Telling my partner.

[InsertNameHere]

So, hi there all. 
It's been a while! 

I'd been considering telling my partner of a year now about what turns me on. Last night after far too much gin - I bit the bullet and confessed my fetish to him. Prior to telling him everything, we'd 'done the deed' - and were cuddling. Somehow we got onto the topic of fetishes and after a lot of coaxing he confessed his to me. I won't specifically say what it is as I don't believe that's fair, but he was terrified of telling me and that I'd leave him or some crap. I think I laughed. Because I completely understand that feeling and found it strange he thought I would judge him for something beyond his control - but I suppose that's how most people in this community feel too when they're faced with telling someone they love.

Anywho, then it was my turn. He cuddled me tight and I refused to look at him when I told him. I couldn't look him in the eye. Eventually I confessed all. My last experience of telling a partner didn't go well, but this was so different. He laughed, like full on belly laughed at me. And hugged me and kissed my forehead. He didn't believe that it was a real thing, and didn't get how I'd got so worked up over such a "harmless fetish". To be perfectly honest, he was amazing. But more than that - he was interested.

He looked around on the forum, respecting my privacy not to look for me. He showed me videos he watched that turned him on, and we told each other what parts of our respective fetishes we preferred. Although still awkward and new, talking about it and being open got us both in the mood. He even tried to sneeze for me during using rolled up tissues. He kept asking me to show him what to do, and to try to make him sneeze. He tried it on me to get the hang of it and made me sneeze. 

So there you have it.
My confession went better than I thought it could have, probably more so because I discovered things about him that he'd never told a soul as well. And it has brought us both closer together.

He sounds like a truly understanding and open-minded individual! I'm so happy to hear that this went well for you both - the intimacy you feel when sharing something this personal, and the love and acceptance that floods in when your partner loves things because you love them, is extremely special. The fact that he confessed a fetish to you as well, it's a great sign of mutual trust.

Thanks for sharing this uplifting story! I hope you both have many fun times ahead of you, sharing, indulging, and learning about your respective fetishes, and becoming all the more intimate for it!
