Submissive or not, slave or not, I define these by my *own* terms in the end, and if to others I fit neither title, then so be it. I'm not one dimensional, neither is my partner, and we *both* feel the need to satisfy the other on every level. There have been many times where the sex we had wasn't all it could've been for me, for him too, but this is where we had to learn one another's bodies as much as we'd had to learn one another's minds, hearts and souls. To leave out the sexual element, for us at least, would've left the union incomplete. There are still elements missing of course, I've talked about those in a thread I posted before, but we're both putting in the work on those areas, as we've done along the way in everything about our relationship. It *is* just as important for me to be satisfied with sex as it for him to be, at least it should be. I still value his pleasure more than my own, but that's not what he wants, he wants it to be equal, and so I'm working on feeling that way as well. That said, it's always been important that I am satisfied sexually for the most part. There are times it doesn't/can't happen, and those don't bother me, but if it's ignored for too long then I do bring that to his attention, and it's always been something he's appreciated and encouraged. I understand those in the lifestyle and out of it (vanilla) who don't expect or even want to have orgasms of their own and only want their partner to enjoy sex, and they find their enjoyment elsewhere, I experience that during the times where I don't have an orgasm, but overall for my own relationship, when we climax together there's a whole other level of satisfaction...beyond satisfaction, it's hard to put into words. I'd liken it to when you're toegther and both feeling connected on a level that's beyond just caring or love, it's a spiritual union. That's precious no matter what brings it on, we've shared it many times nonsexually, but there've also been many times we share this during sex, and if I never or just rarely had orgasms with him we'd both feel we weren't reaching that level. Sure we can attain that other times without orgasms, but why stop there? *giggles* I think it's perfectly 'normal' and understandable to want the orgasms for yourself despite being a submissive/slave and anyone who tells you that you're less than them because you want this for yourself is an idiot and don't listen. What works for them is one thing, but they can't slap a label on your for living differently, just as nobody can tell them they're any less for not wanting the same things. The only real question I'd have is how does your partner feel about this? Is your satisfaction, including sexual, important to him? More than his own? Less? Equal? Non-existant? This is what you need to find out for sure, and then you can work with that, or know it's not compatible with your needs/desires. Wish you the best of luck and don't feel alone in desiring/needing more than you may be getting, it doesn't reflect at all on your submission to him unless *you* feel it does in your own mind/heart
