How To Talk About Your Kink With Your Partner Without The Awkwardness

Talking about your kinks with your partner can feel daunting, but it doesn't have to be. Have you ever wondered why so many kinksters hide their desires from their partners? The reasons might surprise you. We'll explore the best time to bring up your kink and share a no-pressure approach to kick-start the conversation.

What if your partner doesn’t even want to talk about it? We’ll cover strategies to navigate this tricky situation. And if they’re not open to exploring your kinks, don’t worry—breaking up or suppressing your desires aren't the only options.

Plus, we’ll uncover the real reasons your partner might feel hurt by your revelations and how to prevent that from happening. Tune in for tips and insights on making these conversations smoother and more comfortable.

IN THIS EPISODE

  • Why kinksters hide their kinks from their partners - it's not always what you think.
  • When's the best time to have the kink conversation with your partner?
  • The no-pressure way to initiate the kink conversation with your partner.
  • What to do when your partner doesn't even want to have the kink conversation.
  • What to do when your partner isn't open to exploring your kinks (hint: breaking up and suppressing your kinks aren't the only options).
  • The real reason your partner may be hurt by your revelations - and what to do to prevent it.

3 VALUE BOMBS

  1. Don't just drop the kink talk out of nowhere. Pick a quiet time and place where you won't be interrupted, and give them a heads-up first.
  2. If your kink is pretty wild or you're unsure how your partner will react, start off easy with a general chat. You could say something like, 'So, I came across this article on water sports. What do you think about that?'
  3. Opened up about your kink to your partner after years together and got a terrible reaction? t's not the kink that bothers them—they just feel like they've been living with a stranger. The earlier you share your kinks, the better.
