Status: offline 		after a recent scene with my beloved Master, i lay next to him thinking as i often do. something that came across my thoughts that made me stop, reflect, and try to find a reason for an action that i had just done.

i havn't been able to enjoy any "special time" with my Master, due to recently having a baby, for a little over a month; but He has been keeping my mind active by having me put my fantasies to paper or words and speaking of what is to come in these next few months as He makes up for the lost time. during this time without His touch (for lack of better words), i have noticed that i have been looking forward to his favorite punishment for me almost as much as i have getting to play again. this suprized me a bit, but i brushed it off as the need to feel Him close to me.

but what i found myself doing today truely suprized me. i found myself edging a rule just a bit in a (subconsious?) attempt to get Him to punish me. i even held myself back from answering Him (the way to get the punishment to stop) until he increased the intensity of the punishment. i found that i was starting to revel in the punishment, not an erotic feeling as of yet but i definatly felt that deep inside i was enjoying it at a level i had not previously.

so here is my question: is it wrong to be turned on by something that is used as punishment, something that sends a worried chill up my spine when he just spells the word? is this my SAM side showing or is this a sign that i am deepening in my enjoyment of the more physical side of bdsm (ie the application of ice on the body, spankings, and other non intamate sensations)? should i explore the feelings more when my Master uses the particular punishment or is it no longer a punishment once i start to enjoy it?

i told my Master that i didn't want to tell Him exactly what i was thinking about since i was afraid He would no longer use that specific thing as punishment. i don't want this perticular thing to never happen again and i still think of it as a punishment, even if it is getting a slightly more intense responce under the surface than it did previously. i want to get opinions/advice about this before i talk with my Master about what i was thinking, though He will most likely read this posting and know exactly what punishment i am refering to. i welcome responces from the subs as well, since i bet some of them have felt this way themselves.

As far as your feelings. No feelings are ever wrong and even if they were, how could we control them? I dare say, we can't.

Perhaps you are using a bit of manipulation? But then again, we all do!

Now, rock the baby to sleep and then you and your Master Rock!

Status: offline 		Sounds to me like you miss him, and want to feel him in the most intense way. When i miss my Master most, i begin to crave the most extreme things he does to me. Talk to him about it. He can not possibly dominate you appropriately if he doesn't know what is in your head. i would share everything you just shared in your post.

As for enjoying a punishment, it could very well be that you enjoy the intensity of what is taking place. However, i have found Master can whip me for his pleasure or for punishment, and even if he strikes me exactly the same way, i will feel them very differently. Knowing i have disappointed makes everything he does as a result feel terrible.

Either way you should tell your master. A punishment which is giving pleasure is reinforcing negative behaviour, not something that is probably a good thing in any relationship. He needs to know this and to adjust things accordingly.

Is it wrong? Not in the slightest. If it is a new way for you to find pleasure, enjoy it.

Status: offline 		jadenth congratulation one the birth of your child but what you are saying reminds me of the movie the secretary was doing things to get punish by her Husband Master. This is very normal feelings for you enjoy that part of your D/s relationship. If you have not had the chance to see the movie yet or if you did remember at the end of the movie were her Husband was inspecting the bedroom before he headed off to work. Then she went back to the bedroom and places a bug on the clean neat bed spread. I am wondering what her desire was too when she did that. For those you have not seen the movie sorry for ruined the ending to it. :) ScorpioMaster

while the fact that you have not been able to have time with your Master, is indeed understandable, that is still no excuse. it is not wrong to feel that way, but the way you went about it, could be considered bordering on disrespect. and that is not righ tin any way shape or form.

Status: offline 		I'm not much into defining somebody elses right or wrong. And, I'd agree that such attention seeking behavior may be related to hormones and or the lack of play time due to your pregnancy.

However, I think it's a bigger picture and it begs the question: How does one hurt a masochist? Isn't physical punishment a reward at some point?

