what is the appeal of sadism

It's a kind of connection... or maybe more a kind of access. Almost a kind of belonging. There's an openness and vulnerability that is appealing to me. Unfiltered and unlimited access. It's seeing potential and it's being curious. I want to see what you're hiding from me. I want to make a permanent imprint on you with myself. I want us to be enmeshed to the point of destruction. I want evidence of our connection.
I don't really trust people or their words and I can be neurotic about this haha. Gestures are debatable but they do hold more appeal. I've always been drawn to people who feel more, express more, have much more energy than me.... in some way, I vicariously live through the intensity of the other seeing as I lack it myself. I need it to feel like a person.
It's not fun making people do things against their will, I want to see how driven another person could be. I want to reveal people and see where their limits actually are.. and maybe some other things I am too shy to say.
I would say masochism is a kind of curiosity as well. What would you do if I could let you do anything? If you could be anything without any repercussions
