BlueAngelEyes411 -> extremely attached (10/14/2007 7:24:44 PM)

I have only had one D/s relationship and being a total novice, I had no idea what to expect. He had been in the lifestyle for at least 10 years and he was so sweet and patient and went very slow. However, he didn't count on falling in love and that changed so many things. We had a very intense mental relationship but because we were out of the country so often at different times, it never became totally sexual. We agreed to walk away because I knew I could never leave my family no matter what. My question is does every sub become so completly attached to their first Dom? If he came back into my life tomorrow, I'm not sure I would be strong enough not to go with him.

Oh dear BlueAngel -

In my personal experience, I did not get extremely attached to my first Dom - who was abusive to me.  However, I still suffer a very deep attachment to my 2nd Dom - the One who was patient, slow, caring, and not insulted by my intelligence.  Even though we don't speak much anymore and our physical relationship left much to be desired, my heart still loves him - very much! 

So, do what you must to be happy.  I wish you peace.

I am so attached to my Dom, who is basically my first, that I cannot really imagine having to find another one.



LuckyAlbatross -> RE: extremely attached (10/14/2007 9:41:31 PM)

Usually they get attached to their notions of a fantasy ideal dom which they project onto a particular person.

Hopefully those notions die fairly easily and painlessly without much wreckage in its wake.

That being said, I'm completely co-dependent on my partner in most ways for emotional life fulfillment.  I guess the difference for me is that I understand and accept that co-dependency rather than allowing it to control me.



spanklette -> RE: extremely attached (10/14/2007 10:07:10 PM)

In my experience, I've always been in love with being in love. It doesn't necessarily mean "love", but any new and exciting experience. Being aware of my propensity for that makes me more comfortable with detaching myself from those situations when they are over. If this relationship didn't work for you the first time, I would certainly start to look at the why's of that...life is so full of trial and error. Enjoy the good things that you discovered and take the time you need to grieve for the loss of the relationship.
 
Good luck in finding what it takes to make you happy and fulfilled. [:)]

It is Said there is someone for everyone. I do know weird things have happen in the past. I have had love at first sight only once in my life. I have had lust love many times tons. I have had in love only twice. then you hear i love them but do not like them or i like them but do not love them you almost need a road map to fallow things anymore.  I do know this if a person is not balanced in their life.  things will suck the wheel to being with a person comes around more then once. i do know this cause. i have experienced it



littlebitxxx -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 4:34:33 AM)

I was very attached to my first and only for basically the same reasons as the OP, except for the falling in love part.  Yes, it was hard to leave but we remained friends.  I found that over the course of the next year of searching for a new Master, I was taking to comparing all the newcomers to my first.  Not a good thing in the long run.  But it did help me to figure out what parts of whom I liked or disliked, kind of gave me a grounding point for my search.  All I knew was that it was going to have to be a very very special someone to fill my head and fill my heart the way I wanted.  I have found him.  Not a replacement, not a filler, actually in no way comparable at all.  Jarl is completely different as a person, but the core values are the same which were most important to me. 

Like a first love as a teenager, first Masters will always hold a special place.  But they don't have the monopoly in the long term.



Dnomyar -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 4:41:56 AM)

I can't answer this question. I'm a Dom and never fell in love with myself. Have I fell in love with any of my subs. Nope.



MissMagnolia -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 4:46:57 AM)

I can't say I've ever fallen in love with a sub or had an attachment that strong. I might one day, but not so far.



adoracat -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 5:57:32 AM)

Daddy loves me very much....and i love him equally.  it works for us, it might not work for anyone else.

CelticPrince -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 6:29:17 AM)

Blue,

It happens as there is that initial feeling of safety and understanding that is somehow unmatched by others that come after. That is a principal reason why when I mentor someone it is always on a hands off basis to insure total objectivity.
Even mentor relationships are subject to getting too close.

Good Fortune

MrDiscipline44 -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 6:40:57 AM)

When I mentor a slave, it is always hands on to ensure 100% objectification.



CreativeDominant -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 7:26:52 AM)

I too am a dominant and have never fallen in love with myself...

However, I can see where it would be easy for submissives to love me or fall in love with me...~blows on nails and then buffs them on shirt...........................................then grins and laughs~



toservez -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 7:33:01 AM)

Sounds to me from what you describe that you were in the infatuation stage of a relationship. Where everything was new, exciting and carefree because of how it was. The world of possibilities where little negatives had yet to be exposed because it was infrequent and then decided not wise to pursue, utopia was imagined.

These are relationships like all others. Your first power exchange relationship is powerful no doubt and I am not dismissing that thought at all. Whether he comes back into your life and you would pursue it or you find another, it should be about finding the one and being realistic. Personally my .02 advice is not to build up your first like the one you had into a mythic situation. Follow your path maybe the next dominant will be even better or maybe your first will be back.

I think we all fall into the "I can't live without this" the first time we
experience anything pleasurable.
Whether it's the first time we masterbate to orgasm or fall deeeply in love with another human being.
 
I also think it depends on age and life experience of whether you can make good judgements about with-standing for your own good, futher advances from someone you feel so fondly of.
 
We all learn our ways of surviving the pitfalls, the loves, the heartaches, and learn to embrace more quickly moving on to our new adventures.

BlueAngelEyes411 -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 9:57:08 PM)

Hello,
I'm sorry I'm just now answering your question. I've been married for almost 27 years. That is the first and only time I've gone outside my marriage. I know it's silly, but we walked away from our relationship about 19 months ago and I am still waiting for my feelings to become less intense for him.

BlueAngelEyes411 -> RE: extremely attached (10/15/2007 10:00:11 PM)

I just keep waitng for him not to be the first thing I think of in the morning and the last thing I think of at night. My heart still hurts almost as much as when walked out the door 19 months ago.

I hate this thread. It's disturbing. How come the subs say they thought they were in love with their first Dom (or extremely attached), at least at the time and the Doms say that they have never been so strongly attached to any sub? How do you get a Dom to fall in love?
