    So things had been going great in our FLR we had been making real progress but, my wife completely shut down. She wasn’t very interested in being in charge anymore and and she wasn’t being affectionate at all. She’s never been a lovey touchy person but she stopped touching kissing and hugging me all together! We talked about it and she said that when I’m acting like her slave she’s not attracted to me at all and she just wants to go back to “being normal”.

    Have any of you had problems like this? Especially the women here, are you not attracted to your husbands as slaves??

    Once my wife discovered the pleasure she derives from being in a dominant position, she no longer gives up on it, on the contrary, she lives in a state of excitement never experienced before.
    On the other hand, this has led her to hunt sex outside the couple and I'm not allowed to question this as she says that only other men can offer her the level of sex that a female like her deserves.

    It depends on your approach what kind of slave you’re trying to be versus what your wife wants you to be... My wife loves to be served and pampered while I’m retaining a submissive disposition to her but one thing she is completely turned off by sissies. Not that she has any sort of problem with sissies in general but she doesn’t want to view her man as one. Of course I don’t know what approach you took and what your wife was expecting but ask her what she was expecting from you and maybe you both can start from there.

    My wife and I found there was an awkward phase in the very beginning while we were figuring out our roles. FLR was completely new to us and ironically when I asked for chastity and FLR at the start she said no to FLR. Then one day we both realized we had evolved into an FLR because of chastity and now she wouldn’t have it any other way. This is where communication is essential between the two of you, but even more importantly is knowing what she wants so the idea of chastity is attractive to her. Don’t give up just yet, find out what’s bothering her and work with her.
    There’s also the possibility she enjoys a more submissive role herself versus trying to be dominant. For some some women the idea of being dominant is the turn off to which there’s no real getting around that. So talk to her and be completely open to what’s bothering her.

    I'm very attracted to my husband but I don't consider him my slave. He is submissive at times and I like exercising dominance. But at times I feel like my husband isn't attracted to me when I'm in that role. I don't know if it's my perception or if that's indeed the case but it makes things difficult at times.

    No problem there at all. But I am turned off by whiny, wimpy, weakling, softy complainers, certainly.

    It depends how you act as a "slave", and conversely, what "normal" for you would be.

    You can be quite manly, and still worship her completely, like you should.

    We need more details about what being her slave means to you and how you take care of her.

    Do you know what she needs but might not know herself?

    Do you focus on what she finds exciting and turns her on?

    Have you given up your fantasies to focus on hers?

    I am far from an experienced sub/slave. I consider myself more of a switch. However, I would think even dominant women would like a man to have his own internal sense of purpose, to create romance (even if she gives you an opportunity to learn and rejects the situation), to see and express the beauty inside the woman, and to support her/stand up for her.

    I hope your situation improves. Remember that even if she says she wants to return to a more normal life, you don’t have to stop showing her that she is your queen.

    I can sympathise with this.But I am on the other end.I realised I did not fancy the submissive men I met.My ex was switch but I never allowed him to Dominate Me.Thats why It stopped working.We both wanted different things.We were only 21 when We met.I decided to separate the whole thing.Have a sub on the side.Full chastity.No affection at all...Just him willingly doing My bidding, never fancied, or was attracted to any of My subs.My Long term partner of over twenty one years together,is not My sub.
    I am sexually and lovingly attracted to My non sub partner.He is very kind,protective and treats Me like a Queen,but he never shows a needy side.I am turned off by needy men.I am very independent and need My space.

    That's exactly it. And that's what's missing from our interaction - or so it feels.

    That is a hard place to be. Good communication seems to be an important step in such relationships. Sometime better communication starts with focus listening as well as observing non- verbal clues

    @Blue00 that's true and it's a difficult discussion to have without coming across as too demanding or suspicious or anything else that would turn him off completely.

    Most people don’t get married so they can have a pet to take care of...obedient and doting as they may be. That being said, that kind of behavior could be limited to sessions or done in a different manner.

    I know my wife would hate having a slobbering mess of a partner, the fun she does have in all of this is making someone like me break. She wouldn’t want me broken all the time though.

