Relationships Kink & Vanilla

Why is it that when getting involved in a M/s or D/s relationship, it seems that the Master/Dominant wants to hurry along and claim the sub/slave instead of taking it slowly and building a friendship based relationship with him/her? This is purely my opinion, but it seems to me that the sub/slave is the one that slows the relationship. Now this isn’t to say that there aren’t those subs/slaves that don’t jump right into a sexual relationship with a Master/Dominant as I have done it myself. Shouldn’t it be the Master/Dominants responsibility to take things slowly? Shouldn’t they be the one(s) to build the sub/slaves trust in their ability to take care of them? Today’s society is so wrapped up in instant gratification that they don’t take the time to build the parts of a relationship that will help it last for a lifetime. If you step back and take a look, you see it all the time. A Master/Dominant wants someone at their feet to serve them and be theirs and so they look for someone who’s available and can be claimed right then. It really saddens me to see someone meet someone else and then within two weeks they have decided on the decision of collaring. Two weeks is NOT enough time to get to know that person well enough to know if they are what the other wants and vice-versa. Building a friendship that can turn into a relationship takes much longer than two weeks. It can take months or even years. Why do people have to be so impatient and make decisions so hastily when slowing down and savoring the moment can make things so worthwhile? I just don’t get it. There have been very few relationships put together quickly that I have seen last for a long period of time. In fact, there aren’t any I can think of quickly. What does that say? Relationships TAKE TIME. If you are truly looking for a relationship that will last, especially involving kink, you have to be able to trust each other, be friends with each other, know everything about each other and be willing to compromise. Yes, I said compromise. Otherwise it won’t last. That is simply the nature of the beast that is a relationship.
