To Me, the OP came across as unduly negative and judgemental to a point. Surely it depends on factors such as the length of time of involvement and the reason why the relationship ended! For eg, death of a Master (such as in adora's case *hugs hon*) seems to be a "legitimate" reason to seek another ... but isn't the death of the relationship just as legitimate? Why soldier on and make both lives miserable if things are not able to be worked out? My Mum and Dad did that till he died ... and truly, the bitterness that engendered within them just was not worth it. Whilst I don't take relationships lightly, and it can be very hard for me to admit defeat, I would rather do that and set us both free to find something more fulfilling than to kill each other's soul by staying together! So yes, I have been married twice and am now with Master to whom i am not married ... oh my, that sounds like i am a "flitter!" Except I was married to hubby 1 for nearly 16 years, to hubby 2 for nearly 12 years ... and have been with Master now for 4 years! I'm a very slow flitter LMAO! And I am still friends with both ex-hubbys ... and they are even friends with each other ... hubby 1 moved into My old house to help hubby 2 in getting it ready for sale ... and then drove hubby 2's classic bikes over 3000km in a truck to help him relocate ... and then had to drive the truck back alone! I believe in fostering healthy relationships! As for whether it demeans the term "Master" or not ... well, that could be applied to any chosen name couldn't it? Shouldn't I have called the second husband "husband" because I'd already had one husband? Similarly, it would apply to any D/s name ... to have more than one "Sir", more than one "Owner" ... that's a spurious argument. In fact, one reason why Master bans the use of "Sir" is precisely because it is used outside of a D/s relationship ... He hates being called "Sir" in shops, restaurants etc ... and it also has overtones of school too. No one else refers to Him as Master though ... unless it is a sub in Our family (for example, if I find a permanent sub then they will call Him Master also as He is Master of the household). The OP would do well to phrase questions more openly and try to avoid lacing them with their own opinions ... especially if they don't want some people to take umbrage! Maam Jay aka violet[A]
