Boyfriends kink

So kind of a rude one, so I won't go into specifics. And he's not my boyfriend, he's an old fling who has been a friend for 15 years, and we were kind of thinking of getting together, but no idea how to word that.

I've always known he had a slightly kinky side, nothing mad just a little bit more adventurous than me. However he has recently revealed a kink/hobby? That i never knew about, he seemed totally ashamed and called himself a loser, a weirdo and dirty. Its really not my thing, but I don't like to judge, so just said it wasn't anything to be ashamed of and laughed it off. Hes since seemed to take that as a green light that I'm also into it. Constantly referring to it, bringing it up and fitting it into conversations that hold no relevance. And even sending photos. Should I just call things off with him, as it doesn't appear we are a match or just tell him I'm not into it, how would I even word that? Please no nasty comments, I'm a really shy and introverted person and get confused with boundary setting occasionally. Thanks 😊

I think he’s got very excited that he thinks he might potentially be able to do it with you.

and/or one of his (seemingly many!) kinks whether consciously or subconsciously is pushing boundaries, and probably just talking to you about it, sending you pics, etc is a big turn on for him maybe even more so if you’re not that into it.

I’m sorry OP but some of the suggestions to what might be the kink are fantastic 🤣.
I’ve recently noticed something. I work in a medical setting let me just say some of the admissions due to shall we say “kinky play” that gone wrong are on the rise.
Literally sometimes I think you have got to be f*ing kidding me. However each to their own, what I don’t understand is when the admission is accompanied by the wife/partner/significant other. Most times they sit there prim and proper, as if a broken glass bottle inside a rectum is normal.

I got such a clear image of the long suffering wife

A role play kink? It can only be a baby with a dummy in his mouth and shit in his pants.

This thread. Christ I feel so lucky that my partner just gets off on seeing my tits.

That's the kind of bloke I've been used to.

It sounds like it's something pretty out there, in which case he's being disingenuous about thinking you're into it. He knows you're not, he just doesn't care.

When I was in my early 20s I dated a long time friend who, it turned out, was into the furry stuff. It's sickening enough to me that him being into it put me off - and I was seriously obsessed with this man. When he told me I wasn't judgemental about it, but I didn't say that I was into it, so he never once tried to involve me in it or bring it into the bedroom.

All sexual things you introduce in a relationship require explicit and enthusiastic consent. The more out there the kink, the more explicit enthusiasm is needed. Any man who doesn't care about this isn't worth your time.

Thats the bit I'm finding creepy. The fact he's brought it up several times and not once have i replied enthusiastically. O its really pushy. I'm aware there was absolutely opportunities for me to shut it down.

I was dating a guy once and for a joke on the third date I joked about being spanked by a paddle. It was, I thought a funny joke about something i would not even ever want to do. It was a complete throwaway comment that I didnt think twice about. Next date he brings me a lovely gift bag with a proper paddle for sex games. I was mortified and gave it back. We were, I then found out sexually imcompatible as he was into really kinky stuff and I discovered I am quite prudish. We broke up shortly after . The moral is that you need to be honest with him and yourself as to where your boundaries are. If whatever his kinks are you will not ever participate in then tell him and he can make a decision as it might be something that is important to him sexually. You can tell him you respect his choices and have nothing against them but you do not want to ever participate. Then you can both decide if you want to continue. Honesty is key here, for some reasin he has the wrong idea and you need to set him straight

Yes its a role play kink.

Its an odd one as ive known him a long time and I've known about his other kinks, but this one is a new one to me and I dont think he actually does it with other people.

Yep

If it's the usual dogging, pegging, cross dressing, swinging, baked beans, calling him Margret type thing, I wouldn't be too concerned, just tell him you're not interested in any of that and don't want it brought up or mentioned again, your views will no change..etc, if he's able to respect those boundaries, great. If not, then you know the relationship can't continue.

If we're talking knife play, asphyxiation, CNC, minor role play type kinks, I'd honestly run a mile and not look back.

CookieCrumbles23 · 09/11/2024 23:47

OP, can you drop some clues? Turn this into a game of ‘who am I’? lol

Butttt, definitely back away. I was seeing a guy who sent me pictures of his bum until I eventually blocked him. It was such a turn off and I definitely didn’t ask for constant arse spam. He was testing the waters.

Crayfishforyou · 09/11/2024 23:46

Honestly OP you just need to say that whilst you are OK that that is HIS thing, it sure ain’t your thing.
And that is a cue for everyone to just move along….

Baked beans?

Amanitacae · 09/11/2024 23:43

It’s the giant man-baby thing? Must be.

I had a friend that was into this. He tested the waters by telling me and I responded much like OP "Oh well, you do you" sort of thing. He then took this as the green light to ask he to partake and be his "mother" . 😑

ChimneySweepLiverpool · 09/11/2024 23:43

Firstly, I think it's furries.

Secondly, I've been through this with a guy I was not compatible with but I stupidly loved him. He was into something and was amazed I didn't block instantly. I was polite about chatting about it because I enjoyed him paying me attention and being flirty but then it totally took over. He was obsessive and I took far too long to set boundaries. Don't be me! I look back with such an ick and I often wonder if he mentions it to women he now dates

I would tell him the kink isn't your thing and you don't want to hear about it, but that you weren't originally judging him for it. However you don'y want to hear about it.

Entertainmentcentral · 09/11/2024 23:39

I would block someone like this. He's more interested in using you than checking in with you.
