fucking
- 5:53shit off me. Get it off.
- 5:54I don't like this. Like, what is wrong with you?
- 5:58And I was like, like, stop. We reverse roles and everything
- 6:02was great. I want to 1st.
- 6:03I appreciate you for trying, good for you.
- 6:06But also it's not easy. It's not simple to just be tied
- 6:09up. I think a lot of people think,
- 6:10oh the sub is being lazy, all they have to do is lie there.
- 6:13But like, there's a mental process you have to go through.
- 6:16It was very interesting For me, it was.
- 6:18I did not expect to react as viscerally as I did.
- 6:22I felt incredibly exposed. It was one of the vulnerable.
- 6:27Yeah. And, like, not in a good way.
- 6:29It felt very exposed. Like it was uncomfortable.
- 6:31I felt very powerless. And there you go.
- 6:34It was one of the least erotic moments I've had.
- 6:38You know what I mean? Where I was.
- 6:39Yeah. Like, this just wasn't for me.
- 6:41But that's why you tried. I'm glad you tried.
- 6:43Did you really think she was going to hit you?
- 6:45I asked that because paranormal sometimes sets in even with a
- 6:48trusted partner, of realizing Oh no.
- 6:51No, she was very trustworthy. And then she wouldn't have done
- 6:53anything like that. So I remember one time, this is
- 6:55another funny story. We were having sex.
- 6:57She was on top and like, we're really in it.
- 6:58And I was like, yeah, just fucking slap me.
- 7:00And my ex was strong and she slapped me.
- 7:04She slapped the sex right out of me.
- 7:06I was just, oh, and I was just like, what the fuck?
- 7:10And she was like, yeah, you'd like that.
- 7:11You want it again? And then she slapped the shit
- 7:13out of me again. And I was like, I literally got
- 7:18slapped back to reality. And I, I remember this to this
- 7:21day, I can tell you all like exactly where all the things in
- 7:25the room were and everything. And I was just like, all right,
- 7:27man, just keep you erected. Finish this, get out of here and
- 7:32never do that. Finish the mission and then be
- 7:36done. We're going to finish the stop,
- 7:37we're going to finish strong and then we're going to get our shit
- 7:39together. Damn, This is why negotiation is
- 7:43important beforehand, because we could have avoided this
- 7:46situation for you. That was in the moment and that
- 7:49was a request for me, and I stand by my request.
- 7:51It was awesome. Some people are into it,
- 7:54obviously not you all. Right, so then that is a
- 7:56question then, because I'm going on a date with this girl on
- 7:59Friday and on on her field AB she talked about one of the
- 8:02things was primal. If you didn't phrase it, I'm
- 8:05into primal. It was just in parentheses like
- 8:08things I meant to MFM you know what that is primal.
- 8:12Some other things I kind of understood what primal meant.
- 8:16I mean, I assume I understand and there's a difference between
- 8:18assuming and knowing so. I'm glad you approached it that
- 8:23way, but based on the stories you've shared so far, I think
- 8:26that you're going to be fine. It's a type of animalistic type
- 8:29of connection. There's the predator and prey.
- 8:31Do you know which one you are? OK.
- 8:35There you go. I know which one you are too.
- 8:37OK. It can range from anything from
- 8:39just like nibbling, growling, to being pretty rough in the
- 8:44bedroom. I mean, there are primal play
- 8:46parties where literally people are the prey and they go running
- 8:49and a group of predators run after them and get them.
- 8:54Like, that's the range it can be.
- 8:55Like we've started from nibbling on the ear in bed to actually
- 8:59going to a party where you're running for your life in the
- 9:01woods. With regards to that second
- 9:03situation, this is just kind of a question I have in general
- 9:06too, about about certain aspects of kink.
- 9:07And then we can get into this in terms of like, especially if
- 9:10it's more role play, bondage play, that kind of stuff.
- 9:13But again, with minimal experience in this, how does
- 9:16that go from the kink aspect to when it becomes more of the
- 9:21sexual aspect? That's a really good question
- 9:24and one that I jokingly say please never ask me because it's
- 9:28sort of a duality. There is the king side and for
- 9:31some people it can just be the kink and then other people it
- 9:34needs to include sex or be sex. So for some people they're
- 9:38together as one. For other people it's two
- 9:40separate things. For the ones who would say it's
- 9:43all one for them, it starts almost like foreplay.
- 9:46Kink is their foreplay, what they need and it can lead into
- 9:49sex. Where would you fall in that
- 9:51spectrum? Question.
- 9:53I mean, my aspects of King when they come out are more during
- 9:57sex and it's more just more of a dominant, more kind of more
- 10:02physically imposing aspect to it.
- 10:04Again, nothing that's mean or painful in a bad way, but it's
- 10:09from certain positions to certain intensities to just even
- 10:13the way I'm holding the person, certain things that line up in
- 10:17that aspect of it. Which can primal, but also
- 10:20there's the bondage side. You It sounded like you enjoy
- 10:23tying people up. I haven't done it enough to have
- 10:26enough data to know whether it's for me or not, but I have
- 10:30enjoyed it in my unlimited experience with.
- 10:32It Are you exclusively dating kinky right now or are you open
- 10:36to vanilla partners as well? I'm open to the spectrum.
- 10:38I've been much more drawn to trying to find somebody who has
- 10:42a similar situation as I do in terms of like their times and
- 10:45their logistics, with the caveat that understanding that that the
- 10:49sexual aspect of this is going to be important.
- 10:51That's the point for you right now.
- 10:52Another point, I am also somebody who's very big on like
- 10:55chemistry and vibe, right? Like if I don't have a good vibe
- 10:58with somebody, like I, I want to get along with the person.
- 11:01I care a lot about the mental and emotional attractions of
- 11:03that person as well. And if that's not there, I don't
- 11:05usually have like a strong sexual attraction to the
- 11:07individual, regardless of what they look like.
- 11:09OK, but it starts with looks because you're swiping on an
- 11:12app. Yes, 100%, which is also one of
- 11:15the reasons why I'm trying to, I mean, it's 2° outside.
