That's interesting and humorous that your ultimate weapon is to STOP going down the road that is leading to his humiliation. He's really in an untenable position. He has no choice. He loses if he has to do things (or have things done TO him) that he doesn't like and he loses if you end the journey that HE started you on! Funny. One thing I wonder though....... COULD you possibly "stop all this and return to vanilla life."? Is that not perhaps an empty threat and might he not SEE IT as an empty threat??????? If you COULD stop your black-into-white lifestyle (which I doubt) you would be haunted every time you looked in a mirror and saw your tats!Thanx! Yes, I think so too, so much fun dragging him into the ‘new hubby’ stage. And, for all my punishments, if he refuses any stages I have the ultimate sanction, I just hint that I might stop all this and return to vanilla life. His face then and his inner turmoil between not wanting to do things but not wanting me to stop either! Priceless!
