Truth be told i've been very weary about asking for help here. However, i guess i'm not sure what else to do at this point. 9 months ago i met a man through CM, and we started seeing each other. Because of some "traumatic" things that had happened shortly before we met, He was told by my friends that we would not be permitted to have sex. That seemed to be okay with Him. Actually, one of the things that He continued to tell me in the beginning was He wasn't going to have sex with me until i was convinced i'm a good person and i can see my worth...Okay, well we've accomplished that and still no sex... i could live without the sex, trust me...... The thing is however, there's also no D/s and no M/s. We've been talking about it a lot lately, and He wants this as much (if not more) than i do, but He's just not able to do it. We've talked about Him going to counseling, but frankly we don't live in that large of an area where You could actually say to someone, "i want to beat my girlfriend (SLAVE!!) and i can't seem to do it". So, He hasn't done that.
Being on the outside of His issues i see and understand where they are coming from. He's had some past negative experiences with sex and relationships......It's almost as if He was broken during His last relationship and can't find a way to put Himself back together.
Has anyone here ever been through something similar? Does anyone have any encouragement?
Thanks,
Kali

Kali, no disrespect, but are you really sure you want to invest (what sounds like alot of)
time in putting someone back together that you didnt break?
im sure he has alot of awsome qualities to get your attention in the first place,
but what will you get back for your investment?
take it from one who knows, its alot of work to help someone in this way.
get to me on the other side if you wanna talk more, i hope you make the
best decision for you :)

Castles start with one stone.

Ask him to swat you on the butt.  Just once.  Then maybe once more.

Work your way up from that.  The more he sees he can interact with you in a D/s fashion, the more likely he is to trust that he won't break you in the process.

I agree with Stephann on this one. Start slow and try to build on that.

Kali,

We have ALL been in that sitation in one way or another.

First off, most kink friendly counselors do lots and lots of work over the phone, most are in the big cities and so they are are used to doing it by phone to people who live in the provinces.

http://www.ncsfreedom.org/index.php?option=com_keyword&id=270

He was patient with you, you owe him a bit of patience so ignore the "dump him now crowd".  However, realize that there may come a time when you DO run out of patience and prepare yourself but I wouldn't set an ultimatime, just be aware of the possibility.  Set some requirements to continue and it sounds like counseling would be a good one. 

I wish you the best of  luck and bsb as well as my inbox are always open to you.

Looks to me like he hasn't fully gone through the grieving and healing process after his last relationship.

Frankly until he does I don't think he can give you what you both want.

Yeah it may take therapy but the therapy will have next to nothing to do with BDSM and almost everything to do with him processing the past that hurt him. Any decent therapist can help with that but he should still be selective. He should make appointments to meet with several therapists and interview them to find a good fit. Yes, he will need to pay for their time and he will also need to be as fully honest about what he wants to deal with -- a past relationship -- as he can be so he can gauge the fit between he and therapist.

This could be a long process by the way.

I agree totally with this.
A therpaist is a therpaist and will take certain approaches....cognitive-behavourial, social learning, analytical, person-centred etc and usually these days an eccelctic approach consisting of more than one.
A 'kink' related therapist is rare, as 'kink' just becomes yet another topic to deal with (like addiction, weight loss, self-confidence). In other words it isn't the content of the client's issue which determines the councelling/therapist's position.
his kink related past gurt by the way, is on my personal opinion, just the 'seen' content of something bqased on deeper by-gone unresolved issues. Whilst I know for ME what my brokenness at the moment is, (and it is a long-gone event).....it involves at least two processes running together: his willingness to unravel the past and his willingness to trust not only the therapeutic process but to trust you in being the one to 'act it out' with.
I'm not saying that kink is based on past trauma. far from it. But past trauma will out........if he is naturally dominant then because he is tsuck right now I would think that his submissive side is uppertmost. And it sounds, forgive me if I am wrong, this sounds like two submissives in a relationship. No one wants to make the first move. If you ask him to give you that first smack (as has been suggested) he may prcess it as you attempting to top him.
It is all in the process by the way. Therapy may accelerate the process but it's still going to be a long haul by the sounds of things.
Unless you want to be his therapist. We all are both victims and healers I believe. Given enough time we all heal eventually......eventually as time runs out we realise that.
My heart to you xx

He doesn't have to say that he wants to beat and humiliate his partner. He just has to say that he isn't capable of engaging in any kind of intimacy and he wants to change that. He wants to have sex, he wants to do things that make you feel good and fulfilled, he wants to open up fully. Most of the therapy will be focused on why he picked partners who are bad for him, how to end the guilt he carries over not handling the situation better, how can he be a man and have been abused by his partner when men are bigger, tougher, etc. Vanilla relationship stuff.

This isn't a BDSM issue because he's not asking how to handle a flogger better. It's a block inside of him preventing him from moving on and therapy will be on how to move forward. And he shouldn't have any insurance trouble because of the sexuality issue.

i had a bad experience when i was really young that affected me for literally years without my knowing it. It was by talking with a trusted counselor about something else completely unrelated to my problems and past, that i realized what was going on. That opened the door to some badly needed healing i didn't even know i needed. So my opinion is he should go see a therapist, and talk about other things. Build trust with that person, and use "vanilla" terms when it comes to his intimacy issues. Sometimes just talking helps... and so does having someone who cares beside you as you're healing.

Devil's Advocate here...and it may sound harsh but not intended that way.  He's a good man, correct?  You like him a lot, correct?  He's a good friend, correct?  But there is no sex, no intimacy, no D/s, no "deep" relationship of that sort.  Sounds like it depends on whay YOU want out of the relationship.  He can still be a good friend but you may need to search for another that can actually give you the other important parts of a relationship.  And yes, I feel that sex, intimacy and D/s are important if it's going to be a D/s relationship.

There are many kinds of intimacy, deep intimacy, which have nothing to do with sex or D/s. I didn't see anything indicating that they are all missing.

I think Michael gave some valuable advice.

I agree with TammyJo.  How long has it been since the last relationship?  Why did friends tell him about no sex and not you?  If you really feel this has potential, then go ahead and see it through with the counseling and taking it step by step.

kali...I admire your courage and your patience.  That said, I have posted on here before that if I am to be a submissive's dominant, then I am her dominant...taking care of her, living up to whatever responsibilities I have committed to, not abusing her, etc., etc..  I have also stated that I am not a submissive's therapist...nor would I want her to be mine.  You can love him and support him and give him props but he has to choose a course...either therapy or not.  It seems that you have been going through this for quite awhile but there again, problems that took years to build don't go away right away.  I won't tell you to throw things away...having been on the receiving end of being tossed without any time at all being given over to fixing what was going on, I can assure you that it doesn't help much.  However...

Just as in the case of a topic brought to a thread by Owner4SexSlave(whiplash) awhile back, emotional/sexual/behavioral problems can become a problem easily sunk into, much as the alcoholism he spoke of.  Don't speak to him of ultimatums but speak to yourself of how much longer you owe a relationship that has not...in most of the ways usually seen in a loving D/s OR vanilla relationship...really gotten off the ground yet.  You are not the therapist and...given that he wants a D/s relationship but with him as the dominant...you are not the leader. You have some questions to ask yourself and some preparation for helping him and, if need be ultimately...leaving him.

Tammyjo: "Looks to me like he hasn't fully gone through the grieving and healing process after his last relationship."

Could be. Grieving takes time, and it's not related to how long a relationship lasted.

Listen to Domah and the others, too.

Me, I think if you have a need to do Codependency, you might want to take a week and go to Cancun, by yourself, and think about what YOU need.