- 11:19We're in New York right now. It's but it's also one of the
- 11:21reasons why I've been trying to force myself to go out because
- 11:23I, I don't know about you, but like when I'm out, like you
- 11:26really get a sense of somebody'd vibe.
- 11:27And for me, again, like I can meet somebody where let's just
- 11:30say aesthetically, like maybe you wouldn't be the most drawn
- 11:35to this person on an app, but you meet them in real life and
- 11:37you see the way they move, you see the way they talk.
- 11:39You kind of get a feel for their energy and you're like, this is
- 11:41dope, this is cool. I agree with that, but I
- 11:44actually try and flip that of just when I'm out and about
- 11:47anyway. I look at someone and think if I
- 11:48saw them in on an app I probably wouldn't swipe on them.
- 11:51Let me remember that look and like give someone a second
- 11:54chance on the app because that's how I'm meeting people.
- 11:57It's a great, but I'm also not going to go.
- 11:59I'm not 99% of the time. I'm not going to be the person
- 12:02hitting on someone in public. I don't know.
- 12:04Are you going up to people? I have no problem doing it like,
- 12:07or I would go up to somebody and, like, we'll have some
- 12:10butterflies in my stomach. Yeah, well, I need a second to,
- 12:13like, get myself grounded. Yeah.
- 12:14But I'm fine going up to somebody and just making
- 12:17conversation. My experience has been just be,
- 12:19you know, I know this is shocking, but like, listen and
- 12:21like have an actual human conversation with somebody and
- 12:24you're usually going to be okay. And I think my experience has
- 12:27been most women just want to make sure you're not a fucking
- 12:29creep. And then at least they'll listen
- 12:31to you for a minute. And then if you give it like,
- 12:34come on, man, like just make some conversation.
- 12:36For me, I'm specifically looking for someone kinky.
- 12:39Like I can't date vanilla and that is something I realized
- 12:42after 2 failed long term relationships.
- 12:44Yeah. So so for you then you need like
- 12:47would you say significant kink or and when you say vanilla,
- 12:50that doesn't necessarily mean bland, that just means non kinky
- 12:54to you, correct. Exactly, there is nothing wrong
- 12:57with vanilla for a lot of people.
- 12:58It's not bland. I've had very passionate vanilla
- 13:00sex, but if I'm not with someone who is going to tie me up or
- 13:04honestly say some pretty fucked up shit, I'm probably not going
- 13:09to long term be excited by them. It's an important point again
- 13:14for me because it's as I'm embarking upon this, you know, I
- 13:17have ideas of where I may fall, but I may not be kinky enough to
- 13:22meet someone else's. Yeah, well, that brings up a
- 13:26good point. Has anyone out the gate when
- 13:28you've messaged them, brought up their own kinks and been like,
- 13:30are you into this? Can you be into this?
- 13:32I messaged with this one girl, beautiful, beautiful chick who
- 13:36was very into rope play, which I knew was like a lot of like kind
- 13:39of heavy role play. And she was like, how's your
- 13:41experience with this? And I was up front, I was like,
- 13:44listen, I don't have a ton of experience with this, but I am a
- 13:46eager and fantastic student and I'm ready to learn if you're
- 13:49ready to teach. And she was very nice.
- 13:51She was like, it's a great attitude but I need a pro.
- 13:54With rope it takes years. I assume she means shibari,
- 13:58which is it's almost, it's an art form almost of tying people
- 14:01up and it takes years of experience.
- 14:03I took a Class A few months ago, a shibari class.
- 14:06My attempt was awful. Like it was my first attempt but
- 14:09it just showed like oh wow. I mean, this is like an actual
- 14:12compliment. Like some of those photos that
- 14:14she had, she looks like genuinely talented at the things
- 14:16that she was doing. Like she had worked on her
- 14:18craft. She knew it was up.
- 14:19Well, was she tied up or doing the tying?
- 14:22She was tied up. So getting into those positions
- 14:26would actually be really difficult.
- 14:27I'm actually talking to someone right now and I was like, I'm
- 14:30not very flexible. He's like, I think you should
- 14:32start stretching. So I'm stretching.
- 14:34OK, so you have the rope person. You have the primal person who
- 14:36put on their profile that they were primal.
- 14:38What else are you seeing out there that piques your interest?
- 14:41Yeah, so I connected with this one girl who was a little bit on
- 14:44the younger side. The big thing that she was
- 14:45looking for was daddy's little girl and I would love to.
- 14:48Dominant. Hold on.
- 14:50Yeah, we're looking for dominant Daddy little girl DDLG.
- 14:53DLG Yeah. I have.
- 14:55Before you say one more word, I have to ask you, how did she
- 14:59bring that up? It's in her profile.
- 15:01So she puts it out there. As soon as we matched, I looked
- 15:03it up, obviously. You say obviously, but let me
- 15:06tell you from the opposite side where I put emoji code in and
- 15:09different. Not everyone looks it up.
- 15:11Interesting. No, I immediately looked it up.
- 15:12I mean, at first I was like, whoa, whoa, that seems real
- 15:15weird. And then I dove into it a lot
- 15:17more and I was like, Oh no, this seems super cool.
- 15:19As a dad, you're gut reaction was like that seems weird
- 15:23because you're a dad. Yeah, 100%.
- 15:25Coming at this without having any knowledge in terms of of
- 15:29what it was. I was like, oh, is there an
- 15:30incestuous aspect to this? Is there going to be something
- 15:34weird where she wants me to like, pretend I'm her father
- 15:36while we're having sex? God I would not be comfortable
- 15:40with for a lot of reasons. Thank you for bringing those
- 15:43things up though, that's really good because those are really
- 15:45common misconceptions that I forget about when I'm this deep
- 15:48into kink in general. You're right, people do think
- 15:51that. And you're right because like,
- 15:52I'm not that deep into this world, right?
- 15:55So for me, what's interesting is like learning some of these
- 15:57aspects. And then as I did a little more
- 15:59research on that, it actually seemed it's going to sound
- 16:02weird, but almost like a very kind kind of Dom sub.
