Male submissives

Be nice, Oz.

The code needs to surround the text, it starts with [quote] and then ends with the same thing but there's a / before the word quote (I can't type it or else it will work and you won't see the code)

As far as your marriage falling apart, without more details I can't really say, but I had a similar experience where I tried to have a power-equal relationship with my little one for years and all we did was fight, argue, and be miserable. I kept on asking him things like "where do you want to go to eat," "what should we have for lunch," "what movie do you want to watch" and his answer was always "whatever you want," and I was so bent on making us be equal that I'd yell at him to have an opinion, and his response was always "but I just want to please you; I just want what you want."

This misery lasted years until I admitted to myself (and then to him) that yes, I really would much rather dominate and he just sighed and said "Oh, thank God. Now please just tell me what to make for dinner."

This sounds so familiar... in my case, I generally say 'whatever you want' because I know that whatever I say she'll do what she wants anyway

Something like that, she would often be dominant in bed but was not interested for the rest of the time. Of course when kids come along it is not as easy, but I am sure others have found ways round that problem.

Great now I have got the hang of it. Thanks a lot.

Well You almost have it, Dryhill. In this case, you typed in the word "quote" bracketed by "[" and "]" in the text when you were talking about it. This caused the quote function not to work properly. (I edited your quote and used the curly brackets so it wouldn't screw up my entry). I'm always screwing up, so I take advantage of the "Preview Post" function to assure I got it right. Of course I have previewed then forgot to actually submit a reply and lost the post entirely... just something to keep in mind.

Another useful feature is the "Edit" feature that is available right after a post. (The edit button disappears after a while). It seems like I always have something else to say or have screwed up on my initial post and it gives me a way to correct it.
