The ONLY person who can train a girl to serve Me is.............. ME!

If I don't have time to train her I wouldn't take her on. If You take up a girls submission then You take up the RESPONSIBILITY'S that go with it.




krikket -> RE: Body Language (9/21/2009 5:17:51 PM)

i once had a boss who was like that.  She would tell me to do something and then list all the ways i couldn't do it, but not tell me how.  It took me a while to figure out that was usually because she had no idea herself what exactly she wanted.  If i gave her a list of people in Excel, she wanted it in Word, if i separated their first and last name (for ease in sorting) she wanted them in one cell.  If i only put 3 spaces between Sincerely yours, she wanted 4, but 3 if i left 4 spaces.  She didn't like the way i filed, even though i once was the only one at a post vocational post high school who passed a State Higher Education inspection. Even though i have a couple of certifications in Microsoft Office that wasn't enough either.  i finally dawned on me that not only did she now know what she wanted, there was no way i was ever going to do anything "right enough"for her.  While i'm not a mind reader, i finally figured out that she really wasn't ever going to be happy with my work because she wanted another attorney to boss around, not an executive assistant.  Once i reached that conclusion my decision was easy.  i handed in my resignation. 

i'm not saying that your Master wants another sub, but if he doesn't know what he wants or needs then there's absolutely no way you're going to be able to serve him in a matter that makes him happy.  You're not a mind reader any more than he is.

Good luck.

I'm gonna say the same exact thing I said on your speech thread....
He sounds like a clueless douche. Why are you wasting your time with this guy?
The anxiety you're feeling is not what submission is supposed to feel like.

This one Cmailed you, hoping that is ok.


Received and answered.

Does he require you to use third party speech with others? Because if you don't have to, then please don't. You do it well but it is still stilted to read. It inhibits conversation and communication instead of facilitating it. Which I get the feeling, is why he wants it so he doesn't have to communicate since it is a skill he does not possess.




sweetsub1957 -> RE: Body Language (9/21/2009 7:21:08 PM)

appropriate body language.....hmmm.  Appropriate according to Him means, to me, that He needs to teach you what's appropriate.  What's appropriate according to my Sir might not be what your Sir wants............

When Sir mentioned body language, this one was thrown for a loop at what she could be doing incorrectly there.
I'm gonna go out on a wild hare here and suggest you ask him what you're doing incorrectly. Sheesh. Communicate. Otherwise, you'll both fumble around in the dark.

Believe me guys, this one has asked Sir...

Edited to add.... and did not get a true response from Sir so this one turned to the Forums here to see if she could possibly figure this out on her own, something that maybe she was missing.
And by the way, if he can't tell you exactly what you're doing wrong and help you correct it, it is his failure, not yours.  He's giving you 10% of the information and then getting upset when you guess wrong.


Seriously, this is like the third thread you've posted along these lines. If I were you, I'd be very frustrated.




dreamerdreaming -> RE: Body Language (9/21/2009 8:10:56 PM)

OP, I refer you to another thread here, where you may see something of yourself, and where you may find some help- "Communication":

The basics? Certain things that every sub/slave should or should not do?  Or that likely every Master will appreciate? This one would truly like input on this subject as it has just been brought to my attention that apparently it is something this one is lacking in...appropriate body language.


For the most part there is no right otr wrong way, it is whatever each individual dominant desires. I think that in this case the dominant does not know what he wants specifically, or he doesn't really care to engage in some of it because it does take up ones's free time and does require a bit of work to show the slave what it is he desires




leadership527 -> RE: Body Language (9/21/2009 8:26:37 PM)

TO ME, body language falls into the category of "surface" and so is not of interest to me. More accurately, those non-verbal cues are reflections of what's going on inside. Faking them is not possible. Carol truly respects me deep in her heart. Like all things, that inner feeling bleeds out in everything she says and does. If she did not respect me, no amount of body language would convince me that she did. Conversely, if she does, then no particular body language is required -- it'd be everywhere.

So I guess I'd suggest you look inside yourself not outside. Then again, I have no idea what your master is looking for so I could be totally wrong.

edited to add: *blinks* He doesn't have time to train you? That's a lot like a golfer saying he doesn't have time to mess around with hitting that stupid white ball all over the place. With that updated comment, my answer really turns into, "Give up, you can't win."




DavanKael -> RE: Body Language (9/21/2009 10:57:09 PM)

I'd also add, following Jeff's aptly stated: "give up, you can't win": think more of yourself and demand someone with whom a relationship of mutuality can be achieved.

