Ok as you requested Meatpie,
The conversation under "The Day You Almost Died" may not be of general interest but I would like to share some of my other history with you. I have posted a lot of my personal kinks elsewhere in the forum. As you should know by now my kink is fire and burning, that predates that accident by a long time, the earliest I can trace it to in Grade One in Catholic School, but it might even be earlier.
The accident I mentioned was a life turner, going from an athlete to a near cripple is not easy. I recovered fairly well but one of the things that goes with a serious brain injury is depression. I have had had a hard time dealing with relationships, dealing with someone with chronic pain and bouts of depression isn't easy. I've had several special friends, all women, and never felt sexual attraction to a man.
After the accident I made the connection with the woman I mentioned. I had known her since we were kids, and guess what, we went to the same Catholic School. She had heard about my fiery torture at the hands of my "friends", and she had her own fiery fantasies. I was a near cripple but it wasn't long before we started to indulge our fiery fantasies. This became very intense and nearly ended in a double, fiery, suicide. Both of us were dealing with very serious shit, and fire was our bond. I've had other intimate relationships with women, not all involving fire, but never as intense.
I've experimented with my "Gay" side, thinking that that might be route to take my sex life, but other than a few male on male fire-play sessions that usually ended with me cumming against a stake, tree, or door jam as my butt and cock were burnt with a torch or over a campfire it hasn't worked out. My fantasy world does head into the "gay" world, the story I posted in the "Fire Group" did happen, and was in many ways "gay", but the draw was fire and burning.
