"Well my gf and I met through Fab, so our relationship started through kinks! We took a step back when Covid started, but now we're stronger than ever and exploring new kinks together. I love that we both have pretty much no limits and will try anything together, but she does tell me I've been going soft on her with the hard bdsm since we both said the L word! "Sooo cute 
All of my partners are from fab so I know they are kink tolerant already | |||

"It’s our connection, bond and fact that we both compliment each other that allows us to enjoy the non Vanilla lifestyle with including others. The kink and need to explore is what brought us together and it was apparent very quickly just how we both had found who and what we were looking for. Just keeps getting better
You never know who is about to walk into your life so yes kink is a very important factor

"I've been on the scene for 20 years, so I've done/seen everything that I want to, and there's not any of it that I wouldn't walk away from for the right person. It's fun, including the partner swapping side, but I could live without it as long as the sex in the relationship was fun and plentiful. " Thats a good point | |||

"It's an important part of who I am, but all relationships have their compromises. I think I would have to have a relationship with someone who was kink minded.

"To me, the kinks are part of a good sex life. I can't get into vanilla sex in the same way, just feel like I'm going through the motions. And I seriously wonder if I could manage monogamy again!" Thats an interesting question to ask yourself
Thats my ultimate never going to give up, I realised I was poly when I was 18 so thats a part of my being. The other kinks have evolved over my fab life so I guess I'm questioning how important are they to me really | |||

"Being in a relationship where my partner loves kink is very important to me. The additional level of connection afforded by kinky play is essential to my being. Also, I find a love of kink correlates well with an extra openness to exploring in all aspects of life. I would leave the relationship if the other person was not interested in kinky exploration—-have already left one relationship for that very reason. " | |||

"How important is your kink to you in relation to a potential new real life date/relationship If they were not happy to indulge would you walk away from them or your kinks " What you mean by our kinks? If you mean this non-monogamous lifestyle, then yes I (Luke) would give it up like a shot for Hannah if that's what she wanted. As for my personal kink, it's something no partner of mine has ever objected to in private (except my ex-wife - grr). It's not something people outside a relationship of mine have been interested in very often anyway, but I have been able to indulge with a group in the past. Group opportunities don't come along very often like they used to so it wouldn't be a great loss. | |||

"Kink allowed me to rediscover who I am, after years of trying to fit in and be “normal”. I do not think I could give it up for anyone, but its all about communication, negotiation and consent after all." I think the problem lies with how vanilla people in general view kink and kink relationships. A lot of vanilla people see kink (a word that covers a world of different activities and circumstances) as role-playing or something aligned to having sex. This is why many in the BDSM community draw a line between themselves and the swinging community. For many who describe themselves as "kinky" is a state of being and a part of themselves and not necessarily sexual. It may be something that needs to be discovered or uncovered but once the kink comes to the surface, it is finding a missing part of a puzzle. A kink relationship is like any other relationship, a good relationship is where you both get on with each other but both can express themselves. Either together or in a spirit of understanding where one partner let's the other explore that part of themselves. So for me it would be essential. | |||
