Topic:
Story of O (Where's lilith?)

It opens:
"Keep me rather in this cage, and feed me sparingly, if you dare. Anything that brings me closer to illness and the edge of death makes me more faithful. It is only when you make me suffer that I feel safe and secure. You should never have agreed to be a god for me if you were afraid to assume the duties of a god, and we all know that they are not as tender as all that. You have already seen me cry. Now you must learn to relish my tears." Pauline Reage Now that, I'd like to say. I know it's a book, but god how I'm tired of babytalk, kissy kisses and anything having to do with my say, men bowing to me, anyone, looking for answers. Really, what man can measure, is the only problem I see with reading this... though I'd imagined it all before, just never read. Thanks for the recommendation I wonder what the fellas think about that?? Ladies want to weigh in? |

tell him hes "a nice guy", he should get the clue.... As the OP is out shopping to the Story of O, I'll try to respond. He is nice, but that isn't the issue. He could be nice and still fit her criteria. He isn't disinhibited, adventurous, or sadistic enough. Thanks! I'm out |

Try reading between the lines here, folks. She is trying to be as honest as she can. It's not so hard. Her feelings are clear. She has expectations and he's being, simply put, a wussy. Damn, you sure call it like it is!! Yes, I do. I'm well criticized for it, thanks. For me? It's the golden rule. I read the OP, and I thought, wow she is one honest cookie. She deserves my sincerity. My profile says I'm forthcoming and I am. This poor lady is about to lose a relationship.... I love you ((((lilith))) for being you. It is a luxury to be honest in my book. I wasn't disagreeing with Lilith, just does the man realize he is thought of as a wus? I would hate to think that the saying, "Nice Guys Finish Last" is a fact. Have you told him to man up? I'm hearing you KCfriend. The man cannot read my mind and intelligence and age apparently cannot be qualifying factors for him to inherently know or understand my peculiarities even though he knows my life's story, so with lilith's help, I will give him a little help.. hopefully without losing what I need from the relationship. |

Right back at ya, sweet. Sent you a request so we can keep in touch. OK! I'm off to the bookstore. It is a casual lazy friday and I needed some direction since papa smurf is too lenient with me. I have little hope for him, lil, but its a fun idea you have. I can't resist. Really, it's great. |

Please read it yourself, first... ...and I'd love to hear what you thought of it. I read it in college, and kept a copy ever since. I'm going to pick it up. I shall report. Geez, I could've done better on my profile, but I think I just got lucky around here today. |

I need depth! I've argued this with friends far and wide. I almost wish that I didn't have such a need.. and here, now I can go, do I actually need it... |

ahhh... an athletic small town attorney. One or two know me here. In a way, it's all for fun, but I never lie here. That's actually the point. |

The Story of O, by Pauline Reage (not real name I don't think), is a classic. Originally in french, it was translated in the early 60's (I think). It is about supplication and subjugation, written in literal, sexually graphic and S&M terms. However.... the real meaning of the book, IMO, is the willingness to love, the wanting to love, a strong lovingly control man who is sexually passionaet and devoted. It is literature, to me. I will admit you have to read it more than once to get past the sex, which is hardcore graphic.... but once you get the message, it is heartwrenching. Literature, true literature. It's also not long, a three to four hour read. Sounds fitting. I will place a copy in his attache where there are normally science and newsweek articles. |

lol. i suppose. what an odd situation. I've had something of an interesting life. The pain only stopped around 35. |

way to not have any real pictures or any real information in your profile. Well, it's not hard to figure out why, is it? I get to be a little more honest in the forums |

I think my bfriend is too enamored of me. He may've gone blind. It may not work out though we are amiable and i semi-respect his manhood. Goodness oozes from every pore and angle of our relationship ..
I need to be disciplined, spanked, kindly told all the things i'm doing wrong right down to the way my heels hit the ground, the way i breathe or my inflection. I would also appreciate greatly if he more sternly regulated my meals. Instead he is kind and forgiving, supportive and available and doing too much waiting.. waiting around to see what I am doing, what I am saying, how I am responding. I need unpredictability, yearning, ego, disapproval, and when he gives way I must tremble in relief and fear of unknowing and then, only then will I be able to appreciate some kind of assurance. Now, I can't really teach him those things, can I. It's going to take an authentic partial sadist egomaniac with a firm place in the world. So, how to break up with a guy's been on your side, thinks he's doing everything RIGHT. at least now you don't have to worry about breaking up with him He was smarter than I give him credit for. |

You don't respect him, you think he is too nice. If you aren't clear about communicating and your expectations, how can he fulfill them? You want to just hang on until you don't want to have sex anymore? If you love him, or want to again, tell him you need him to be more assertive. You read the Story of O, darling? If so, give him a copy. If not, read it and decide if he is bright enough to pick up what it actually means. Thank you Lilith for the good advice. I never could figure which book does a man of a certain, i don't know, stature? need. |
