19 People Share When They Realized They Were Into BDSM

I watched the torture scene from the Princess Bride over and over endlessly. There was something I loved so much about how calm Count Rugen was while he was f*cking torturing Westley. Turns out I really love being tortured by mild mannered sadists!

Probably the time I put my hands around a friend’s throat and held her up against a wall, after she and her boyfriend unknowingly triggered my PTSD. She was scared, I liked the feeling. Got aroused staring into her fearful, confused big blue eyes, then I let go, because well two reasons it made me feel better and two I felt guilty obviously. Afterwards she came to me, I explained, she ended her relationship, we quickly became best friends, years later, we are still friends, haha.

For me it was that game kids would play with the string and making different shapes. From then on I loved rope and everything to do with it.

Probably when I leaned against a radiator grate in the girls bathroom in maybe fourth or fifth grade, got burned through my sweater, and absolutely loved how it felt. I played with candle wax by dunking my fingers into the pool of it by the burning wick, and also had a fascination with taking my cross stitch set, threading a needle, and using it to thread through the tips of my fingers to make a web. I’d say all this was before or around being ten years old.