- 16:06Caretaker role. So I think some of my questions
- 16:08for you and I actually asked this to her to master, I was
- 16:10like, hey, if you're DDLG component of this, this is this
- 16:14more in the bedroom? Is this more out of the bedroom?
- 16:16Do they blend together? I think I said I'd love to know
- 16:19more about how this works for you so I can make sure that I'm
- 16:22delivering this in a way that works best for you.
- 16:24But in your experience, is that more out of the bedroom?
- 16:27In the bedroom, I'm assuming it kind of blends together with the
- 16:30two. So last week's episode, I was
- 16:32actually talking to someone who's starting a party in Vegas
- 16:35called 30 Daddy's Party room in Vegas, right?
- 16:38We talked about there's such a big spectrum with this type of
- 16:42play. So even if it's DDLG, it can be
- 16:45in the bedroom, it can be 24/7. It doesn't always have to
- 16:48include any type of age play. Some people just like the term
- 16:52daddy as an honorific and they like being called a little girl,
- 16:55but in their head, there's no age play involved at all.
- 16:57And for people like that, it might be more just in the
- 17:00bedroom as opposed to outside. And for very few people is it
- 17:0424/7 all the time? But sometimes that dynamic
- 17:07exists throughout the relationship.
- 17:09So it's sort of zipped in and out of it.
- 17:11There's never a direct answer to a question like that because
- 17:15it's like, it depends on the people.
- 17:16So do you know if she was into the age play aspect of it?
- 17:20Yeah, because she specifically put it on her profile and the
- 17:22girl I'm going out on Friday specifically put in her profile
- 17:25age play. So can we dive into that a
- 17:26little bit more? Can you explain some of those
- 17:28dynamics? Yeah.
- 17:30So age play can exist where someone is basically just
- 17:32playing an age or in their head, they are interested in playing
- 17:37an age that isn't their own age, right.
- 17:39And it doesn't mean that they're regressing necessarily back to
- 17:42that age, but they can enjoy, they indulge in playing like a
- 17:45child. And for some people, that's
- 17:47actually being it. It can be any age, usually
- 17:50younger than what they actually are.
- 17:52I've never heard of anyone playing anyone older.
- 17:55But for example, there are like there's mids, middles who are
- 17:59maybe more of those teenage years.
- 18:01There's a whole chart of different ages of what people
- 18:03are, but it's different for everyone.
- 18:05Some people say they're into age play and they're really into
- 18:09being super young, like toddler level.
- 18:11Am I dressed like someone who's a toddler?
- 18:13I have never once talked about this on Instagram or TikTok
- 18:17because it is the most divisive thing ever.
- 18:20There's a strong element within me that I can feel is like kind
- 18:24of resistant, uncomfortable with this, my dirty size.
- 18:27Like hey, you want to pretend you're 16 fucking was partying.
- 18:30You want to go any lower than that like.
- 18:32And that's totally fair. It's about your own comfort
- 18:35level, which you know, it's just really difficult than when I'm
- 18:38trying to explain it. There are people who, I don't
- 18:41know if you've ever heard of this, but ABDL adult baby diaper
- 18:44lover. There are people who love to be
- 18:46in diapers. Sometimes they just like to wear
- 18:48them, sometimes they like to use them and be changed.
- 18:52It's such a range. And then there's there are a lot
- 18:54of arguments online about age play and whether it's regression
- 18:57or just play. When I was diving into and I
- 19:00started reading more about this, I was also candidly a little bit
- 19:03concerned if there would be a psychological component there.
- 19:05That was, How do I phrase this? I was concerned about some
- 19:09psychological instability and about some stuff that might be
- 19:11psychologically unhealthy. In order for me to like to find
- 19:14any sort of arousal, it has to come from a place of comfort,
- 19:18obviously. Like the idea of doing
- 19:20something. If the person was like, oh, I
- 19:23want to pretend I'm like 8 or 9, I would be so zero.
- 19:27I can't do that right? Age play.
- 19:29Here's where it's at. Age play is pretending to be a
- 19:33certain age, and you do not have to be OK with someone pretending
- 19:37to be 6 years old. That is not your thing.
- 19:39It sounds like you're OK with someone pretending to be a
- 19:41teenager like in high school. Sounds like the age maybe you
- 19:44started being sexually active you're kind of OK with and then.
- 19:47Let's just so anybody watching, we're talking like 1617, OK?
- 19:51And and for the record, for anybody watching, I'm not having
- 19:54sex with any 16 or 17 year olds. The other thing?
- 19:57Not happening either. Thank you for like saying these
- 19:59things because age play is not actually having sex with anyone
- 20:02who is underage, it's people. Tending to be those ages and
- 20:07there is no shame in any different age.
- 20:09It's about our own personal comfort level.
- 20:11That said, one of the things I want to highlight that this
- 20:13definitely isn't is regression. This isn't someone, when you're
- 20:16doing age play, you're really just like I'm playing pretend,
- 20:19sort of like I'm pretending to be the handyman here to fix your
- 20:22fridge. You're not actually going to
- 20:24take a fridge apart during that role play.
- 20:27With age play, you're just pretending to be a different age
- 20:30than you are. And it's sort of this elaborate
- 20:32role play. It is not the person regressing
- 20:36back to that age and really losing themselves in that as a
- 20:40like to cope with things. It's not.
- 20:42OK. That is therapy related, not
- 20:45role play. So you really, when you're
- 20:46talking age play, you want to make sure you're in that role
- 20:48play space. Did this person seem like they
- 20:51wanted to be in the role play space?
- 20:53Yeah, I don't know yet. Pulling it up right now.
- 20:55I said I'd love, I'd love to learn more about what you're
- 20:57looking for here and see if we have a good vibe slash
- 21:00chemistry. And she was like, you know what?
- 21:02I'm in terms of what I'm looking for.
- 21:03It's pretty much exactly what I wrote in my bio to be honest.
- 21:06Dating without intention based on what feels right with that
- 21:09person. Ideally looking for something
- 21:10long term but don't mind taking my time and I've never been big
- 21:14on life's roles, timelines and that kind of stuff.
