Expectations and Negotiations

What do you expect...

  • from people
  • from relationships
  • from dynamics
Why do you negotiate...
  • from people
  • from relationships
  • from dynamics

These things hold the ebb and flow of things through out our existence and daily life. I see both expectations and negotiations prevalent in all things that we do that encounters another individual. 


The concept of expectation for me:

Well, I have to levels to this. There are the things that I expect myself to do in conjunction with others at their level, worth and station in my life. And there is the understanding that I expect everyone except one person to do what is in their best interest and only their best interest at all times. 

There will be plenty that see this as cynical and negative but that doesn't change the truth of the matter. When it comes down to their decisions they are only going to be concerned about themselves. Call it human nature or whatever you want. It is a constantly proven case unless they choose to have someone that they won't do that with. 


Negotiation and Me:

We negotiate everything with our interactions with people. From how much time they will get to if they can even talk to us at all. I can be subtle or overt. 

I tend to have pretty stiff negotiations because of those things that I stand on as my principles. But there have been deviations in that program. I have made the mistake of not negotiating a D/s dynamic and relationship but hindsight is a bitch. 

I feel that if I let you know my wants, desires, needs and interest then you have the information from which we can talk. And in talking about those things and the others stuff you negotiate whether you want to be bothered, if it is just something to do or if it has a deeper meaning than that.  And there we delve into if there will be communication, a relation, relationship or dynamic. 


Ahh the joys of discussion, education and experience.


How are your expectations and negotiations?
