fantassy - Thank you for the encouragement! I am glad you found this thread to be something you could use. It also helps brace up the idea that due to the level of care and concern one develops for another person. Showing that you value their concerns and thoughts can get in the way of the D/s part of things without even realizing it.
Additionally, you are correct about the chauffeur thing. One of the things I started when she and I first got together was that I would drive, I would open and close doors for her. She not being allowed to do it herself. So the same idea as your Dom, just reversed in application. I still do that to this day, but it doesn't hold the same value due to how I have let things become mundane.
Again, thanks for the warm thoughts!
