Personally, I think it's rather selfish of a Master to keep a slave whose needs he can't/won't/chooses not to fulfill. And yes, I have been in this situation and am speaking from experience. I had a gal once who liked extreme breath play, as in turning blue and passing out. I like edge play, and I like playing hard, but I also won't go to jail for anything (This was around the time of the preppy murder case, where his defense was the couple was involved in hard core sex including breath play that got outta hand) so that's a bit further than I care to go. When we started playing together, her fetish was still nascent, but as the intensity of our interactions grew, so did her desire to push boundaries, and envelopes. It happens, people change in relationships, as do their needs/wants/desires. The question I have to ask myself is whether a place can be found that is mutually acceptable to both parties. In the case of the breath play gal, I couldn't, so, after a lot of thought and talking, I set her free. On the flip side, I am in a relationship now with a lovely piece of meat. She's terrific in almost every way, but I like to dish out a bit more than she can take. As I am a really hard core player, this happens to me kinda frequently and I've learned to deal with it.In this case, I just shifted gears a bit, went from hard core pain play into different levels of D/S, moved into some serious mind games and strict levels of control and ownership. Now I'm happy, she's acceptably miserable (Laughs) and things are wonderful. It's really not that difficult, as long as both parties communicate, are willing to be a bit flexible, communicate, and did I mention communicate.
