Hi Spark:

Excellent post. Yes, I have felt like this. I think boundaries are very important in a prodomme client relationship. Much like the old saying; "good fences make good neighbors," good boundaries make for a solid professional relationship between a Mistress and her client. For years I sought something more than what a professional relationship offers, never realizing that what I had, what I was actually experiencing, was more than good enough. That brought on all sorts of problems and complications. To begin with, I'm married. How "deep" do I really think I can go? Duh. Anyway, these days I approach dommes more like therapists or personal trainers and don't strive to make the fantasy 100% real. It's working out much better this way. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
