Calling someone immature and then saying they should have been a spot on a kleenex. Hmmmmm, If you are going to call someone immature, at least attempt to be mature yourself.

Anyway, So, what exactly is wrong with the advice. If someone screws you over, you screw them over. I guess, your advice would be if someone screws you over, hold your ankles. hmmm.

Predators, frauds, posers, and foreployers; hope that all the submissives have your beliefs regarding a "master". As long as submissives don't expect the same honest disclosure as is required of them, the situation that you refer, that generated your question will continue. Ultimately, whether it takes years, as is the case you refer, or days; the poser will show their true nature and we'll see more threads about being "hurt" and lied to.

The question if I would I release beth if she went through my "personal" email is based upon a false reality. I have no "personal" email or files. When I say that people contemplating a relationship should be naked in front of each other, it goes for BOTH parties; including and perhaps especially the Master. If a slave doesn't think they have seen their Master naked they have the potential of the same negative result. Is it an issue? Just look at all the posts here by submissives asking for suggestions concerning a problem or issue with their Master's behavior. They ask nameless/faceless strangers for anonymous advice when the answer they need is lying in bed next to them. If that person responds to every question or request to communicate by hiding behind "Master's privilege"; maybe now they'll consider the example you are referring to ask why it is so.

When address trust and honesty issues the parties in a Master/slave existence must have equal status. Private emails, or the need for private emails from either indicate that trust issues still exist. But let's say even with all my representations beth discovers a Merc secret existence or secret profile seeking her replacement, it would be me that caused our relationship to fail, not her. The manner of discovery would not be material.

this slave has stated before on other threads that her perspective related to this issue is this:  it is impossible for Master to "cheat", lie, be unfaithful, go behind her back, keep things from her unjustly, etc. because from HER point of view, this slave is a posession of Master, not the other way around.  this slave does not REQUIRE complete disclosure from Him as to His whereabouts, His activities, His proclivities, His past, etc. If He decided to confide in or involve His slave in any of those things, that is GRAVY, not a requirement and certainly not a mutually agreed upon stipulation or else...
 
this slave did not and never will demand or have to "figure out" His secrets...passwords or otherwise...this slave's perspective of our relationship dynamic prohibits it, as that would not be conduct becoming THIS slave.  on the other hand, this slave is completely open to Him, there is nothing secret, nothing hidden from Master......one sided?  from this slave's perspective, not at all.

I feel obligated to point a few things out.  Like JessieMe, I have no idea what is unmentionable about a child.  But, I too, may be unaware of some rule or standard.
