ORIGINAL: puella amayos, You always say the most wonderfully provocative things! I do think it is important to remember that both partners in this relationship are flawed and will err. If there is more than just the desire to have your immediate needs met, I think that there is plenty of room for error, and from that growth and a deeper bonding. Without that, there is usually only failure and loss. Hey puella, i like amayos' posts as well; but i miss His old avatar...so sexy, lmao. Anyway; i think i may not have been clear. I mean behavior: temper tantrums, etc......not merely experiencing negative emotions. Pinkee, I don't think it's possible to talk about one without the other, actually. It's sort of like attempting to discuss the entire function of the leg without addressing the crucial joint of the knee. It is my observation and belief that it is often the ineffectual management of our negative emotions through which temper tantrums arise. A red-blind rage (referred to in psych terms as "Intermittent Explosive Disorder") and the process within that tills fertile ground for this should surely be guarded against and neutralized within oneself. It usually does not reflect well upon a Master (or anyone, for that matter) to be so inferior in dealing with stress. Instead, extracting a point through just and even passionate punishment is appropriate and productive. P.s. Thanks for your comment about the previous avatar.
