When I first discovered female-led relationships, it felt like stepping into a secret world—one that was exciting, a little taboo, and definitely out of the ordinary. There was a thrill in the secrecy, in finding others who understood, and in exploring something that felt so different from the norm.
But over the years, as I’ve talked with more like-minded people and made FLR a normal part of my life, I’ve noticed a shift. What once felt exhilarating has become, well… just something I do. It’s no longer a secret or a novelty. It’s just my normal.
And honestly? Sometimes I miss that old excitement. I miss the butterflies, the sense of discovery, and the feeling that I was doing something daring and new.
I suppose this is the natural evolution of any lifestyle or relationship dynamic. What starts as thrilling eventually becomes routine. Still, I can’t help but look back fondly at those early days and wonder if there’s a way to recapture some of that spark.
