Every submissive I've ever known starting out said that they were frustrated and lacked patience. In two years they either learned how to be patient or didn't consider themselves a submissive anymore. Patience is definitely something to be learned.

quote: Are you a patient person?,...Do you beleive patience can/could be learned? It really depends upon the situation at hand. In a D/s context I have learned to be very patient at times. If we are talking about dealing with ignorant people in the general public sense....my patience is pretty short, especially when they get in the way of tasks that I need to complete in a work setting. I'm also not a very patient driver...lol.

I consider myself quite patient, though I do not allow for recurrences of incompetence when the lesson should have been well learned. There is a fine line between being patient and being played. Patience can of course be learned, and most have the capacity to learn it when under the correct 'circumstances'.

quote: ORIGINAL: LadyElizabeth Are you a patient person?,...Do you beleive patience can/could be learned? I wish I could say yes to this, but lately I have not had the patience that I should have. It has been so stressful for me the last month that I feel like I am on an emotional rollercoaster. Most times am I patient? I would like to think that I am.

Long as that sub isn't claiming to be slave, I'm sure you'd never pop a gasket.

For somethings I have a lot of patience other things not so much. When I was working at the hospital, with the mentaly handicapt residents I looked after I had as much patience as it took, regardless of how long something took. They had problems and for the most part would try their best to get round those problems, or in some cases, simply couldn't help what they where doing. For supposedly normal people when they are acting like compleat idiots, I have virtualy no patience at all.

IronBear -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 10:46:11 AM)
With people (kids especially) and animals? I have a great deal of patience. In a former profession, I had the patience of job waiting for a perp, target or who ever to show and make the wrong move.. It takes time and you only get one shot. With tasks I am doing? I have patience and have learned that there is a time to down tools and walk away for a while .. Have a coffee, smoke, punch the shyte out of the punching bag or throw stones at a brick wall. With computer games? No I don't have a whole heap of patience as the whole house can attest when they hear salty anglo-saxon comments .. Descriptive comments ... Very descriptive comments issuing from my area. (The computed swears not me....[;)]) With myself? I have little patience and zero tollerance when I make mistakes. Howerver I can summon up sufficient patience to do a review of what I did wrong so i can learn. There are tricks you can learn to develop patience or can teach another. In these cases I have all the patience in the world to coach another..

quote: ORIGINAL: LadyElizabeth Are you a patient person?,...Do you beleive patience can/could be learned? I have asked to be granted patience. Instead, I am granted daily opportunities to learn patience. With people that I love and care for, I find this daily opportunity an easy one to grasp. With others it's not always so easy, but I've never regretted being patient while I have regretted the alternative.

quote: ORIGINAL: cloudboy Long as that sub isn't claiming to be slave, I'm sure you'd never pop a gasket. Such claims occur quite frequently. Observe now why I am such a cool-headed psycho ward patient. Oh wait, OP, was that patient as in "tolerant and calm?"

windy135 -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 11:04:41 AM)
Sometimes I have patience, like when I work with children or the elderly. But yes I am guilty of swearing at drivers, in these cases my patience ceased to exist. So I agree with some of the others, depends on the situation.

Evanesce -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 11:59:45 AM)
quote: Are you a patient person?,...Do you beleive patience can/could be learned? As I've grown older, I've become a hair more patient, but it's still not my strong suit. It's definitely something that can be learned, but one must be patient in doing so.

Lordandmaster -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 12:01:32 PM)
I don't think people are born patient, so, yes I think it is something that can (and has to be) learned.

KnightofMists -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 1:35:42 PM)
quote: ORIGINAL: LadyElizabeth Are you a patient person?,...Do you beleive patience can/could be learned? In some things I am very patient... others no patience that all. My mood and situation will modify my patience up or downward. I must certainly feel that patience is a skill to be learned.

proudsub -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 2:11:43 PM)
quote: Are you a patient person?,... In most cases yes. A few things I have no patience for are slow loading web pages; bad drivers; friends late for their tee-times; and slow golfers in front of me.

HouseofBear -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 2:35:15 PM)
Most people in my life would tell you I have too much patience, lol. However, patience does have a limit. Lady Ursa

NeedToUseYou -> RE: patience? (2/15/2006 2:37:32 PM)
I'd have to say no in most regards. Ask a question Once, great, Ask twice, urmmm, Ask Three Times, Boom. I really, really hate having to repeat things. It sets me off pretty fast. Or when someone agrees to do something and then make excuses, why they didn't. Booom! Patience gone. I guess, my whole view is if someone is asking you something they should listen the first time, and do what they said they were going to do. I guess some would call that impatient, but I just think it's disrespectful of the other person, wasting my time.
