Looks we'll just hafta agree to disagree then....
The trouble with your little story here is that it is written from your submissive's perspective. (well duhhh.... lol)
Not sure why you took the "I am going to be as condescending as I can possibly be" approach, but if you think it works for you, keep it up.
Crikey, I do love it when I get "tag-teamed".... <shrugs> I'll be a sport and answer your nonsense this one time - not that I owe *you* anything for your belated arrival here.
You say "condescending"; I say merely light-hearted banter with someone I enjoyed having this discussion with. So straight off I get the vibe you've come here on white stallion and reflective armour to get all offended over nothing.....

IE, while YOU saw it as wasteful and maybe even a nonsense etc (read "busy work"), it would appear your Dom (or Daddy) did have a specific goal in mind from the outset; thus, definitely not busy work to *him*....
And there's the difference! Losing weight is something tangible enough to actually measure progressive achievement. Your journal was "stand alone", there is no real alternative strategy to work in unison with it. Losing weight is best tackled with several strategies at once - diet or at least controlled eating, regular exercise and, ok, this food diary. And the support of a loved one doesn't hurt, either. And the OP obviously knows that, too, hence she was also concerned at merely being assigned a diary as his control "effort". And I still see it that the OP's dom only went with the simplest strategy (for him), which made it feel half-hearted to me - and the OP, too! Or to phrase it a little differently, this male Dom (yours truly) saw that male Dom as assigning "busy work", and still does....
The way I read her post was that she had a realization that what I asked her to do had a purpose, and was not just busy work I gave her to pacify her fragile, eggshell, submissive mind.
That's how I read it, too.... And your point izzzz? Nice demonstration of your own condescending abilities though - yet that's what you incorrectly accuse me of! lol
quote:
I am a bit confused by your statement "we will have to agree to disagree."
That's because it's about our respective thoughts on the *OP*. You did read the OP, right? Because this really isn't all about Julia or myself - or..... <gasp> .... you, either!
quote:
You think what I asked her to do was busy work? Or you disagree that she suddenly realized there was a purpose for this assignment? Or you disagree with my asking my submissive to do something?
Please clarify this thought.
Well, *to clarify*, the answer to all your questions is a resounding "NO!". Even though you've actually quoted the passage where I specifically acknowledged you did *NOT* assign "busy work", I'll repeat that quote just for you, so you might actually read it this time before going off half-cocked again....
Note: Edited to add names where appropriate but here tis:
Focus:
"IE, while Julia saw it as wasteful and maybe even a nonsense etc (read "busy work"), it would appear your Dom (Sinergy) did have a specific goal in mind from the outset; thus, definitely not busy work to *Sinergy*...."
Or you'll find the unedited version in *your* own post!

The condescending comments about her being a submissive were a bit disrespectful of our dynamic.
Entirely in your own easily wounded imagination.

quote:
Judging him? Sure - every single time I give an opinion on a stranger's relationship and based solely on the limited and selective information only *one* partner offers, I'm making a judgement for which I do NOT apologise. I could argue you made quite a few judgements of me when you originally cited my earlier post - I'm ok with that, too! Is what we do on public discussion boards.... lol
Dont need to apologize to me or her.
Agreed, I have absolutely nothing to apologise about *your* bruised ego and total misunderstanding of what I believed were two adults discussing a topic from different perspectives. If you get in early and pick up the general rhythm, you're less likely to post such embarrassing rubbish and accusations that you've aimed my way.
quote:
When you post here you are only giving one person's opinion, your own.
Well duhhh.... (That's still humour but this time it really does have a condescending tone attached)
Focus.
