Using an RP to make us both comfortable with the possibilities?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey there daddies,  mommies and Cg's! So I've run into circumstances that I would like to run by you guys and get some feedback if it's a good idea or not. Of course, any littles can chime in too please. The more feedback the better. Sorry if this gets longwinded, just bare with me.

So, I have a little that I'm a caregiver to. We've been together for several weeks. It's purely no sexual interaction as I (attempt) to get her through her day. It's been far from perfect. It's entirely online but our schedules often don't mesh well. She goes to school and works part-time on the west coast. I'm a long haul truck driver so I change time zones frequently, but on the east coast our bedtimes and off times work better. We've both had times when our personal lives take over. The worst was probably spring break followed by her going to Coachella with her partner (she has an intimate relationship and I'm married, hence, the agreed upon no sex). And then she was moving some things from her dorm into a new house with her sisters. During that time we had very little contact. We briefly discussed that both of us have been very inconsistent. I made a plan to discuss it more indepth and discuss the possibility of setting aside Sundays as our main Cg/l time. I feel like it works better with my schedule and we can give each other "homework" for the following week. Also, we can still have daily routines and still message or call when possible throughout the week. I don't expect us to be forever, but while we share in this dynamic together I want to do my very best for her. I even read her a bedtime story for the first time a few nights ago. Well, to be fair, I didn't have a book to read her, so I had to make up a story on the fly. Ok so it was a story about us, but it had a happy ending and I think it did us both good!

So, the tough part. Around the same time that I met my little (whom I met on here) I also met a young lady on a sub reddit for dirty pen pals (collaborative erotic storywriting/RPing). She had responded to a prompt I submitted and was very interested. The reddit DM's were being slow and weird so we eventually decided to move over to Discord. I ended up offering her the prompt for a second RP and we have been working in both whenever we can, as well as, spending time together in a general discussion thread. Well, in the RP's I noticed a shift in her whenever the content moved in a more explicit direction. Now, it could be our age gap (she is 20 and I'm 52), but I wondered if it could be something else. I had started a RP narrative on an AI chat app that involved elements of DDlg, but I considered revamping the prompt and offering it to her as a human-to-human RP (while I don't mind the AI chats, I find working with a real person more enjoyable even ig itd not always consistent). I offered her the prompt, as well as, a link to a blog about DDlg/Cgl to give her a better idea of what it was.

I guess I should have mentioned earlier that in the general thread we have really found a connection with each. With no real intention to we've found ourselves in a pretty good routine of "good morning/good night" and regular check-ins (sounds a lot like what a good daddy does right?). While I wasn't asking her for a deeper relationship beyond friends I found myself wondering if there wasn't something deeper there. Saturday afternoon we discussed the new RP off and on and then picked it up again Sun morning. It carried on throughout the day, then, we picked it up again yesterday a little bit. I won't post our chat here because it's a lot (and it's personal), but as the conversation progressed I felt like maybe we were both moving in the direction of entering into the DDlg dynamic together. I could be way off base and reading it all wrong, but I truly hope I'm not! One comment she made in the general chat was that she felt this would be a good fit for us. Now, she could have meant irl, but she could have meant just as an RP.  She is totally new to it (I'm still very much a beginner myself), but admitted she often feels anxious and frustrated that others don't understand her and I got the impression there maybe was some age regression there. Later in the chat she did mention a feeling of 8 being an age she might little at. I could definitely sense some nerves on her part, understandably, so I think I will need to tread lightly with her and allow her to explore as much (or more) on her own as together. I have talked to a middle that I'm friends with here and she made a very good point: the last thing either of us needs is a Pygmalion effect. Ultimately, we agreed that we will RP  the prompt I gave her using our real names and some limited personal information and we can discuss it and our feelings on it in the general thread.

With all that being said I want to make sure I'm doing right by both of these young ladies. I want to continue with the other little and give her a chance to find another daddy that is maybe better suited to her, but still be there for her in the meantime. I also don't want to miss an opportunity with the girl from the RP. It's really hard because I know it's not right to juggle more than one little, it's not fair to them. But it's also not fair to deny myself the opportunity for the relationship I seek. Ultimately, I feel like no matter what I do someone is going to get hurt and I don't want that!

