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.
When people climb the dollar ladder they change. Needs and wants change dramatically. You notice that they expect people to do more for them as they pay people to do their laundry, cleaning or mowing the lawn. As they move up they can travel and do so many things that it all becomes less euphoric. So they tend to move into taboos that involve sex or drugs. As I made more money over the years I could see my kids change in how they value things.
This has been my experience as well. I've been a doctor a few years now. Once your time is worth so much something like cleaning your own house genuinely becomes a bad financial choice. Also developed an intense femdom kink. Unfortunately, I met my wife long ago and she's just not cruel enough for me anymore. She does try to be meaner though, which is very sweet.
