My S.O. just issued me an order

Dear Reader,

Well,well, well.

I just had breakfast – a spicy mixture of “dried rice” along with peanuts – and it was awesome. For those not in the know, it’s some sort of South Indian (as in sub-continent) delicacy.

While I’ve never ever been to Southern India (except for Goa, on holiday), it remains one of the unvisited places on my “to go” list. I’m not sure as yet when I’ll end up there, but we’ll see!

Anyway, before this sumptious breakfast my S.O. asked (or should I say told, hehe) me to fold the blankets.

“Fold the blankets!”

It wasn’t said as an “order” – in that “tone” – but the point was clear regardless.

She’s assigned this as one of my household chores – in a “vanilla” sort of way if that makes any sense, and while I don’t generally mind, or balk at unloading the dishwasher, hanging the laundry etc – for whatever reason folding blankets is something I’m not that into, hehe.

And I never end up doing it on time, hence the reminders, and …

Anyway, all good. Did that, ate, and then as I was washing my hands …

“I’m going to assign you to massage duty from now on!”

“Ok, but …I thought you didn’t enjoy the massage last night?”

Alright, so you’re probably wondering what I’m talking about? Ok, I’ll take a step back.

So for the loyal Mike Watson readers out there, it should come as NO surprise that China and Chinese massages are something I’m very (and intimately) familiar with.

The Chinese style of massage is very unlike “Western” massage in that while it WORKS (for sure!) – it can sometimes feel like hell when it’s being administered, as opposed to a lot of Western massages that feel good during the massage, but don’t really do a heck of a lot in terms of correcting meridian imbalance, re-aligining muscles/tendons etc.

And my S.O, FWIW has been afflicted with a case of mid back “knots” for a while now, hence the “request” – or the order, should I say, hehe.

While I was kneading it out last night she was squealing in agony.

Hey, Chinese massages are like that! Ask Empress Cody – or Sophia Bai – or the indomitable, and lovely Madam Krystal (her of the “Teaching Assistant” series), and they’ll all nod their heads up and down in agreement (for once!).

Chinese massages consist of pummeling, kneading, twisting, poking, prodding and generally doing everything you can to “wring” the tension out of the muscle and re-align it – and though it can feel like hell while it’s being done, it feels the exact opposite afterwards.

As my S.O. told me “I almost fell asleep after that! You’ll do this daily for me from now on in”.

Now, note that all this is in a vanilla context – or … is it?

We’ve been discussing – albeit overtly – my preference for staying chaste to the extreme while she’s (occasionally) of the opposite bent of mind.

This sort of thing used to cause massive fights between us, but no longer.

The reasons are varied, and too many to get into this email. Vibes play a part, as do other things – and no – no cuckolding as yet in THIS relationship!

We’ll see how that goes. In the meantime though, remember that massage is one of the best “tools” in your “submissive handy man’s bag” – especially if you’re looking to “speed things up a bit”.

I’ve never known a woman that doesn’t enjoy a decent foot massage – or a back massage, for that matter.

And if you incorporate this into your regular life – WITHOUT bringing any non vanilla aspects of it – you’ll be surprised at how soon non-vanilla aspects end up entering into it anyway!

Ah, the wonderful world of fetish – – and the mind as well. Where would we all be without both the above!?

Alright, so that’s it for now. I’ll be back again later!

Best,

Mike Watson

P.S. – I’ll keep you posted on how it progresses with my S.O as well! Also, and in the meantime, if you’re looking for professional and ongoing advice on how to manage/incorporate kink into your relationship — shoot me an email, and we’ll see what we can do!