So, I guess I would like feedback on the dual relationship here and whether it's really a bad idea to continue with both? Also, is it OK that I'm introducing ddlg to a potential little via RP sessions that include general discussion of it? Is all of this just really a bad idea or is it something that might work in the short-term? Can a ddlg relationship exist between to people with such a wide age gap? Something I considered in that regard:  while our age gap puts us at a possible disadvantage due to probable lack of common interests, could it also have an advantage in my age giving me more maturity and also having experience as a real-life daddy?

I'm really not sure what to do with this situation and any feedback would be great! I guess if it warrants some angry feedback maybe I deserve it, but to be honest it was not something I intended and I really didn't expect the connection I have with the second young lady for sure! I think we were both pretty surprised by it honestly. And it was never intended to be more than RP sessions that had nothing at all to do with the DDlg community!

All I ask is be honest but fair please!

I think if you want to be fair to everyone involved then both of the women need to have sufficient information to make a decision about their own lives. The decision isn't one that belongs solely to you or to either of them. 

As for the age gap question, it can work but it takes a lot of maturity from all parties involved. My Daddy is 25 and I'm 46 and there are definitely some challenges and discussions that we've needed to have that probably wouldn't have happened if the age gap wasn't there.

Personally, I've found the age gap to be a positive in this dynamic. It's been easier to slip into my role as a Daddy/CG if I have the age, financial stability and experience to back it up. In fact, My 'middle' wife and I are Age-gap (24 years) and this proves true when she chooses to regress or in public.

RP sessions are great for exploring possibilities and fantasies, but you have to communicate that they aren't real. If used properly, they are a great tool for self-discovery. In fact, eminent psychologist Carl Jung pioneered using RP to treat his patients in his day.

If your pen-pal is on a journey of discovering her little roots, allow her to do it organically, just answering her questions as they arise. Be careful not to feed her preconceived ideas, or misleading information she didn't really ask for. You could inadvertently steer her toward a path she may later realize wasn't really for her.

I see no problem with juggling discussions with a few littles....it really depends how in depth the conversations are, how often they occur and if you have time for them. I'm Poly, so I juggle a few already, but they aren't full blown conversations. When they are, I balance and give them the time they need. I'm looking for that perfect match as are you, hoping something will turn into that. I never ghost anyone, because you never know when one you're talking to will blossom into what you're looking for and vice versa. It takes time to know someone like that and people change all the time.

I think you're doing great! Keep it up and I hope you find the perfect one!

This was kind of my thoughts on it! And I don't believe that it's impossible to find commonality outside of DDlg. RPing together kind of proves that haha.

Exactly why I decided to introduce it in that way. Even if we do use our real names and some personal info we both understand it is fantasy, but as she so maturely put it, it's good way to transition between the RP and general chat to share our feelings on it and each other.

Exactly! As my middle friend put it, a Pygmalion effect. I don't want her to change herself to be want I want/need as a Daddy, but I shouldn't change what I'm not comfortable with to be more we she wants/needs. We both have to be able to be ourselves without being overtly influential to each other. In that respect, we agreed that the RP itself will be a very slow burn because it does take time (and communication) whether it's real-life or fantasy!

I totally agree, but I've also found there are those littles who need daddies sole attention and if he is sharing his time with other littles he may not be able to give her what she needs. I think a lot if that really depends on the little. I'm certainly not ghosting anyone, but I do feel it's a conversation I will have to have with both if them for sure!

Thanks for your input!

As I mentioned in another reply, I don't believe it's impossible for us to have any common interests outside DDlg and our RP sessions prove that!

I also know that I'm going to have to have a conversation with both of them sooner or later. That being said, I don't want to jump the gun if my connection to the other woman isn't going as deep as I thought it might. If we end up deciding it's not for us and RPing is as far as it goes. Main thing is I don't want to make something of nothing and make my current little anxious because she can have those moments for sure!

I also I meant to mention, I haven't seen a dynamic where the little is actually older than the daddy, so that's different and very unique. But if it works for the two of you I say go for it!

Oh totally agree with you.

Self-Disclosure: As a Poly, and through self-discovery, I can't handle the 24/7 littles....and generally avoid those, especially a LDR. I just don't have the time in the day to satisfy them and they eventually just ghost me. That's fine, I just hope they find someone that can be there for them 24/7. I just know it's not me.

