I don't even understand it myself how one can become a switch. I said I would NEVER be a bottom. Now, I crave both....Sometimes at the same time! I REALLY enjoy BOTH sides, depending on the person and my mood.

Truth be told, I had already had to convince myself to get serious with her, because she was fairly alternative (tats, emo rockabilly look), but I really liked (cliche coming...) her personality, and we just clicked. So... after the initial shock, we stayed together and invariably we began incorporating different aspects (me topping) into our sex life, because that's what she enjoyed. I truly enjoyed topping, having always identified as a dominant Type-A personality. We eventually experimented with switching, and even "performed" at her place of employment a time or two. And at some point I realized that I enjoyed the submissive role much more than being dominant, especially when playing a brat.
To ramble to a point, I too enjoy both sides of the play, and it does very much depend on the mood and partner, but I find myself missing the pleasure of bottoming much more than the pleasures of topping.
And to come to another tangential point, I wish that you lived closer...
