Cage-Free Option - Other Possibilities

Greetings everyone, I’m new here and also new to chastity. This is my first time posting. My wife and I began this journey seven weeks back, and it has been wonderful. It’s truly changed our lives. I was the one who brought up the idea to her; she agreed to try it, and we set off together. Under the honor system, I went five of those initial seven weeks without an orgasm. She granted me release on the evening exactly five weeks after we started. Now, in my second week back in chastity, she estimates another three or four weeks until my next release. I’m enjoying it immensely. The question I bring to this forum is hoping for similar wise counsel: my wife doesn’t care for the chastity cages. She dislikes how they look entirely; finds them off-putting. She has also made clear that she prefers feeling my erection pressing against her at night, believing that sensing the plastic or metal of a cage would be another turn-off. Furthermore, she wants to touch “her” penis whenever she desires and isn’t keen on having to worry about removing the cage every time that urge strikes her. She likes seeing “her” penis hanging freely, not bunched up as she puts it. I, however, REALLY want one. Not because I might cheat or masturbate; I am fully committed to honoring both her and myself in this endeavor. Cheating on her would mean cheating on myself since we are in this together. I love being chaste and really don’t wish for frequent orgasms. I enjoy the state of constant arousal. What drives me is a physiological need. I want a physical reminder that she holds authority. The idea of being locked up feels very erotic to me. I also wish to limit the sensations “her” penis experiences when rubbing against sheets at night or inside my pants while erect. Alas, this change might take time. She has indicated openness to using a device eventually, but it could be quite some distance off. Baby steps for now. Thus, I have proposed wearing a stainless steel cock ring in the interim as an outward sign of devotion to her. It serves as a physiological reminder to me of her dominant role in our sensual and sexual lives. The weight of it on me throughout the day would constantly remind me of her presence. I believe it satisfies some of that physiological craving. She is open to this concept but has concerns. Our main worry is whether prolonged wearing affects my health positively or negatively. We plan to choose one that fits slightly loosely so blood flow isn’t restricted. We will use this as a symbol rather than using the cock ring in its traditional, tighter manner; it won’t be tight enough to restrict blood regardless of whether I am erect. Has anyone tried this? Also, are there others here with wives who aren’t keen on cages? And/or did your wife eventually warm up to the idea? If not, has the honor system worked for you? Thank you for any insights and wisdom!