Personally, I like to get to know the Big before the Little. I'm kind of Sapioromantic & Asexual too, so it's their mind I'm really looking for. A 24/7 little talking in Baby talk just doesn't do it for me without context. It's like seeing an awesome Movie trailer, but then finding out all the best bits of the Movie were in those short 30 seconds. (Hollywood does that a lot :( and some littles do that too)  I'm a 3 Movie Grand Epic (LOTR, HarryPotter, StarWars, Mazerunner, MCU, etc) type of Movie guy!! Gimme all the extras features!! It takes time, but Big space allows time and flexibility to do that.

I hear you! I'm kind of asexual myself, so really being in a dynamic where sex isn't a part of it isn't a problem, buuuut I wouldn't mind necessarily if it was either. It would definitely depend on both persons involved. I don't know if I could do 24/7 little, but I would probably be fine with more than 50% of the time. Again it would depend on both of us. I could definitely see me being in a dynamic with someone younger who dresses little and talks some baby talk even in certain public situations. I also feel I would have to quit driving long haul (which I love doing in spite of the headaches - thanks Smokey and the Bandit! lol). Or we would have to be comfortable enough in our relationship for her to go on the road with me at least part-time. I do absolutely agree with you though that I want (maybe even need) to know the Big too!

Side note: I forgot to add Star Wars to my movies list when I edited my profile. How could I do that!?

Hi hi, I've got some thots~

Definitely make sure both Littles are aware of what's going on. Not only do they have a right to know, but honest communication goes a long way in any kind of romantic relationship.

Age gaps can become problematic, but from what I've seen, most of the problems are societal reactions to these kinds of relationships. So if your partner(s) are okay with it and you're okay with it, and you're both willing to work though anything that might pop up, I wouldn't worry too much about the gap. You being more experienced with life absolutely gives you an upper hand as far as stability goes, and a lot of Littles enjoy that. It's not for everyone for sure, but that doesn't seem to be a problem here. However, I'm attracted to older guys, so maybe take what I just said with a grain of salt.

Introducing ddlg through rp actually sounds like a fun idea! I love to rp myself and hadn't even considered this as an option. However, I absolutely think you should make sure the girl realizes you're doing this. Have a conversation ooc about ddlg and your intentions first, before jumping ahead of yourself. Because again, honesty goes a long way in any kind of romantic relationship. But also, because we're a bdsm community and that demands a certain level of respect by asking for consent. I know I'd be particularly angry, if someone was secretly introducing kink to me through rp, even if they thought it might be something I'd enjoy. 

I hope things go smoothly for you~

I agree I'm gonna have to "sit down" with each of them and have this conversation for sure!

I'm finding age gap seems to be more common at least in this type of dynamic than I expected. Societal reactions are an obvious hurdle, especially 30+ years. Society often sees it as the older person (especially a male) taking advantage of someone much younger without understanding what's really going on and what is involved/required for the relationship to even work. Also, family can be an issue. How might her family percieve it? I have adult children who are older than both women. Do I sit down with them and explain it or do I wait for text or call:  Dad, wth is this!? It's kind of a complicated and tricky thing.

No absolutely. When I brought the RP prompt to her it was never even a discussion about a real-life dynamic. That came after during discussion of the RP when she commented that it could be a good fit for us. And the conversation about bringing it into a real-life situation just kind of progressed from there. We both understood there was a real connection from the start and have progressed to doing somethings that daddy and little do. Even if we aren't doing RP's at that moment we almost always say good morning and good night and have some general conversation at those times. We both check-in regularly throughout the day. Even before discussing any kind of deeper relationship those things just kind of naturally progressed day-by-day. So, when we both vernally acknowledged the connection it was kind of a nice feeling!

I removed the text from this reply as it contained a message conversation from somewhere else and ea inappropriate for me to share regardless of my intent.

Even though you took names out I sincerely hope you asked her permission to post quotes of what was a personal and private conversation. Personally if I found out my partner was directly quoting our conversations on a website without discussing it with me first I'd be quite angry, feel betrayed and my trust with them would absolutely be broken.

You're absolutely right! I just wanted to give some context to what I was saying.But you're right and I should delete it!

Yeaahhh.....She's right. Can you delete the conversations? Thanks.

I think I noticed a few signs that you were concerning to me.

It seemed here that you were leading her along with the whole "Lifestyle thing" and even suggesting she be the protagonist. Her urge to step away from stressful situations is actually normal and there are ways to do it without necessarily resorting to DDLg dynamics. I kind of feel you should have explored other options as well before this one.

