Frustration...

I've been trying to frame a post about my relationship with S...to let people know more clearly what commitment that I am making to him...to try to justify my actions in face of my beliefs and what I perceive to be other people's beliefs.

But, you know what, I don't feel like justifying how I live or love. And, really, who am I justifying anything to? I love you guys, I really do, but in the end, it's my life and I need to find the way to live it that feels most alive and satisfying to me.

So here it is: I have asked S to be my master. This would mean that I would give him the rights over my time, my body, my ideas...to shape to his whim.

We've had a trial period of this, and I have never felt so truly alive or happy before. I want this - I want this, in particular, with this man. I love him, so that is a definite influence, but more than that he is truly a master at being a master. He calls on my strengths, not my weaknesses, to bind me to him.

We are talking, at length, about what this means (sometimes he processes more than I like...and I'm the therapist), and whether I am truly ready for this. It is hard to be in limbo with it...it brings up all my feelings of insecurity and fear.

So that is that. My odd relationship choice.

Wow! That is a huge committment. I would like to offer up a blog that might be of interest: cunningminx.livejournal.com

She doesn't talk about it all that much, but she has a Master.

It sounds like there are many interesting things ahead for you!
Stuff like this is really hard to talk about, I'm glad you are, Spins.

I'm not sure what I think about this, except of course, that it's your life and your choice in how to live it! I also have a definite hungering for submissiveness, but I am beginning to learn that giving power to another human being over me is not the way for me to go... rather that I need to turn my will over to something else, not someONE else. But because I've thought about all of these things a lot, I'm really interested to see where this new adventure takes you. Of course, I wish you all the happiness in the world!

I also second what Lizzy wrote. If it's right for you, it's fine with me. :0)

Ditto for me Spins, if it makes your life happy, then by all means, go for it. Now, if you could just have a chat with my wife??? Hmm. (JK)

Hello, I've not posted here before, but fascinated by your post here. Like Hyde, I too have a hankering towards submissiveness. I've dabbled here and there and would be interested in developing it further. Not the easiest thing to broach with a potential new man though!