    I would suggest like others to talk, find out what turns her on, and find a way to compromise. I have heard of wives that don’t sexually get turned on by being dominant and are basically submissive. They compromise by her directing. Such as “I am letting you out of your cage and you are going to fuck me like you own me, I’ll let you know if you can cum”.

    100% accept your perspective which is why I suggest focused listening and careful observing as the initial action for improving communication. I did fail to point out that more questions or more discussions might not be the best first step to improving communication . Thank you for point that out.

    I do all the chores like cooking, cleaning etc. and she says she likes that but it turns her off to see me as being weak. I asked her what that means and she said we’ll have to talk about it tomorrow. I don’t whine or act wimpy, I just do my chores and massage her feet before we go to bed at night. On fridays we go over my work and she punishes me for what I didn’t get done. That’s the broad strokes of what we do so I don’t understand

    This is exactly what she told me:

    I need to do work and go to bed but I wanted to answer your question. Dont get wrong I like it when you do things for me but when it comes to being a slave it makes me think you are weak and I am not attracted to that at all. I am attracted to confident, clean cut, put together, intelligent, kind man

    So it’s her perception of slaves in general that’s the problem. What’s funny is, what she describes she likes is how many submissive men generally behave. Maybe you guys can move away from the word and concept of “slave” and turn it into something else that will suit her.

    You need to find a true dominant who likes subs or slaves. Your problem will get worse as you both age.

    Then be a “knight”.
    I’m not a slave myself.

    we drifted apart my wife and I because I kept layering on expectations that it made it a “chore” or something she needed to build up steam and energy to have a big scene.

    I shed all that. I shed expectations. I decided to focus on her and stop masturbating to porn. Porn that made me disappointed in our sex life. And kink that made me need toys to have fun. there is nothing wrong with porn or toys except when they got in the way.

    Masturbation denial (not chastity) helped make me more interesting and exciting to play with. I focused on making her happy with non sexual things. It started with coffee at her bedside table and a kiss. It then became cuddling.

    Then she agreed I should get pierced and I found myself in custom Contender secured by my very “real chastity” piercing all that very year. It’s been a wonderful journey.

    But it started when I shed expectations. I focused on being helpful, kind, and not pushing for sex or scenes. I put it in her hands. Literally and figuratively. She had control. She shot me down when I started whining or jumping up on her like a puppy. She wisely ignored bad behavior.

    Everything blossomed from me being a gentleman and a friend.

    I’m not “weak”. I demonstrate intense willpower and willingness to let go and let her decide. It’s a more real submission than the scene based stuff. It’s daily.

    Good luck to you.

    All I know is my wife got much more attracted to me when she had real power. I’m more fun to play with now. Before I was in control and made her feel she needed to live up to expectations that kept getting higher and higher.

    I’ve been the nice guy and have Not pushed for kink and domination but have still done everything a submissive would do that is non kinky in our relationship for years and years. Basic things like me doing all the chores has pretty much been the norm most of our marriage. What it’s gotten me is years of frustration because I don’t get anything back. We’ve been married 16 years (I’m 36) and our relationship has had very little intimacy and sex because she doesn’t like it. So for years I’ve said that’s ok we’ll just slowly move it to an flr. We go through this cycle over and over where we try and I briefly give it 100% and get something back in the way of her playing along for a few days or maybe a week or two and then it’s just back to me doing all the same submissive things but without her reciprocating because I’ve done all the chores and other things all along anyway. She blames me that it’s my fault because I eventually drift back to the way it was before and that’s true but that’s because I didn’t get anything back from her, there was no real difference between the way it was before and when we’d try except the expectations on me get ratcheted up. I wasn’t acknowledged as a submissive, I was treated like a normal house keeper with zero kink or acknowledgement that I was doing this for her. This time I thought it was going to be different because she read a few books on flr and slave training and seemed to play along more and work in more kink and maybe a little more acknowledgment and for a few months instead of a few weeks. I was over the moon happy and thought I should use this momentum to talk more about things and get the relationship to the point that I’ve always wanted which was just a little more domination from her but mostly just getting to the point where she was acknowledging that I was serving her all the time. In other words I just wanted her to see me and accept me as her slave or at least submissive, instead of treating me the same non kinky way you treat someone you pay to clean your house. This it seems was too far and things kind of fell apart. During that time she tells me that she’s been forcing herself to try and has really hated it all along. I had noticed that she seemed to be even less affectionate, less just basic hugging, kissing stuff like that and that’s what led me to ask her if she was even physically or sexually attracted to me anymore and this is the answer I got back. That she isn’t attracted to me as a slave because she sees me as weak. She now thinks she wants to go back to things being “normal”. What I’m worried about is I think this is just another failed attempt and restart where I’ll Continue to do all the things I’ve always done but with none of the acknowledgement and honestly domination I crave! When this happens I go through months or years of feeling alone and isolated in my desire to serve.....like I have no one who understands me. The other thing I worry about is even if I push my desires down and ignore them “normal” has never been normal, we’ve never had lots of sex and intimacy in our relationship because she just doesn’t want much of that. The whole situation is frustrating and trying to talk with her about it and see what she’s thinking and feeling is like pulling teeth. She’s busy with work all the time but she seems to actively try and avoid talking about the whole situation. I’m beyond frustrated....

