What are your views on my observations on submission, these are my personal views and may terefore conflict with what is generally accepted. I would be very interested to hear the views of a submissive on my thoughts of submission as a Dominant.

I saw this question last night and I wanted to comment but I was so exhausted that I couldnt hold my head up to try to answer it Lol. Anyway, I would like to comment on myself and myself alone.

Personally, Submission means to me. Giving myself truly to that person. Thats a hard thing for me to do, I am always fighting with myself trying to tell myself that it's ok to be submissive, to let myself go and enjoy what's happening. Submission also means to me letting go, giving myself and sacrificing what I may want or think i need in order to please my SO. I've done the vanilla thing and It didn't work, it truly didn't work for me. I felt as if something was missing, like he wasn't getting me, and he didn't get me. Even though, he was a lovely man, one who took care of me and his responsibilities. I didnt feel a connection to him, not the connection a submissive has with her Dominant. He wasn't dominant and I didnt realize at the time how much I wanted it.
So I guess my need and want to be submissive took over the want of being with someone who everyone thought was a great match for me. I just didnt work and i guess me wanting to submit and my personality of wanting to be submissive to someone took over.
As, ID stated the definition of submission means something different to everyone. My definition of submission means something different for me then others. I am feisty, very up front when something is wrong and I will speak on it.
