What is patience?
You hear it said that subs have no patience. I know in my case that is sometimes true. I have all the patience in the world with other people. But when it comes to my needs, I have little or no patience. Not that I don't try. I have running conversations with myself to slow down and I always caution others to take their time.
So who needs patience? We all do. We need to take the time to learn. We need to take the time to know someone. Entering a relationship is not something you do in the heat of a moment. It is something that needs to be nurtured and grown over time. Watered and tended, fertilized until it comes to bloom.
We plant the seeds and want the fruit the next day. If that happens we cheat ourselves of the wonder of discovery. The discovery of what makes someone the person we want to be with.
Patience. Doms have patience, and if they don't we may be doomed to fail.
So subs? Listen to him/her when you are told to take your time. Be wary if he/she pulls a collar out and says ... "we will learn as we go."
