ORIGINAL: Mavis RavenMuse, Your point about "that discomfort maybe the very reason he is insisting on it." is dead on. He's not some yutz who delights in seeing me uncomfortable, but there is no case where my pride will come before my obedience, and i like that He's firm on that. If submission only happened when it was fun or easy it wouldn't be submission would it *g* There are points where my girl has to swallow her pride and submit where my ways cross what she would normaly want or be 'comfortable' with. I don't constantly have my girl jumping through hoops but sometimes, yep, I'll get her to do something just to reinforce the dynamic. Mostly when SHE needs it reinforcing. Most of my decisions have other reasons, she is always allowed to ask for my reasoning, she may not get the answer she was looking for, but she is allowed to ask. Glad to see you do appear to have methods whereby you can bring up questions and ask about his reasons, much as my girl is allowed to. It doesn't change the decision but her understanding my reasons builds her trust in how I handle making the decisions. The more trust, the easier for her to be comfortable whether she knows the reason or not.
