it sounds like wonky game playing and it would frustrate the heck out of me, too. getting punished for EVERY single little silly thing isn't going to foster any sense of ANYTHING in anyone. =p there is ALOT of really good information here. especially this post by strangerthan. i think this is probably why people tend to act kinda funny towards relatively young people who insist on being called master because that mastery of self is something that doesn't usually occur at a younger age. =p and atleast in my opinion (read again, my opinion =p) someone who's a "master" has earned that title. a master of martial arts, a master painter, there's a REASON why they're called "master." they don't just bless themselves with it. =p my Dom has never insisted that i call him anything special but i still feel the urge to do it because it's something that he's demonstrated being worthy of =p he's made me think that that's how he SHOULD be referred to, not by hammering it into my head but by showing that that sort of self-mastery is present. there are certain things that i'm not supposed to say, and i make alot of mistakes because alot of them are seriously hardwired (BAD) habits but making someone shut down isn't a constructive way to get a point across. if i mess up, he reminds me, but to me it seems like he's more interested in getting my brain around the larger concept he's trying to teach me than in showing his domly gnarliness by bullying me about it. just having somebody say "master" after every bloody sentence doesn't make you a master. =p he once said something about forbidding me to do something (i feel bad because i can't remember what exactly) and i was being smart and retorted "no you can't" =p but then i sat there and thought about it and i realised he actually could because his dominance deserves that much respect. =p if he'd punished me for being a spaz, i would've totally understood why =p but i think he figured out that i'd figured it out =p there are alot more "Sirs" going on in my brain (but this is all really new and it's a totally new thing to actually WANT to call someone that =p haha) (i know you're going to read this, soooo yeah haha =p) if something weird happens, he wants to discuss it and figure it out. even if he thinks it was a mistake on his part, he STILL wants to discuss. =p your sub isn't the only one who's going to mess up and it's totally okay to realise that. =p it doesn't make you any less of anything, actually it takes a bigger person to admit that they have done something not quite kosher. anyway, that whole thing about your ROOMMATE being present... uh yeah, not every sub in the world is an exhibitionist. and by present what do you mean? was he in the same room while all this was happening? were you shouting so that even if he wasn't, he could hear you? how does HE feel about being unnecessarily included in your kink? even though i'm into D/s and everything, if the neighbor was shouting "on your knees and suck it!" or something, i'd feel creepy. =p if it was happening IN my house and it wasn't a play party, i'd feel even MORE creepy. =p that's something she should've known BEFORE, not after. =p if something like that had happened, i wouldn't have been very talkative either, but then again, this is one of those things -- i'm pretty sure my Dom cares enough to know how i would react to something like that BEFOREHAND =p he wouldnt 'have to ask "oh yeah, while i was making you analise yourself, there was somebody else here, just sooo you knoooow lolololol" =p he would've already known if that was a good idea or not. =p i dunno, she may be perfectly fine with it (i've read some of the other posts, but not every single one) but in my opinion, that should've been made known earlier. anyway, nobody's perfect, and everybody makes mistakes, but this has got to be some kind of hugely important learning experience. =p some people like micromanagement and all that, but if she expressed to you that you made her feel like she couldn't talk at all, then maybe you need to take a moment and talk to HER about it and figure out what happened to get to that point.
