Hello Ladies, I would like to bring up another thing... There are at times actions that go beyond habit and are in fact addiction. Sometimes it is not about the will to obey, it is about the ability to obey. I'm going to put this in a different context. You have a submissive who has an eating disorder. You don't realize it is a *disorder*, neither does he. It just is what he does. You order him to not eat sweets. At some point during the day, he pops candy in his mouth and not until after does he realize what he's done. He's disobeyed, but he didn't realize or he couldn't stop himself. On some level he's just realizing what a huge problem it is. But hey, at least he became aware which is more than he was a week, a month, a year ago. You can tell him and tell him and tell him, but his issue is bigger than what can be handled by D/s alone. You wanting him to do better isn't going to fix it. You ordering him to stop won't fix it. It's more than all that. There are two schools of thought ... Flooding and foot in the door. Flooding is having him (back to your example) touch and touch and touch until he's sick of touching... and the other, foot in the door, is stopping slowly, a little bit at a time. Of course support from other people, therapeutic, etc. is helpful. According to the OP, this is the last thing to be an issue which could be an addiction. There are Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous groups for people that have this issue. Just a thought. Best, sunshine
