i agree with mali in that it depends on my mood. while i adore my Master and i enjoy knowing that He is absolutely enthralled with what He is doing to me, there are times when i also thoroughly enjoy Him reacting to me in a distant manner. i much prefer His closeness and passionate responses to all that we do, but sometimes, when He is distant, it gives me the opportunity to play 'bratty' and see if i can't change His mind...those times are a lot fun
