Defining Emotional Surrender:
The definition of Emotional Surrender is surrendering your submission through emotional vulnerability. It is not to be confused with Emotional Masochism. Although emotional vulnerability is present in both niches, the delivery method and outcomes differ.
Emotional Surrender vs. Emotional Masochism:
Emotional Masochism is rooted in the need for and delivery of pain. The recipient craves and takes pleasure in pain. The delivery reinforces the connection between self-worth issues, pain, and pleasure that the recipient has.
Emotional Surrender is based more on the need for and delivery of validation and approval. Recipients tend to be people-pleasers who crave the acceptance of an authority figure. That validation energizes and motivates the recipient.
Defining the Goals and Limitations with Emotional Surrender:
Where does a submissive start to express their submission?
- Submissives should have a tangible list of goals they hope to achieve by expressing their submission through Emotional Surrender.
- The submissive should also create a list of boundaries. What is off-limits? This list may become fluid when the submissive cultivates an emotionally intimate relationship with their Domme.
With a solid foundation of parameters of goals and boundaries, a submissive should look for a Domme who can work with the foundation that the submissive presents, build an emotionally intimate relationship with the submissive, and effectively use the power that the submissive has Emotionally Surrendered to them.
The Domme:
Emotional Surrender is one of the outlets available to a submissive in BDSM. Finding the proper connection is essential. Just like submissives, Dommes have strengths, preferences, and specialties. Thinking that any Domme can slot in to meet the needs of a submissive, especially in Emotional Surrender, is a fallacy.
What should a submissive look for in a Domme? What can a submissive offer?
- Initially, it is the attraction. Attraction should be multilayered. Physical, Intellectual, and/or Emotional attraction is essential. How are you attracted to the Domme?
- Credibility – Can you demonstrate credibility to the Domme? Do they offer credibility to you?
- Respect – Can you respect the Domme? Is there any opportunity for mutual respect?
- Trust—Are you vulnerable enough to offer your trust to the Domme? Will they be able to trust you?
- What are the Domme’s specialties? What are their interests? Do yours align with theirs?
- What can you offer in submission/service to the Domme? Does that meet their needs and expectations?
Once a submissive has made the connection necessary with the appropriate Domme, it is time to demonstrate credibility, respect, trust, and submission to the Domme. In return, the Domme can use everything at their disposal to tap into the submission and emotional vulnerability of the submissive to extract and exercise their submission through Emotional Surrender.
Expressing Submission Through Emotional Surrender:
Surrendering power to the Domme via Emotional Surrender is exciting, arousing, and frightening. However, the emotional complexity is part of the attraction.
A submissive allowing a Domme to tap into their innermost secrets, fears, and their most value-laden intangibles creates, if not forces, emotional intimacy. Emotional intimacy can feel like love, but that is too simple. A submissive can love their Domme, and the submissive may sometimes fall in love with the Domme. However, emotional intimacy can stand alone as its own vehicle. That vehicle is essential for the submissive to express their submission through Emotional Surrender.
The actual techniques utilized during the emotionally intimate sessions are unique to each relationship. What is effective with one submissive may not be with another. Relationships cannot be scripted. Like all relationships, there are no guarantees. However, an effective Domme will guide the submissive, who is open to it, to a place just beyond their comfort level. Why? Because it creates opportunities, growth and potentially the validation and approval the submissive is seeking.
The Impact of Emotional Surrender:
Emotional Surrender can sound benign and safer than expressing one’s submission through a different niche like the Findom vehicle. However, where Findom can be invasive with the submissive’s tangible assets, Emotional Surrender can be invasive with the intangibles in a submissive’s life. This is the entry point for the path to validation and approval.
When the submissive is having their needs met through validation and approval, it can feel addictive, especially if the submissive is not receiving it elsewhere in life. What makes Emotional Surrender challenging for some is the vulnerability. In a niche like Findom, assets can be replaced. With effective Emotional Surrender, you cannot claw back emotional vulnerability.
Once a submissive has self-revealed their secrets, vulnerabilities, anxieties, fears, and cravings. There is no going backward. No matter how the submissive approaches it, they never regain control of that knowledge. There is no compartmentalization with Emotional Surrender, in other vehicles where one may express their submission with compartmentalization (i.e., Feminization, expression of Sexuality). However, with Emotional Surrender once the submissive is vulnerable to their Domme, it creates a tethering that cannot be undone. The relationship may evolve or dissipate, but the emotional vulnerability and tethering remain.
