Pauses, voluntary release and the emergency exit
The three ways to interrupt a chastity period and what each one costs. The emergency one is immediate, needs no justification and carries no penalty — always.
Reviewed on
Interrupting a chastity period is not one single thing. There are three routes and they cost different things — worth knowing which is which before you need it.
1. Pause (with permission)
Only if the period was started with «I accept pauses».
- You: press «Request pause» and give a reason. It shows as pause request pending.
- Your Dom: gets the alert and can «Grant pause» or reject it.
- Granted, you will see «Pause active» and until when. Three days maximum.
This is the normal route for hygiene, sport, a medical appointment or travel.
2. Voluntary release (with a cost)
Interrupts the chastity now, by your decision and without anyone’s permission.
- Press «Voluntary release». You can add an optional reason.
- It costs reputation points. The app warns you before you confirm.
It is not a moral punishment: you committed publicly to something and you interrupted it. Reputation reflects facts.
3. Emergency release (no cost, always available)
This is the safety exit and it cannot be disabled, not even by handing control to your Dom.
- Press «Emergency release» and confirm.
- You are released immediately.
- Your Dom does not see the detail.
- No reputation cost and it does not count as a breach.
Use it without hesitating at pain, swelling, numbness, colour change or loss of sensation. No dynamic is worth an injury, and no Dom worth the title will hold it against you.
If someone pressures you not to use it
Being told the emergency exit «doesn’t count», that «it’ll cost you», or that «real subs endure» is exactly the behaviour this platform goes after. You can report it from their profile or from the conversation: the report is anonymous to the person reported and the moderation team reviews it.
Frequently asked questions
Does emergency release cost me reputation?
No. It does not subtract points, it is not logged as a breach, and your Dom does not see the detail. A safety exit with a penalty would not be a safety exit.
When should I use emergency release instead of asking for a pause?
At any physical warning sign: pain, swelling, numbness, colour change or loss of sensation. In those cases you do not ask anyone's permission: you get out, and you talk afterwards.
How long can a pause last?
Three days maximum.
My Dom is not answering my pause request.
The request stays pending until he grants or rejects it. If it is urgent, do not wait: use emergency release.
