My slavery ends when my desire to please myself (in an absolute sense) becomes greater then my desire to please him (in an absolute sense). If pleasing myself is more important than pleasing him, I am obviously not his slave any more, seeing that there is no legal context in which he can force me to be his slave against my will. If my desire to please him is more important than pleasing myself, I will react obediently and pleasing in the end, no matter the struggles it would take to get there, because losing him wouldn't be worth not having to ....... (insert whatever unpleasantness you'd like). This also als counts for him becoming abusive, or unstable, or what have you as well, and is incidentally the reason I think many abused women stay with their partners. Even though he is abusive, staying with him is more important than whatever else is out there (and thus in a sense, staying with him is "worth" the abuse). The perception that nothing out there is worth leaving him for is obviously often a wrong one, but it is still that perception that keeps them there. The same thing would very well apply to a slave, and thus, a slave would be obedient until (from a Western society standpoint) their perception is "cured" and pleasing themselves would again become more important than pleasing the Master. I wish you well, ishy