- 21:17She didn't expand into any of her personal kinks on her
- 21:21profile, she said. I'm open to explore but also
- 21:23roughly know what I do like EG age gap.
- 21:27So oh shit, she's at age gap, not age play, so that's maybe
- 21:30different. Praise primal bondage, MFM and
- 21:34what I don't like, for example, punishment pain for pain sake.
- 21:37Not quite unexperienced, but some of these acronyms could be
- 21:40indecipherable, those sort of thing.
- 21:42This other girl, yeah, this one, this other.
- 21:44The 1st girl, the 21 year old said mostly into DDLG and age
- 21:47play. So a little different than age
- 21:49gap I guess. Yeah, so that was the younger
- 21:52girl who sort of stopped talking to as much, but yeah.
- 21:54And you don't know details of how, what age range?
- 21:57No, I really want to find that chart.
- 21:59My girlfriend sent it to me because similar to you, I'm
- 22:03like, yeah, I can play 16, but that's pretty much as low as it
- 22:06goes. And even then it's it's more the
- 22:07fact that I like a schoolgirl outfit.
- 22:09Back when I was worked at the dungeon, that schoolgirl outfit
- 22:12was a big money maker. But OK age play and just while
- 22:16we're on it can come in different ranges.
- 22:18You've already identified your cutoff point of like, oh, and
- 22:21that happens. You can be like, I don't really
- 22:23age play below 16. Sometimes younger people that
- 22:25are if someone wants to age play younger, they might enjoy
- 22:28stuffed animals, coloring, arts and crafts, being like read a
- 22:32bedtime story and put to bed. It's arranged, it's just not for
- 22:35you. I can't do anything that I would
- 22:38do with my son. That's not going to fly.
- 22:41OK, that's a really good boundary.
- 22:43And that is something that I always wonder about with parents
- 22:47because I'm dating to I date people who have kids.
- 22:50And that boundary for some people exists of like, no, you
- 22:52cannot call me daddy. I cannot take that.
- 22:55And then other people are more OK with it.
- 22:58Daddy Capone? I don't.
- 22:59I don't know. I wonder if it's also different
- 23:02because you have a son A. Million percent.
- 23:04I thought about that. I was like, if I have a daughter
- 23:05and I heard that, I'd probably be like Nope.
- 23:07Yeah, it just would change, I think.
- 23:08That carries a little more intensity in terms of the
- 23:12position. It doesn't have to, though.
- 23:14Honorifics can be made-up, and they're not just for the
- 23:15dominant role. Baby girl, has anything really
- 23:18thrown you in the dating world right now?
- 23:21No, not yet. I haven't been out of it.
- 23:23Be honest with you. I haven't gotten the reps in yet
- 23:25where I'm like shit after me a little.
- 23:26Bit now I'm wondering, I really like to test different things
- 23:29out on my dating profiles, like saying different things, putting
- 23:32stuff in there. You sound really open minded
- 23:34about the DDLG thing and I'm like are people more open to
- 23:37that then I think I don't have anything on my profile like that
- 23:40because I like the honorific of daddy.
- 23:42I want someone I call daddy. I like the caretaker Dom roll
- 23:47but not the H play side of it. Oh, quick question with regards
- 23:50to that aftercare. What normally comes in aftercare
- 23:52for a DDLG component? Oh, really good question.
- 23:55Aftercare once again, individual to everyone, you got to ask the
- 23:59person beforehand, right? But for a lot of people who the
- 24:02littles thing, it's a really good question because they might
- 24:07want to be called good girl both in it and during aftercare.
- 24:11They might want aftercare within the roles and within the
- 24:13dynamic. They might want it after outside
- 24:15of the dynamic, depending on if it's bedroom only.
- 24:18So someone said that they're not into punishment, right, and not
- 24:21into physical pain. So they probably wouldn't be
- 24:23into spanking or any corporal punishment because of that.
- 24:27The aftercare probably wouldn't need to be very physical on any
- 24:30part of their body. It would much more need to be
- 24:32like you did a great job, words of affirmation you'd ask them
- 24:36and cuddling. I feel like cuddling is always a
- 24:38good aftercare for people who want it.
- 24:41It's just aftercare is one of those things you have to discuss
- 24:43and negotiate to like. For example, my version of
- 24:46aftercare is always like, you need to text me the next day.
- 24:49I need to have access to be able to text you the next day because
- 24:52if I'm dropping, I know the one thing that will calm me down.
- 24:55Dropping meaning when you're in play like that, you can reach
- 24:58subspace and have this elated experience and then what goes up
- 25:01must come down. I feel sad the next day.
- 25:03I want to be able to talk to the person.
- 25:04You just want to be there because you've provided such a
- 25:07caretaking, supportive role before.
- 25:09It's how can you best be there for them?
- 25:11Honestly, the days after play happens.
- 25:14That makes sense. Yeah.
- 25:15That answer is going to apply to every single type of play.
- 25:18Yeah, that's kind of what I figured.
- 25:19I just wasn't sure if there was anything.
- 25:21Yeah, OK, that's what I figured. But you also get aftercare and
- 25:23should advocate for that too because you don't know what it's
- 25:26going to be like afterwards. You might feel because honestly
- 25:28you might feel gross the next day.
- 25:30I have had doms or people in the top position tell me that they
- 25:33feel guilty, disgusting, perverted for what they did or
- 25:37what they were interested in. There can be a cycle of shame,
- 25:40like really enjoying yourself and then feeling ashamed and
- 25:43aftercare and being assured that it was really enjoyable for
- 25:46everyone can be helpful too. I.
- 25:48Get it? Are you sleep with someone on
- 25:50the first date type of person? Yeah, I'm hoping for it for
- 25:52sure. I mean, it's interesting though,
- 25:53because like there is a part of me because again, this is the
- 25:55first, the first date I will have gone on in 15 years.
- 25:58I'm kind of, I have like two sides to me right now.
- 26:01One which is the yeah, like let's fucking go.
