1. "Vanilla" is about interacting in balance, not the BDSM polarization of control and surrender. So long as you regard him for one second as "your submissive" you are perpetuating his inability to interact from a place of balance. 2. "Vanilla" relationship includes substantial intimacy, shared between to people as equals. If you do not know how to support and facilitate enhanced emotional intimacy, you cannot teach it. 3. "Vanilla" requires balance. If one is heavily biased towards one polarity, they must learn the opposite polarity to the same extent. Then they can counterbalance to get to "even." This should be nothing new for a master, who trains a slave to exercise their self will and free choice to surrender from a place of strength, wholeness, and high self esteem. One with a needy and empty heart, who bargains by giving to get, simply has nothing to share. 4. It starts by teaching how one's source of love is the only place they have ever felt it, right within their very own heart. From there, one gains greater awareness of all aspects of SELF, including their power and authority -- including the power and authority to intentionally choose to surrender.
