OK, I have a few different answers, but first, I'd like to point out that there is no reward for "24/7". Just like there's no reward for "slave" or "sub" or whatever else. So insofar as I'm concerned, this is only a statement of reality, not any kind of qualitative or quantitative measure of someone's relationship. So, my initial thought when I hear 24/7 is that we're talking people who live together in the same house, for the most part, day in and day out. Now, looking at it more deeply, I consider mine my slave all the time.... even when she is at work... even when she is in the garage working on art... even when she is out visiting her parents in Illinois. So that certainly muddies my very simplistic initial divide. And, I am well aware that there are people would not think of mine as "24/7" because I do send her out to work so she's not (in their minds) available to focus on me all the time. I think in the end, who cares? What's WAY more important is how well any given relationship is working out for the participants... there actually IS a reward for that... we call it "joy" and I personally like it. If you'd like to avoid miscommunication, you could state somethign like... I am in a 24/7, Long Distance, Master/slave relationhip. *shrugs* That's a value-neutral statement of fact that should communicate clearly.
