lilninotchka -> What would you do? (7/16/2006 8:27:59 PM)
A hypothetical situation: Master has slave for over a year, slave messes up. Master stops talking to slave. Does NOT release though...yes, the relationship is like that. Does slave then move on? Probably yes, but when? How long a wait would be appropriate? After the apologies with no response (not even an 'f*** you!'), what do you do? Keep in mind that this is probably a little deeper/more involved mentally than the average relationship (that's purely a guess, might be wrong, but not thinking so!) This probably has been discussed, but please answer anyway?

It is a difficult one to answer without a few more bits of information. Was the relationship real time, in person, online? I can only guess they were not living together. If there was a formal collaring i would think the slave should request release. Honestly to me this doesnt sound like it was a real M/s relationship, or perhaps there was something lacking in the relationship from the outset. i would love to hear more information to give a better answer. owned

I would agree that if this is a real life relationship with a tangible collar requesting release would be a good idea. In reality if you've come to an open forum and are asking when you should ditch someone that's left you in the lurch and is refusing contact...you've already been released.

enigmabrat -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 8:52:37 PM)
I dont handle beeing ignored well and it is a limit as far as punishment goes for me Im too sensative so if a Dom would ignore me as punishment or withdraw affection In would be gone

crouchingtigress -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 8:53:34 PM)
i would hope the submissive in your example leaves immediately, the "silent treatment"imo should only ever be used with clearly stated time frames and emergency access....anythign less is irresponsible.

Communication via telephone, email, occasionally chat and of course talking face-to-face. Not precisely a formal collaring, but an acceptance no less binding. If the request should go unanswered? How long to wait then for an answer?

ownedgirlie -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 9:11:10 PM)
How long as the Master been silent? Hours? Days? Weeks? Has he done this before? Was it an offense that had previously been communicated would get the slave released?

There needs to be honest open lines of communication as to what the exact circumstances are of a relationship. i would suggest if the length of time has been longer than in the past, if this is repeat behaviour, and there was no formal collar or consideration etc, it is time to begin your search again owned

Almost a month except for some issue unrelated to the relationship - that was short and to the point. He has for very short periods beeen uncommunicative in the past. Release for any offense was never an issue. Release was contingent only upon true desire to leave the relationship.

desertdancer -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 9:25:16 PM)
I honestly think it depends upon the couple, I can see why many subs/slaves would request a release or would choose to leave on their own. For me however, in the relationship I am in, although I would be crushed by being ignored, I would wait it out. I have battled a lot of demons to be with my Master, we've both had our own dragons to slay, immigration to fight, and our own darkness-es to trip us up. So for me, I could not give up on my Master. My wiring is to love him, if he told me today that we could not be together, I would still wait. Would I be unhappy, oh yes. Would I hurt and be in pain, yes, I'd feel pain beyond words. But it would hurt me much more to give up on the one I love and the work we've put into our relationship, so I would wait, even if it took weeks or years. Please, don't misunderstand, I am no doormat, and I know this answer has the potential to get me flamed for being weak for waiting it out and needing him so much. However, I answered from my heart, and thus am not offering advise to the OP, only telling how it would be for me. ~dancer

There was an informal ceremony of sorts, but that didn't actually involve a physical collar, so while it was not a collaring ceremony, it was an official (for them) agreement. Monogamy was never a queston or concern. He is married and she (his wife) is aware and attends when they get together/visit. This was all agreed upon in the beginning and none of that was a problem for any onvolved. While it may be time to move on, maybe it is not yet. How long would expect someone to wait in that situation before moving on? Edited because there were WAY too many quote: thingys in there!!

MrDiscipline44 -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 9:32:16 PM)
So he has been like this for a month. Fuck'em. Time to move on. I could see maybe a week. Two for a really horrendous crime. But a month is too far. Especially if he is giving the cold shoulder when he has to interact with you.

He has for very short periods beeen uncommunicative in the past. Release for any offense was never an issue. Release was contingent only upon true desire to leave the relationship. Has the slave actually asked what the Master's intentions are? To keep or release? To communicate again in the future? If this is a punishment? If so, were there answers? It seems Master had been somewhat communicative as opposed to totally withdrawing. I would be asking a lot of questions, myself. Going a month without speaking and no clear communication as to why or his intentions seems cruel to me. I can't answer the question for the slave in this scenario. At this point in my relationship with my Master, I am too tightly bound to him, and while I would whither away if he ever did that to me (I am certain he never would), I have no idea how long I would or could wait. I would probably just drive down there, show up and seriously beg.

If that were remotely doable, the begging situation would probably have been done also. Unfortunately, it isn't an option under the circumstances. Maybe you just did answer anyway - cruelty. Cruelty to critters!!! Where is the ACC (Association for Cruelty to Critters) when you need them!?

Caretakr -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 10:12:01 PM)
She had best just bite down, and ask him if he still holds a collar. And make it clear that no answer means no.

juliaoceania -> RE: What would you do? (7/16/2006 10:16:12 PM)
Been through this and I would not allow this situation again. I would release myself.

lilninotchka -> RE: What would you do? (7/17/2006 12:16:06 AM)
Thank you all for the opinions and replies. They were very helpful

BitaTruble -> RE: What would you do? (7/17/2006 12:53:45 AM)
As I would in any job, I would give a two week notice. A polite written request for communication with the caveat that if I didn't hear from him in some fashion within the two weeks, I would consider the relationship ended and my power and freedom returned to me to do as I desired. Celeste

mons -> RE: What would you do? (7/17/2006 2:42:19 AM)
