Boyfriend

[Princess Tati]

Hey, im relatively new to the community but this is more about my boyfriend. Im a switch and so is he but i dont think he really understand ddlg and little space. He calls me cute names and likes to be called daddy but thats about it. Idk when im in my little space or anything of the sort he doesnt act much like a caregiver... maybe its just me.

 

 

 

 

UPDATE:!!!! I told him abt everything i liked in lil space and he says its not weird at all and hes gunna give me hugs!!!!!

Its kind of like if you wanted to have sex and all he would do is kiss you.  You would tell him thats not enough and what you need. Plus where he can go and find out more than what you know (maybe a place like here).

Have you told him what you want/expect from a caregiver and things you'd like him to do when you're in little space? If not, how is he supposed to know? Communication is the only way. As mentioned, it might also be a good idea to direct him to sites where he can learn more about ddlg as a whole.

Thanks a bunch ill try talking to him. Any ideas on how to start the conversation? Im terribly akward when talking about my emotions lol

I get awkward speaking my mind too but I'd start with saying some things he does that you like and then say like "I love the idea of..."

You could ask him what he expects of you as a little or things he likes that you do and then you can tell him the same in return. He might have never really thought about it in detail and this will get him thinking.

I think you need to sit down and explain the meaning of ddlg, I seen some great posted on here and tumblr that can help you explain to a partner about the community. 
Remember to be honest about what you want out of him and ect. 
Good luck!
