D is for Dominant

[sidhewolf]

i would imagine that to be domineering is to be manipulative, and looking to a favorable end to the domineerors (is that even a word?) means...in other words, out for themselves....

....but to be in the presence of a true Dominant... is to know that your best interests are being watched out for and cared about...IMHO... (and speaking from experience)

<nods> Agreed! Though I don't like using the "True Dominant" phrase. Seems to stir PPL up at times <G>. But I think a True Dominant is what a True Dominant is to each one of Us, and which may be or mean different things to each one. Some things done by one Dominant may seem abuse to one Submissive, and yet that very thing that Dominant does may be a Blessing to another Submissive. We are all different <smiles>, however We share some in commons.

Believe it or not, I have actually experienced a Person who is a combination of Dominant and Domineering. Maybe the road to becoming a Seasoned Dominant is no less difficult for a Dominant Person than it is for a Submissive on the road to Learning and Growing? Many times Submissive's are termed by Others as not a True Submissive, because of something they do, don't do, or say....when in Fact they are Submissive, but just Learning, or just not Submissive to some Dominant they come across. Like a Submissive is not (nor imho Should be) Submissive to Everyone, perhaps not every Dominant is so clearly defined? All things take Time, Knowledge, and Growth.
