Being Assertive isn't a bad thing...

...In fact more men need to be assertive.

This article is so true.

Be Assertive or Your in Danger of Being Dumped 

LDR

It's been a while. I have felt latley that I have lost my passion for writing, but that's probably a consequence of taking on such a scientific and mathmatical major. I fear that I am losing my creative ability. Even so...

I think I am going to start posting my responses to fetlife's boards on my blog. Just so that I can keep track of them personally and for whom ever else happens to stumble upon my "submissive journal".

Anyway, this was the thread on Fetlife:

"Best LDR Moment

by TheNecromantrix 2 months ago

What has been the single best moment you've had in your LDR so far? It can be a moment you've spent apart, or together, or one of each if you'd like.
For me, the single best time I had when we've been apart was Valentines' Day this year. I told my subby that I didn't really believe in Valentine's Day as I thought it was hokey and kind of a big waste of time. I got two cards in the mail, one that was a sympathy card for people in mourning, and the other was an actual Valentine's card. He sent me flowers all the way from the UK-- these lilies, which are my favourite. The fact that he would take the time and effort to make me really feel special and loved on a day he knew I hated made me feel wonderful.
My single-best moment when we were together was getting to wake up next to him every day, feeling his warm body against mine. There is nothing so nice as having a sexy, eager submissive fetch you juice first thing in the morning buck naked. I recommend it to everyone."

And here was my response:

My favorite memory has to be any time I have ever gotten a hug from Him.
I miss him.
It strange to think that something so simple as a hug can be so wonderful, yet I guess when you have a LDR you really do appreciate the little things.
I miss him dearly. :(

Days like today, the one's that jump at you when you least expecting it, the ones where your LDR becomes real and hard to deal with all of a sudden, the days where the wave of nostalgia hits you, are the days I hate most.

These days are the hardest.
