ORIGINAL: northernsiren Last night was my very first screw up. Sir left His nipple clamps at my house, and asked me to bring them to Him a few days later. He cautioned me that they bend easily, and to be careful. I put them in a special fabric bag all their own, and then that bag in a backpack along with my other things and thought I was doing well to be attentive of them, and He would be proud. A few hours later He asked me to retrieve them. I presented them to Him in the bag, thinking I would be praised for my care. He took them out, and one of them was bent. I never could have anticipated the way it made me feel. Awful, terrible, I cried and cried, to the point where He took me to bed and held me, talking to me sweetly and lovingly, right away knowing that any punishment He gave me could never make me feel worse than I already did. I am getting weepy just thinking about it! I just felt so bad having let Him down, and damaged His property. He forgives me, and asked how I would prevent it from happening next time, and I knew right away. I know screw ups will happen despite my best efforts to be His good girl. I am hoping I can learn how to handle this with more grace than I did though. I am surprised by the intensity of my reaction myself. Do these things happen with your subs, and if so, do you try to encourage them to be less emotional about it? How? How would you handle this? I think everything He did was perfect, indeed, I beat myself up inwardly so much, I could barely stand it... Many thanks for responses, they are deeply appreciated... I have run into the same kind of situation. The last time it happened when I later brought it up to Him, he explained that it was a teaching moment... that I am going to screw up and if the lesson had not come from this, it would have been from something else. We are perfectly imperfect and we are going to make mistakes. The important thing is that we learn from them and do our best...until we have our next teaching moment. Lather, rinse, repeat.
