ORIGINAL: ElizabethAnne Hello Lafayette, Quite honestly NO one but the two of them know the entire story of their relationship. She admitted she was wrong, she misbehaved, for that she is to be commended. What I have seen over and over on the boards, is usually only one side of the story is played out. The other person doesn't comment, or says little. And in almost every case, the person wanting validation for x type behavior. And sure enough there are plenty of people to come along and pat someone on the hand, and tell them how awful her Master behaved, and how she didn't deserve to be treated like that. When in fact, unless a person is there and knows first hand, all that is known is one side. I am sure you have heard it said, there are three sides to every story, his - hers and the truth, which lays somewhere in the middle. As far as taking her at her word.....would there be a reason not to believe her? Elizabeth I'm very familiar with the 3 sides to every story, for quite some time I made my living figuring out that third side, and was quite good at it. So is there a reason you shouldn't take her at her word? Since you only had that one post, yes. As I said earlier, just reading what other people posted, indicated that something else was going on. When someone posts looking for advice on line, of course we are only going to get one side. But really, at that moment in time, that is the only side that is needed. When someone posts how they can't stop crying, you don't make the kind of insensitive statement you made. It serves no purpose. Apparently, you seem to be among those who think all dominants are wonderful and a submissive should always take responsibility. Have you ever thought about the women who are abused? They learn over time to think that everything is "their fault." Would you make the same statement then? In the other thread, had you read it, or even the other posts here, you might have been able to figure out that this "dominant" was certainly planting ideas in her head about her being wrong all the time. She admitted she "misbehaved," but part of that is because that is what he told her all the time. Sorry, but I find the fact that you couldn't be bothered to read anything and get more information, but instead felt the need to congratulate her for taking responsibility for her relationship ending to be callous and uncalled for.
