First of all, a bit of an introduction. I'm someone thinking about BDSM (quite a bit) ... the role of a sub. I suppose you could consider this is my "coming out" post on this board. Be gentle, please.
I'm a bit fan of the French children's book "The Little Prince". One chapter, in particular, speaks to me quite a bit. It's the chapter where the fox asks the little prince to tame him.
Here's a reference:

(It's a short chapter.)
Now, I know that BDSM means a lot of things to a lot of people, but that it usually involves "training" or "discipline." I'm having a hard time cozying up to this concept, perhaps because I'm so strong willed. It's more than that, though. I think a wise and understanding master should look into our hearts, forgive much, and will be able to patiently express his lessons through other methods. At least, that would be most effective for me.
Is it possible for a romantic-at-heart such as myself to really come to terms with discipline? Or is it hopeless? I suspect that the best I can hope for is to be "tamed" (in a "Little Prince" sort of way) after a period of trust-building.
In other words, should I run back to the other boards?
By the way, vanilla is a lovely taste, too. I just crave something new. And there's so much about BDSM that appeals to me.
