I came to SL Gor completely naive, innocent, wanting to learn more about submission. That first year, I learned many wrong things about how to be a kajira. The concentration was on serving, with many online-isms sprinkled throughout. I had no clue how to roleplay, and only managed to learn a bit about what submission meant.
That relationship ended badly. Months and months later, I finally realized that there wasn’t much in that relationship that was real. But at the time, I jumped immediately into another collar. I fell in love with my Master over time, and I gave myself more completely than I really ever thought possible. I never questioned whether or not I should trust him. I just did.
That ended badly too, and I was so hurt. I didn’t seek another collar right away. I healed first. I spent some time thinking. Then I got involved with someone else, and the relationship evolved so quickly that there was little time to develop trust. It didn’t work out, and I will take the blame for it.
One thing I noticed in that relationship is that I did very little serving. I didn’t try very hard to be pleasing. I gave almost nothing of myself. It bothered me, but I thought that would change in time.
But now, I am finding that I don’t want to serve men. I don’t want to submit. I still want to please people, men in particular, but that slow burn is gone. Am I still submissive?
I could walk away. Pursue vanilla relationships instead. But the thing is, I remember how right it felt to serve, to surrender control.
I. Want. It. Back.
How do I get it back?
Well, it sounds as if your faith is shot. I’d say go back to the beginning, to your roots and retrace the steps that brought you to that desire to serve in the first place. When we get pushed so far off the past that we’re lost, it’s best just to go back to the beginning and start again, correct our mistakes and travel down the road wiser than we were when we did so originally.

Actually… I am slowly finding my way back to where I want to be, because I am getting to know a man as a person first before trying to be his slave. It seems to be working pretty well, because I’m starting to feel to desire to do things to please him.
