My situation may be a little different from others, based on what I've seen from the responses here. I don't consider my girl to be my mate, nor does she consider me to be hers, although she carries my child. Although she doesn't think of herself as a slave, considers herself too burdened with limitations to be a true slave, there is no doubt that I own her.
We do have different perceptions of our daily lives. I, holding all ultimate authority, see everything she does as service. She sees those areas where I allow her initiative to be less than service. Her position is that if it's something she would do anyway, even if done to my standards or within parameters set by me, it can't truly be a service. In the final analysis, I value her service more than she does.
We both see her position as that of a servant and mine as master of the manor. Her service encompasses all that I might require from her provided I accept that her sexual service only extends to my person. Her only requirements: she be allowed to serve with honor, which dictates that I manage my house and personal affairs with honor; I provide her a bed to sleep in; I allow her to attend to her basic human survival needs; I provide her an environment wherein my requirements are not contradictory to the point where she can not fulfill her service obligations. She asked me what role I desired to play in the life of our child. She didn't presume that I was obligated to take responsibility for "her" pregnancy.
Our dynamic may seem somewhat alien to those who more closely relate to their SO as a mate or some variation thereof. In truth, there are times when it occurs to me just how far from the norms of my upraising I've traveled. There are very few on the submissive side of the slash that I've spoken with who seem to relate to my girl's vision of service. I admit that it took a lot of discussion and soul-searching before I accepted her as my own and even now I am often awed by her selfless dedication.
She may not be a slave in her own eyes because she won't sleep on the floor or be shared with others, but I couldn't place a higher value on her than I already do. She is "on" 24/7 unless her health gets so bad that I send her to bed or she is literally incapable of carrying on. There's nothing I would ask of her that she wouldn't do.
Although she doesn't require much beyond the opportunity to serve, I find I'm inspired to actively seek out ways in which to reward her for her service. I can't give her a "vacation" from her service for it is rewarding to her to serve well but I do find other ways to show my pleasure. Her greatest satisfaction appears to knowing I appreciate her efforts. Quiet companionship, although not a requirement, seems to please her much more than baubles and nights out on the town.
glad to share our experiences,
Timothy
