Yeah, I’ve never been in a sexual relationship, vanilla or bdsm, and I also have no issues with supernatural role playing or consensual vampire bites, but all of this needs to be consensual with both parties. OP should’ve reinforced his boundaries the moment this STB ex-girlfriend literally bit off more than she was allowed to chew.

Tie you up and bite hard enough to draw blood? That could escalate quickly. OP seems like a doormat. Any rational person who wasn't into it would say "Make me bleed again and I'm leaving. DON'T DO IT".

Story 1: "She is a good person". Uh, a "good person" who is sadistic with you without consent, who dismisses and belittles you, who gets angry if you do disagree with her, and when you DO finally decide to stand up for yourself you get a full blown panic attack. The panic attack shows that your subconscious disagrees with you about this "good person" thing.

She isn’t a good person if she saw you have a panic attack while trying to communicate to her that you’re uncomfortable with her kink. Most people in the bdsm scene understand respecting someone’s boundaries/limits. Also OP said he’s spoken up a few times, saying that he was uncomfortable with drawing blood through bites. There shouldn’t have been a second time. That kind of shit will get you expelled from most bdsm groups for good reason.

[@thomasjoseph5876]

I cringe every time I hear someone describe their bad-behaving friends as "That's just how they roll" I have seen it so bad that even the badly behaving friend used to walk around saying, "That's just how I roll". Life is too short to hang around toxic people let alone toxic friends. If people still think their toxic friends might have some redeemable characteristics, fine, sit them down and have a "Come to Jesus Moment" and see why they are behaving poorly. Depending on what they say, it is either time to .... 1. Help them if possible 2. Give them an ultimatum (situations such as this are the very reason for ultimatums) 3. Cut them loose and sever all ties with them. But ignoring a friend's toxic and bad behavior should NEVER be the answer. Often people will exclude you from things simply because of your association with people they refuse to be around.

[@dagnytheartist]

Because OP's bad too. He thinks of himself as better than this guy, but he's also quick to throw his own girlfriend under the bus. As soon as the guy's like "why aren't I invited to your girlfriend's birthday" he's like "sorry bro. *I'd* invite you if it were my party, you'd be one of the first people I'd invite, but my -stupid- girlfriend -is crazy- doesn't want you around, and I have to follow her -stupid- rules."

[@shadamyandsonamylover]

@@dagnytheartisthe literally didnt say that at all. He just told the truth. Gf hates friend, therefore friend is not invited to her party. OP likes friend, that way to reassure him he wasn’t flaking him for personal reasons, he let him know that for his own party he’d invite him 100%. You are crazy.

[@dagnytheartist]

@@shadamyandsonamylover No he didnt say the cancelled words. The cancelled words are a "read between the lines" thing. The guy was throwing his girlfriend under the bus and basically saying "dont blame me! Blame my girlfriend!" It is a bad way to talk about your partner.

There are fun LARP vampire games which usually involves Victorian vampires, vampire killers, etc., then there's the people who really believe they are vampires. Some of these people are scary. One guy was a full on psychopath trolling for very young victims at a science fiction convention. I have never had my hackles rise so fast around someone. He was removed very fast. Speaking of conventions, one of the conventions I attended was at a hotel, and there was a huge LARP group attending. Everyone was in authentic Victorian dress. There was whisper about a nun in the game-laying. It turns out this woman was a real nun who just happened to be at the hotel. Once she figured out what was going on, she had a great time using her cross on the vampires, and the attendees really loved her and played along. Very funny.

The biting and drawing blood is actually dangerous if not treated properly. Most bites from humans carry a lot of bacteria and enzymes we use for aiding in digestion. Getting that into an open wound can definitely cause infections and sickness. While I imagine these bites aren't too awful initially but if it's the same spots which may prevent proper healing it can definitely make things worse and escalate quickly

[@mae-z6s]

And to quote; "Human bites can be as dangerous as or even more dangerous than animal bites because of the types of bacteria and viruses in the human mouth." If someone tried to bite me, in any context, there would be hell to pay

As a guy who has been in a serious relationship, bdsm and sex in general really requires a conversation beforehand. About boundaries, what you are and arent okay with. Some people say talking about sex ruins the mood, but i disagree. You know what really kills the mood? When you or your partner does something that yall really dont like and arent comfy with. If one person out of however many people are participating arent enjoying it, it shouldnt be done. Thats it. Consent is always sexy

I didn’t know how to steal her towards something more sedate, without spoiling the surprise. 2) We walk in to the restaraunt, I say I’m here for , and the host replies “Oh, party of 15.

