i have the right to expect you believe I am intelligent, caring and loyal person.

i have the right to expect you to administer your punishments on me with care and caution.

i have the right to question you motives, should you deny my requests as long as i do it with respect.

i have the right speak up if i feel our relationship is not giving me what i need.

i have the right to tell you what I need in a respectful manner.

i have the right to expect You to understand my reasons for doing so, and the right to expect You to listen with an open heart and mind.

i have the right to walk away from our relationship if W/we cannot come to a common ground on these issues.

i have the right to expect tenderness, love and understanding after a scene is completed, should it be what i desire.

i have the right to ask Youfor that tenderness if i'vehad a bad day, or if i just feel the need tor closeness. i understand that there will be times when You and i will disagree about this-when Youwill want a scene and i will not.

i have the right to voice my opinion, and expect You to listen to and consider my reasoning. i expect You to have final word, but i expect You to wholeheartedly consider my feelings. whatever they me happen to be

i have the right to expect You to understand that deep trust often breeds love, and i expect You not to repel me if i tell You that i love you. for my Mistress i will love you should O/our relationship move ahead. should O/our trust continue to grow.

i have the right to expect You to tell me , at any point, if You do not feel You can return those feelings. so that i may decide what i want and need. For it is Your pleasure that adds to my own. and makes it real. and mine that adds to Yours.
I too Agree with Your list for the most part <soft smiles>. But I do want to add that a list like this is more specific to Your Relationship with Your *M*, then a general Rule, so to speak. From my experience, each Relationship and it's Agreements and Negotiations are different. And not All Relationship(s) between *M* and Submissive or Slave contain All of such things.

My thoughts are personally, that Needs should always be considered and attempt to be met, no matter Whose (Dom/me', Master/Mistress, Submissive or Slave), and are non-negotiable. Wants/desires are maybe's, at least on the Submissive or Slave end of the stick <grins>. Not All *M*'s are so generous to consider wants/desires of a Submissive or Slave at the top of Their lists <G>.

This list is a great thinking tool for Other's though <soft smiles>. Things to consider each and every one, for Anyone Submissive or Slave, as well as Dom/me's, Masters and Mistresses to view and think about. What's most important I think is for PPL to Choose OP that have the same interests and Needs. That gives the Relationship the best Chance of Joyous Survival
