I have never through about it that way, but it’s definitely “good kind” of pain

Ha! I miss so much my masseur who had to quit after a health issue. He was both intuitive and without mercy and yes the pain it was kind of a turn on. Also like 6.5 feet tall and gay, so both strong and safe, I didn’t have to worry about him being professional. I told him I did not care at all how the massage felt, I wanted to feel better afterwards not during. Have never had someone like that since. He legit would HURT me but it was so productive.

And yeah it’s about the level of pain I can enjoy I would say. Today I had a migraine and that is unpleasant as fuck and migraine switches off all the chemicals that can make pain into pleasure.

I thought most people enjoyed (maybe not in a sexual way, but still) that sort of massage pain, the hurt-lean-in-feel-it-breathe feeling but learned it’s not necessary for healing tight hurtful places, many people respond to gentle massage by relaxing their muscles and end up with good results, and prefer that.
