I recently saw the thread that asks if there can be love within a D/s relationship, I've always wondered about something and that thread gave me the ability to ask, I apologize if this is seen as some sort of repeat thread but my question is somewhat different.
Do you love your Master/slave? There are different types of love and the one I am talking about is, do you actually love them? Should one day one of you wish to stop this lifestyle, would you remain together? In public, around people who don't know about your lifestyle, are you classed as "Girlfriend/Boyfriend/Partners" or is your relationship simply that of Master/slave and should it be any different, would your "love" go away and you'd find someone willing to fulfil that role once again?
To clarify, my relationship with my Master is, as discussed with Him, we are partners, boyfriend and girlfriend, however even as a boyfriend He is my Master and we both know this, they are one and the same thing, I submit to Him completely and in every possible way but our love comes first over everything, should either of us wish to discontinue this relationship of ownership, we still love each other, not simply because He is my Master. If I did not love him as a boyfriend I would not be willing to submit to Him.
I realize at this point I may have confused some of you, including myself, I am not very good at explaining things at all.
I suppose my question is, if you ignore the bit where Master and Partner are the same thing to you(if that's so), which is more important? Do you love them first and foremost as a boyfriend/girlfriend/wife/husband or do you ONLY love them as and because they are your Master/slave?
Do you still have times where you cuddle up, watch a movie and tease the other as your partner, not your dominant or submissive, things like tickling, playful name calling, pillow fights and the like?
I apologize for the length and for the confusion I have undoubtedly caused a few of those reading this and I thank in advance anybody who should reply to my very curious self.
