Great advice so far, so I'll just add a bit more from personal experience. While you are doing all this reading and talking and thinking you discover BDSM is a great big new world, filled with lots of fun, scary, exciting, pleasurable, painful, and often unexpected things. You'll find the things you can't wait to try, and ones you think you'll never be into. But, just because you have found all this amazing stuff don't feel you have to rush to try it all right away.
Go slow, enjoy and explore together! Start with simple stuff first, build trust in each other and learn to read one another. You are both new, so don't dive head first into the deep-end. A bad experience can put you off playing for a long-time if you don't have a foundation and experiences already. And know that there will be lots of good, great, amazing times, but there will be times when it just doesn't work as well....all part of the journey.
Have fun, talk lots, and good luck to you both. Hope this helps - kuri
PS - naughty texts are a fav of mine as well - both getting and sending
