Better Late Than Never
I wanted to share a quick light bulb moment in the hopes that maybe it helps someone else.
My wife and I have been in a D/s relationship for a long time. We tend to ebb and flow like everyone does though and this morning, I finally discovered one of the reasons for that.
My sister-in-law is getting married in the Philippines this December. Terrible timing but, I can’t fix that. Some time ago, we decided that my wife would go back by herself due to the crazy price of airline tickets at that time of year and probably need to leave on Christmas eve or on Christmas day.
Well, yesterday, she said “I wish we could all go to my sister’s wedding” to which I replied, “I know me too but the cost of the tickets, we’ll need two hotel rooms, the school vacation schedule doesn’t fit…” and on and on and on.
Talk about discouraging right?! I realized that this reaction likely holds her back from being more dominant and confident. So here was my lightbulb moment. Today, I apologized for being discouraging and disrespectful and told her that if she wants the whole family to go to the wedding, I respect her decision and I will work to make that happen. She was very happy with that!
Aside from the short time I was disappointed in myself for what I had done, I’m happy with the outcome and I’m glad to have had the opportunity to go back and be a more encouraging and supportive sub.

Awesome light bulb moment PK! I catch myself doing the same thing from time to time…it’s hard to not go vanilla when it comes to stuff like that, but recognizing it is the key!
Smooches,