- 26:04And the other part of me did is also just like, I'd really like
- 26:07to go have two drinks and then just get the fuck out of there
- 26:11and just kind of like easing myself back in.
- 26:13But I'm just going to completely play it by what's the vibe.
- 26:17You really like talking to people.
- 26:18I can't imagine you just going on a date for two drinks.
- 26:21Yeah, like I'm, let's put it this way, I'm going on a date
- 26:24and hopefully we're going to have an absolute blast from
- 26:26wherever the night goes. The night goes, right?
- 26:28If I sit down with this person and I'm like, oh, this isn't
- 26:31fun, then I'll just, you know, excuse myself after a couple
- 26:35drinks and just go home. Yeah, I think in a good way.
- 26:37I'm not putting any pressure on myself for anything to turn out
- 26:40any which way. Right.
- 26:42And I'm kind of curious about your opinion on this.
- 26:44Like, there is a part of me that is assuming like, OK, I'm
- 26:46meeting this person through Field.
- 26:48There's a different vibe that comes with Field that I think
- 26:51than there does for like Hinge or maybe some of the other apps
- 26:55Maybe I'm wrong. Again, I don't have enough
- 26:56experience to draw upon Red. I don't have enough data points
- 26:59where I'm like, is there more of an expectation?
- 27:02But like both ways where it's like, hey, we met on this app.
- 27:05This is what this is. She just told like she has her
- 27:07initials up as her profile. And like she just like she was
- 27:11like, Oh my gosh, I forgot to tell you my name, blah, blah,
- 27:13blah. Like in our literal last text
- 27:14after we've been texting for like a week.
- 27:15And I was like, yeah, setting a date without knowing someone's
- 27:18name on field kind of feels on brand, you know what I mean?
- 27:20It's like kind of like cover. You can make up a fake name on
- 27:23there I assume. Are you Zach on there?
- 27:26Yeah, OK. I gave you a full name, address,
- 27:28security number. Just did the whole thing.
- 27:29Wait in your head when you were going to text or we were just
- 27:31like I'm going to text like CJ or whatever initial she used?
- 27:35I just figured that wasn't her name, it was else it was 2
- 27:38letters, 3. Those are initials.
- 27:39All right? Figure everybody on field was
- 27:41like named like TJ and like LC. And I was like, yeah.
- 27:46I don't just want their name, I want their astrological chart
- 27:48which just like their. I haven't been on a date in 15
- 27:52fucking years. You know how happy someone was,
- 27:54Like, hey, you want to go get a drink?
- 27:55And I was like, yeah. OK, that's fair.
- 27:57Wait, did she ask you for the? Drink.
- 27:59No, I asked. I actually really was thinking
- 28:01about this where I was like the dynamics of who's asking who and
- 28:04who's planning and doing all these things are going to be
- 28:06more important on this app than I think in another one.
- 28:08They'd be important anywhere, but especially in my opinion,
- 28:11like if I'm if the Dom sub kind of dynamic exists in a much
- 28:16higher prevalence here. My intuition told me it was
- 28:19important to you have certain people asking certain people
- 28:22out. And I even asked her too, like
- 28:24in this thing. I was like, all right, cool.
- 28:26Like so sounds like we're going on a date.
- 28:28Like you ready for a date? She was like, absolutely.
- 28:30So then I asked her too. I was like, all right, so
- 28:32question, should I start planning?
- 28:34And then I asked her. I was like, hey, do you want me
- 28:37to take the lead on making the plans, or would you prefer if we
- 28:41kind of figured this out together?
- 28:42And I literally said, like, field can be a particular place.
- 28:45And she was like, oh, no, no, I do a lot of planning.
- 28:47I'd be, I'm immensely attracted to a guy who takes the reins.
- 28:50And I was like, done. I got it.
- 28:51That's a really common request. It's for the guy to plan a date
- 28:56and prove that they can. In a world where now everyone's
- 28:59making it. Like if men and women are
- 29:01making, they're not making the exact same amount of money, but
- 29:03everyone's in the professional space.
- 29:05You got to set yourself the part somehow.
- 29:07Being the planner is a big deal. So I like that you did that.
- 29:11Again, can't blanket statement it because I won't even go on
- 29:14Bumble because you make the first message or make the first
- 29:17move as a woman. They changed it I think, but I'm
- 29:20like, I'm not doing that. I want someone to make the first
- 29:22move with me unless I switch. And sometimes if I see a
- 29:26submissive profile, I'm like, OK, I will make that move.
- 29:29You're spot on. These things matter.
- 29:31There's no pretending that they don't.
- 29:32I guess for some people it might not, but it does matter.
- 29:35It's same reason I probably won't go talk to someone one in
- 29:37public, like I won't make the first move no matter the app.
- 29:40People are going to appreciate that on Hinge field no matter
- 29:44what it is. I actually think people are more
- 29:47open minded to a very just casual let's get drinks or
- 29:51coffee on field without any expectation of it going further.
- 29:55Because that's sort of it's about vetting the person.
- 29:57It's about getting their vibe. You're doing a vibe check and I
- 30:00feel that's understood on field in a way that Hinge, in my
- 30:04experience, can be hit or miss with what people expect from it.
- 30:07Yeah, because for me, this is a vibe check.
- 30:09So will you be more likely to seek out someone who wants a
- 30:12DDLG relationship, or are there other kinky relationships you
- 30:17want to explore? I think out of all this stuff
- 30:19that I've come across so far that I've looked into more of
- 30:21the DDLG is more up my alley. But I think I think there would
- 30:26be elements to potentially more of that primal aspect that
- 30:29could, that could be fun, but I don't, I don't know if that
- 30:32really falls under like the hardcore kink component of it.
- 30:35And that's again, that's something.
- 30:36And then I'm very open to exploring.
- 30:38And I think it'd be very fun to explore.
- 30:39Like if I close my eyes and I allow myself to fantasize,
- 30:42there's an easy situation where I would be tying somebody up
- 30:46where I would be kind of playing that role very much in command
- 30:51of the situation that I think it could be very fun do.
- 30:53You fantasize thinking about these things.
