I recently was with this guy as his slave, but It didn't work out because he kept showing me that he wasn't in control 100%. It's either all or nothing: I'm either gonna be a slave to the right guy, or not at all. I don't want to waste my time. I know of no dominant who is in control all the time. This is life and the way of human beings. If your expectation is that your dominant won't ever make mistakes or need help, this isn't very realistic. The question becomes, when you've seen your dominant make repeated mistakes and not learn from them and/or change their behaviour, do you wish to remain with this person? For me, when this type of situation escalates and is significantly effecting my happiness, my answer is usually "no". Evidently, to some degree, your answer to this question is "no" too. Keep in mind that it is important for you to communicate to your partner in a constructive, supportive way. Your dominant may not always be aware of things going on or issues that are concerning you. Thus, it is your responsibility to communicate these in a respectful, loving way. If the issue is important and the two of you can't come to a mutually acceptable resolve, the question of long term compatibility may come into play. Getting back to your "all or nothing" manifesto, this, in my opinion, is an approach that sets you (and future dominants you decide to date) up for failure. In relationships, yes, even BDSM relationships, it is rare that you get everything you want. Now it's true that BDSM fiction is full of no compromise dynamics and this does make for great, fantasy, mental and physical masturbation. In real life though, relationships don't tend to work very well when only one partner's needs are met. Communication and compromise are important lubricants that keep relationships running smoothly. I'm sorry to hear your relationship didn't work out. Hopefully, next time, you'll use what you've learned and meet someone you are more compatible with. Elan.
