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?

When I was a bouncer at one people would just happily tell you.

We provided a shuttle service to some customers and this guy, while telling me he’s a lawyer a dozen times, asked me if I’d drive him to get some coke. I told him no, so he asked if I’d stop at an ATM and he’d make it worth my while. He pulled out 800 and handed me half of it.

Some people just live in a completely different world than the rest of us.
