Would anyone be willing to share how they have setup long term professional D/s relationships when it comes to paying for services. Im not looking for how much money was spent i’m sure for many that is personal. I'm more interested in the structure.

As the new year hits i am trying to determine the best way to set this up.

Did you pay for session time only?
Did you pay a certain monthly amount etc? Pay as you go pay upfront?
Did you share financial information?

In my current arrangement i normally send money randomly throughout the month. I have also given my Domina a credit card which i pay for her. I really enjoy the intimacy of her having the card. It makes it feel more real to me. This definitely requires a lot of trust.

I don't specifically pay for session time. There is no pre determined amount of session time. Its whatever we feel like for the month. I like this approach as again it makes it feel more real and that i am paying for a relationship and not a service.

My current relationship could sort of be described as a dominant GFE

I am also thinking of sending a set amount for the year or for several months and just handling it that way.

What has worked for others pros/cons etc?
