Gosh I must be perverted, because when I first read the title, I thought you meant lesbian instead of love...get my mind out of the gutter.

I think saying it is a wonderful thing. Take if out of the D/s context for a minute, its such a powerful phrase. I was just like you, scared that if I said it I would push the most wonderful man I know away, but on the contrary, has made our relationship so much stronger, and brought us closer together, it was the best decision I have ever made, and you know what, the D/s is now so much more intense because we have that unbelivable connection. I couldn't be happier, and hopefully it will be the same for you.
