I find myself coming back to this thread over and over. I'm compelled to answer, but I don't know that I quite have my finger on the question. lol I don't think I could have a D/s-M/s relationship if I didn't know for sure that 24/7 (fulltime, live-in, choose your word) status was impending. I'm not saying I would want a slave attached to my hip every minute of every day, but I don't know how long I could tolerate weeks away from one another, especially over such a long distance. If it was just that my sub/slave lived a few miles down the road, it might be different. But even then, I would want to be setting living together as the goal. Anything otherwise, to me, feels like a part-time thing. Not that there's a lack of comitment per say, but more it would feel like there's a lack of wanting to move forward together. I understand that certain jobs (like trucking) require that people be away for lengths of time like that. I just don't think I personally could handle it. To put it in vanilla terms, weeks apart from one another on a constant basis would feel like we were just "dating". I don't know if that in any way whatsoever answered your question. But at least I can quit feeling compelled to keep hitting the 'respond' button for a while. lol
