Yes I Said Compromise, You Twit




"If you limit your choices only t.o what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise." Robert Fritz

I love early morning quiet in my house. It allows me t.o write and think with no distractions. This week it dawned on me that I might not want t.o give that up any time soon. A relationship would make that impossible, as there would be some kind of adjustment t.o make.

That's the kicker isn't it? Compromise...
T.o compromise one's time, schedule, and complete autonomy is always a challenge. I suppose that's why I got so angry at Narcissistic Fuckwit this week, and shot off a message t.o him about compromising one's self to get some version of what we sought out in the beginning.

That's what most do, they compromise what they were seeking in the beginning, because they get tired of waiting for their boxes t.o all be checked off, or else they give up, thinking their dream of a fit with another human being will have t.o be less than they wanted, because they are tired of being alone.

As a submissive, in the past, I have compromised plenty for the person I am involved with. I would say that many submissives face this challenge, by the very nature of pleasing their Dominant. The danger is of course losing themselves in the process. The Dominant, therefore, has a responsibility t.o make sure that their sub is not compromising things which are super important t.o them. T.o not do so, will possibly cause great resentment t.o breed and fester. For sure, it will cause the sub t.o lose themselves and in the end barely resemble the person you fell in ove with. Sure, the Dom will have t.o make a compromise possibly of something he deems important.

But that's the thing, this is called relationships, folks. If you don't want t.o compromise, don't attempt one until you do. That being said, don't waiver on your desires and needs just because you are lonely.

Middle of the Road
The Pretenders

The middle of the road is trying to find me
I'm standing in the middle of life with my plans behind me
Well I got a smile for everyone I meet
As long as you don't try dragging my bay
Or dropping the bomb on my street
Now come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the middle of the road, yeah
In the middle of the road you see the darnedest things
Like fat guys driving 'round in jeeps through the city
Wearing big diamond rings and silk suits
Past corrugated tin shacks full up with kids
Oh man I don't mean a Hampstead nursery
When you own a big chunk of the bloody third world
The babies just come with the scenery
Oh come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the middle of the road, yeah
The middle of the road is no private cul-de-sac
I can't get from the cab to the curb
Without some little jerk on my back
Don't harass me, can't you tell
I'm going home, I'm tired as hell
I'm not the cat I used to be
I got a kid, I'm thirty-three
Baby, get in the road
Come on now
In the middle of the road
Yeah

It comes down to remaining true to yourself. Lord knows I've done the compromise thing with mixed results. I'll happily enjoy myself until that right one comes along.

agree with drmgirl and this line of yours especially: "he Dominant, therefore, has a responsibility t.o make sure that their sub is not compromising things which are super important t.o them. "

the things that are super important to [her] are part of what make her so interesting!

I have compromised before, and it has cost me dearly. There is wisdom here, not in opposing compromise, which you do not endorse, but in finding the moments in which it is important enough.

Checking all the boxes. Well, there are big boxes and little boxes to check. One should not compromise on those big boxes. Little boxes are like icing on the cake. If you get all of the, great. If not, you will certainly find much happiness with all those big boxes.

Tying to fit he square peg into the found hole is not a good idea. Giving up...is giving up. Being patent, is maintaining what is important.
