Loyalty

Loyalty means so much to me. It is an important characteristic of any relationship, whether BDSM or vanilla. Seems few understand the meaning. Fealty should be given for a relationship to flourish and grow. 

loy·al·ty /ˈloiəltē/ noun
the quality of being loyal. a strong feeling of support or allegiance.
plural noun: loyalties 
synonyms: allegiance, faithfulness, fidelity, obedience, fealty, adherence, homage, devotion, bond;

There are rare individuals that enter our lives that do possess the ability to be loyal. These are the people you keep close to your heart. The ones you protect. The relationships you nurture.

People will try to interfere with those bonds, the good ones stay true. They understand the benefits of fidelity. The loyal ones adhere to the relationship. These are the ones that deserve praise.

For my loyal subs, I do appreciate you. For your loyalty, I give you my time and affection. (Yes, you can give subs thanks and affection and still be dominant.)
