ORIGINAL: daddyncherry If you set out to form X relationship, being that that relationship will ultimately be TPE (this is the intent at the onset), yes, you would have to go through the steps....yes you would have to get to know one another all of that, certainly. The question is more to the point of..rules and boundaries set up within the relationship. i sited the example of the Master, at the onset, saying, that yes, he will be having sex with other girls at his descretion....So then, that would be understood from the onset. For me, this type of thing would've been easier, than, now, a year and change later, after getting all comfy cozy, to then be told that he would do this. Another example would be...Furniture...would it be easier to adapt at the onset to not sitting on the furniture, or to have that freedom removed from you after the relationship is more formed?...Sleeping in the bed with your M for a year, and then told to sleep on a cot... This is what i was trying to get at. Is it easier to have alot of the "fences" in place at the beginning and then to maybe earn them or whatever over time? Or is is easier to have all of these freedoms and then one day realize "Oh damn, i really was taking for granted the aability to sleep in the bed?" Edited to add: i tried to explain my feelings to my Daddy at the beginning..how the boundaries would make me feel safer and more secure within our relationship. i likened it to a child needing boundaries..and how it would be more difficult to impose those on me later....Kind of like if you got a kitten...and as the kitten was growing you allowed it to jump on the bed, the counters, and basically go where ever it pleased...then suddenly...you don't want the cat on the furniture....well damn, wouldn't it have been easier to teach it that from day one? Except that maybe you didn't decide until day 1000 that you didn't want the cat on the furniture. Or maybe you didn't want the cat on the furniture initially and then decided on day 1560 that you did want the cat cuddling next to you. Things change, people change and evolve as do relationships. I view relationships, espcially ownership dynamics as an organic being that needs feeding and really does unfold over the years and changes over the years. So I think its absolutely impossible to set establish all or even the majority the rules and boundaries upfront unless: 1) its a short term relationship 2) its a non-organic/artificial dynamic thats fairly rigid. C~ Edited to add: I'm not a fan of terms like TPE, PPE, PE, PEEING, which is why my post didn't use those terms. I just prefer referring to structures that involve enslavement either ownership or enslavement. But I don't believe in setting a goal for ownership or deciding to make a relationship an ownership dynamic, I think either it is or it isn't there (a function of creating an artifical dynamic versus an organic dynamic that evolves and develops based on how the people naturally relate).