- 30:55Do you think about vanilla sex? I think it's it's more vanilla,
- 30:58but what's interesting is like I don't use porn.
- 31:01I don't use any of that stuff right from for multiple reasons.
- 31:04But what I'll tell you is when I started diving into this and I
- 31:07started fantasizing about more of like the DDLG component of
- 31:11it, I was like, oh, that shits hot like whoa.
- 31:14And there are a lot of other kind of places in my mind went
- 31:17in that sense. So it's working its way in.
- 31:20Just for context, that's one of the questions I asked.
- 31:22When someone tells me they're kinky and we're further along
- 31:24and dating, I will ask them when you masturbate, what are you
- 31:27watching or what are you thinking about?
- 31:29And for me, if they do not say the kinkier stuff, I just know
- 31:33that we are not going to align in the bedroom.
- 31:35So this is like, that's my litmus test now too.
- 31:38I'm not against vanilla sex, I just know if I'm only
- 31:40masturbating to kinky thoughts I need someone who's at that level
- 31:45and I don't know. My question for myself is, am I
- 31:48open to someone who later in life discovers that?
- 31:50Where do you fall on that? I got to tell you, I am dating
- 31:53actively and my run runner person is someone who also
- 31:58shares having what I'd consider a fetish or a kink where they
- 32:02will always imagine kinky things.
- 32:04They're not having vanilla fantasies.
- 32:06And for me, meeting and talking to someone who's like that is
- 32:09much more appealing. Like I think that that put that
- 32:12person at the front of the line. So this is a serious question,
- 32:15right? What if you came across somebody
- 32:16like me right in my exact situation where it was like,
- 32:19hey, just get out of the serious relationship That there's an
- 32:22aspect of this I'm very interested in exploring, but
- 32:24cards on the table. The experience in this world is
- 32:26minimal. No pressure.
- 32:27Take it or leave it like. If someone shows genuine
- 32:30curiosity and a willingness to learn, I'm very open to it, OK,
- 32:34because I don't want to have to teach everything if they're
- 32:36willing to just teach themselves a lot.
- 32:39And I want to learn about your process of how you've been
- 32:41researching this stuff, I'm willing to go with them on that
- 32:44journey. And one of the things I
- 32:45personally do and I've talked about this on the podcast is I
- 32:47will send them videos of things that turn me on.
- 32:49And I'm say I'm into this. I jokingly say, I will give you
- 32:52a 10 page essay on exactly what I'm into.
- 32:54Why I'm into it like this, if they're willing to take it on,
- 32:58right, And if they're willing to engage in it and the way they're
- 33:01responding to me is from sheer curiosity and not trying to
- 33:05immediately step into that role. Any of those things, I will
- 33:09consider them. The moment someone brings out a
- 33:11line like you do what I say or tries to be dominant without
- 33:15developing any type of connection first, they're done.
- 33:18So if you it sounds like you're curious, I'd be really open to
- 33:22it even though you have almost no experience.
- 33:25But I would cut it off much faster than maybe someone who is
- 33:29experienced. Yeah, no, that makes sense.
- 33:31I think it makes sense. It's really funny to me that
- 33:33this almost strikes me as like trying to get your first job
- 33:36with like a short resume. You know what I mean?
- 33:38For me, I'd be like, OK, I'm open to teaching, but you have
- 33:41to go through three extra rounds of interviews.
- 33:43If you seem like you suck, I'm cutting you.
- 33:46What research have you done? How have you researched?
- 33:49My primary is Google, right? It was a good one.
- 33:52I didn't candidly, I didn't do a ton, ton of research on to this,
- 33:55so I didn't find any like YouTube channels or anything.
- 33:57Also, I know I'm gonna talk to you so.
- 33:59I swear by Reddit because you get people's personal
- 34:02experiences. No ones overthinking it.
- 34:04It's not some essay that you need to read.
- 34:05It's literally like my girlfriend likes this and then
- 34:08some. Like really dirty in depth
- 34:11description of what that person likes.
- 34:13Yeah, let me ask you a Reddit question real quick because the
- 34:16the girl I'm going out with on Friday, on her profile, she
- 34:18wrote MFM and I was just, I was like, oh, you know, I wonder, I
- 34:21wonder if that was something that I would experiment with if
- 34:24I would go down that that path. Right.
- 34:26So then I went on when I read it and was reading kind of just
- 34:29about people's experiences with MFM.
- 34:31And then it and then it turned into like this deep dive on
- 34:34women talking about their experiences getting gang banged
- 34:36and like, I'm being completely serious.
- 34:37Like in general. How do you think all the stuff
- 34:40that you read on Reddit is? Because some of the stuff that I
- 34:42was reading, I was like, this would not surprise me if this
- 34:45was a guy writing this from a perspective.
- 34:48I think that a lot of times too. But then I, especially in the
- 34:50work I do now, I never underestimate or try and
- 34:54prescribe what a man or woman would have written.
- 34:56I know sometimes it seems like a wild fucking fantasy that would
- 34:59never ever happen. But then you're in a
- 35:01conversation and someone tells you the wildest fucking story
- 35:04and it's sort of like, did you feel safe doing that?
- 35:07Because I'm constantly thinking of safe.
- 35:10I'm just like, how did you know everyone was negative for STI's?
- 35:14Like why did you feel that this was the group of people to do it
- 35:17with? What vetting did you go through?
- 35:19I ask all of these questions. Sometimes I like the answer,
- 35:22sometimes I don't. It's none of my business.
- 35:23Point is that these are real stories that I hear from the
- 35:26person who orchestrated it. I think a lot of times it is,
- 35:29and I think it's a little bit of society telling you women are
- 35:31one way, men are another and we internalize that.
- 35:34I never underestimate who can say what, no matter what their
- 35:37ages or the stories I have heard.
- 35:40But yeah, Reddit was Reddit's been an excellent place to learn
- 35:42about this stuff. So you're a personal trainer.
- 35:45Would you ever consider hiring a sex and relationship coach?
