After all these years in 2nd Life, it still surprises me when someone I am trying to help turns on me and makes me the villain for their reality and situation. This happened yet again the other night at the Bondage Ranch. As always, it came out of nowhere and proved once again how confused and troubled many are in 2nd Life. 

Here is the tale and the telling…

A submissive I have been aquatinted with for awhile has been having issues with her Dom. It is the classic 2nd Life story of a Dom that, after a few months of ownership, no longer has time for his submissive or for 2nd Life. As unfortunate as that is for this submissive, the reasons given by the Dom for his situation are just not realistic and probably have NO basis in truth. In this case and his… the list is long, but the essentials are as follows:

• He was not in 2nd Life initially for a long period due to work in his 1st Life.
• He informed her he would further not be in 2nd Life for a month, also due to work in his 1st Life
• He is broke financially but somehow is starting new business ventures and working multi-million dollar contracts.
• He made promises of relocation and being closer in 1st Life, but, to date, those promises have not been realized.
• Etc… Etc… Etc…

Sound familiar?? It does to me. Same tired excuses, just a different day and a different D/s couple in 2nd Life. The really tragic aspect of this is… The submissive is real and serious. She knows who and what she is and understands her role and purpose in life.

Here is where the story involves me… We had been talking about her Dom and her situation with him. I gave her my insights and opinions backed up with both 1st Life and 2nd Life experience. She took those insights and opinions and discussed them with other friends. She also brought her concerns to her Dom, as she should.

Initially, all was well and my insights and opinions were well received. Then, she perceived me as a threat…a wolf circling. It seems she thought my insights and opinions were designed to undermine her ownership and make her question her Dom. She expressed fears to me of being alone and on her own in 2nd Life. My offer to help her, should she ask for release, made me the villain and focus of all that is wrong in her situation. Typical and classic!! It went downhill from there.

What did I do?? I did what I always do in this situation… I cut her loose and ended our friendship. I am a drama free zone in 2nd Life. Before I did, though, I told her to grow up, look at the reality of her situation, and use some common sense. 

This is 2nd Life drama at its highest!! Pure drama from a submissive that has allowed her so-called Dom to twist her ability to see her situation clearly. His story is pure crap, especially the part of being gone for a month due to work in 1st Life. As I asked her… As she should ask herself… How big a priority could she possibly be to him if he cannot make time for her over the course of 30 days?

This is a real shame…
