Boot camp

[Archeon]

I very much agree with everything you have said delia, however one of your assumptions was wrong. When blue did this, she was working and had a child. It is simply a case of adapting to suit the requirements.

I think the thing I would like to re-emphasise again from delia's post is the fact that this is NOT easy, it is not something to be taken lightly, and a lot of people would not be able to cope with sustained degradation of this form.

Regards,

Arch

I feel i should respond and i am also willing to take questions if anyone has any from my point of view. I saw this as a test of my faith and commitment to Master. It was not done in the very beginning of the relationship, but a couple of months into it, after there was already a bond.

The degradation and humiliation were not the worst parts of it, it was the wondering if i would be able to make it through this, if i was strong enough. Also the deep shame of knowing that i had disappointed Master to the point to where He felt i needed this. At the time, i really did not understand fully. It was a punishment beyond all punishments and i questioned everything during that week. Before this time, i had some ideas of what a slave was, but really did not understand fully. This exercise, although i hate that it was needed, was invaluable in helping me retrain how i think about things.

Part of the reason this boot camp was done to myself and my "sister" at the time was because she and i were taking things for granted and not even really acting that submissive, but were being pretty selfish. I deeply regret that on my part, and she realized that this way of life was not for her through the process. I think realizing that this life is or isn't for you is the whole point of this exercise.

Now, will this work for everyone? Probably not. It is meant to answer questions that people have and give others ideas of things they might try that suit them. Some things had to be modified by Master for me during this time due to work and my child. However the majority of things were the same. The main thing was i was allowed to sit in a chair at work, but i sat on the floor as often as i could. I work with children, so that wasn't that unusual.

At home, my son did not really see anything weird, other than we all sat in the floor and ate dinner together, which really wasn't that bad. I also did not sit on furniture at home, only in the floor, even though my son would often be on the couch. He enjoyed having me on the floor and would come sit in my lap and play with me. He also would get out of bed and come see me sleeping on the floor. He is 3 now, so that didn't really bother him either.

I think it's a matter of realizing, as Master said, that this takes a huge commitment from both parties. Sometimes this is even more difficult in a long distance relationship because other things may be taxing you that the other person cannot see. Also, it takes much devotion as i see it. Again, i did question during the week if this is what i really wanted. What it came down to was this, i loved Master and i was willing to do whatever He thought was necessary to be with Him. *smiles sweetly at Master* I still feel this way today.

i do agree w/ delia, that a deeper connection develops over time between two people and this was just part of that deeper connection former. I consider my relationship w/ Master even stronger because of this exercise. I am quite sure there will be many tests of life thrown at U/us, but i know whatever it is, W/we will tackle it together.

Thank you all for reading and letting me share my thoughts on this. Again, i am happy to take questions on here or pm if anyone has any.

Sincerely,
Bluefarie, very happily owned and engaged to Master Archeon
