ORIGINAL: sexyred1 I don't know anything about the OP, only from his posts on the forums, but from what I can deduce here, some people, like the OP, have had some very hurtful experiences with a particular topic, this one for example. dear sexyred....but I think more than the OPener does this. I have truied to post with the personal content and just get pulled down, shot down andshredded for hanging out dirty laundry yet it is very difficult to post what sounds like a cry for help, a need for in put and advice, whislt witholding the personal information. Hi Prinsexx, I understand that totally, and I do the same thing, but my point was that the thread was going on and on without the OP seeming to understand the various other views that people were presenting. I thought I would point out to that his "chip on shoulder" was likely due to unresolved issues with this same topic and he could not or would not listen to others. We all do this at one time or another, but I know I try vigilantly and fail sometimes, to listen to others opinions without adding my color to it. I think when I feel too closely affected by a topic, I should stay out of it, because when it strikes too close to home, as this one seems to for the OP, then nothing good comes of it, since it gets into arguments with no one seeing the other's side. But amother truth, for me, is that I use these forums to mostly post about my hurt and unresolved issues, for which, rightly or wongly, out of lack of insight, or for not taking a good dose of my own medicine, I have no immediate answer. Usually these type of issues are during a reactive mode in me, when I hurt, or am on a come down or just spinning out. I am sure i am not alone in admitting that happens. But then of course, it's a self-defeating process posting, because the last frame of mind I am in is an open one and so I am least likely to want to listen to others posting and most of all defensive about apparent attacks. Also I really feel it's different, well of course it is, posting from a submissive perspective rather than from a dominant one. And I believe I do both, as a switch, and can honestly hand on heart feel I understand both modes if you like. For me, and again this is only for me and in my personal opinion, I feel more as a submissive emotionally. I get opened up. For me the only way to get out of subspace and grounded whoops here comes reality again, is to re-asseble the pieces of my limits, my thresholds, my boundaries and indeeed at times my self. That's how i read Latexbabes posts....sometimes shooting from the hip, not pre-meditated, and definitely posed as general rather than personal. and this is misinterpreted as having a chip. Oh look, what I am trying to say is that time passes for me and i grow older each secomd and my Dom said to me last night...well if you can't handle it just be a Domme.......because I, as the submissive project onto him what I am feeling and that is i want commitment and promises kept and a future and to be exclusive and for him to love me as much as I love him and so on into romantic ad infifuckinnitum........but that's just how it is being a submissive and it makes no difference that I am of the female gender...I can't say all submissives feel like this but I would hazard a guess as to suggest that having a Dom as devoted and committed to me as i felt to him would be paradise but thats simply not the dynamic is it? Wow, that was most definitely from the heart; I really respect you sharing that. The only thing I can say is that I relate to alot of what you are saying, although I am single at the moment, but the hoping for paradise, for me, is tempered by the reality of life and what I have experienced. So I am now just hoping for a "bit" of paradise, compromise or whatever. If not, then so be it. It can be the dynamic though for many couples, if you read the replies from those who say they are in those types of relationships. I guess it is also a matter of patience on these boards, sometimes you have the patience to deal with someone who is emotional, ie the OP and sometimes you don't. I know sometimes I relate, as you do to the OP and feel empathy, other times I think they are clueless morons. Also, everything that is written is subject to interpretation, right? The OP claims that none of this is about HIM, that he is just throwing questions out. We can believe that or not. Such is life and as you said, getting older provides many insights, into ourselves and others.
