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've sent this.

Tbh I'm not sure where the confusion has come from, fair enough I said there was nothing to be ashamed of and there wouldn't be any judgement from me, but knowing me you'd already know that, you know I'm not kinky, you know I'm very shy, why on earth would you keep pushing and pushing on this topic? Unless you just don't care about my comfort levels. I'm beginning to think it isn't something you're ashamed of, if it was you've done a very quick 180. I don't see how we can remain friends and have normal conversations again since I'm always going to be on edge and I don't deserve that.

Wow OP this is the perfect response! Well done for sending it. Seriously. You can relax now without worrying about the next missive😊

And I've just blocked him, so he can't have the last word. I'm petty like that.

Well done for binning and blocking.

Out of curiosity is he one of those that likes to be 'encased' head to toe in tights?

People who are actually suicidal don’t use it as a threat or tell people about it.

That always seemed a dangerous argument to me. If someone genuinely has suicidal thoughts, they might be afraid to tell anyone because they think they won't be believed.

I get your point but what I’m referring to here is the “I’m so weird I might as well kill myself.” “I’d rather be dead than live without you” types.

As a professional it’s not about not taking seriously the people who have suicidal thoughts. Of course we should and we should ask and encourage people to talk about it. But many people have suicidal thoughts sadly and not all actually intend to do it. It’s much more worrying to have someone who denies it while storing up pills etc and those who use it as a threat are generally speaking not intending to actually do it (or if they do it is a further behaviour to control and manipulate). It’s complex and not easily discussed in this way but wanted to clarify my thinking!

YourRubyLion · 10/11/2024 13:33

Hurrah, well done OP. Him and his fetish are no longer your problem. Enjoy a nice cup if tea.

Birdseyetrifle · 10/11/2024 13:36

Well done. What’s the kink though? I’m very lost by it all.

I agree. I've only know 2 people who committed suicide and neither of them ever told anyone their thoughts. That's not to say people who do talk about it aren't ever going to kill themselves and they aren't to be taken seriously. But I also think using the old " im going to kill myself" empty threat is pretty common in narcissists and a handy tool they have in their back pocket whenever the need arises.

Does he dress up as a nazi?

Does he have a massive room full of memorabilia in his home that he invites the local Catholic priest to come and visit?

There is a fine line somewhere between kinky and perverted. He’s way over the line. I would get this ended now.

What's that old quote about erotically using a feather being kinky; whilst using the entire chicken is just perverted?!

sausagesforteaagain · 10/11/2024 13:43

But we mostly guessed baby versus furry versus cock cage ???

Is he a furry, or does he want to dress up as an adult baby?

Kneebonefuture · 10/11/2024 14:01

I thought furries were more cosplay?

I do wonder if any woman has ever been turned on by the adult baby scenario. I realise it's kind if the point of a kink that it's something other people don't understand but I'd be amazed if any women were genuinely getting off on pretending to be a man's mum.
