Ddlg or not? New little here and I need advice/help pwetty pwease!!

[~SensitivePrincess~]

So my boyfriend and I have been in a relationship for 7 months. Before him, I've known about Ddlg and that I'm most definitely a little. I'm extremely submissive, not dominant one bit and when we first started dating I sort of hinted at things to try and figure out if he was dominant or not. I had him take the bdsm test and he was a switch which he later on agreed with, but recently that hasn't been the case. During sex once, he asked me to call him daddy and from then on it's sort of a name I call him in general which he says he loves. I've talked in a baby voice and used little words and have my stuffies with me in front of him before, being in my "little space" which he hasn't figured out has been my little space yet. He's into spanking, hair pulling, light bondage, and outside of sex is even dominating a little bit. I've brought up to him how "my friend said we're being a ddlg couple" (trying to get his input on it) even though we don't have rules or anything like that, and he said that we are a little bit. What I need advice on is how to bring it up to him and tell him I'm a little and how to make this relationship labeled completely as a "ddlg relationship". I enjoy spanking punishments and having small rules as well which he has spanked me before and said he was into as well, so how could I bring that into the relationship slowly to see his input without saying it bluntly straightforward and have him try it out without him basically realizing It? Is our relationship ddlg or not? I told him I like being the one taken care of and I'm submissive, what are ways to act as a little to have him realize I am one? Is he dominant and will he be able to stay as a caregiver only or what? I don't want to bring these things up straightforward and to the point. I want to slowly have them involved in the relationship for him to try it and see his input before it goes full fledged so I know without having to really ask him directly. Sorry if this is scattered, in just confused what our relationship is and how to invve ddlg more into it without doing it straightforward and have him reject it.

This can definitely be a hard topic to bring up to someone you care about but from what you've mentioned it seems like you're on a good path:) my suggestion would be to take it slow, maybe plan a nice night in together and bring it up then. Make sure he knows how important it is to you and talk it out with him and find out everything he's thinking. Also make sure you give him time to think about it and process it if he needs it. I wish you all the luck in the world though:) communication is key!

Thank you for the response it helped a lot! since then, I've sort of dropped big hints and he told me that I do act like s little, and he refers to himself as daddy with me now he's told me that he likes me being little, and we are going to build a bear in a few days now!! I'm so happy

Hints only work on men if you spell them out, in as few words as possible, and preferably in words of two syllables or less.

Haha honestly. But since then, he had randomly brought it up to me and we decided to officially have our relationship labelled ddlg. He even gave me a few simple rules and a bedtime and now we are fully open with this and talk about it allll the time I'm so glad we're past the awkward declaring and confusion stage, he knows my little side sooo well