Frankly, I think a lot of people in the scene confuse punishment with something they really enjoy as part of play. Hence, in my book there is a big difference between administering dicipline (often pleasurable) and administering punishment (not pleasurable). The worst punishments for many subs is not the same old spank and flog yet something more annoying like writing lines, time outs and doing tasks they really dislike. I'd hate to escalate a subs pain to pleasure cycle with punishment and miss out on a lot of fun with discipline.

Just my 2 cents, Mark

Status: offline 		Feelings themselves are rarely ever wrong, they can be indicators of instinct, of desires, they can be warning signs. However, I agree with RavenMuse. When a punishment becomes pleasure it then begins to reinforce negative behavior. It may be temporary, considering your recent birth (many congratulations by the way:), or a permanent change your mind has adopted. But for now, you need to be open and honest with your Master so that he can have the opportunity to incorporate this new fact into your lifestyle. Just like you've always been told...honesty is the best policy.

I wish you all the best.

Gideon

Status: offline 		id like to thank all of you for your insight in this matter. the thoughts you shared helped clarify how i felt about it and made it easier to talk to my Master about it. i have talked to Him about it now, and even though we had a bit of a falling out about me not telling Him how i was feeling, i think we have patched that up and are stronger for what we endured. i know i am especially now since He decided that if i am going to start to feel His disipline ( thanks Mark for making the distinction) as pleasure then He would just have to see how much of it i could take. it really makes one stronger in spirit to have a very trustable Master that can take you past what you thought was possible.

Does he come home and ask how you are doing, or does he ask first about the baby? The baby books refer to it as pregnant princess becomes post-partum Cinderella, back to living in ashes and doing all the drudgery.

Congrats on the little one. When I read your post my only thought was that you missed him...feelings are feelings they are not right or wrong they just are. What you DO with them, therein lies the issue.

Best to all of you,

Aside from all the great suggestions from everyone, I'd like to offer a little something. Obviously, daily life can niggle in and try to take over (especially with a new baby--congrats!). When that happens, I find myself craving the things that make me feel most submissive to Master. Perhaps that's something similar to what you've been feeling--just an intense need to feel His Dominance--and it manifested itself in that particular instance, as whatever that punishment was. It sounded like you are both very familiar with it, so it stands to reason that it was/is something your sub/slave mind identified with, and latched onto, for comfort in a time of need/want.

Many find a sense of comfort and safety in their submission. If that 'punishement' sparked something in your mind that intensely reminded you of that sense of comfort, it makes sense that you'd enjoy it!

Then again, you could just be getting 'kinkier' ;)

Glad you talked it out, and got over a bit of a rough patch.

Status: offline 		not much to add... but congrats and also I ask a question or two... Is this your first birth? Pain levels during birth what was your experience from it. Was the pain there but secondary to the focus on the birth of your baby. Or was the pain a very intense focus for you? Your body went thru alot of chemical changes etc. But you also experienced some incredible pain that had a very distinct um pleasure to them... Just some random thoughts.

Hiya jadenth---

First, congrats on the baby -- as exhausting and frustrating as these times can be (for both of you), it truly is a special time i don't think many of us truly appreciate until just about the time they hit mid teens..lol.

i had 2 thoughts when i read your profile. The first is something i was taught a while ago..
"Feelings are neither right nor wrong, they just are. It's what we do with them that can get us into trouble."

my second thought is that by not explaining all of this to your Master you might be selling him short which i know it's an easy thing to do. i found it was easy to think i "protecting" him by not letting him into my thoughts or sharing my feelings, or like in your case, that what i need/want/crave might be either withheld or used against me (and yeah, i know that last part wasn't particularly healthy thinking on my part). There were time i found it difficult to remember that his ownership of me included all of me (feelings and thoughts especially), and that i had to trust what he did with that knowledge.

Hormones can make this an especially difficult time, along with sleep deprivation, and having a new little Dom/me on the premises that you can't always understand. my one suggestion is to trust in Your Master and to cut yourself some slack (and to sleep when the baby sleeps..lol).

Good luck..and hugs
jimini
