| Trust - The Second Key |
| Even though that word is only five letters, it is very big in it's meaning and in it's function. It is an integral part of a D/s relationship, or any relationship at all. Trust in a D/s relationship goes so much more further in depth than most vanilla relationships, sometimes, it's trusting that Dom/me with your life. |
| The submissive must be able to trust that their Dom/me will respect his/her limits, will not hurt him/her (unwanted), will always have safety first on His/Her mind, and will not leave the submissive without the basic neccessities of life. The Dom/me must be able to trust the submissive to carry out the needed tasks, obey, please, and be fully faithful and safe in the same way that S/He as a Dom/me is expected to do. |
| Without reputable trust (in which should constantly be renenwed and grow), how will the submissive or slave be able to give him/herself fully? Would either individual give complete communication and honesty? In my opinion, yes, things can still happen, but they wouldn't end up being successful, fun, or even safe. |
| The biggest part of trust, is the feeling a submissive or slave gets when s/he is doing a risky or intence scene, and the adrenalin rush and fear are there from the thrilling situation, but not anxiety of fear for one's safety and/or life. Having complete trust can open up a set of doors for all to be explored and enhanced for further growth. It can allow one's mind to be free and on the given task, rather than wondering if they are going to be safe or not. |
| Recognizing that the adrenalin rush comes from the fear or intensity of the scene, but there is a difference in playing death, and really staring it in the eye. |
