SirEbonyPhoenix -> What do subs/slave really want in a D/s relationship? (8/12/2007 3:57:11 PM)

Here's a question that has been on my mind of late: What do submissives/slaves really want in a D/s relationship? Since my journey began, I've encountered "submissives/slaves" who either had no real time experience or no idea as to what they want. And then, I've run into some who were only looking for sex or were full of buffalo chips as far as being honest goes. Any thoughts on this?

well, i can honestly say that, since i've only had online experience ( i know...that's not real experience) i don't really know what i want, except that sex is not part of my submission. people don't tend to believe me, but it is true. i think that, if i wanted sex...there are soooo many outlets for that. i am a service-oriented submissive...it is who and what i am.

I think its honest to say you only want the sex part of the power exchange. As far as what do people want? With age comes a better understanding of ones self. If I am submissive, I want someone who can take charge.

If I were 21, it would really pretty much be a mysetery. I mean how would I know if I didnt have any experieince? I might think I know, but that might all change after I attempt the relationship. I think we're all entitlled to change what it is we want, as we go along thru life.

I hear a lot of people being suprised by things that dont work after they jump into it and discover its not what they thought. In many ways life is never what we thought it would be. So try to keep an open mind, and a bag full of ready forgiveness by our sides. Just my two cents.

subs want a strict master who knows what He wants and knows how to get it!  Slaves are there to be used however the Master sees fit.  period.,

Since there is a myriad of replies to this, you will have to ask alot of subs/slaves. Each of us wants something different, that is why life is so fascinating.

Speaking only for myself - i sought a Master who wanted D/s to be the strongest thread in the fabric of our relationship but not the only thread.
 
What didn't i want?  A Master who believes that real time experience must include munches, play parties and knowing all bdsm terminology.  I'm not a lifestyle submissive.  A cookie cutter submissive.  A dime a dozen submissive.

Exactly.

Hi,
An age old question ;)

When I first started, I was asked what I wanted. The relationship/interpersonal dynamic part was easy for me to express ( and it has only altered slightly with experience).

The physical "acts" "scenes" "limits" were not realized.  I knew enough to say I didn't know.

I found out there was a whole wide world of luvin' fun BDSM - who'd a thunk! [;)]

PS I did say I couldn't relate to how anything that hurt could be a good thing.    X - wrong answer! ( I now stand corrected)

edit to add:  not quite what you asked OP, but ...figure us out? oooh?

That really depends on the submissive, whether its a he or a she, how old they are, what their background is and what their goals are.  There are very few things that could be said to be common to them all, if anything at all.  It might could be said that most of them are looking for a sense of place, somewhere to belong, somewhere they are accepted, somewhere they have a purpose... course that's people in general, with submissives it just takes on a specific context and form.  Most of them, I find, already have an inner self image of who they are and they're looking for a relationship that re-creates that.  They're trying to find a place where what's outside matches what's already inside.  Figure out what's inside and well... there you are.

Maybe so.

And, probably not.

S-types are really all over the board in their desires.  Who they are, why they are, who they're looking for and why.  How they wish to be treated.

Fortunately, there are D-types for all of these.  The trick is to figure out what the person you are interested is looking for, and whether that matches who you are.

One or the other can conform to be closer to what is 'naturally' pleasing to their partner, and it is possible for that to work out as well.  Probably equally possible that it wouldn't work out.

Unfortunately, there is no simple answer to what the OP is asking.

<----- used to be one in the past.  All I have to show for it these days are dexterous fingers who can snap these posts off with only a few typos to correct.

Padriag:   May I say I am in awe? I couldn't, didn't, wasn't able to express myself or my inner reality on the topic.

While of course your reply was meant to be in general
- may I say   " Yes! What HE just said"?

Thank you very much. Truly inspirational, wise man.

Sir Ebony,
I  can only speak for myself when it comes to what I want in D/s relationship and that is to be with a Master who wants  D/s to be the center of the relationship.  Outside of the bedroom as well as inside of the bedroom. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy the other aspects of the lifestyle but D/s part of the lifestyle is where I am most comfortable.



arayofsunshine55 -> RE: What do subs/slave really want in a D/s relationship? (8/12/2007 5:12:08 PM)

We all want different things.   That is the bottom line.

I want a relationship.  With an inspiring man who is comfortable being a leader but without a lot of protocol.  Who doesn't need a lot of trappings and rules.  He leads, I follow.   I surrender.  And he can be comfortable with that without constantly worrying about whether I know my place or I'm trying to top form the bottom.

There is no such thing as "they" would be the first lesson I would hope you would learn.

Second would be that

DAMN Thats what I have had wrong all these years. My slaves are people, they have personalities and actually get a say in what we do and how they are used. My submissives are... well... people too.

What a submissive or slave wants depends on the person.  Some slaves want nothing but sex, some submissives want real relationships with someone who can be a dominant all the time.  Theres no written in stone definition. My slave, Angel, wants a Mommy.  And he has it. My sub Kitten wanted a girlfriend, and he had it. We were happy, so did it matter that one is a slave and one is a sub?

Lots of people in this lifestyle dont actualy know what it is they want yet. Dom and sub alike. Until someone has some realtime expereince, they arent likely to figure it out, either.

That depends on how far from SW Virginia you are.  I'll have a Blue Raspberry.



Hiskat -> RE: What do subs/slave really want in a D/s relationship? (8/12/2007 6:07:51 PM)

Submissives and slaves are individuals because they are people too [image]http://www.collarchat.com/micons/m21.gif[/image]and as a result want/need different things in their relationships. I think sometimes it boils down to the fact that as people we are all on a journey of self discovery, self actualization if you will..I know I am getting carried away a bit but my point is that we all change and so it seems to me that our wants, needs and desires would change too. When I first came to realize that I was submissive, what was it that urged me to act on a desire I had been surpressing for so long, change. I changed when I made the decision to serve my Master as I am sure could be consider true for many.
