After a year, my current sugar relationship is ending. This isn't the first long-term sugar relationship I've had and I'm aware that these things have a shelf life.

But this ending is different. It's different because I am so happy for the person my SB has grown into this last year.

A year ago, her progress toward her graduate degree was stalling. She was in a weird vanilla relationship with a married guy. She was dabbling in hard drugs and sex work.

None of that mattered to me, because I was looking for a pretty simple, no-strings-attached, situationship. She has a great energy about her, and the sex was out of this world.

But, after enough post-coital conversations, people catch feelings. I fell for her, and she fell for me. And as she told me more about herself, the little white knight on my shoulder told me to step up my allowance. So I started offering more and more and more. After about six months, I was covering all her expenses. She stopped working, resumed a full load of classes, and invested time and energy into herself.

And she grew. She healed. It was beautiful. She became a better version of herself. And I loved knowing that I supported her in her journey.

We had a great sugar relationship. We had fun, we went on trips. We drank bottles and bottles and bottles of the best wines. We fell in love.

And we are still in love. But, she's "graduated" from where she was. She's stabilized her finances. She's finished up her degree and has a good job lined up afterwards (thanks to the introductions I helped her make). She's put the drugs and sex work behind her.

It wasn't easy for her. It wasn't a straight path. I'm proud of her.

She's ready to move into a more vanilla lifestyle. We will have a few more dates, exchange Christmas presents, and then blow out the fire of this intense and smokey sugary fling.

I've never ended a relationship on such a high note before. It's different and absurd and wonderful to have this kind of send-off.

So, after I release this prized catch, I'll enjoy these next few dates, reminecse for a while, and then wade back into these super shallow waters of the bowl.

Thanks for reading my bittersweet rave guys.
