The rights you have are only the rights your Owner may choose to permit. That is something you should make sure is worked out beforehand. Don't confuse the D/s of things with vanilla. The D/s is the current that runs through everything. It is not a role when you are at home, or when you decide it suits you. Again, this is something you have to work out with your Owner. If He wants you to act vanilla, and switch gears all the time, that is fine. But most do not. They expect a certain demeanor all the time, and the ability to react properly in vanilla situations so that your lifestyle may remain private, but you are still in D/s mode. Don't think that if you go to the mall or grocery store, you can suddenly revert to teasing or mouthing off, just because you are out in public. I would be surprised if you didn't get a very fine punishment for that. But again, it is up to your Mastern and you will agree or not agree, upfront, in the beginning. I have some concerns that you are not sure at all how this is supposed to work or what you should expect. I know you asked another question about 24/7 on another thread. It may be time to have a serious talk with your Master and make sure you have covered all the bases. And a contract is usually a good thing, IMO. I am DustyGold, Goddess, GoddessDustyGold, or just plain Dusty on the message boards. GDG is fine too. And I have used those intiials on occasion on other boards. hi Dusty You do make good points and i'm sure it is good for others to hear it, but it is not a concern you should have for me. Though once again i appreciate your concern. = ) The D/s and vanilla are not confused for me. It was something early on that i did get confused. i am not confusing the two now, yet overlapping the two, as to me they are diverse, yet the same. You are right its not a role, it is what our relationship is based on. i do also know how its supposed to all "work" i have plenty of my own ideas, most of them re inforced by Master, and then more of my own ideas that just rattle around in my head. All i am doing here, is thinking out loud. Looking for more opionons to re inforce my ideas or to debunk them. i'm not looking for answers, just re inforcement i suppose. To see if others agree or not to agree, cos even though i always joke about "always being right" i know it is far from the truth. As i have my own issues that cloud my thinking sometimes. Half the reason i was asking about 24/7 was because Master mentioned i do so when we first started talking about living together, so there wouldnt be any suprises. As it is about to happen, i thought it might be a good idea. The other half, was i was abit nervous, because as always, he is silent in his thoughts, so i can only imagine <grins> What he has up his sleeve. (if anything at all) So i was trying to get a better grasp on things. Looking to re inforce the grasp i already have. i usually before i open my mouth and ask a question already have a cemented idea of things. Alot of the times i ask because i want to check and make sure i am not "missing" anything. i already have my answers. For the thread on 24/7, i've already got a pretty darn good idea of how its going to go. i've already got the basics down, i know what its like when we are together, so i expect it will be more of the same. i expect it to be more indepth. i expect it will be "complete" training as it will be more possible now. i say complete, because being so far away, there is only so much one can do or learn in a short period of time. As for this thread. i thought i pretty well stated what i thought, in a clear concise manner. Maybe its too much ramblings and musings thrown together? Okay, from the top. i believe everyone has their own unique set of faults. No one is perfect and no one is better then anyone else. i believe it is wise to find out what another's faults are before commiting oneself, because it is the "faults" of each other that will make or break the relationship. As the "good" is generally a pretty easy thing to get along with. i believe when it comes to relationships, its all about what you can and can not deal with. Second topic. The questions i asked Emerald. And yes i already had a belief and was curious to hers. i believe that it is our duty (duty is a terrible word, but for lack of better) as submissives and s/o's to help our Doms improve. Because it also services them in their world. i believe our Tops do help us, vanilla wise, by improving us to their ideals. Example : Quitting smoking. That is something that could please a Master, but also helps the slave outside of the Master. Therefore i think its one in the same. Our Doms help us D/s and vanilla. Though it doesnt matter which world the improvement touches on or even if both, they are still helping us. As people who love, and subs that serve ~ shouldnt we also help them improve? i think we should. Like i also said, there are alot of faults we as people can not see about ourselves. Isnt it a service to point out the things our Doms can not see about themselves? i think it is.
