ORIGINAL: sunshinemiss The question in that thread was about the dynamic. I, for one, do not think that wiitwd is merely something physical. I do believe that our mindset and our communication methods are inherently a part of this. Discussions of how to do something mechanical bore me. It's like playing tic tac toe. There are only so many moves you can make. Same with the mechanics of doing stuff, safety issues, etc. As I stated earlier, they are A + B = C. However, how we do something emotional, the mental side of things, is what interests, intrigues, and draws in me. Other people are different. For them it's all physical. That's cool. However, considering all the emotional wrangling, communication difficulties, boundary setting, and abuse vs bdsm issues that come up ( including but not limited to pleasing another person, being obedient, etc.)... Discussions about leaving a relationship and how that is different in this context are to me serious. There have been two personal threads just recently on this very topic. They have both revolved around the mental aspects of wiitwd and how the leaving is more difficult / different than other relationships. As I stated in that other thread, I think this absolutely can be different for some people. You don't agree. It's all the same song to you. That's cool. We will just have to agree to disagree here. best, sunshine I feel similarly.