You're preaching to the converted here..

It's tedious and dull, not to mention faintly insulting,  to be informed that you're doing something *wrong* by someone that is too busy, or *too* anything, to inform you why and how, in an adult relationship of any sort.

Even my 6yr old grandson can manage to say * Nanna, that's not right because....*

Body Language is more than just doing things for your Dominant.  It's more than just the protocol posturing that comes with submissive behavior.  It is non-verbal communication, and you can say a lot without actually speaking a word to someone.  Movie/TV actors and theatrical performers utilize this skill to convey an obvious message when they are doing their craft.  Even those mimes rely on non-verbal communication (resisting the urge to smack now...), and they totally rely on this form of communication.  We use body language everyday in our lives and some of don't know we are using it to certain extents. 

An example of this is when two people are talking and one of them is listening with both arms crossed, and perhaps a slightly strained look on their face.  Their body language is saying:  "I'm not comfortable with  what is being said here".  The arms folded, say that the person is "closed", and the face tells it all by confirming the closed posture.  When one person is confronted with a lie, the liar may speak controlled, but the face-muscles will undoubtedly contract, and there might be a nervous twitch, and the eyes may look straight ahead to the person confronting.  More applicable to BDSM, say a Dominant tells you to do something, and instead of doing it straightforwardly, you hesitate...drop your shoulders slightly and sigh...(optional eye rolling).  What does that say to the Dominant?




SubOnlyForHim -> RE: Body Language (9/22/2009 5:50:03 AM)

Sir does not make me use third person speech except in writing to Him. It makes me slow down and think about what I am saying while I am typing so that's a plus. I can type 80 words a minute so having to slow down makes me have to stop and think about how to write, so I am also thinking about things that much longer before I say them and sometimes...yeah sometimes that helps keep me out of trouble!
=) 

What I'm learning....or feeling, from everyone on here, is that Sir is trying to "break me down" and somehow He thinks that will help? To ensure I am more dependent on Him for my existence? To ensure I won't leave Him? I want badly to scream and yell and tell Him how foolish this is, how foolish He is being. Sir has had my submission/devotion/love for 2 years... a year and a half BEFORE He Demanded it. He doesn't need to cause me a mental breakdown to get it.  It's always been there. I will keep doing things the way I do them, always with His needs first. I am sure now that I've exhausted all advice that I can get from others on how to behave the way I should. I am doing my part.

I thank you all for showing me that I am NOT as crazy and untrained as I've been led to beleive. I have always felt naturally submissive in relationships and feel that my natural submission has to be far better than any "training".




SubOnlyForHim -> RE: Body Language (9/22/2009 7:35:38 AM)

It all just came to me in an epiphany.

Sir responds much better to me if I am quieter. Sir talks to me more when I go a day without speaking to Him. I am too loving, too eager, too devoted, too everything....

*Sigh*

OMG why do I even bother? [8|]

OP, please go visit the thread I've referenced above (post #27).

You need to examine not just what is going on, but why.




SubOnlyForHim -> RE: Body Language (9/22/2009 7:50:51 AM)

I did go to the other thread. I did read it. I understand completely what you are saying. I am not ready to give up...we have been through, put EACH OTHER through some pretty nasty crap. Our breakdown in communication happens occasionally, not quite as bad as this usually, but I do feel as if maybe I am trying too hard at times. Maybe if I just back up and just be me..the natural sub/slave that I've always been to Him, maybe it's the pressure... There's only one way to know!

Not quite. I think you may have missed the whole gist of the responses if that's what you got from them.




SubOnlyForHim -> RE: Body Language (9/22/2009 8:01:27 AM)

Ok, maybe I should say between the replies of how everyone feels Sir is treating me badly/wrong and the way Sir IS treating me, (oh and that I have a brain...overworked, but it's still mine)  that is the feeling I am getting?

I did point out to Sir that I was hearing that the answers to alot of my questions could only be answered by Him. His immediate response was "I see" but it was time for Sir to go to work so the conversation had to end there....Just when I thought I was getting somewhere!!!! That darn clock and pesky work thing!

In my defense....I have been up for 3 days and it does not look like sleep will come anytime soon.




dreamerdreaming -> RE: Body Language (9/22/2009 8:12:16 AM)

OMG! Please try to get some rest! [8|]




SubOnlyForHim -> RE: Body Language (9/22/2009 8:14:34 AM)

Yeah Yeah I'll sleep when I'm dead. This is "normal" for me. I rest...I just do not sleep. *Sigh*
