I didn’t end up switching rings for the evening periods in my adjustment period, but I did do shorter stints locked in the device when I was adjusting to a “downsize.”

I was thinking something along the same lines. Wearing the smaller ring during the day and switching to the next size up at night. I found the 1 3/4″ perfectly comfortable when flaccid. In fact, it’s as you say on your blog. I think the smaller ring is easier to wear than the larger one, but only when soft. It’s good to hear someone else’s experience with this.

She’s not just doing it because I want her to. She’s making it her own. And I love her so much for that.

ZOMG SO HAWT.

Ahem…. But seriously, that’s the hottest part of this kink for me, too. It’s the active control from my keyholder that is the attraction.

I remember the 1 7/8″ ring also caused pain at first, so I suppose I just need to eventually suck it up, wear the 1 3/4″ ring and make my cock adapt. But I chickened out and reverted to the larger ring just before bed.

Just to give you some context on this, I had the very same experience. When I would switch to smaller size, it would hurt and be uncomfortable. I suspect this is partly because the tighter the ring the more stretch and strain the skin over the scrotum was forced to endure. I didn’t end up switching rings for the evening periods in my adjustment period, but I did do shorter stints locked in the device when I was adjusting to a “downsize.”

As long as you’re not constricting blood flow for any significant length of time, you should be fine. Good luck! And enjoy the weekend! As usual, I am both envious and relieved I’m not in your position.
