I think that having limits or the lack thereof is dependent upon the status of the relationship. At its onset, limits, those of both (all) partners must be discussed and determined. Hopefully, one is dealing with compatible and complementary needs and desires. Within an established D/s, M/s relationship, where a deep level of trust is fostered and nurtured, I think it is not so much an issue of limits - omg I will never do *X* as it is a continuation of the trust, compatibility and complementary needs and desires of each person. Without the absolute trust in my partner, I may indeed say I would never something which I may have defined as a hard limit. However, knowing that he would never hurt me, never, not, no matter what, limits become less of an issue. I trust him. I trust his caring and concern for me. I know and trust his skill which he will develop and expand because of his caring and concern for me, because we both are fully cognizant that as he would never betray my trust, nor would I his. My greater need is to please him and I, as a result, am willing to try and experiment with new sensation, new play, new games. Ultimately, my greater need to make him happy supercedes the "act" I thought I'd never attempt. This is predicated upon a deep level of trust within the relationship. In instances where one is playing/scening with a partner, limits should always be in place and adherence to them an absolute requirement of the play. newflowers
