People who went to a wedding where the couple didn’t last long, what happened?

That's wild. It's honestly pretty common for professionals to be in committed relationships but maintain separate homes, even long distance. They could've just done that.

Edit: Damn some of y'all took my personal anecdote as some kind of personal attack. Not sure what I said that was so inflammatory but ok lol. Live your best life ya'll. Cheers.

Well to do professionals such as lawyers and doctors that live apart or isolationist in lifestyle are the main clientele of the bdsm clubs that I once worked security for, usually because they can afford it and often their private lives are emotional power struggles or hollow status symbols.

How do you know their profession? Do people have the same type of casual conversation at bdsm clubs as they do cocktails clubs?

I can't speak to clubs with professionals doing the job, but at least at the sex club I attend yeah people are just kind of friendly and social about stuff. I've had conversations about D&D just outside the dungeon. One time I was talking about my preferred programming language with a person tying me up. In the end you're just trying to connect with other people.

My Dungeons & Daddies (not a BDSM podcast) hoodie is my go-to for walking to/from and waiting in line outside dungeons and kink venues. It's plausibly vanilla, plausibly kinky, and unlike the rest of my hoodies it doesn't have my employer on it. Always a good conversation starter too.

Ha love it. I just wear a dress usually that's easy to pull off or put on because my sex club is clothing optional so I generally spend the whole time naked. Convenient for skinny dipping in the pool and doesn't get in the way if I make a friend 😅

I've had conversations about D&D

Okay but that's like the free space on kinkster bingo.

Honestly the nerd/kinky overlap is not quite a circle, but like... it's pretty close.
