I'd just like to reaffirm much of what has been posted above but also add from the perspective of a submissive. Now the raison d'etre for being in a relationship with a dominant is that you place their needs and wishes for fulfillment and happiness above your own, or at least equal to, but primarily you place those needs above your own needs for fulfillment as it's generally understood that part of being a submissive and a happy submissive is that in fulfilling the needs of your dominant and pleasing them, you in turn become fulfilled and happy. Bear in mind that you're not going to get everything you want nor is your dominant going to fulfill your expectations. Hence essential to submission is sacrifice and compromise. How much? Well that depends on how much you want to be with your dominant and how much you want a successful relationship with them. What I'm writing about here is something which is pretty fundamental to being a submissive. I'm not even going to go into such things as service or even enslavement, but pretty much bog standard submission. On the basis of what is written in the OP I doubt very much that you could handle being a slave to a dominant woman who forms any sort of relationship with another man. I mean you haven't even really touched first base when it comes to being a submissive, have you? You've spent four years in a relationship with this woman and only tried to introduce any sort of dynamic a couple of months ago. And from what I can tell you're making a right pig's ear of that as it stands today. I don't see any point in you going on like a dog in a meat shop when you haven't even got the basic fundamentals of submission worked out. Sure I can lick shoes, give body rubs and kiss ass and I can do all these things without being submissive which is how I see this. It's not even submission, it's called bottoming. From what I can see you've come into the relationship on a hidden agenda and are now trying to manipulate it so it all somehow fits in with your fantasies, the root of which appears to be some pretty dodgy self-esteem or similar issues. Oh please don't get me wrong, I also have issues with self-esteem and yes I go through phases where I really want to be a 24/7 slave and have no control over anything at all. But you know I don't let my fantasies rule my head or my life and I am working on my issues well away from anything related to BDSM. I have a simple solution, if you are submissive then be submissive and accept the fact that just as much as your good lady is working hard to be your dominant you need to be working just as hard in developing yourself as a submissive for her and for you. The first step would be learning some compromise and sacrifice, to give up some of the control of the relationship and to expend more effort into making your dominant happy. That is, of course, if you really are as you claim to be, a submissive, and not a bottom or someone else. Whichever way you need to be making a crossroads here and working out what you really want from the relationship and communicating. If for whatever reason the relationship fails, then it's worth treating it as a learning experience. Being yourself, communicating what really lies inside, together with a bit of sacrifice and compromise would be a good start.
