Another reason for submissives to carefully choose to whom they will submit to. Particularly in the early goings, I am a firm believer that rigid boundaries should be set so that all involved parties can be comfortable in where they are going when as they move deeper and deeper into a particular scene. For example, if you're playing with someone for the first time that you aren't really familiar with, perhaps you'll ask that no bonds be applied to your hands, so that if the Dom, whether it be intentional or unintentional, should lose control, you have some way to protect yourself, or heaven forbid, get loose and defend yourself. Or maybe you could have a lifestyle-friendly person with you as you play the first few times, maybe in another room, and no gags and locks on doors, so if you need help, you have someone there. These measures I believe can make the experience more pleasurable for a submissive that is new with her Dominant, because the "worry factor" isn't as strong. As your relationship progresses, then you can move onto more challenging scenes with fewer boundaries. This keeps it rational, safe and stimulating, because you have a bigger challenge to look forward to.. Another thing for Dominants to remember is that your charge is ultimately in your care. They rely on you for guidance through their experience, and also rely on you for protection. If you allow yourself to slip too deeply and lose control and harm someone, you will probably feel those effects as much as they will, on an emotional level. It can be just as devastating for you to allow that to happen, as a Dom, as it is for your submissive. _______________________________ Never Without Luvdragon
