Fifty shades of grey is becoming one of the most popular books, especially among women of a mature age or mind. I haven't read it myself yet. I have heard though that the Fifty Shades are a new-age erotic novel series featuring elements of sexual practices involving bondage/discipline, dominance/submission, and sadism/masochism.
I have a Fifty shades story to tell; one of the characters is a handsome, tall, well-built young man in his late twenties, trained as a health economist, from a traditional and wealthy family of academics. He is not career-oriented himself, although he has a good job, but in reality he just enjoys playing snooker, partying hard and flirting. This man is not a relationship type of guy - at least not the kind of a relationship an average woman would expect to have.
He cannot and does not want to settle down, yet he is occasionally dating a girl or two. He broke up with one of them about a year ago, on the grounds that he was way too irresponsible to be with her; she was a bit older than him anyways. Strangely, or not, he has kept contact with her with the sole purpose of one-off stands every now and then, for the whole past year, despite the fact that he may be dating someone else at the same time.
Obviously, the lady of our scenario had once been in love with him (and might still be in a way, although she admits he is the wrong guy). Therefore, every time he calls to meet up with her, she submits in the hope that they secretly, or deeply, share the same feelings (identify dominance/submission issue here). She feels that they share some mysterious, strong kind of bondage and chemistry whenever they have sex (actually feels like making love indeed), and although she herself does not want him back into her life, she cannot stop seeing him. Many times she has explicitly explained that she has feelings for him and wouldn't like to see him again under these circumstances (implying an all-or-nothing situation) and he seems to accept it in good terms. For a while.
Sooner or later, he strikes back and wants to see her (on a one-off basis again) and of course, she is too weak to say no. So this story goes on and on for more than a year. He is dating someone else and enjoys life in general; she is not dating anyone else and is mainly thinking of him (this should be considered sadism/masochism the least).

In the meantime, this young, successful otherwise (professionally speaking) lady really enjoys the company of another guy or two, with whom she has a lot of common interests and spends worthwhile and fun time as friends (no sex or explicit flirting involved here). Both of these two guys in question are older (in their early thirties) yet quite fit, with a high professional, socioeconomic status and kind manners. However, on the minus side, they are both in relationships - with one being married. Their relationship/marital status does not seem to deter them from establishing a strong bondage with the lady of our story, often expressing their interest by giving her gifts, buying her dinner, and contacting frequently for the regular catch-up. Knowing that these two guys are not available, she does not and would not jeopardize the friendship by revealing her feelings to any of these two. Still, she keeps on spending time with them, arranging to meet them whenever possible and secretly hoping that maybe one day they wouldn't be in their relationships any more and they would want her. Again, she does recognize that this is not a very possible scenario, but she is is not ready to cut these two men out of her life either.
Now of all these characters described seem to be sadistic, masochistic, or/and submissive. These three men are obviously playing a game, and so does she, but who of all will be ultimately hurt?
