bullshit.

one of my limits is children, in any way, shape or form.

It has nothing to do with trust. If a Dom ever asked me to do something morally wrong, it would speak volumes of his character.

how many limits you will cave into for a relationship

None.

I had plenty of 'limits' coming into our relationship. I still have them; that means WE still have them.

beth has none - but knowing me well, she trusted mine coming into our relationship, she trusts ours now. They've never changed in 7 years - Maybe that means we're just 'stagnant'.

I don't understand the 'hard'/'soft' differentiation. It seems like a set up for drama. Saying "I may do something under certain circumstances"; requires mind reading ability to know when, or if, those "circumstances" exist.

Compromising to experience things in a casual setting is one thing; compromising, on either side of the flogger, to get into a relationship can lead to frustration down the road. You can't compromise long term compatibility. A personal evaluation determining what's a must, or need to have, versus a like to have, but can do without; is about a far as compromising as you should go.

In my opinion only of course.

perhaps a sign of respecting the submissive?


Where's the fun in that?

Nothing wrong with respecting the submissive, but the relationship, and it's dynamic, should be respected, as well. What I mean is, it all depends on why the limits are seeking to be adjusted.

would that be a limit to raise if you absolutely trusted him?

i think it was the combination of the roofies and the hypnotism, but im still not sure.

i can live with the misuse of the grapefruit...because i am just happy that i dont say things like...."for all intensive purposes" and "orientated"

Level, i am talking about when first entering into a relationship.
If a Dom sees my limit of children as disrespect to the relationship, that is his prerogative. But he will not be in a relationship with me.

k...and please know i am just talking about myself. There are certain hard limits that both Sir and i have..so that isn't a problem. But there are a few things he loves, and for him i would do it, but in the beginning no. Why because there is no trust there yet. He worked hard building trust in me to him. He had a reason.

Again imho wouldnt the Dom seek to build trust first, instead of  , for example, doing a knife play scene  first, when i am not sure it's a limit or not? Not all limits are hard either, the few i have we both have, the others he knows he needs to build the trust in me, because he wants me to serve him. It is not though for him all about limits and kink, so perhaps that is why i am confused.

As the person who introduced the hard/soft limit thing into the thread, I thought I'd clarify.

For me, hard limits are things that are absolutely never going to happen because of personal issues and experiences. I guess many of us have those, to some extent.

The soft limits are those that make me seriously nervous, and I would need to be with somone I totally trusted in order to approach them. For example, I would say to a prospective Dom/partner that needles are something I've never done, they scare the crap out of me, but there's no reason why, at some point in the future if he wanted to try it, that I would go for it too IF we had the required level of trust.

I agree, I hate the 'mind reading' expectation - I tend to say what I think without any chance of misinterpretation, lol. But all of this hard/soft limit stuff - including how soft limits work with me - would be discussed with a prospective Dom before we ever got to the point of play.

Hope this takes the drama out things

That's how they work for you.. I do it slightly different.

Telling me she isn't going to do something will not work. I'll go somewhere else and find a female that's open to me and how I choose to run the relationship. It's all about the attitude and the trust that I have in her as well..Is she going to try and manipulate? Does she show the signs of what I think is bad behavior? and so on and so on..

his limits are easy to keep, he just doesn't allow them

hers is a little different and stem from a certain uncertainty
