CaringandReal -> What totally and completely does it for you? (1/14/2011 8:06:50 PM)

Hey submissives, slaves, submits (counterpart to dominates?), bottoms, masochists, the kept, and other below-sorts,

I was wondering. What experience, fetish, desire, need, activity, mental environment, physical characteristic, emotional experience, personality, or other thing absolutely hooks you, makes you feel "Ok, this is it. I give up. This totally does it for me." In case this is not clear, here is a rephrasing of the quesiton, What most addicts you to your version of submission?

I've been thinking about this lately. It was hard to choose one thing. There are so many things I like and always want more of. It's still largely theoretical for me, but in applying past experiences and attitudes with current thought I do believe for me it's fear. In the right circumstances, this experience is pure unadulterated emotional heroin for me. (It might be more appropriate to liken the experience of fear to a psychedelic, but I am trying to get across the concept of dependency here.) A close second for me is enforced servitude, i.e. something that I no longer freely choose. Its advantage is that it can be maintained over long periods of time, wheres fear tends to be a transitory emotion: you can't sustain large amounts of it for a lenghty time without going a little or a lot mad. And once you go mad, you may not be feeling fear anymore.

So, what addicts you? What makes you willing to do anything, absolutely anything, for more?

(And of course, those of you who frown on addiction--of any sort--or who are never addicted to anything are welcome to say youre piece, as well. I'm not particularly picky. I just like to know what others think.)

Wow, I was having the hardest time thinking of just one thing that really did it for me every.single.time, but you nailed it. Fear. Or more precisely the heightened sense of awareness that comes with just the right amount of fear. All of the things that take my breath away have that as a common denominator.
A close second is loss of control. I'm a control freak. Getting it away from me. or getting me to the point where I give it away willingly, is a beautiful, nigh unto spiritual, thing.
Great. Now I need to go kneel or something...

Loss of control.

For me it can best be described as a sense of peace, intimacy, and security. It's that place where I no longer have to think, analyze, or make decisions for myself; where I have no responsibility for what happens because I have no control; where I know I will be guided and directed and be safe; where I can express my affection and sexuality in the way most natural for me. At its peak, it's like I'm living in a little world that is just me and him, and he's god of it.

What I'm describing is a feeling, however, rather than the flesh and bones reality of a situation. How much it's expressed at any given moment can vary enormously, and how it looks and what is done can vary just as much, but it's the feeling itself that makes me seek something structured along D/s lines.

As for fear, it does not work for me - at all. In short durations it makes me sad, stressed, and clingy, in longer durations it makes me angry, depressed, and combative. Neither are very good for the kind of D/s dynamic I enjoy. In order to submit I need to truly feel that nothing really bad will happen, even if it seems like I've put myself in harms way.



LillyBoPeep -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/14/2011 10:52:21 PM)

fear to some degree, but also knowing that i can't win. i really like physically dominant people. i'm usually attracted to men who are obviously bigger and undeniably stronger than i am. i like knowing that he could literally put me down if need be. a user on Fetlife wrote a great journal about the predator/prey relationship that i could really relate to.
but yeah, i really respond to physically dominant men.



Kaliko -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/15/2011 3:25:36 AM)

I crave the mental leap my mind has to make in order to get over myself and do what I'm told. It's a challenge to put aside how I'm to be in public and twist myself around to be on my knees, responsive to commands, and yes, a little bit fearful of consequences. I enjoy the mental struggle with myself more than anything physical and the feeling of release - of submission - when I do let a particular thought/fear/standard go not only in action but in my emotions and thoughts. I can do whatever I'm told, sure. But to accept it, understand it, be okay with it, want it, enjoy it, let go of shame and give it all to him - that's the hurdle in my head that I like to have to fight myself to get over.


Well, that and cock worship. LOVE it.

A yank of the hair and quick slap of my face. I'm instantly in the proper headspace no matter if I was laughing or giggling seconds before. It's like a light is turned on and I can focus on the dominant/top solely.



DesFIP -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/15/2011 5:37:02 AM)

His focus on me. I'm addicted to his attention. Without it, I get pissy and feel taken for granted.

Activity speaking, him biting my neck. He's been known to wait till I'm in the middle of saying something, and do that, and then laugh as my train of thought goes right out the window. Wrapping his hand around my neck, front or back. Putting his arm around my throat and dragging me back against him. Yum.

It's really hard to describe... sort of an "anti-humiliation" thing.  His reinforcement of my own worth and esteem, while asserting his dominance over me.  Essentially, it is pride of possession.



littlewonder -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/15/2011 7:48:01 AM)

what addicts me?

Love....pure, human, utterly falling into his eyes and voice, wanting to be with him 24/7, stay with him always, love.

He tells me how much he loves me, he shows it in his everyday actions and words.

That's what does it for me each and every time.

#1 and #3, #2 is not something I'm overly concerned about

There has been numerous ways to bring me into this mindset of saying/thinking...

"Ok, this is it. I give up. This totally does it for me."


The one constant though, the dynamic that will most quickly bring me to this state, is rope. Once I get a bit of rope wrapped around my body I immediately revert into submissive mode. It just flips that switch in my head.

LOL! Did you have fun kneeling? :D You know, your kneeling is now making me want to kneel. Maybe it is catching. :/

I liked the way you put that "...the heightened sense of awareness that comes with just the right amount of fear." I have noticed that heightened awareness many times, not always with fear, but often. Sometimes I experience it as a cool breeze blowing through my mind, but what's always true is that you are right there, right now, in the moment, aware of everything, no escape into a fantasy possible. But I also like fear part as well--as long as it doesn't kill me! :p

Edited to add:

Wow, really eloquent and to the point answers, everyone! I can relate to all of them (even to OSF's :p) so I am not going to do individual replies this time. But I did want to say I am really enjoying reading these. You're reminding me of feelings l love as well.

hard to believe right now...though funnily I imagined that reply to be from you, when I have seen it in the preview [:)]

sorry OP...can't that much contribute to your topic...



osf -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/15/2011 6:49:45 PM)

I remember my first fire fight as though it was yesterday, adrenalin has a way of making things vivid



LPslittleclip -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/15/2011 6:58:02 PM)

the one thing that brings me to my knees anytime or place is Mistress bitting the back of my neck. as far as making me want to submit its more of just being able to be at Her feet, the feeling of comfort of being totaly owned and not have any demands beyond my Mistress



UniqueRaven -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/15/2011 7:18:50 PM)

Power.

To be specific, financial, political, physical, social, mental - power.

Knowing that no matter what I do, that I have no choice but to give in...as he has complete power over me, and one way or another, he WILL get what he wants.

Yes, that's hot. Brings me to the floor at his toes of his wingtips every time.



81song -> RE: What totally and completely does it for you? (1/16/2011 7:39:22 AM)

I guess the 1st thing come to mind is leather and the smell.
