Just a girl in her 30’s who likes to be a silly little princess brat! Engaged💍❤️. Domestic discipline and ddlg are interests. Spanking is my love language!
manhandle me under your arm to spank me without a warning, send me to wait for you in my room, lecture me while i’m over your lap, excuse yourself from gatherings so you can go “take care” of me, make me feel like a kid who can’t behave. i think that would fix me maybe
spanking type: when you haven't done anything wrong but your brain is doing that thing and you both know the fastest reset is ten minutes over her knee and a good cry.
Like many things in life, you sometimes have these grand plans that you want to accomplish, but for one reason or another they get pushed to the wayside. I have wanted to share a bit more about my relationship with MVB for awhile, and my trip to Georgia reinvigorated that, as I had the opportunity to chat with so many wonderful people. Many who wanted to know more about MVB, our relationship, how we make it work… all very valid topics and it reminded me that I wanted to do this little write up.
TL;DR – It is possible to have a happy, fulfilling, and successful relationship with someone who doesn’t share the spanko gene with you (or whatever your kink is). This is just my story and I am hoping it inspires others to look “outside the box” for their partner.
How We Met/Finding Someone Who is Accepting
MVB and I met on a vanilla dating app. The way I handled online dating was if I wasn’t turned off within the first few messages (because that happened more often than not lol), I had a little write up I would send out to potential matches. I don’t have the write up anymore, but it essentially laid out my interest with spanking. Kept it light but made it clear it was a part of who I was and would be intertwined in my life in some way, and that I wanted my parter to be open to it. I also highlighted some other interests, but spanking was the main one.
I’m so glad I did this though, because guys who weren’t interested knew ahead of time, it wasn’t like I had to hold onto this “secret” and spring it on them later. Guys who were interested or open to it, we kept the conversation going. When I shared this with MVB, he was appreciative of me being so open and said while he didn’t have any spanking experience, he was open to it all and willing to learn more, while still getting to know each other.
With MVB there was this quiet sense of relief in sharing this part of me with him. My “big secret” was out in the open. I didn’t have to navigate when or how to bring it up, and it let us focus on getting to know each other without feeling like I was hiding something. I highly recommend bringing up your interests early, there’s no point in getting attached to someone who is turned off by something that is so important to you.
Keeping Your Standards
Spanking and the lifestyle are obviously important to me, but they aren’t the only qualities I looked for in a partner. There are many other parts of my life that matter to me: family, career, finances… I knew I was looking for a partner who fit into more than just “spanking”.
I have dated guys who we fit so well together as spankos, but in most other areas, our connections just weren’t there. There were certainly times that I considered lowering my standards in other areas because the spanking chemistry was just that good.
This is something I can’t stress enough, just because you find someone who fits into your spanking world (or whatever it is your kink is), it doesn’t necessarily make them a good life partner. I feel as spankos it’s hard enough for us to find partners who compliment our spanking interests, but it is almost impossible to find someone who fits there AND the other aspects of your life.
I quickly realized as I was getting to know MVB that we shared a lot of similarities with family, friends, life goals, etc. Knowing he was open to my spanking interest AND had so many qualities that mattered to me, I knew I had found someone special.
Helping Someone Understand
This might just be something that worked well for MVB, but one thing I tried to do to help him understand this world I live in was to try and make connections to his own life/interests.
MVB is really into baseball. He plays baseball, watches baseball, goes to games… that is his preferred activity of choice. He finds it fun, a way to escape, and a way to connect with others. It’s a passion of his. Knowing this, I tried to help him understand spanking through baseball.
I am not a natural born baseball fan. While I enjoy going to games with him, or watching it on tv, I don’t understand it the way he does, nor do I understand it the way his friends do. They are all big baseball fans and have been for the majority of their lives. There are nuances and mannerisms to baseball that I will probably never pick up on.
That’s how I tried to explain spanking to him. It’s my outlet, something that brings me joy and fulfills me in a meaningful way. The biggest difference was that my activity involves my bare bottom, whereas baseball no one really takes their clothes off lol. There are times that he goes off with his buddies to watch a game and for us, my version of that is skipping off to a spanking party.
While we don’t come to the relationship with the exact same interests, we both recognize the passion we have for something we love, and were willing to learn about what is important to the other person.
My Other Interests
If spanking was my one and only interest, I think it would be incredibly difficult to be in a relationship with someone who didn’t share that. I do have other interests that MVB fits much easier into because they are more natural to him. MVB is 100% a Daddy. He is caring, nurturing, and supportive. He’s called me his “little girl” and “little one” since we became official. While he had never heard of DDlg before I told him what it was, he is 100% a Daddy in that way. It’s one of my favorite things about him. I am his little girl who gets tucked in every night and snuggled up every day.
