It sounds to me like you have a wonderful relationship, and you’re doing it right! It’s hard to say how others practice this lifestyle, but I believe it is very much a yin and yang kind of thing where both partners’ very different needs are met. My husband – outside of our relationship – is anything but a beta male. He’s a gladiator who’s at the pinnacle of his profession. The “forced” or “coerced” aspect for us is mostly role play. He can’t give himself permission to be submissive without knowing that’s what I desire from him. Really – the coercion is as much for him as it is for me. And while I do enjoy pushing/testing his limits, I would never go to something that would threaten our relationship or his well-being. Like any good marriage, our relationship is so much more than just the sex. I also think cuckolding is a relationship magnifier: if your love is solid, your lines of communication are wide open, you both can solve problems and compromise – cuckolding will enhance that. Likewise, if the relationship is on the rocks, cuckolding will just speed the trip to its undoing.
