For me, I'd be annoyed enough by the "silent treatment" to not want him back.  Throwing the temper tantrum in the first place wasn't good either, but if he'd thought things through and come back and talked sensibly, then we might have been able to work things out.  Personally, I think that someone who was that selfish and tight-fisted isn't someone I'd want to be involved with in the first place.

UPDATE: the person in question came to my house this morning to talk. he came by unannounced, which from day one was a rule NOT to do. I heard what he had to say since I assumed that i was getting an apology. Not even close. He stated that he felt it was wrong that i asked him to pay a portion for the cross since he has never paid before and he has no intention to start now. He also said that he deserves an apology for even suggesting he pay anything for the cross, as well as an apology for not even bothering to call him after he left and that once i say sorry, we can continue where we left off, provided that i dont ask for any of his money again. i wanted to laugh inside, but instead i told him that I do not want to continue our relationship, because his perceptions of how things work in the real world have been warped. he doesn't deserve my time nor any other domme's time if he believes thats how things should be. he left off in a huff- again. i don't care to deal with anybody who can be that selfish.

The cupcakes were a dead giveaway. I'm glad the situation has been resolved. Best of luck.

I hate this old adage but it's true..."You don't value what you don't earn."

He didn't value your time and energy because he didn't have an investment in it.

Sorry things ended up this way. I'm glad to hear you kept your boundaries and your cool.

it's too bad it's inappropriate to say that when he can't respond eh?

i'm not the least bit sorry this is how it ended, not after he showed his true feelings towards me. if he believes it alright to outright disrespect somebody and their household, he deserves to be dropped. i'm going to buck this up to a learning expirence and call it a day.

And you have missed the post, where she said, her bf doesn't want her sub to be taking her on very  dates,  buying her gifts, and doing all that finacial type doting on her,  Bf feels that's his job and for sub to do so is stepping on the bf's toes and into territory a sub isn't welcome to step into.

I don't think anyone has actually suggested that the sub ought to be spending money "left and right"... but the fact that in three years he's only bought her cupcakes for a birthday, and taken her to dinner once does seem to indicate to me that he could do a whole lot more spending before becoming even close to spending money "left and right..."

I get the impression that if there were a scale, with "totally tight fisted bastard" being 1 and "Total money pig" at 1000, this chap is .... well let's be generous and say "a four or five..."

Now you've completely lost me.

You complain about "so many people being upset that MissA's sub doesn't spend money left and right", then when asked you can't actually provide an example. Instead you refer to a "couple of people who mentioned the cakes". I try to make the point that buying dinner and cupcakes is about as far as it can be from "spending money left right and centre"

The point I was trying to make diplomatically is that you don't actually have a point to make.

sheesh

Again why does someone have to spend lots of money on someone to show they are devoted to them? Perhaps its simply not part of their dynamics. And I dont see her submissive asking for a free ride. That is a bit of a dramatization IMO.


He wanted her to buy a $500 cross so that she could use it on him.  He would not contribute towards the cost.  That's not just a free ride, it's buying the whole damn limousine. 

Uh....no.  Not happening.  If you want your partner to buy an expensive toy and use it on you, then you should be prepared to take some responsibility for the cost of your fun.  Doesn't matter whether you're the dom or the sub, the guy or the girl.

You have me confused with Daddies inked slut.

SHE was the one commenting about how upset people were about him not spendin money on her, and I, toppingfrmbottom, pointed out Ms A and her bf didn't want the sub spending money on her with gifts and dinners out.

There is no such rule. But this is something best discussed up front - if he hasn't paid for anything before now, you've set him up to resist.

FR: He sounds like an immature twit. I'm sure there will be things about him you will miss, but this guy has some serious growing up to do before being in any kind of relationship, let alone d/s.

i was to understand he became upset and left over it. That was what my comment was in refrence of. Of course if all are happy that's what matters. But if Master asked me to pay for a thing i had asked for i would be fine with it overall,its for O/our use. he makes good money as was told,doesn't make much sense to not want to give to the Dominant. Best of luck with the cross,may Y/you all enjoy ~ jewels

Wow, sorry to hear that things worked out this way, M.A. 

I'm also sorry that we were seemingly at odds during this entire conversation.  But his behavior just wasn't consistent with what I perceived to be "submissive" behavior.  That's why I kept emphasizing how all of the subs in the conversation all seemed to be in agreement that he wasn't acting submissive.  As you described his behaviors, warning bells kept going off in my mind, but you didn't seem to be hearing them.  I was trying to get you to see what seemed obvious to me.

I'm glad that he revealed his true colors to you in a way that was undeniable.  However, I am sorry to hear that a 3-year relationship has come to an end.

BTW, you have mail on the other side.