- 35:49Oh fuck yeah, of course. The way I look at coaching is
- 35:53you hire coaches to help you gain knowledge and develop
- 35:58skills in areas you just want to progress in, Right.
- 36:01Yeah. So one of my current clients
- 36:04right now is a men's dating coach.
- 36:06We've had long conversations about how to put together good
- 36:08profiles. I've read his book.
- 36:11Like, I basically just get free coaching when I'm, when we're in
- 36:14our session, and then he bounces a bunch of stuff off of me as
- 36:17well. But like, I think coaching is
- 36:18one of the single most valuable things that you can possibly
- 36:20invest in. I pay a shit load of money to
- 36:23work with different coaches for mobility for, and it's not just
- 36:26for my own personal healing, but so I can apply it to my clients.
- 36:29So when it comes to relationship and dating coaches, yeah.
- 36:32And again, I have you, right? So that's kind of a cheap code.
- 36:36But I mean, I would hire you in a fucking nanosecond if I didn't
- 36:39have you as a resource and I met you and I knew you and I was
- 36:43getting into this world. Like, of course I would because
- 36:45it's especially if you're in my position, right?
- 36:47This is a new world. I am not delved into something.
- 36:51Ryan, me, I think I would consider myself a genuine
- 36:54rookie, right? Them genuinely inexperienced in
- 36:56a long time. And there's feelings of
- 36:59confusion, a little bit of overwhelm, some intimidation
- 37:02that comes with all of this stuff.
- 37:03Like if I'm being honest about it, it's just like, whoa, like
- 37:06this is not my world. I'm curious about this.
- 37:08But I want to make sure that I navigate especially the initial
- 37:11stages correctly and in a way that's going to allow me
- 37:14candidly not to make an ass out of myself.
- 37:16And then to also to preferably cultivate a great experience for
- 37:19whoever I'm with. I care about that stuff.
- 37:22So yeah, obviously hire a coach like the best thing you can do.
- 37:25I agree and I like my clients who I work with.
- 37:29Their king journey moves so much faster and smoother and they're
- 37:32able to get more from each other as partners.
- 37:35I think there's a hesitation though, because there's also
- 37:37this thought like, oh, I should just know this stuff.
- 37:39See, I disagree with that, and I know you're not saying that, but
- 37:41I disagree with that line of thought because how are you
- 37:44supposed to know this stuff, right?
- 37:45And again, and there's also a difference between like going on
- 37:48a Reddit thread and reading it, but then getting to ask your
- 37:50coach and getting to understand the nuances of these things and
- 37:54have somebody to talk this stuff out with and kind of game plan
- 37:57on certain aspects, like not knowing anything versus going on
- 38:00Reddit. There's a big difference, but
- 38:01there's an exponential difference between just going on
- 38:04Reddit and then actually working with a professional and someone
- 38:09who is deeply experienced like like this.
- 38:11I'm not shamelessly plugging you.
- 38:13You're a fucking somewhere dumb, like you've worked in a like,
- 38:15you know you're shit and this is your world.
- 38:19I think the knowledge that and again, you're my friend.
- 38:21So I get to ask you this stuff and then I get to come on your
- 38:23podcast and like do this for free.
- 38:26But like the amount of knowledge that we that I can get from one
- 38:30conversation with you is going to outpace you.
- 38:34And I could have a 10 minute conversation, 10 minutes and I'm
- 38:37going to get more and higher quality information from that 10
- 38:40minutes then I would be able to get from probably hours and
- 38:44hours of my own independent research.
- 38:45That's 100% correct. And also like it's the added
- 38:48benefit of the person getting to know you.
- 38:50But I do have sessions where someone just comes to me.
- 38:52They pay for one hour because I'll offer that and they will
- 38:55just come with a list of questions of things that they
- 38:58don't even trust the Internet with.
- 39:00Like they don't trust Reddit because they're like I just want
- 39:02a professional answer that I trust from someone.
- 39:05Yeah. And I also think for you and for
- 39:07this world too, and, and this might resonate with some of
- 39:09your, some of your listeners a little bit more than me.
- 39:11Be somebody in my sense, right? But especially if you're getting
- 39:14into this and there are aspects where you kind of alluded to
- 39:17before about maybe some shame about some deeper areas where
- 39:21you may almost consider like, Oh my God, like, am I allowed to
- 39:23think like this? I'm a pretty secure person in
- 39:25myself. And some of like, where am I
- 39:27allowed my brain to go when I was having some happy adult
- 39:29dirty thoughts about, you know, certain aspects of DDLG and I
- 39:33was like, all right, cool. Guess what?
- 39:34I'm still perverted, but I can really understand too, where as
- 39:40we move into this, and I'll include myself in this because
- 39:42there were aspects of this where it's like, is this appropriate?
- 39:45Am I crossing lines? Is this OK?
- 39:48How do I do this in the right way?
- 39:49Like is there something wrong with me?
- 39:51And I think I think the ability, if you're going through that
- 39:55aspect of the journey, to have a coach, another human who is
- 39:58deeply versed in this world that you can talk to about these
- 40:01things can be really, really, really powerful and important
- 40:04too for somebody's own personal feelings of like.
- 40:08OK, I'm good. But then also again, like how do
- 40:10we navigate certain situations where maybe it is a little bit
- 40:13dicier and you want to explore those areas, but you want to do
- 40:15it in the right way? That's literally what I do
- 40:17exactly. Thank you.
- 40:18You get it without having gone through a code.
- 40:21Well, I feel like our sessions of personal training, we did go
- 40:25through some stuff like this or discussing stuff like this, but
- 40:28it's the fundamentals are the same of like why you would seek
- 40:31out extra help. Same why I went to you.
- 40:33They're exactly the same. You taught me to work out was
- 40:35really tailored to me. I know where my shortcomings are
- 40:38and there are things that even then going to big classes like
- 40:41Barrys Boot camp or something, I knew how to adjust things
- 40:44because you told me your body doesn't work like that so you
- 40:47have to fix it this way and. Then there's also that huge
- 40:49aspect, like, especially if you talk about gym stuff where it's
- 40:51like just having somebody to help you get comfortable in a
- 40:54gym setting, get out of your own head sometimes, which we all get
- 40:57into it. And like, like I was even having
- 40:59this discussion with with one of my newer clients and she was
- 41:01like, you know, I know when I go to the gym, I know nobody's
- 41:04looking at me and I should just get out of my head.
