kiwisub12 -> RE: Can submission be taken back (12/3/2013 6:48:53 PM)
I find it amusing that my ex- gets butt hurt when the kids tell him that I don't talk about him. I loved him, I no longer love him. He doesn't keep any part of me. I loved my late dom with all my heart and soul, he died, and I am now engaged to a man I adore. Because I love my sweetie doesn't mean that I no longer love my late dom. My heart is infinite - I can love more than one person at a time, in more than one sort of relationship. I don't leave part of me behind, I take my loves with me. I am more with every person I love, not less.

There you go. I find it is easier to define when one thinks of how large of a capacity we have to love. Poly people talk about their ability to love many. Loving someone for life (or dominating/submitting) does not mean you can never love another when some part of your journey ends. quote: ORIGINAL: kiwisub12 I find it amusing that my ex- gets butt hurt when the kids tell him that I don't talk about him.

The love you give to each is different because we are different at different points in our lives. The fact that my mother died when my daughter was a newborn didn't mean that I could not lavish love on my daughter. I didn't have to stop loving her in order to also love her brother. Self actualized people don't become damaged half people when a relationship ends. They mourn, often very deeply, but they go fully through the grieving process. I'd have to say that the op who claims to still have a piece missing, did not go fully through the grieving process. And not having had the courage to feel all the pain does not make her someone who loves more deeply as she appears to believe.

quote: ORIGINAL: Shaded1 Sure :) Leave a piece of me behind - when the dynamic is no longer active but the connection you had to that person still exists strongly for you even if you move forward to another relationship. Feelings still remain (a bit like having your first boyfriend and never quite getting over him/her) perhaps there are areas of submission that you can give to others and felt only able to give to that one person. Hope that explains. I guess that has never happened to me. I've always been able to move on from past relationships without those feelings happening. Then again, I barely remember most of my past relationships. The only one I will say that has happened with was my deceased husband but we were childhood sweethearts and share a child together. And no, bdsm relationships do not require more trust. That's a myth. Believe me, I've given more trust to "vanilla" relationships than "d/s" ones. It had zilch to do with bdsm and everything to do with the man I was with.

~ Fast Reply ~ As for giving "mind, body and soul," - I'm of the belief I can't give my soul away, so it's not really a view I subscribe to. However, I have, in the past, given myself fully - as much as was possible for me to give, with as much love as I was able to give. I honestly felt I needed him. In fact, I remember once saying something along the lines of, "Without him you may as well drain the blood from my veins." And then he was gone. And one of the first things I did (after hyperventilating, panicking, and dealing with the shock) was to take ownership of my life back. I won't say it was easy, but it was necessary. He still came around, trying to dominate me, unfairly so, and all I could tell him was, "You don't get that anymore. You forfeited your right to that part of me." That took practice, but yes, I managed to fully take my submission back. It didn't belong to him anymore - he gave it up. And I could (and did) choose to not allow him access to that part of me anymore. I once didn't think it was possible, but I proved myself wrong.

I have been around the world of BDSM for some time now and have a fair amount of experience both online and in real time. My question today is - can submission be taken back once it is given in full. When a sub gives her heart mind and soul to Another, does a piece of her remain with the Dom when the dynamic changes? I discussed this with a friend on another site recently and I wonder what people here thought. The answer is unequivocal yes most definitely it could. But... When you put it in the context of a specifics relationship. That question is no longer valid or the answer The more appropriate question is ' can that person with draw their submission in that relationship?'. For some the answer would be yes.. For some the answer would be no. Secondly.... Any time we are in a relationship we will always have an affect on the other person regardless of the path said relationship takes. Just the experience of it can affect our choices in the future with regards to other relationships. But whether that affect has a controlling affect is another matter all together.

And very possibly hitting the nail very close to dead centre!

NullHypothesis -> RE: Can submission be taken back (12/6/2013 6:42:52 AM)
"Submit" is a verb that occurs only in the present. A submissive is free to end a relationship just as a Dominant is.

Missokyst -> RE: Can submission be taken back (12/6/2013 12:33:20 PM)
Don't recall ever saying that a submissive cannot end the relationship. I ended all my romantic relationships, not necessarily wisely. I just stated that for some relationships, even ending does not mean that the urge to continue the behavior of submission sometimes stays on the plate. The only way to stop that is to stop indulging it. I can love and not express it. I can still desire to submit but suppress that desire. It is survival. Oh... and I am not a verb.
