ORIGINAL: CatKnight If I understand correctly, you're afraid that due to your size advantage, you might injure him if you lose control. One of the first things my fiance taught me is that anger has NO place in a scene - and punishment is a scene. A dominant must maintain full control of their emotions. This is how very bad things happen. You must get this anger out of your system before you can properly deal with him. If you favor direct confrontation, then tell him you believe he's a liar and have no desire to play with him at this time. I repeat - do NOT go into any kind of scene while that anger is festering. Once you are in control, then it's proper to discipline him. I'm certain people far more experienced than I can advise you there if you want. If he is not used to being punished physically, then you need to be mindful of his limits. Perhaps a little confession will help you make up your mind. Fairly early in our relationship and just as I began experimenting with BDSM I did something to hurt my fiance. She was more in pain than angry. I came over to apologize and we discussed what happened. At the time she told me a friend had suggested she punish me - it surprised me, but I told her if that's what she'd needed I'd let her. At the time she dismissed it. The wound was too fresh. A few days later we were talking and it came up again. She replied she was considering how many strokes were appropriate. Again we discussed the matter and agreed on what would do what she wanted: Bring closure to the matter for both of us, discourage a repeat....not that that was likely, and yet not be so severe that it would damage what we were trying to build together. Certainly negotiation is probably inappropriate in your situation, but the point I want to emphasize is she didn't make any hasty decisions and waited for her emotions to still. She also took into account what she knew of my limits. Up to that point she'd only lightly, playfully swatted me with her weapon of choice - a paddle. In fact I could tell she was holding back and had mildly complained once. She didn't hold back this time. It was QUITE painful, and I took no pleasure from it other than perhaps an emotional release that this resolved the matter. However she made sure the response was appropriate to what she hoped to accomplish. If she'd lost control, it would have taken very little to reduce me to a gibbering mess, and not much more to injure. Think about what you want to accomplish. Think about what you know of him. Make a rational decision on what's appropriate. Make sure you're in control of yourself. THEN deal with him. I completely agree with CatKnight. Albeit new to things, he has a damned good head on his shoulders and has been listening to some damned good advice. And his fiance is experienced and seems to be well rounded as well. Do not do it in your anger, wait upon it. Although I do agree that it seems your sub seems lacking in something worth saving. Doing something in anger and fearing in losing control is NOT good. Take that as a queue to walk away for a bit and get your emotions under control. I'm not sure a physical punishment is going to correct something like lying. Especially since it sounds like it's an ongoing thing.

Honey, you obviously missed the "want to be used as a toilet fetish" thread or "where do I get instructions on setting my sub on fire" thread. LOL Thank you, DelRay for that one.