There also seems to be a rush for you to throw out roles and ideas, and she tends to repeat what you're saying a few times, like an echo. I think that's your red flag when you get that full agreement to ideas you suggest without any disagreement or discussion.

You also seem very eager to please, saying what she wants to hear. She politely says "you don't have to", or "You're sweet", instead of "Thank you!"  Usually I interpret this as a subtle way of saying "you really shouldn't but I'm not gonna disagree with you". It's a sign of using Power exchange to get what you want and can be misused or abused if you don't see what's happening. Full consent and disclosure is best. Confirm with "Are you sure it's Ok? I understand if you're uncomfortable with it." Allow her the freedom to express her uncertainties.

It looks like you're a very caring and self-aware daddy, and we don't know her full situation, but with a little tweak here and there, you can extinguish any doubts and enjoy yourselves.

You are 💯 correct! But you also pointed out things that I was somewhat aware of what was happening. My intent in the reply was not bad but my forethought in sharing the message content was inappropriate. 

I didn't see how to delete it altogether but I deleted the message content

Well, we will see, but it may already be too late. I left her a couple of messages with no response. I understand she has school and might have a job too so I gotta give her time. Normally she would have responded already so anxiety is getting the better of me at the moment. Just trying to wait patiently and see if she responds later this evening!

Sorry for poofing mid conversation, but irl stepped in the way.

I would call your actual children. Tell them that you have something to talk about, that you feel is important about your personal life. Then let them decide if they want to meet up irl or wait if they have further questions.

In the conversation, be very clear to explain that you're not replacing them by having this sort of dynamic. Explain what bdsm is, and that it's not exactly like what media/society says it is. If they get upset, give them the chance to process this by themselves, but with the ability to reach back out to you once they've decided they want to talk more.

This is how I would approach such a delicate conversation, but I also don't have kids. What I do have, is trauma from neglect,  such as being left out of things that (in)directly affected me. Don't be that type of parent, please.

Also, on a side note, I would like to give a gentle reminder. This website is easily found on Google and accessible by the general public. 

I didn't see what had been posted, but I wouldn't have left any comments on it if I had anyways, as the info hadn't been given freely by the other person. But I'm glad to see that you've removed it. That shows the ability to recognize your faults and then take responsibility. It shows me that you're attempting to recognize what being a good Daddy is. Nobody is perfect, but Daddies should always do the right thing, to the best of their abilities.

Well, she hasn't blocked or ignored me on Discord so that's something. But she has remained invisible to me most of the day which is unusual, especially since this is about the time of day we start most our chat and RP sessions. I also left a couple messages and she usually pops in and responds eventually, but so far nothing. I will wait awhile longer because I know we all have lives, but if I haven't heard from her by tomorrow morning I will take it she ghosted. And I probably won't sleep tonight from the anxiety lol. But if that's the case I only have myself to blame!

From my experience; I would give more than 24 hours before assuming I was ghosted, even if there was a routine or I saw them online elsewhere. People get distracted by other things or people. The only way I'd assume ive been ghosted in 24 hours, was if I saw them shit posting one liners filled with half-baked meme nonsense. And then technically speaking, you guys weren't even a romantic couple, right? Sometimes people need space, but don't take it personally too soon.

And then technically speaking, you guys weren't even a romantic couple, right? Sometimes people need space, but don't take it personally too soon.

Trying not to lol. I'm terrible about beating myself over things that often are nothing.

I feel that. It can be hard sometimes, particularly if you suffer from anxiety or a wide range of other mental health issues.

So we just got off Discord. She had to stay at school until after 9 which explains why she hadn't been on. Good news is she assured me I had not pushed any boundaries and everything is a-ok! We were both sleepy and I have to be up at 4 am, but we agreed it would be nice to go on a Discord call, when she is comfortable and feels like she can. So yeah. Feelimg pretty elated right now.

I also talked to the other little about it and we will adjust to accommodate for both our needs!

Be careful not to feed her preconceived ideas, or misleading information she didn't really ask for. You could inadvertently steer her toward a path she may later realize wasn't really for her.

This is words I need but had hard times in finding. I can steals pleez?

Absolutely. Like they say, Imitation is the highest form of flattery. I'm flattered. :) 

Good luck with your conversation!
