When I first started out, I began by craving something somewhat similar, the total control aspect of a bdsm relationship. After getting involved in my first live-in experience, I began to see how much work it is to be "on" at least a large percentage of the time. To be honest, it seemed like it was somewhat exhausting to her. She was also working pro domme sessions practically every day, so that was exhausting her as well. As it turned out, I wasn't really all that much of a benefit to her. I was just too new to understand or even see that. Since then, I've been involved in more "real" life experiences where I remember what attracted me to this desire in the first place. I desire to be an asset TO her and not a burden that's pursuing my own particular fetishistic desires. What I have discovered is that sometimes a woman actually takes great pleasure in pursuing fantasies that she knows really turn me on, especially if I devote the majority of my time to making her happy in whatever way is possible. Since then, I've come to savor the experience of being there for an owner I serve and relish every pleasure that comes as part of the relationship as well. An example: While as a live-in during my last relationship, I knew that my Mistress was busy and overworking herself practically to death. No matter what kind of input I put in, that wasn't going to change. I came to accept that. However, when she was done working for the day (she was a professional dominant), I did everything possible to not act as one of those do me submissives that needs the dominant's attention 24/7. I learned to anticipate the needs she had by simple osmosis of being there all the time. I then started to look into things I could do to anticipate what I believed she would want, and I went about doing those sorts of things without ever turning around and jumping up and down and making noise to the effect of "look what I did...look what I did!". Instead, I chugged on ahead, doing things that would make her day easier without her having to order me around to do the things for her, or even worse, to have to do them herself because she was one of those perfectionists who often forgot she had a slave living with her and would do something herself and then remark immediately after, "oh, I should have had you do that." One week, she rarely even saw me around the house, even though she knew I was around somewhere (it was a huge house). Then, one day, she decided to drive me to the store with her, and as we were heading out of the garage, she stopped suddenly and her eyes opened wide. "Did you do that?" I nodded. While she had been busy with session after session, I turned her jungle of a back yard into a well manicured garden. She was pleased beyond belief, and I was happier than you can possibly imagine, mainly because I knew I had pleased her without her having to tell me to do it. The funny thing is: We had a relationship where we both understood that she was completely in charge. That's where it all began. Sometimes, the less she has to be reminded of it, the better the circumstances of the control dynamic.
