I consider myself a sub, and I have a wonderful online Master that I have been committed to for some time now. He is undergoing a period of great stress, and asked me, on a whim, if I would be willing to be a Mistress to him, calling him my pet. He also said he didn't think I could do it (I can seldom resist a challenge like that). We spent the day in each other's roles yesterday, after a particularly challenging previous day (he can get very cranky when stressed). We were both grinning the whole time. I got quite a thrill out of his eagerness to please me, and he was so focused on pleasing me that he was able to block out his stress. He enjoyed it so much, in fact, that he respectfully asked me to continue until he has passed the date causing his stress, and I could practically feel him jumping up and down when I agreed - which is quite a feat from over 1000 miles away!
So now we are both questioning what we are, and there is a chance we will determine that we both want to switch. I can definitely say it's been fun so far! But it is also more of a challenge than I expected, as I am not used to giving the tasks... Any tips you can provide would be welcome! We are online only, and he has little freedom at home or work to do anything that would expose our kinks, so finding things he needs to do for me has been difficult (we don't have as much trouble when he is in charge, as I have much more freedom at home)!
