... I'm contrary. It's the one thing about me that isn't helpful, in ANY way and can't be placed in a good light no matter what............

I immediately wanted to start finding ways in which that COULD be helpful and placed in a good light...But then, I'm contrarian, also.

Please let me know if you can......lol

I am driven, and prefer creating new, exciting projects to finishing old, boring ones. I prefer to work alone and do not deal well with micromanagers and fools. I am stubborn in the strangest areas, and yet, am constantly seeking change, rearranging lives, and am, in general, a Chaos-magnet. If a situation is tenuous and holding on by a thread, my presence alone is often a sufficient catalyst to completely obliterate the situation. Add in my propensity to speak candidly and with utter disregard for politically correct sentiment regarding the facts as I see them and I am, in general, a social challenge.

Add to this my anal-retentive nature in regards to time; my insistence on having lists and plans for -everything-, even when I -know- they'll be obsolete before they're ever used; and my tendency to overpack books and music (thank heavens for the i-pod... my CDs used to have their own suitcase!); and you have a woman who is a perpetual challenge.

Oh... and in case anyone thinks I didn't know... I'm fat.

Oh my...i've got so many.

i'm a horrible housekeeper, i can do it, i just choose not to (i suppose that tends to happen when one lives by themself and they have no one "motivating" them to keep the house in order).
i'm terribly shy - at work i'm forced to be outgoing but otherwise i simply can't do it.
i have a cutting/sarcastic sense of humor that tends to offend some and yet, is refreshing to many as well
i tend to push myself beyond my breaking point, and then just a bit further
i tend to fuck with people if they seem to be begging for it (i.e. "True" Masters who want to be leeches)
i procrastinate A LOT
my sex drive is way too high for the limited time i have to accommodate it
i've got limits
i don't put up with BS or negativity
i'm sort of a cheapskate unless it's something i'm giving to/doing for someone else
i don't tolerate excuses
i'm a total klutz
i'm forgetful - i suffer from multiple Blonde Moments daily

I have absolutely no internal motivation or drive. Without outside influence, i will not attempt to better myself or my situation in any way. It is easy for me to just "accept" that it just is that way, so i never bother trying to correct or improve on my own ... not my job, my spirituality, my finances, education, nothing.

I am compulsive and prone to addictive behavior, although (thanks to a job during high school in a secondary chemical treatment facility) i have not actually become an addict.

I have a strong impulse to play the martyr and feel sorry for myself. It is the single thing i am called out on most, and i work on it daily.

Weaknesses....what an outstanding topic. To me, the entire lifestyle is set up to excentuate the subs flaws, and make the dom appear flawless. Tops are to be in control, know whats going on and appear to have no distint weaknesses...thats what attracts a sub, someone whom they can feel comfortable letting go with, because they feel that who they submit to can handle and control everything.

However, I used the word 'appear' in the description up there, and for good reason. Tops and just as screwed up as bottoms, my flaws, my weaknesses are to many to count. It's the same response that many others have had. My biggest one is that I am stubborn, to a hilt. Not so much that I am set in my ways but I refuse to learn things from other people, I must do them myself.
Another is that I sometimes dont push as far as I can, I'm constantly holding back a little. I am loathe of pushing the sub too far. Most Doms would agree that this is a good flaw, perhaps an attribute even, but in times where the sub is clearly able to take more, it can be a hinderance. I am capable of dark things, I am just hesitant to unviel it to the wrong person, I dont want to hurt, or take someone where they dont want to go. So I hold back, sometimes.
I let complainers get to me, if a sub complains too much, I simply loose the urge to continue. If you give yourself up, why complain? If its a good complaint, around the "I cant feel my (whatever) anymore" then its no big deal, that's fine; Safe even. Yet it's a big peeve of mine when someone submits only to complain the whole time about little things. It's a flaw I dont deal with it better.

Yet for the actual every day weaknesses...I am completely flawed, to the point that I have more confidence in the mistakes that I have made over the successes that I have achieved. Learning from doing is a great tool, I just seem to learn better from failures it seems.

I suppose the saving grace is set in your second sentence opening "To me". Without it the statement is likely to be read as a global statement which would not be acceptable and would I am sure be challenged. All I can say, it appears that your contact with others participating in the general umbrella of BDSM or kink, may be limited because I do know quite well on a physical bases or if you prefer real time, a number of such people whose dynamic with their subs or slaves is quite the reverse and is aimed at encouraging the sub/slave to make every attempt to reach his or her potential. Such Dominants take pride in the achievements or successes of their property. These people you understand are what I could refer to as the best of the Dominants for they have understood and applied the reality of owning someone and embrace the responsibilities of such ownership.

Just a thought to mull over no more, no less..

Regards....

This is Drakontos

According to my property, I am a prickly bastard who alternates between shooting those barbs and digging them deep.

I am uncompromising, unbending, unforgiving, demanding, and at times, deliberatly cruel.

I accept my flaws though and have no wish to change or correct them.

Girls with big eyes and pouty mouths.......

Damn, I thought that said weakness, not flaws......... lol..........

Flaws, hmmm...... Okay, here goes......

I am impatient. Hedonistic to a fault, if a little bit is good, a whole lot must be GREAT. I love shoes way too much. I kill house plants just by looking at them. I love the sound of my own voice and talk way too much. But I despise talking on the phone because that's what I have to do at work all day. I talk dirty to the girls in the pornos I'm watching - those sluts! I drive way too fast and if I had a gun, I would surely shoot some of the other drivers for being idiots. I love cartoons. I play way too many video games. I like to have icecream for breakfast. Housework gives me a migraine. I masterbate way too much (see above porno reference). I don't call my Mother enough.
