As our FLR progressed I got more and more comfortable with it. I was no longer stressed by the idea of putting him over my knee if he broke any rules and his behavior was already improved a lot. But one thing still felt hard, and that was giving him hard punishments, in particular for attitude. Now, in the beginning I did give him hard punishments more frequently, but still a rare occurrence.
Now I should point out that 99% of the time there's not much kink or dominance going on. He wears normal clothes, we do normal things, and I don't control or punish him. The only things we do continuously is orgasm control for him (he only cums once per week) and maintenance spankings on the weekend. Of course, our relationship may still differ from others in the amount of love and affection we show each other (a lot), and of course the amount of oral he gives me (a lot!). Two things that make us both very happy. And, we don't argue anymore.
Nonetheless, sometimes he does break one of the rules we agreed to, which of course leads to punishment. Early in our relationship this was frequent, nowadays it is quite rare. But, it took us time to get there. I always wanted to slack off on the punishments and control, but he wanted to feel that the control was always there even if I didn't do anything overt to show it. In his words, he wanted to feel that I had the ultimate authority.
So how did we get there? Well, mostly time and communication and trying things out together. Making sure we both wanted to continue what we were doing and that it was working for us. But there was also one time in particular that stood out during our first year of FLR and it changed our relationship for the better because it cemented the structure that he wanted and took away any concerns I had about using my authority to punish him. And, as he said, he finally felt that he was submitting to me which was what he wanted.
So, he had done something bad, and I don't want to get into the details but essentially an argument had escalated and it ended with him yelling, calling me names. A year earlier, this wouldn't even have been that unusual but since our FLR really got running it hadn't happened. I was upset, really upset. Frankly, too upset to even consider punishing him. But once he cooled off, and I got a hold of myself, I talked to him. He apologized and said he I should punish him. To me, as probably to a lot of women, I got the "sexy games" part more than the discipline and punishment aspect and so I didn't really want to. But also, I never wanted this to happen again and if I gave the punishment he "wanted", wouldn't that essentially encourage the behavior rather than deter? On the other hand, some part of me understood what he wanted and needed and so I told him that this is the kind of thing he promised would never happen and if he wants to continue this FLR lifestyle, and continue being with me, it would have to be something much harsher than before. He agreed.
I told him to strip and put on the chastity device. When he was ready I took him over my knee and spanked him with my hairbrush while explaining to him just how much he hurt me. This part was almost more for me than for him. It wasn't really that hard although I wouldn't call it a love tap either. After the hairbrush spanking I told him to stand in the corner and not move an inch while I prepared. I got up and prepared an enema. I very rarely use these, but they are effective. Now, I strongly recommend the old fashioned bag with hose, but other types of course work. When I ordered him out of the corner he saw what was awaiting and started to apologize saying he had learned his lesson and all that. But I had already decided.
So, back over my knee he went. I inserted the nozzle in his ass, opened the clamp and let him fill up. I took my time, not rushing it, since if you fill up too fast the urge to go gets too strong. But after a while he started to plead that he was too full so I took the nozzle out and allowed him to get up. I made him squirm for a bit, while scolding him. The stress was very visible and his insides churned, but this was punishment after all. After a few minutes I let him off to the bathroom and prepared the second phase.
