I guess for us 24/7 means that we don't just have playtime and bring out our Dom/sub roles. We live it. He makes the big decisions, but is always interested in my thoughts. If I am concerned he isn't callous about his decisions. He will listen to my concerns and explain why his way is better. And he is usually right. I know he works hard for us and all his decisions are based on what is best for the family.

But all in all he is in charge all of the time. Does he ask me what restaurant I want to go to? Yes, and he will take me where I choose. I do drive if I have to, but normally he does all the driving when we are together. But I do have mom things to do that I need to drive.

I show him respect 24/7, he takes care of me 24/7, I look up to him for courage, and guidance 24/7.

I don't throw fits or "brat" for attention. He doesn't use his control over me in front of others for a power trip. It is just a good old-fashioned values marriage as far as I am concerned, with kink in the bedroom. (grins) Of course I am disciplined when I need it. And of course I am disciplined in the bedroom for both our enjoyment. There is a difference. When I disappoint him and have to be disciplined I will cry because of my mistakes and it is a horrible feeling. When we play that is different.
