ORIGINAL: Esclava2one Because of distance my Master and i are only able to see each other once a week, if work schedules allow. I guess the right thing to say is that i am more attention starved than anything. I want to do more for Him but since our time together is not much i have not really had the opportunity to do much for Him. I guess basically i am wanting to do more for Him and am unable to do so, so i am getting a little frustrated. As far as what He likes, i have asked and He says i will learn in time. i am not sure how that is possible since O/our time together is so limited. At times when W/we are together it is usually for a couple of hours. I am new to the lifestyle and He is my second Master. my first Master i served Him on a regular basis and i had ongoing projects that kept me busy which made me feel like i was serving and kept me focused on Him. I am aware that all Masters have their own styles. i have been with Him for about four months. i have given all myself to Him, but i feel i am unable to fulfill my role as His slave and that is what i want and what He told me He wanted. My desire to serve Him is very strong and i care for Him deeply and want it to work. i guess you may be right i may need to reevaluate O/our relationship and see if it is right for me because the desire to serve is not being met. It's a matter of perspective, really. A lot of people would cherish once a week and be grateful for that much time. Others need daily in person contact. Do you talk in between those once a week visits? You say you are "starved" for attention - do you not hear from him at all? The other thing that rang out to me in your post is that your "desire to serve" is not being met. Something I learned from another poster and dear friend, BitaTruble - was to serve as HE wishes to be served, not as I wish to serve him. The question here is, who are you serving - yourself or him? I will say, though, if you are unhappy after just four months, it is time to look at what makes you happy and why, and what you want out of a relationship and why. You say you love him and you've given your all - personally I don't think a person CAN give their all in just four months - people are more complex than that and can't possibly tap into their "all" in a four month, once-a-week relationship. Questions to ask yourself (and don't need to answer publicly) - What are your expectations in this relationship? What are you in it for? What are your goals in the relationship (for yourself, for him, and for the relationship as a whole)? Have you spoken to your master about this in a non-self-centered manner? Has he addressed your concerns, and if so, how? If not, why? How long has contact been just once a week, and do you see this as a temporary state or more permanent? What are you doing to better the situation? Is it worth working at to make it better? It's a fairly new relationship. If you are this unhappy already, it's certainly worth rethinking. You might find you're not in the right place for yourself. You might find you're in exactly the right place and just need to view things differently and evolve. It's up to you, though. I'm hoping you've talked to him at length about this. If not, I think you should.
