Women and Friendship

28 Apr

i’m on the run all weekend.  

It is all good stuff.  There’s not one single thing i’ve got planned that i don’t want to do.  And still, it feels a little daunting.

The good news is that my Sir will be with me late this afternoon and until tomorrow morning!  

The other thing that keeps me going, and has kept me going in the absence of a Sir, is the women in my life.  So when i found this article about women and friendship, i thought youall might enjoy it too.

If you can’t get to it by clicking on “this article,” here’s the link:

      Yep, working on that “gentle” thing, and hope you are too!

      {Glad you checked the contract though, i wasn’t sure…}

    (think the links don’t show up on smart phones, but it does on actual computer…)

    I value my women friends so much. There is something about it, a sacred sisterhood, where we can be ourselves, cry, laugh, understand, encourage. Every woman ought to have at least one good woman friend.

      Hi, K,

      Yeah, I do too. In my teens and early youth, i was a “o, i have more male friends than female, i don’t really like other women much,” kinda person, so i’m glad i got through that.

      Thanks K.

    I *Know* I posted a reply to this yesterday. I know i did. but…pfft…it’s gone. Ah well, it happens. And I was in a mood yesterday so perhaps I did only think about it? Well, its true that it was an out-straight weekend. And that women, (especially submissives?) really need the company of other women.

    I’m so glad I have subsisters to dump on…and that they are real life friends now too? Freaking *awesome*!!

    hugs

      Hi, ‘Nilla,

      Yeah, i’ve had comments disappear before ~ sorry it happened to you though!

      I’ve been contemplating since i saw your response ~ do submissive women need that circle of support more than other women? i don’t know…My head says ‘probably not’ but something else inside me say, ‘yeah, that’s probably true a lot of the time.’ Interesting.

      i’m sure glad i have y’all too!!

      hugs,

      aisha
