I would suggest that since your relationships tend to be long distance, that while you are in school restrict yourself to the local scene, friends only , so you can concentrate on your studies. LPN school isn't all that long , time wise. By making your studies your priority, you can concentrate on what should be  most important - your future. Doms may come and may go, but education is forever. . PS - when you get registered, and get a job - make sure you start putting money away for retirement. A little now is easier than a lot later.

One of the stipulations to being with my Dom was that I had to become self-sufficient, so that my submission would be truly from the heart and not out of a need to be taken care of financially. He has paid for me to go to college where I'm about to finish my degree and start my career this month.

You stick to what you know is right and don't ever settle for less.

Good for you, going to school to better yourself!!
Any "Dom" that thinks that we submissives shouldn't better ourselves are NOT real Doms in my opinion.  my Dominant is actually encouraging me to go back to school to get my RN, to better my finacial situation and to lesson my stress about finances and my health caused by 13 years of being a CNA.  Says that He will be there to kick my butt when i get self conscience about it all and discouraged.
Doms should want a smart, indepentant submissive that knows how to take care of themselves while taking care of their Dominant.  In my opinion, a Dom who doesn't want a submissive to better themselves are controlling in a bad way and won't be around long. 
So, good luck in your studies.

Do they not approve becuse it would be time away from them? Is it a non-submissive thing to do?

I'm honestly trying to figure out why this is a problem. :-/ Flame away! 



It isn't for many.  My Master sent me back to school to finish getting my degree.  He wants his slave to be educated and worldly.

Then again, my ex husband didn't allow me to go back to school.  In retrospect I learned that it threatened him.

In my opinion education is everything ,regardless of other peoples views on it.I am currently in the process of quitting my job so i can go on and better myself to study at college.The last thing you want is to look back when you are at a certain age in your life and think "that was a bad move not going to college when i had the chance"..Don't question your desire for it or take into consideration what other people may "think"...its you thats hungry to succeed not them..just act on it.

Probably because they only finished high school, and it makes them feel inferior. Especially since you will be making more money.

If you truely seek the font of useless knowledge, you have found your oracle, it is I.

I don't know how many times I have been asked on an employment application:

What year did Columbus sail the ocean blue? 1492.
Before they even ask, I say, The Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria.

Do you have a car? no.
Can you get to work on time? no
Do you have a drivers license? no


Seems I am overqualified.

It's bullshit. My owner would dump my ass flat if I decided that I wouldn't finish school. It's my not-so-humble opinion that any man who thinks a woman is ruined because she went to school is highly insecure and not worth bothering with. If that offends someone... oh well. Now, if he doesn't feel like waiting for her to be done, that's an entirely different matter and he can move on to someone else.

The D types that believe that you should be completely dependant on them becasue you have to be, and not becaue you choose to be, believe that school will make you less submissive.  They prefer a submissive who cannot take care of herself without them, becasue they feel more necessary that way.

Personally, thats rubbish. If you cannot take care of yourself, you are a liability and not an asset. Both my boys are in school. Angel graduates in May and will be heading to the Army (crosses fingers), Fox graduates in several years and will be teaching. I will not even entertain the idea of a sub or slave who was not schooled and able to take care of themselves.  They need to be self sufficient, and able to function assuming I wasnt in the picture for some reason. I personally think that as part of being a good owner, it is my job to make sure they do not NEED to be owned to be functional, but they are in that position becasue they desire it.

You just need to find someone who has a fetish for naughty-nurse play. :-P

Seriously, don't let the idiots get you down.  The D-types that are worth your time will want you to pursue and achieve your goals.  Congratulations on being on your way.

And a Good and Smart Man to boot. I have Much Respect for your Daddy Pita, I hope that you and he know that.

In my opinion the relationship that Pita has is one that defines FUNCTIONAL, He has helped you to be greater than what you though was your greatest and he did it by helping you always to seek a way.

I enjoy the way you and he speak of one another.

So, according to them, in a few years time, having dropped out of college and devotedly served them, you'll be 'old and fat' anyway, and they'll dump you.  Charming.

Any one who would hold you back, ridcule you or bash you for bettering yourself is sooo not worth your time. It shows lack of ambition on their part and serious issues that could become deeper later.



Not too long before we split up, my ex-wife got a Masters in Global E-Commerce. It was the first degree of its kind in the world. Georgia State, U of Athens (Greece), schools in Spain, the Netherlands, Norway, UK, Germany, France, several other countries. It took her a long time. I helped her by dealing with the trivial shit, as well as the real estate and stock investments. She graduated in Athens in 2001 (IIRC)(I lose track of time). I was (and still am) proud of her accomplishments. I am glad I could help her achieve that.

20 years together (feeling a bit nostalgic). She's one of 3 people whom I have told that, if they ever run into some hard times, well, as long as I have a roof over my head, so do they.

i think the Dom's that do this are insecure.  They want their slaves [not submissives] to be "barefoot and pregnant" so-to speak.  For a female submissive or slave to be making more money than their superior Dominant half--how would that make them feel?  Their property to be  independent and have a life outside their Master? Say no more—I can’t take it! xD   Not all—but some.

J was better at making money than I was; I was better at accumulating assets than she was. Worked very well. Back around 2002 or so she hit 5 million miles on Delta. Lots of travel. It worked pretty well. Any man who lets his ego get in the way of an interdependent successful relationship is a fucking idiot.

But...how can you pay MY tuition if YOUR in school? ;-)

Don't bother trying to figure this out. Just know what works for you and find people who match. See it as yet another weeding tool.
