Hi, all. Apologies if this is a bit long...

-I'm 32, American, straight and a switch. New-ish to BDSM, but it is a very important part of my life and self-expression. Demisexual, which means that I need an emotional bond and chemistry before sexual stuff can occur. There also needs to be at least some physical attraction. I'm polyamorous, but am looking for an additional male partner, ideally between the ages of 27-36. I use a wheelchair. I don't mind a long-distance relationship in the least. I would also like a serious relationship. I have bipolar disorder type II, but I manage it with medication. My (Reform) Jewish faith is very important to me and I'm working through the formal conversion process, though I don't mind whatever faith (or lack thereof) my potential partner practices.

Have I covered all the potential dealbreakers? I hope so.

-My vanilla interests are reading (high fantasy and nonfiction history lately), writing, roleplaying video games like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, history, films, psychology, social justice, and shipwrecks. I recently got a vinyl record player so I've been trying to expand my collection. Joy Division, New Order, Skald, The HU and Evanescence are some (but not all) of my favorite bands. I'm a huge fan of A Song of Ice and Fire, Tolkien and Dungeons and Dragons.

-As far as my kinks are concerned**, I am a very gentle switch with a bratty streak, whether I'm the domme or sub. I want my partner to feel safe, cared for and comfortable in whatever dynamic we have and will do everything I can to facilitate that. Pain/humiliation/degradation--physically or otherwise--as of right now is off the table and a very hard limit. My primary kink is pet play, specifically puppy play. I would be happy to be your puppy or your owner. Collaring is something I take very seriously and don't do lightly; for me it is a symbol of loyalty and commitment. I don't like jumping into play right off the bat; if you're looking for something purely sexual, I can't provide that for you.

Anyway, if you've read this far, thank you for giving me a few minutes of your time and please put Valar Morghulis in your message so I know you've read my post. Thanks!
