Thanks for all the advice and comments, good, bad and other. He is still with her and I am still wanting him with me...though no idea at this point why. He told me if I stay attached I will just continue to hurt myself and he is right. That being said I am on a break from dating anyone and just taking time to take care of me for a bit.  Guess time will tell as to what happens but really does it matter? Who knows.... In the meantime I am enjoying reading online here to learn more at least as I was just beginning to experience this lifestyle.  Thanks again! C.

"When you love someone, set them free,
and if they love you enough, they'll come back....
and if they don't ....
hunt them down and shoot them..."

I'm not so sure about dumping him forever, but I would say, dump him for now, and don't expect him to return. Make a clean break and start getting your life back together. But if he does return, review it at the time, on the basis of what he says.

I'm saying this because I met my Master at a munch. He was married at the time. The marriage was bad, his wife wouldn't even consider BDSM, but told him to go to the munch anyway. We made the connection, he left his wife, all was great, but she was always trying to get him back, he felt guilty, the whole emotional catastrophe. He was miserably guilty so he went back to her. I let him go with my blessing as I only wanted his happiness, no matter who it was with. I moved on as best I could. A few weeks' later he was back, having resolved all his issues. He asked for a second chance and we've been together ever since. We married a couple of years ago. Some stories do have a happy ending. But for now ... let him go ... move on...

Big hugs from one who has been there

You can find a great deal of comfort and solace in developing your relationships with other submissives right now.  They will know and understand what you're going through and you will not feel so isolated or alone.

Focus on friendships with subs for now.

Finding the strength to move on will come with time.

Indeed. This is the real question, and you need to go inside yourself, rummage through your thoughts and feelings until you do understand why. The problem with pain is most people try to avoid it because it is, well, painful. This is often especially true of emotional pain; some people go through their entire lives refusing to face that.

It takes willpower and courage to face your own inner pain, and to delve into the insecurities that underly it. If you have the courage to tackle it, you will find your answer, and you will not only have done yourself a HUGE favor, you will have grown considerably as well.

Namaste, Sir Dominic

i know this is easier said then done but the less analysing of the break up you do and just start doing things for YOU the faster you will get back on track and be able to put him behind you.   It's ok to miss him but don't make missing him your entire life.  Take time to recoup before getting into another relationship.  Keep in mind it has nothing to do with your self worth - he was probably not totally honest with you about his left over feelings he had for his ex.  Not fair at all to you, but not everyone is out to be fair in this world.  Take on some of the responsibility and learn from it - ie: maybe you got involved to fast and didn't evaluate everything quite the way you would with a more level head?  Hope you feel better soon

My first master who I have only known for a short time has just decided to return to his last girlfriend to see if things will work out between them.

I don't know what it means to be in transition in training to be a submissive without having my master in my life. I feel very lost actually and somewhat heartbroken as life was going very well between us day to day.  Any suggestions from a master that might be helpful?


I am not a Master, but I feel a need to reply.  On Friday, it will be 6 months since I was released.  It had been a 3 1/2 relationship.  It had built up slowly, and I had been utterly devoted to him.  He woke up one day and released me, without any prior hint it was coming, or any warning whatsoever.

I wanted to curl up and die.  I didnt know how to go on, after having given so much of myself to him.   My life felt empty and hopeless.  I sobbed for weeks, remembering his touch and his voice.

But in time, I stopped crying.  I was able to stand up and take baby steps in my life again.  I stopped hating myself and blaming myself.   I stopped trying to remember his touch and his voice.  I wouldnt let myself fantasize about him.

Each month on the date he released me, I did something to move farther away from him and closer to me feeling free enough to move forward in my life.  I wrote letters that I never sent, that were for ME to let go and express my feelings.

I know now that it wasnt MY fault that he did what he did.  I have been able to get angry at him and at how he released me.  I have been able to chat a bit with a another Dom.   And I know I can live without my former Master.

Im not sure I can ever trust another Dom to the degree I did him.  Im not sure I will ever feel as devoted to anyone as I was to him.  Only more time will tell.  But I am going slow, taking my time, letting myself heal, letting my heart give him up totally and heal.  I know I deserve that, to heal and find peace.

I wish you luck in finding your own peace and healing.

I used to think that one should sit with the feelings and take time to grieve, but unless you've had a long-term relationship, life is too short for this!  There is a saying, "Women grieve, men replace." I know that this is a generalization, but I think that more women should take the male perspective. Get out there and get busy! (And I'm speaking from experience.) Good luck!

Well the update ..... sure anough he was with her for a few weeks and they had words and he walked. And half an hour later he called me having been drinking (which I did not know at the time). I went over, spent the night (nothing happened and we just enjoyed time together), the next day he was sober and we talked...we were together for 3 days, and no notice he texted me when I was at work to say he had something to talk about that I wouldn't like...he was going back to her. They have been back together for a while now and things are going well for them, but they were last time too.  I think I have not learned as much as I should have. I still want him back.....(shakes head and knows full well that I make NO SENSE).  The answer should be that I never go back.

 But my question is why are you so interested in filling your life with so much drama and pain? That is all you will get if you keep hanging on. Relationships should be a fulfilling and uplifting experience. If you believe you deserve better, you will find something better.

hun trust me i know where you are coming from. i had a Trainer i was with for over four months and when W/we split it hit me like a ton of bricks. He did it in an email that i got when i got home from work oneday. it took me a while to find that i did nothing wrong and S/some think He is married. that was last year. since then i have met and have been talking to a very nice Master. W/we started off as friends and things have gone from there. He knows what has happened in the past and has taken things slow. so yes there is Someone out there for everyone, it is just finding the right One for you. i think the phrase goes "you will kiss alot of frogs before you find your Prince"

He's using you and you're allowing it.  Once maybe.  Three times???  Your fault.
Grow some balls and tell him to fuck off.  Then move on and be happy.

FINALLY OVER :)  He turned out to be the guy that most of you thought....I went to see him after he had dumped me again and I had to pick up some of my stuff....guess who answered but his GIRLFRIEND..so there we are looking each other in the face...I asked for him and my stuff, he stood there and was in shock with a smile....I left, wishing him to tell her GOOD LUCK (she'll need it and then some)...and I walked out.  It was classic as an ending......GOOD BYE SIR and THANK GOD!!!!! I am FINALLY emotionally and physically FREE!

Ouch! Either this guy was on the rebound in a serious way, or else he's just being a coward and using that line as an excuse. Be glad you saw his true colors before things got more serious. I know it doesn't help the heartbreak right now, but this one's obviously not worth your time.

I hope you're finally getting it that he wants HER and uses you for comfort when she disses him.