I also am very into the traditional gender roles, in the sense of: the man takes care of the house, finances, finalizing decisions, is the protector. While the woman takes care of the home, cooks and cleans, it taken care of and protected. This is something we fell into naturally and has been a really wonderful aspect of our relationship. While we certainly aren’t rigid within these roles, for the most part that is how we live, and it just fills my cup to the brim. I am a happy little girl at home, cooking and cleaning for my Daddy, who takes care of us, our home, and our future.
All that is to say, MVB naturally fits into other interests that I have, so for him to not be a “natural spanko”, it doesn’t affect me as much as it might if that was my only interest. It’s also extremely helpful that he is not only open to learning about the lifestyle, but he is comfortable with me going to events and parties, and to be around people who share my interest.
Dating: Spanko vs. Vanilla
In the last decade I have dated people from both sides. My first ever boyfriend was vanilla, I jumped right in feet first because it was fun and exciting and I was too naïve and inexperienced at the time to understand how important my needs were. When I brought up spanking to him, I remember him saying, “I don’t hit women”. That relationship didn’t last long after that lol.
I have also dated guys who were spankos to some degree, and while the spanking chemistry was really wonderful, almost everything else was a challenge. I struggled in those relationships because it was just so wild to me how I could be so compatible with someone who knew the in’s and out’s of spanking me, but ended up not at all aligning in other important areas of my life. I knew after my last relationship I needed my person to be able to dip into both: spanking/my other interests and my vanilla life.
On some level I realized I needed my partner to be open to DDlg, as that is something I naturally fall into more often than not. Even in the spanko world, that kink is not very common, at least from the people I’ve played with.
I said this earlier, but I really do feel like this is important. When you are in the thick of what life throws at you: births, deaths, celebrations, sickness… you want someone by your side who will support you in ALL of that. I had a health scare last year and ended up in the hospital, I can promise you that spanking, the lifestyle, DDlg… none of those things crossed my mind. What did cross my mind was wanting the support of my partner with me, and MVB did exactly that. Don’t get so hung up on your kink interests that you overlook something so important.
How We Manage Things Now
In the beginning of our relationship, pretty much for the first year, I took a huge step back from the lifestyle. On our 3rd date I had to tell MVB that I had tickets to go to Georgia for a spanking party, that I had purchased before I met him (GASP 2024). He was open to that for me, wanted me to have a good time, and said as long as I felt safe and communicated with him, he thought of it like a “girls trip” for me lol. But other than that trip to Georgia, I really spent our first year as “us”. I wanted to really pour myself into this relationship, as I could tell early on it was something special. I also wanted us to figure out “our normal”, which would include spanking, and felt that it was important to build that with just the two of us.
It took us a lot of practice, but we are in a place in our play now where it’s exactly what I need most of the time. I am not a hard player by comparison, and really at the end of a long day, I just need to be taken over a knee and given a nice long spanking on my bare little bottom. MVB is quite good at that, but in addition I get snuggled, reminded that I’m his little girl that he takes care of, and then he tucks me into bed, every night.
For the small bit of my spanko self that needs just a bit more, MVB is comfortable with me going to events (I just went to GASP 2026 and it was AWESOME!), going to parties like Cheeky or Blushing Moon, ones that are just a few hours long, and also doing one on one sessions as they come up. Within these spaces I can explore and have a bit of a harder session, and I have a supportive partner who is eagerly waiting for me to send pictures, as he is very into seeing my spanked little bottom. I think this is somewhat unique from a vanilla partner, but we also spent A LOT of time together as "us" in the first year, and I think that helped to build security within our relationship to help him feel comfortable.
I also want to be very clear, our relationship is not perfect. There are times that I have felt frustrated, especially as we worked through a lot of “firsts” with spanking and the lifestyle. But it is through those frustrations that we have learned to communicate needs and find commonality. At the end of the day, this man wants me to be happy. He loves me so much that me going off to plop over a few laps doesn’t faze him in the least. I come home to him and our life we are building together.
Let’s Wrap This Up
Some might look at our relationship and think it’s a version of “settling”. I certainly don’t feel that way. Settling for me would be ignoring my needs or pushing them to the wayside, and thankfully that is not my reality. I am in a relationship where I feel supported, valued, and understood in ways that make me feel whole. While this relationship isn’t what I had pictured myself being in, it doesn’t mean I am not happy and fulfilled in so many ways.
I wanted to write this entry for a few reasons, but my biggest message is this: don’t be afraid to date someone who may not initially match your kinky interests. It can feel isolating at times when you see spanko couples (or whatever your kink is) who found each other, but I promise you, they too go through struggles just like everyone else. While their struggles may not be in spanking chemistry, they too have to work through areas where they don’t have common ground. Sometimes the “right person” isn’t the one who fits perfectly into every part of your world, but is the one who respects it, supports it, and makes space for it. The right person will care about what is important to you, and that matters so much more than having everything in common. I am forever grateful I took a leap of faith with this man, and I hope this inspires you to take a chance for yourself.