- 41:06And I was like, we'll call her Jessica.
- 41:07I was like, Jessica, that's inaccurate.
- 41:08Everybody's looking at you. Like anybody who thinks that you
- 41:11go to the gym and no one's paying attention to you is
- 41:12completely wrong. Everybody's sizing each other
- 41:14up, everybody's looking at each other, everyone's judging each
- 41:16other. That's actually the reality of
- 41:18the gym. So let's just get that out of
- 41:20the way and then we can figure out like, Hey, where do we want
- 41:22to put you in certain aspects of the gym?
- 41:25And we game plan this whole thing where if she goes into the
- 41:27gym on her own in the beginning, she's just walking on a
- 41:29treadmill and she gets more comfortable.
- 41:30And then when she wants to lift, she goes in like a certain area
- 41:33in the corner where fewer people can see.
- 41:35And the point about this is it's like these are the types of
- 41:37conversations you get to have with a coach of the coach is a
- 41:40good coach, which you are. And it's like, no, no, like you
- 41:44get to talk those things through.
- 41:45And I think that mental component of it is huge as well.
- 41:47It's not just the technical aspect, it's the mental
- 41:49component too. Well, like it comes full circle
- 41:50to how I felt more confident just telling guys like, Oh yeah,
- 41:53I worked with a coach, I had a personal trainer.
- 41:56It matters and it does. That confidence has stayed with
- 41:58me years after. Like you haven't been my
- 42:01personal trainer for two or three years, but I still do some
- 42:05of the same workouts. I think those are all of my
- 42:07questions that I had for you. I'm really glad to have this
- 42:10answered, although I always knew you were a Dom just from the
- 42:13things you I was like he definitely is, but I also wasn't
- 42:16going to get into it with you and now we know.
- 42:18I'm like upset we didn't get into it because I feel like that
- 42:21was our relationship and we talked about everything else.
- 42:23I. Was excited to go through all of
- 42:24these things especially because we had we have talked possibly
- 42:29one of the humans I've talked to most outside some of the best
- 42:33friends in my life because we had three hours a week to just
- 42:36shoot the shit I. Don't know man, the whole dating
- 42:39thing was like, I'm so happy on my own to be honest with you
- 42:42too. And like, that's the other part
- 42:43of it. That's when you're supposed to
- 42:45be dating though, when you're super happy on your own.
- 42:47Because I'm just like, I have my own fucking spot.
- 42:49I come home, I do my own thing. I feel great.
- 42:51Like I wake up, I go, I go do work, work's going well, I got
- 42:54my boys and I'm just like, I would like, honestly, it's just
- 42:57like I want to get laid. I also do know that like if I
- 43:00found somebody who I really liked, I would want to spend
- 43:02time with them. But I also don't know how I'm
- 43:04going to fit this into my life, but I'll cross that bridge when
- 43:06I come to it. I think one of the worst things
- 43:08I could possibly do is try to overthink this before I'm in it.
- 43:11Does that make sense? And that makes total sense.
- 43:13There's a possibility that you also just need to enjoy having
- 43:16your own space for a while. There is a possibility that
- 43:18something could come along. I'm really big on intentional
- 43:21dating. You've identified your need of
- 43:24having sex. That's something you want to do
- 43:26now. That's what you're optimizing
- 43:27for. That's the thing.
- 43:29You optimize for what you're looking for.
- 43:31The reason I always say that is because some people, especially
- 43:33in the kink world, a lot of people are like, oh, I want a
- 43:36Dom. I want a Dom.
- 43:36And I'm like, do you want that Dom to be your partner in life,
- 43:39or do you just want them to be a Dom and they hedge their bets?
- 43:43And I'm really against hedging your bets.
- 43:45I'm like, no, if you want your boyfriend or girlfriend to be
- 43:50your Dom or your sub or whatever it may be, I'm like, you have to
- 43:53go for it. And I think that's one of the
- 43:55major reasons why I kind of stopped fucking around on Hinge.
- 43:58And I just started messing around on field a little bit
- 43:59more. And I was like, my intention
- 44:01here, I want to meet somebody who is happy having a casual
- 44:04sexually based relationship with somebody who is not emotionally
- 44:07or logistically available very often.
- 44:09And I'm totally fine if they're fucking other people.
- 44:12I don't want that pressure. I just like if I can get laid
- 44:14once a week, I'll be thrilled, you know what I mean?
- 44:17On that note, thank you for coming on the King Consultant.
- 44:21It has been really great talking to you.
- 44:23I appreciate sharing your story so openly.
- 44:26Isn't it crazy that the last time you dated there weren't
- 44:30multiple apps to choose from? There are apps for every
- 44:34situation now. The person that I just ended it
- 44:36with, we met on an app specifically for kinky dating.
- 44:40You know there's no need to live in the in between anymore it.
- 44:44Makes so much sense. It's great.
- 44:45It makes all this 100 times easier.
- 44:47But yeah man, I am it. It fucking dates me.
- 44:49I'm 36, I hadn't been on a date since I was 28.
- 44:52But it's kind of fun your wits about you and realize like when
- 44:55you're swiping on people, there is another person on the other
- 44:57side of that app, you know, and talking.
- 44:59And I think that's the mind fuck that a lot of us go through
- 45:02because because when you can keep swiping like, and I don't
- 45:05like doing that to people, but sometimes it's the balance of
- 45:07how overwhelming it is versus my energy.
- 45:10But also, if I get a very thoughtful message, that's what
- 45:13I try and respond to a hello, I don't have any guilt of not
- 45:16responding to all right. All right.
- 45:18Thanks, Coach. Yep.
- 45:20All right, man, great talking to you.
- 45:21I'm out of here. All right.
- 45:22Have a good night. Thanks for coming on.
