ORIGINAL: DesFIP The way around the dilemna, silkenfire is to tell him this about your fear of rejection upfront. Not face to face, because that's too hard for you right now. But through email. ... ...If he's a good guy, he will be gentle in saying "not now pet, after I see if A-Rod gets a homer" or some such response. And he'll try to take you up on it as often as possible to encourage you to offer more.... I like both options. I enjoy being asked, and I enjoy simply initiating myself. I also agree with the advice to let him know your concerns about rejection. Personally, I don't want it *all* the time. And, sometimes the timing just isn't right (as in the humorous example in the quote above, but it could be for other reasons as well). But I do want to make sure that my sub feels encouraged to ask again, so; thanks for posting this query. It is a reminder for me to mention that I love it when she asks (...even if that timing thing isn't always right for me.)
