RCdc -> RE: Bribery? Maybe? (2/28/2008 9:18:17 AM)

I don't know if this is a good example, but it's something I struggled with. Because Darcy wanted me to be safe when I travelled to him and because he wanted to see me, he would not allow me to buy an unreliable car and gave me additional fund to that which I already had, so that I had what he determined to be safer transport. It was very, very hard for me to accept his gift as it felt as though I could get something less - but as Darcy explained, my safety was more important and it would mean he would worry less when I drive so far because the car is more reliable and better built than an old tin can. Darcy did not want that added stress. If I submit to him, then I must obey him and accept that he knows what is best for me. If I had refused, then I would have been refusing to submit and caused drama in his life he didn't want - does that make sense? What he did wasn't a bribe, but what it allowed and encouraged was submission. the.dark.
