ORIGINAL: osf i realize the submissive mind works differently but still has anyone ever thought about why they should be submissive when the mood may not be there and what was your thinking? In the simplest of terms, because it pleases him, and it fulfills me to please him. Put it this way - let's say he forgot about a really important meeting and woke up at 4AM stressed about suddenly remembering, and his best shirt was wrinkled and needed ironing, and he had to gather all this things together to prep for it, AND shower, eat, etc. He wakes me up, telling me he needs his shirt ironed and breakfast made. Would I prefer to sleep? Maybe. But even more important to me is that he has as little stress as possible (that's part of what love is) and to jump up at the ready and help him out. So you bet I'm going to wipe the sleep out of my eyes and start ironing and cooking at 4AM. You bet I'm going to do whatever it takes to ease as much of his worry as possible, so he can give a successful presentation and feel good about it. That's love. That's service. That's taking care of the man who takes such good care of me. There really IS no "I don't feel like it". The day I don't feel like submitting to him is the day I should rethink being in this relationship. It's just not a concept I understand all that well, because whatever it is I do for him is for the good of our relationship, and THAT comes before anything I may or may not be in the mood for at a particular moment. Think of it this way - I don't want to go to the dentist in about 15 minutes, but I have to, because of a problem that needs fixing. But I'm going to go, without even questioning it, because overall it's the right thing to do and I'm better off for it. I don't want to go to work after that, but I'm going to, because overall I enjoy getting a pay check and having the luxuries that I do. The big picture is what's important here. Not whining about how doing a particular thing might be a drag.
