LA, you have certainly responded far more politely and genteely than I would have mustered.

I love when people "come to others aid" and take online forums so seriously.

When I mentioned this thread to the Owner, to inform him that I wasn't really a slave, his very first response was "Well did you tell them that a slave was whatever the Owner said she is?" and I said that while I hadn't really directly responded since I felt I'd clearly stated all my points previously and would only be overstating the obvious, that others had made that very succinct point. Then we went on to discuss other things.

Let's face it, RiotGirl came into this conversation way after most of the real meat had been discussed and threw some blatant flames into it- adding nothing to the actual discussion points with some perspectives of her own and simply condescending to the ones in it, especially the OP, me. Don't get huffy because we didn't give hugs and kisses in response. You'd do better to go examine the threads she posted about how insecure and unsure she's been in your relationship lately.

Wooo hooo.. high light desired text and automatically it quotes it for you. Must be something new i swear. Okay i feel the need to respond to this.

Actuallity its not "lately" Lately is this week, or the past week. It was actually a couple of weeks ago. Lately is in my memory time frame. Being the fact my memory gets pretty foggy after a couple of days. A couple of weeks ago, is not lately. Couple of days ago is lately. Yes i felt the need to beat on that point.

As i've been honest here and open for the most part. i think its totally uncouth to try and throw something in someone else's face that have been trusting enough to come and find answers about. And yes you did, you tried to throw that in his Face. Just admit it. To ME, its kind of like me coming on the board saying there is something wrong with me and you throwing at some one i am with.

Fear NOT! (yes i am extremely over tired and feeling goofy.. back to the program)

Fear NOT! i've already discussed said issues with Him. Fear Not! He has known about my issues longer then i cared to realise they were there. <grins> Or be truthful about. Fear NOT! i am sure he is quite knowledgable about what prattles around in my little head and why.

FEAR NOT (GI JOE has come to save the day) i've worked through those insecurities (as didnt we deem them to be just that Emerald, you and I discussing them?) Insecurities with in myself? (now if i want to get goofier and lose everyone with out a brain.. ha ha ha) Thank GOD for GI JOE.

Back not so seriously again (but oh so serious) You deemed the question i asked based on an insecurity within myself. As the question would be abit mute if the insecurity wasnt there. (thanks gi joe) i looked into myself. Realised what the insecurity was. (thanks again gi joe) Dealt with it. Fear NOT i wrote a post about insecurities. Fear Not (once again) i wrote and thanked the board, came to conclusion, stated points and how i dealt with said insecurity. G I JOEEEEEEEEEEEE

Over done dealt with. Why bring up something thats been resolved? Making a point that i'm a bit nutty? "Hi my name is kellly and i'm abit nutty" Done. Thinking my emtional state wouldnt reflect in my actions? i'm abit emotionally impulsive if you hadnt already guessed! (Which of course are just the milder reasons as to why you might of stated that, the other posssible reasons i will steer clear of, sort of, unless you can read between the lines!)

Every time i state something personal, or let something be known about me, i am throwing abit of trust out there. Will it come back to haunt me from those i have been open and honest with? Will they take it and use it against me? (yes thats basically one of my big concerns in life) Not saying you did, but that is throwing out trust for me.

Now the REAL question, what everyone should seriously and most importantly direct their attention to is:

What bearing has GI Joe on all this and what in the world could it possibly mean?

<grins> Makes perfect sense to me!

Edited:

Yes i have a typo fetish, but realising others might not appreciate my typo fetish, and not wanting to expose anyone non consensually to my typo fetish it has taken me awhile to struggle with in myself to go back through and take out as many as i could.

(and if you cant see my humour in that then you're mother didnt drop you on your head enough)
(and if you cant see the humor in that..... errmm.. too bad, i laughed?)

Disclaimer: Emerald, this isnt ment as an attack on you. Its not really personal, so dont take it that way. i am just stating my feelings on the quoted dotted line (ok so its not dotted, just imagine with me) . Not saying you are wrong or bad, its not a personal thing. Its just how i FEEL. What i feel is a personal thing and has no bearing on you, no judgement on you, and has nothing to do with you. (except for that line about throwing it in his face) Yeah i suppose i stood up and said that was wrong. As i felt it an attack on him. And if you'd like to discuss how i feel about that in a sane and logical, non attacking, you're ok, i'm okay, and happy people that can get along way.

Gladly

I own a "slave", but I didn't buy her, inherit her or capture her. Nor is she held against her will. It's a term used to describe an already existing relationship dynamic. She and I are comfortable with the term. It pleases us to think in terms of slavery - especially for her.

The D/s world didn't begin with a paradigm called "Total Power Exchange". Rather, the term was coined to describe an already existing relationship dynamic.

The term has been adopted by people who live in varied forms D/s relationships. For some, it's the holy grail of D/s. Why do so many people want to own the term for themselves?

It sounds impressive. It sounds cool. It sounds like you know what you're talking about and therefore what you're doing. It lets you feel like you're doing something special. It gives you a sense of belonging with others who are also "TPE". It's easier to share with your friends.

(Next Day Edit: I remember having written more of this post. Hmmm... Now if I could just remember what I wrote.)
