Master? I have a request…
Yes
So, it’s time to learn…
Yes
What are you going to teach me?
Hmmmm, what do you know?
Why do you need to know that?
So I know what to teach you.
Oh, don’t worry about that, just teach me something.
OK, this is how you weave a tapestry from silk and wool thread that will hang on the wall forever as a testament to your vast knowledge and skills at doing something productive.
But I don’t want to learn that, teach me something else good, better yet, teach me something fun, and maybe a little nasty.
Like what?
Oh, I don’t know, surprise me… I promise I’ll be a good sub… I’ll do whatever you want.
The Master/sub relationship is symbiotic over all, each receives a benefit from the other as the result of their combined efforts and interaction with each other.
I had someone tell me that obedience requires trust, ahhhhh, very astute, and trust is built on what exactly? Knowledge, getting to know someone. You cannot trust someone you don’t know, and I will also submit that you cannot actually trust someone you have never been in the presence of physically. Many of you disagree with me on that point, and that’s fine, this is my blog, and my opinion, feel free to share yours on yours.
There are a number of disgruntled subs out there who feel like they have been used, abused, and lied to. I have a question for you. Has anyone ever seen a book called…oh, say, catchy title like. “Dominating for Dummies?” Maybe one called “Submission for Dummies?”
No on that one too huh?
There is no owners manual, but one thing I have learned is that there are more than enough prideful individuals out there that will not admit how much they really don’t know. In fact, most of them don’t even know how much they don’t know. They are in a state of what I call “unconscious incompetence.”
At least the newbie submissives have the sense to admit what they don’t know, but after they admit that, and find a “mentor” where do they find any checks and balances to make sure they are not being led like a sheep to the slaughter.
One sub spoke today about being Ghosted, count your blessings, someone finding out that they are really not prepared to handle someone else’s mental well being and just running from them is without question a very kind then for them to do.
Yes it hurts, and yes it sucks, and no they should have talked to you about it, sometimes things happen, I actually ghosted someone when this whole panicdemic came down and I must admit, I had so much flying apart like a two dollar watch, I did not handle anything very well and then a couple of outside threats rose up from the ashes and I just went away for a while.
Three little words that work wonders “I don’t know.” That’s a fair response to a question. Nobody said you have to be an expert, and being willing to admit that you are not might very well be the first step toward enlightenment.
At any rate, it is a very good idea to talk when things are not as they should be.
Just some more of my ramblings.
