It was a simple misunderstanding.
That's the problem - it was simple. And it shouldn't have been.
Unfortunately it is far too easy to say "You are just like all the Doms (or subs or Daddies or littles or whatever) that I have ever met. You're all the same."
No, I'm not. None of us is.
But the same type of crap has happened so often with so many people so many times before. We start to see it everywhere even when it isn't there, because we start looking for it, because we want to get ahead of it before it happens. And that makes sense - in theory.
But in practice it just shouldn't be so easy to come to that conclusion. It is true that there are some assholes - admittedly more so among us Doms - that pull the same bullshit because they are too inexperienced to know that its not done that way. The insta-doms or wanna-doms or whatever we call them. But FUCK! we are not all like that.
I may be an complete asshole. I may be a predictable piece of shit. But if you are going to judge me then judge ME! I don't want to be automatically dismissed just because I remind you of that other guy.
Because I'm not that other guy!
