Got busy. Got a little lazy. Was on vacation and dealing with stuff. Evidently didn't go fast enough, quick enough, although it seemed time was flying by.
"Power exchange is equality of expectations. Sir." -Maestro Stefanos
At the heart of it, this is where the majority of the issues with power exchange come from. If the expectations of timing, form, format, and many other things aren't in sync, things go out of whack. Even with communication, and being with someone who "gets" me better than nearly anyone I've ever been with, there are still many areas where this is still being discovered. I find something interesting, I start taking about it. Trying to get more info, judge reactions, see if it is with investing time and effort into exploring further. Others investigate on their own to find out and don't bring it up unless they are certain they want to do it. This is a breakdown in communication, a point where expectations are not in line. I don't know how much damage this has done, but more than I want, and perhaps more than can be fixed.
But it is a bit more understanding. And communication. So there is hope. And a motivation.
