Under the covers... with Nick Bell

Dear Nick:

For the past several months I have become obsessed with sexual fantasies concerning sado-masochistic domination with an authority figure. I need to confront this person for my own sexual well-being, but in our social setting, the rules of attraction don’t seem to condone this. How do I deal with these incessant fantasies that are interrupting my social and professional life?

Bravely Deprived Submissive Mess

First, if your incessant fantasies are getting in the way of daily functions, I recommend that you take your chances or seek counseling.

No matter how graphic or stimulating your fantasies are, they may be disappointing or even embarassing when acted out. My sometimes dangerous No-Guts-No-Glory attitude towards sexual experimentation insists that you approach this possibly lucky superior ASAP.

Some considerations before your approach: Has your object of lust given you any indication of interest? It doesn’t seem like he or she has, so you may want to find out about their partners, children, mental problems, etc. Depending on the person, they may either be amused and take the attraction as a compliment, turn you down quickly, or slap you around a bit, or so you may hope.

However, you may need to do some research before your declaring your passionate lust for him or her.

If you have never engaged in an act of bondage or discipline involving masochism or sadism, I would not reccomend exploring this with your unsuspecting authority figure. It is quite a strange and sometimes unnerving experience to dominate or be submissive in an act of S&M. I would have to say it’s a rather acquired taste, and there are plenty of people in your area to practice with.

It is always a bad idea to engage in sexual relations with a co-worker. I can safely say that I boldly made this mistake not once, but twice within an eight month span. Both situations ended tragically, resulting in the loss of jobs for both of my co-workers.

Furthermore, there are a set of training rules, toys, techniques, and a glossary of terms you need to become accustomed with before I’d advise a conference with your superior, which can be found online easily.

Bottom line is, be careful what you start. Besides complicating your currently platonic relationship, jumping into a new type of sex act without proper preparation can be a bad idea. So read up, choose well, and good luck!
