Common Practices & Experiences
Everyone is different! You'll see this repeated throughout our website and glossary. Common practices and experiences involving dynamics include, but certainly aren't limited to:
- Deciding upon the specific shape and size of a dynamic with the person or people involved.
- Having changes to a dynamic over time.
- Separating different dynamics within a single relationship (i.e. someone could be one’s spouse, one’s bottom, and one’s business partner.)
- Taking time to establish a dynamic with a new partner before deciding on what might work best in the long term.
