Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

My opinions do not reflect the entire D/LG community, nor do I claim to speak for every community member, or claim that my opinions are the one true definition.. They’re just my personal opinions on the matter.

Daddy/Little Girl.. Although it can be a number of other combinations, such as Mommy/Little Boy, Daddy/Little Boy, etc.. and not every Little is submissive, some can be dominant, with the Daddy/Mommy acting as the doting servant, and them as the spoiled little child. It also doesn’t have to be sexual, although some people may incorporate sexual elements into it.. The relationship itself is nurturing, and not based on sex.

Many times, a person may not mature either mentally or emotionally past a certain age.. Now, most of those people may choose to hide it and/or force it away, put it aside in a little box on the back of a shelf and refuse to acknowledge it. This community is just made of those of us whom do acknowledge it.. and even embrace it. We are childlike in ways, but it does not mean we are children. We enjoy being nurtured and taken care of, we need the sort of emotional stability and reassurance that just isn’t in most Vanilla relationships.. and yes, sometimes isn’t even available in some plainer sub/dom relationships. We do not always have Daddy issues, it doesn’t mean we’re mentally ill, our Daddies/Mommies are not *****, we are not mentally challenged and we mostly do not want to have sex with our own biological parents. We enjoy being cared for as a child, we enjoy playing and cuddling stuffed animals, we enjoy dolls (or trucks), we like to color with crayons (or markers) and we like feeling safe and secure, above all else.

It could be that some of us didn’t have much of a childhood, or a bad one, and wish to have another go at it and make it feel right.. Or it could be that our childhoods were the happiest time for us, and we wish to relive it in some way. Often, Littles are below highschool ages, though not always.. My own emotional age I range somewhere between six and eight, though mentally I pride myself in being smarter than most adults.. Emotionally, I’m a wreck, and could never be happy in or last in a vanilla relationship. I cling like a child, I am needy like a young child, and yes at times very spoiled.
; )

I am also submissive, which makes me even more demanding at times.. But also all the more rewarding and subservient. As such, I look to my Master/Daddy for comfort, care and caresses. He is my protector, my savior, my salvation, my answer and my strength. He is the breadwinner, and as such spoils me to no end.. Just as he would his own child. I take care of the house, but sometimes have to be told a schedule of what to do or else I may forget or try to weasel out of it. I try to behave most of the time, though sometimes I can be bratty.. Although my Daddy likes that about me, too.

We weren’t always in a D/LG relationship.. We started on vanilla, and long distance.. We broke up the first time around, something was missing, and he had things to sort out in his head.. When we got back together, we were still long distance, but this time slowly moved onto BDSM.. and then as we moved in together, we move into a D/S relationship dynamic.. When we were together for nearly two years, I brought up the subject of D/LG.. He surprised me by liking it, and then slowly learning to love it.. Now he is just as devoted to it as I am, it’s given us both purpose, as we both always felt something was missing in our relationship before, when it was just D/S.

We have a very close, very loving and nurturing relationship.. When we have problems, or when we debate on heavier issues, I speak as my adult self.. When all is well, and things are relaxed, I am Little me.. and I am happy, to truly be accepted and loved, for who and what I am.
