Someone being patient with you is one of the softest forms of love.

Someone will maybe, again, say softness has very little to do with D/s relationships... like with trust, integrity, or loyalty, patience won't do any harm to any dynamic, including D/S, or whichever you chose...

Softness has very little to do with D/s relationships

Au contraire ..... I think softness has everything to do with any relationship, especially D/s.

That's as plain as the nose on your face. There is a time and place for everything ... Especially softness. One has to be very soft after hard use ....

Patience, is really one of the firm foundations of all that is right with any relationship and shows maturity! Tenderness speaks of heartfelt caring that builds trust and eventually love!

Any relationship requires that fine line of patience and softness... I really can't imagine anything meaningful without it

Don't you think that having
the patience to let the relationship
come to you and hold you is
learned behavior. The paradox
of power, in a power exchange
relationship is that it ebbs and
flows between them.


ExNameForUse replies on 6/24/2023 11:36 am:
I think the greatest power we can achieve is to learn ways to have power over ourselves. Only with that power, it becomes possible to exchange it with someone who has it as well.
If one has no power and control over one's own instincts, desires, temperament, actions... how could it be possible to have it over me, or for me to willingly give it to somebody who is not in control of his own mind, body, or behavior...
It is a beautiful thing that we can learn to be better. It is up to us whether we will learn or just go with the flow of our basic instincts.

I can't say that I disagree with you on this, Ex, especially in long term, 24/7, live-in,
D/s relationships; however, in session to session relationships/arrangements, where tribute is expected--if not, mandatory--patience/softness kind of goes out the window. Time , ever fleeting & transitory, becomes too much of a factor, I think, in a short-term D/s session interaction. I could be wrong here, though, because I do agree with you that patience is a carsdinal virtue, and besides, many D/s sessions are somewhat tentative,& probationary, at best--a trial or experiment of sorts to gauge mutual compatibility, so patience would probably be advisable in this somewhat more abbreviated context, as well.

Thank you for your comment, subdude. It is fine to agree we disagree on certain things. Nothing wrong there.

Ex

This is so simple but true and powerful!

Thank you, Jenny, I agree that patience is a powerful force no matter how contradictory those two words are...

Roots that you plant are so important. Never let them go. Water them often.

Patience and nurturing what you want to grow and enjoy its fruits

glad they weren't Impatiens !

This was a nice illustration of the value of time and affection

It was my vision as well when I saw the illustration...
