I definitely agree with You there, Sir Russell. My Master and I have known each other for nine years now and W/we are extemely close. W/we are Master and sub, Husband and wife and best friends. It has come to the point where W/we complete each other's sentences or one can look at the other and know what the other person is thinking or is about to say. Master knows me better than I know myself a lot of the time. D/s has definitely brought U/us closer as a couple.
