I say I'm 24/7, but really that is a misnomer because like many have stated you can't do something for 24 hours a day. Life is busy and we submissives/slaves have many roles that define us as people. For me I'm a mother, a student, a Christian, a friend, a daughter, a sister, and yes a submissive to my Master. I also have many roles other than slave to my Dom. I am also his best friend, partner, and lover. I can't live my life and be in total submission to him 24/7 unless I gave up my life, which I'm not willing to do.He is always no matter what my Dom, he does own me and I am his property. However, we operate our lives according to the guidelines and negotiations we have set forth in our contract and through discussions that we have daily.
