Hi Hallie I have read your responses and it makes me wonder why your Master has such a hard time expressing to you what pleases him and what doesn't...? It seems that either he isn't communicating well enough or you are not listening well enough. and/or possibly visaversa..He is not listening well enough and you are not communicating yourself to him... After a year of being together > which do you think it is? I agree with the others who say your answer isn't going to be what works for others in their relationships> but what works between you two. I think sometimes in our efforts to please them, it creates a fear of displeasing. Perhaps Im just speaking for myself here...shrugs.. but I know I had to really LISTEN and trust him when he said never to be afraid of saying the wrong thing, expressing myself and my feeling is what gives him knowledge to guide US in the relationship. Fear is me keeping my control. Fear is a wall that keeps him out. There is no room for fear between us. When I learned to trust in that I learned a new kind of trust in him.....but I couldn't get there until I was willing to risk saying or doing the wrong thing and then being instructed of his preference...not his displeasure, but his preference...There is a difference, I had to learn that.. I am not perfect...none of us are...
