So I got my stationary in the mail today. It's so pretty. Just waiting on my envelopes now. <3
Right now

It really takes a lot for me to talk about my submissive side. I tend to focus more on my dominant side because it's easier than thinking I want to give in to someone. It's hard because of how independent and strong I am- and have to be. I know that it takes a strong person to be able to say, "I need you to give me what I need," and I respect those strong men and women who are wholly independent but are able to give up that control when it's necessary and needed. Maybe it's cowardly, but I'm terrified to give up that control.
I think some of it is that Josh scares me. He's not a scary guy, not at all, but I think what scares me is how unglued I become when he kisses and touches me. Part of me wants to give him, to be his "good girl" I suppose is the term I could use here, but then I try to withdraw and it is sometimes painful and disappointing. I think he sees it, but doesn't understand it at the same time. He knows I'm intimidated, that I have issues with sex and being sexual in general, but I don't think he gets how deep it runs.
I feel like if I let myself be submissive - even just that once- to enough of a degree, my dominant side will be swept away and lost.
Maybe what I'm really afraid of is losing myself. I'm not sure. It confuses me why I get so conflicted. I know I am a Switch, and yet I feel like that submissive side could destroy me. Just like I think my dominant side could destroy me. But I'm more comfortable with having control than without. Maybe he sees it, and maybe he doesn't, but I think part of him is trying to see what I've been hiding.
Talking about it is the hardest thing to do. I wonder if he knows that. We haven't been together long so I don't expect him to get a lot of my body cues, but he seems to be able to get inside my mind, so I wonder....I really hope he can figure it out.
Otherwise, I don't know if coming unglued will obliterate me or reincarnate me.
