ORIGINAL: lovelyesme thanks for all the answers, suggestions, and support. Do not be misled-He is a loving father, a safe one, but at times, clueless. i know too well how easily parents can injure adolescent spirits. i would never hesitate to stand up for my wee ones between even moderate emotional or physical harm. i was/am curious how to blend these familiar parts-Mamma Bear with new ones-submissive-so getting feedback is extremely helpful. Thanks. i am sure i'll have many others.... esme There is a lot of room in a D/s dynamic for respectfully bringing up this type of thing. My Dominant is not perfect, however I'm not interested in letting him know that I notice that. When I have something to say or to offer to a situation, I say it - in a respectful and circumspect manner. (True story) Him: Let's do a 100 mile bike ride this Saturday! Me: Sounds fun, however I've only ever ridden up to 50 miles with you in our past rides, do you think I could handle something like that and still enjoy it? I get so little time with you, I'd hate to spend it with leg cramps throwing up in the bushes. Him: Let's do a 50 mile bike ride this Saturday and if things are going well, we'll go for a new record and do a couple more! Me: Gosh, great idea! I'll pack sandwiches and get our emergency kit ready Friday night- if you think of anything else we'll need call me and I'll grab it before heading up there Sat. I'm not interested in making him look bad, after all I picked him. I view my job in our relationship as that of being his executive assistant. If I don't assist whenever I can, I'm selling our relationship short. He will not lead as effectively without my input. I have a choice as to how to format the input and I try to do it unobtrusively, kindly, respectfully.
