Let’s talk about devotion to our submission…
What does that sentence mean to you? And no, you don’t have to have a D-type to be devoted to your submission. You need drive and dedication…in whatever form that takes for you at any given time.
Some people think an s-type isn’t even an s-type without the D-type counterpart. I think that’s bullshit. I am not a “natural submissive”, bowing & scraping to anyone who calls themselves a D-type. I am a caregiver, both professionally & personally…but even without that aspect, i am still a submissive because it’s a basic part of who i am.
I think this is an important distinction because how can i devote myself fully to my Daddy if i can’t even devote myself to myself? How can i stand, afraid and seemingly alone, in the dark times at His side, if i can’t even stand up for myself? My D-type doesn’t define or complete me, He compliments me, enhances me.
Are you able to stand secure in your own submission, on your own? If not, how can you think you will be able to stand by Another, forsaking your will for Theirs?
Thoughts…?

Beautifully Broken Submissive 
Thank you for writing this! I have been thinking about this a lot lately in terms of the ‘boxes’ we are put in as submissives at times, which I think ties in directly to this notion of being a submissive first without being partnered. It’s upsetting for me to see this happening because it goes beyond individuals to a commonly held belief that is generally held by the community and that individuals will easily fall into, particularly with little to no understanding of the path they are on. For me, it’s more just a lonely road within that awareness of knowing that connecting with a partner may never happen at all because I don’t fit the mainstream mold of the commonly held narrative. Again, thank you for writing this, as it brings a lot of validation to these thoughts and internal awareness that I am experiencing right now. I came across your site this weekend, and I was really happy to find it. What you have posted here helps a lot!
