If I needed to safe word and didn't THEN I'd be in trouble. While I haven't yet needed to safe word with my Dom, I have safe worded in other situations. I was starting to pass out due to my position and didn't want to re-tear my rotator cuff on the way down. Not safe wording would have been stupid.

If you wanted to be the judge of everything and what was ok and not ok to do and create the consequences for your actions, why did you choose to be with a dominant?

I understand your irrational reaction, but best to recognize it as your own irrational reaction and stop wasting time and energy over it.  Laugh at yourself and your silliness.

A good submissive doesn't allow her Dom/Master's property to be damaged. Your safeword prevented harm from happening. I'd be in trouble for NOT safewording.


I would too. I remember once I was in a session and my Dom could tell I was in trouble, for lack of a better term, and he asked me why I didn't safeword, and I said something along the lines of what you said in your post (it's been at least 10 years since this happened so I can't remember exactly what I said) and he asked me where I got that idea from and told me I would be in a LOT of trouble if I ever didn't use my safeword when I needed to again.  I got the message...

You did nothing wrong, the wrong would have been done had you NOT safe worded.  Use it when you feel that you are in imminent danger of irreparable physical, mental, or emotional damage, you used the safeword, so now he knows that there is some obstacle there.

Ouch is not a safeword, but 'Sir when I get down from here I'm going to rip your balls off' thats maybe a yellow, depending on my mood.

i go with the stoplight colors as well, and the first time i used "yellow" i felt really disappointed with myself afterwards =p
and it had nothing to do with his reaction to it, he never made me feel bad about it, it was something completely internal
i think initially i was frustrated with myself for what i interpreted as not trying hard enough or whatever, but i dont think it's anything you really need to feel bad about

No its not him thats saying this to me he said it was okay, and wasnt upset over the fact i cried or used my safe word, i mean he hug me and told me that its alright, but im still feeling like i let him down, cause i didnt let him go as far as he wanted for today.




Why did you pick him to be your Dominant?  Was it because you trusted him, respected him, and wanted to be submissive to him?  If the answer to the last three questions is yes, then trust him, respect him and submit to him by believing him.  He says it's ok, you didn't let him down, then YOU DIDN'T AND IT'S OK!

Really, you have a safeword for a reason, you used it as you were supposed to, you did exactly as he told you to do.  How is that wrong?

Maybe the problem is with him not understanding or respecting your boundaries then the problem of you being a "good submissive".


Sure why not blame the guy.  I mean after all he did stop when she waved the flag.  So it must be his fault.  I am sure there is something wrong with him exploring new vistas.  If the old time sailors felt that way.  We would still think the world is flat.

First off, we all come from a place of our experiences. So I have experienced something like this. Not from someones malice or sadism but their lack of understanding or experience. They could just be trying to push out boundaries a bit too much. Second, when someone says "maybe" at the beginning of a sentence they are not stating something as a fact they are posing a question.

So no you shouldnt just blame the Dom but the submissive shouldnt blame herself and occasionally their is an issue with the dom. I should know. I have had more than one inappropriate whack in an area that should be considered an endangerment site .

People are widely ignorant on the medical knowledge they should have before becoming a Dominant.

this illastrates areas of caution and endangerment that a person has to stay away from.

In the very beginning of our relationship I used my safeword.... and I felt no problem with using it. It was either puke or stop and I chose to stop rather than puke.

Safewording is not seen as a failure around here.

youve been together for 3 months and youre still learning about each other.  maybe he pushed you a little further this time to see how you'd go.

but look at it this way.  he now knows that he can trust you to safe word which means he can relax and enjoy himself knowing you have the sense to call it when things get too much.  and you know you can relax and trust him to stop.

oh and by the way, why do you suppose the safe call came into being in the first place.

he said dont worry, so dont, do as your told  xx

Sweet, I can understand completely how you feel.  You are disappointed in yourself, but don't be.  The whole reason for safe words is because it is hard for one person to judge when another person has had enough.

I was a Domme and became a slave.  One of my tasks last week was to Domme a male sub.  He asked me to do anal fisting with him and I carefully reviewed the safe words before we started.  It was the first time I ever had a sub call "yellow" on me.  I immediately stopped what I was doing, made sure he was alright, and talked with him about proceeding onto something different.  It turns out that he never had anyone go that far with him before.  I asked me to show him how far I got my hand in, and he was very proud of himself for how much he took.  I was not disappointed in him at all for letting me know that he had reached his tolerance limit.  I did not feel less of him as either a sub or a person.  I would never want to cause harm to another, and if he had not used the safe word I could done just that.

Forgive yourself because you did nothing wrong.  Believe your Dom's reassurances and be happy that he cares so much for you.

Maybe you should stop questioning his judgment and believe him when he says it's okay.

Good point. Maybe you should bring up the fact that you have trouble trusting his word when he says things so you two can work on that instead of being obsessed with something he's already let go and told you he's okay with. Just imagine how frustrated he would be if you continued second guessing him.

    Like everyone has said already....use your safe word...use it when you need it okay?

Dont irriate him by not using it.   My slave has done that a few times trying to tough it out instead of using her safe word.  And  could tell by her body language that she needed to use it, so I backed off anyway.

Safe words use them always and dont be ashamed okay!?

Although I understand completely not wanting to use a safeword, not wanting to control or top from the bottom, the fact is no one is you - and no one really knows how much you can tolerate at any given time. Now in a relationship that's not full time and still very much in its sprouting stage, I don't see a thing wrong with using a safeword. It provides your Dominant with the opportunity of learning you, which is very important if you want to get to the point where your safeword isn't necessary, because he understands your limits and will push you past them, knowingly. That's the difference between needing to use a safeword and using it to manipulate the Dominant.

Early in a relationship, a safeword is a wonderful learning tool. Your Master is still learning your boundaries, after all, and one doesnt know what line not to cross until they run into it. It is also possible you didnt know where this line was drawn, either, since you have never used your safe word before.
Some days, a body can handle more than it can others. Your Master seems to understand this, and I am sure he will keep an eye on playtime after this to see if what happened that day was a one time response or if that is a limit on what you can do. Either way you have both learned something. He has learned where the line in the sand is for you, and you have learned  (or will have learned once you realize it) that using your safe word when it is necessary isnt a bad thing. Using it constantly, or when you dont feel like doing something is like crying wolf, that is when it is not an useful time. However, when a scene does go too far, your Master cannot read minds and thats why you have a safeword.

Talk to him, I am pretty sure thats what you are going to hear, as well.

I am glad you are feeling a bit better about it now. My sub side empathises but also understands that calling "yellow" before it gets too bad is the best way for you and your Master to learn where you're at on that particular day. And as others have said, tolerance levels vary from day to day, especially in females with their monthly cycle.

As a Domme, I tell My subs I am going to play till they call yellow. So right from the start, any macho male thing they might have is brought down to "call yellow or this is going to intensify!" That works . In one way, it's surprising it has been 3 months before your Master took you that far ... or maybe He wasn't game to because He thought you might not safeword and He was being ultra careful. Realise that it is a tremendous affirmation of trust to call yellow. you are saying you trust Him to help you explore your boundaries and to see just where you can go ... and it helps Him trust you so that He feels ok about doing that. WhileI agree you and He should talk more about it, realise that something wonderful happened between you and go at it from the positive not the negative. And believe Him when He says it's ok!

That is exactly the right thing to do; good for you! As long as the two of you can talk to each other without fear of recrimination, you will be fine.
