Introductions discussion

Hello everyone, I’m a young gay guy living in the southern U.S. I’ve been happily monogamous with my partner for almost three years now, and as you might guess from that, I take on the receptive role (bottom) while being naturally somewhat submissive. Recently, I started actively training to improve my bottoming skills, shifting my focus so that my anus becomes my main sexual center. The challenge is that this requires quite a bit of time and energy; it’s much simpler just to jack off quickly when needed. I’ve tried orgasm denial solo before without any equipment for about four weeks—it was truly intense! I finally decided to go ahead and buy my own cage (a Holy Trainer v3 with the small tube and 50mm ring) and locked up on Valentine’s Day. My partner is fine with it but isn’t super keen on acting as my keyholder, so I have the freedom to unlock myself whenever I feel like it. So far, I’ve removed it a few times daily for cleaning and adjustments since I produce quite a bit of precum which can develop an odor after several hours—no problems there yet. Also noticed that slipping out is fairly easy. This means the cage acts more as a constant reminder of my current focus rather than a strict barrier to orgasm or masturbation. The fit isn’t bad at all, though having large testicles meant I had some adjusting period for walking, sitting, bending over, etc., without them getting crushed between my legs since they can’t shift position as easily anymore. Erections are possible within the tube but aren’t very functional—the shaft just pushes against the cage structure. I’ve slept with it on overnight for three consecutive nights now, waking up occasionally to readjust before falling back asleep. The primary source of irritation so far is where part of the tube extends behind the ring along my penis; this section has been poking into my pubic region and causing some pinching. However, wearing it all day today seems to be helping things improve gradually. Are there any other gay or bi individuals here using chastity in a similar way? I’d love to hear your tips, thoughts, or questions! Thank you for taking the time to read.