    Maybe time for marriage a counselor if you’re that unhappy, seems like things go deeper than her just not wanting to dominate you.

    Ok. I understand.
    You both need to Work on the foundational relationship.
    (FLR and D/s is the icing on the cake.)

    My advice is to shed all the FLR and D/s and become friends. She needs to reserve time and energy for you.

    She can’t expend all her emotional and physical energy into work. I did. I became an asshole. I did the same myself to my wife and she got nothing from me. I did nothing at home helpful. I stopped being her friend. We just lived in the same house.

    I do sense you’re also feeling entitled and angry. So you’re not listening to her, or the advice... if she doesn’t want to do “slave training” drop it. If it doesn’t arouse her, then you’re just having her perform for you.

    Start again. Don’t give up. I went through a long decade of loneliness. In hindsight... Part was all on me. Part was on her.

    I needed a job change. She needed professional medical assistance.

    We were married before we were 25 as well. We hit some rough patches. We stuck together out of loyalty to the friends we were early on. We became friends again.

    I assume there was a simpler time in your lives that brought you two together.

    Marriage counseling is good advice. We didn’t go that route but shedding your anger and blame and focusing on communication will help.

    And be careful to listen and not clobber over her with explicit verbal and implicit communication.

    It sounds like I’m putting it all on you. But we’re talking to you. Not her. And you have things you can control.

    I’m not a marriage counselor. You might need find other sources for advice than chastity and FLR websites

    I don’t think I’m entitled I think I’m just tired and not willing to start all over with the same thing.

    We are friends, we actually get along great almost all the time. The only time we argue is when it’s about sex or an flr type relationship. If I keep it the way she likes it where we’re best friends that live together then everything is fine and she’s happy......the problem is I’m not happy with that and I’m tired of lying to myself for years and telling myself that me wanting more whether that’s normal intimacy or domination is just me being selfish or me pushing her along and having hope that she’ll come around eventually. I can’t do that anymore, I don’t want to do that to myself knowing it’s going to lead me right back into the loop of what we always do. So no I don’t think it’s on me, I think I’ve tried as hard as I can. I hope it works out but the next step is going to be up to her and it’s not looking good when she’s avoiding talking to me.

    Also I don’t want her to “perform for me” if she’s doesn’t want it. If it’s not something she could ever want then it’s going to have to be something we figure out accommodations to or it’s ultimately just going to not work

    It's hard to know other people's perspectives and dynamics without knowing whether things are long term or short term. We all have good and bad days, more stress and less stress. My wife and I have been together long over 20 years, and there are a lot of ebbs and flows. If you are in a new relationship, or if a D/s dynamic is new to you, one day or one week can seem like an eternity. Also, it is hard to lose site that there is no magic formula, and no one aspect of your relationship will make you or break you.

    Sometimes, you need to take a step back, and work on other things besides hoping for one specific outcome.

    It's also hard for me to stay out of my head. If things aren't clicking great, I try to find some other aspect of submission that requires her to do nothing, and then be PATIENT. Maybe it's personal care, maybe it is chores, maybe it is doing her favors. Find some outlet where you are not worried about how "attracted" or "into" your sub-ness she it. Try to get out of head.
