Lies

My rule #1 is no lying. Which is why I have it stated in my contracts several times. I don't deal with lying. And if you do it once, what's to stop you from doing it again?

Honesty is very important in D/s relationships because you trust your whole being to your Dom to do with as agreed upon. That's a big thing. 

But let's go a bit of a different route. Say you trust your Dom and don't lie about scene things but what happens when you're not together. 

Let's say you have an exclusivity clause in your contract but the sub goes and plays with other parties behind the Dom's back. 

Everyone is different but in my book that's a breach of trust. Doesn't matter if the Dom has more than one sub if the sub decided to be doing things exclusively with their Dom that means everything else is literally cheating and betraying the Dom's trust. 

There could be many reasons why the submissive is doing it and I'm not going to list them, that's not what this post is about. But once the deed is done it's done.

There are consequences now: Should the contract be void? Should the Dom confront the submissive and find out why? Should the Dom just not resign a contract on the resign date? All of those need to be considered. Depending on the Dom and their personality. 

My take is, don't lie. There are diseases there which can affect both parties. That's not ok. And once trust is broken it is hard to put back together.
