Just midnight ramblings...
Hi M,
It is about 2:00am and I can't sleep. Thinking about the past 24 hours and how fast everything is going. Thank you for answering my questions today and this evening. Last evening when we were chatting on line you asked me why I was doing this. I would like to answer if I may.
I am 1 year 3 months out of a relationship that I thought would be my "forever". We had been together for 7 years and had bought a house in the spring of 03. I was 10 years older than him and very focused on my daughter and my business. In retrospect he was a undiagnosed sub and not congruent with the goals and dreams that I had. I think that what he afforded me at the time was the vanilla dream of acceptability.
He was nice in his way never physically abusive but controlling in a passive aggressive way. I can now understand why I could never trust/surrender to him, although I can see the ways that I tried. The year of 06 was not good between us and I just kept putting my energies into my business. He kept saying that he needed space and time to think. I truly thought that I was being the good girlfriend at the time just backing off and not pressuring him for sex, attention, affection. We became 2 people sharing a house but nothing else. On Jan 1 07 he called me at the office on the phone and broke up with me. For the 1st 10 days of 07 I responded like most women. I love you we can work this out.....
on the 11Th I found out that he had emptied out the joint checking and the joint savings accounts. I moved out 10 days later and signed the title over to him on Feb 2 07. I walked away with no money, no savings, nothing but me and my dog.
I haven't spoken with him since then and to this day I still am not sure why he wanted out of the relationship. All I know is THANK GOD HE DID!!! I was dying. Not literally but I was not living and I was so unhappy living a lie that I did not know I was in.
As I started to date again this past fall I realized that something was missing in the men that I met. I kept thinking about what my needs and desires were. I kept looking back at my previous relationships to figure out my responsibilities in their failures.
The places where I was not a good partner.
I came to the conclusion that being a single parent and self employed had not allowed me to be in the receiver role. That I had never learned to trust or open to another. To be in my truth, 100% accountable and conscious, in sexual situations.
I had never allowed my self to explore the depths of my passions. I had never
been able to truly open in a intimate level with another. Because I chose men who were passive in nature I could never truly submit to them.
And this is what I yearn to do.
This is my true nature. To Submit.
The balls to the wall business owner is a lie. A learned projection based in the need for survival.
I have never met a man who can facilitate me. Who is strong enough for me to trust, who will take the responsibilities and make the commitment to the out come. Good or bad.
I ask for your patience with me as we move on this journey. I don't know what my safe words are. I don't know what my boundaries are. I don't know what my abilities are. Yet.
I do know that with the right person I will become magnificent in my capitulation to their desire.
My surrender is not something that I give lightly or without hesitation. I know the worth of my gift.
Thank you for taking the time to listen to me..