Yeah as a person who participated in kink if it get's to the point where you have panic attacks when it comes to something you do not like and the concept you do not want to carry on and your partner is pressuring you to continue you are being abused and essentially are being SA'd if you are being pressured to keep on doing it. That is not at all ok. If I do kink as the person in control I will always check on limits and wants of the other person first and have my list of limits and wants even if I am in "control". Also if something new comes up, that neither tried, research is done first and then checked again and then done. Also during a time a kink thing is being done it's always best to keep checking especially when pain is involved. Like totally ignoring that stuff and carrying on regardless is a no. I have been on both ends, and in the sub side too I have been in extremes which resulted in panic attacks due to my inability to preprly communicate so no their is no shame to saying no and it's no shaming another person to outright say no I do not like X so I will do not want X ever. It's why BDSM takes a lot of trust to even start going into and if you are with someone who exploits that trusts or gas lights that's SA and S abuse and you should leave.

[@SpiderRiderKya]

Holy Moly indeed...

[@leiliabug5240]

I'm excited for this one, it sounds so odd!

[@jacearmor5274]

S1 Remonds me of 50 Shades of Gray. She's so focused on the kink, even if it means stomping on OP's boundaries.

Sam gwein sounds like a play on the word sanguine, which is a blood coloured red ETA: Whoop that update makes sense 😂

[@impishrebel5969]

There's a god named Sanguine in Skyrim who goes by a similar name when he's undercover.

[@havokdr3d535]

Im glad mark said pennywise. I was thinking the same thing, and now i really hope op's name is jorge

[@snake5solid]

Story 1: A couple of beers... a DAY?! OP obviously has issues and she's using this. She knows he's not okay.

Him: I'm this close to getting a stake and letting the sun sort it out. Her: I'm not a vampire. Him: Won't matter to the stake now will it?

[@AntarticSiren]

Underrated comment 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@juliebiggerbear7300]

12:08 that definitely wasn’t just you 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jeaniebee3657]

i rolled my eyes so hard it hurt my eye sockets in the last update on the last story lol

[@ShinTriAce]

....I just hope they the red balloon didn't go with a yellow raincoat, because now I have a really creepy idea what kind of other rp they did🙄

[@aduckofsomesort]

“The rest of us have a learned to ignore him” Why not just not be friends with him?

[@meagancall5005]

"She spent hours one time doing make up, and all I had to do was get a red balloon." THANK GOD Mark mentioned this. I thought we were just going to move on and pretend that was a normal throwaway thing to say. I absolutely need more info (though I think Mark is probably correct about it being IT/Pennywise related). At any rate, despite OP's feelings that his gf is a "good person," this was definitely emotional abuse, and her manipulation was disturbing. I hope she grows up some, and they were able to detangle without any drama (since it sounds like it happened during peak covid times, I'm assuming it's at least a couple years old).

[@jennaleigh6049]

I think you're absolutely right that it was pennywise. He said she spent hours doing makeup

[@GaiaTheNatureWitch]

He watched lotr to learn about vampires 😂

[@somelady3866]

Story 1: So, she thought he was so distressed by the role play that he was having a heart attack, but then when he more clearly coneys that he wants to just dial it back a bit she gets defensive and says he’s shaming her. Yeah she doesn’t care about him. The fact that she told him to get another joint or have another drink when he communicated that he wasn’t enjoying it, displayed her lack of care about his comfort enough- but to see him have a panic attack so severe it looked like he was having a heart attack and then continue to not want to compromise for his comfort says so much. That’s a really scary situation to be in. I’m glad he didn’t just continue to go with it.

[@TheRealVenna]

In story 2, I would have asked my friend why he wants to go to her birthday party, given how much shit he talks about her. He knows they don't get along, so why does he card? Does he just have main character syndrome or something? Does he expect to be invited on a romantic get away as well? Where is the betrayal? I don't get it...

[@catte.]

Oh I'm glad someone told him that human bites can be extremely dangerous, especially if not treated properly. People have landed in the hospital from it. Every bite that breaks skim, even if just slightly, needs to be watched for possible signs of infection
