ORIGINAL: NuevaVida I used to be of the mindset that serving him as he wished was return enough and I wanted for nothing more. This was well and fine, until the way he wanted me to serve him was threatening my mental health. Then, serving him alone was no longer the fulfilling experience I had previously enjoyed. Now I realize it's easy to say this as long as you're in sync with what you're dominant partner wants. When you're not, "serving him alone" can be extremely unrewarding, and it has nothing to do with one's "level of submission" or devotion. I'm also of the mindset that issues do not miraculously resolve themselves. If you are unhappy, there are conversations to be had, and there is thinking to do, and decisions to make (in any direction). From reading your OP, I'm understanding that your Mistress is uninterested in participating in your development as her slave. If this were OK with you, you wouldn't be posting about it here. So the questions I have for you are: * Are you willing to continue forward and see about developing on your own? * Are you willing to remain as is, because what you have from her now does not appear as though it will change...? * What do YOU think the solution is? I'll use an analogy a wise and dear friend used with me: If you have a pet and do not feed it, do you still expect your pet to thrive? No, the pet will starve. And as the pet is starving, it will no longer behave as a happy, thriving pet, because...well...it's dying. Are you this pet? Do you want to be? I wish you well with this - I understand the difficulty. Dear NuevaVida, I would not have thought that, all that i feel at the moment could be captured into three words , but your description of "serving him alone" is excactly how i feel. It is very unrewarding and leaves a feeling of emptyness. I have struggled with this for sometime, and I have tried to make some suggestions. Mistress replies that any changes need to come from her so that she has thought them through. Which i agree with ... but i am still waiting. ...but to answer your questions. I am putting together an email to Mistress which descripes all that I am feeling about our relationship and what I would like to see changed. I will use your pet analogy to make the final point. I will then see what her response is and then decide. Thank you Scala
