So, if you misbehave or act out (eg tantrum, backtalk, defiance), does your daddy discipline you?
No, but I'm quite an angelic or sweet little and my partner is a very gentle Daddy.
If so, is it traditional lg punishment like spankings, timeouts, early bedtime, etc.?
N/A
How you feel about being corrected?
I dislike receiving punishments. I, personally, find no enjoyment or appreciation for being punished. For me, it doesn't encourage a healthy personal growth, but, rather, I tend to dwell on the idea that I did bad or disappointed my Daddy. So, we don't do punishments and we're both happy with that.
As much as I dread the thought of going over his knee for a spanking, I feel reassured and loved at the thought too. Is that normal?
In these dynamics it seems like a quite common feeling.
How can you hate and appreciate the same act?
You can dislike that you're going to be punished for doing something you shouldn't have done (and having known better not to do it), but enjoy the fact that your partner loves you enough to help you grow in a better direction. For some people, especially in these dynamics, part of that growth process is being disciplined similar to that of a child. There is not shame in it. Enjoy being in a relationship that you are happy, satisfied, and comfortable being in.
It could potentially also correlated to your own personal childhood to some degree. Some folks within the dynamic report something like:
- "My parents loved me a lot so they punished me when I needed punishment."
- "My parents were very slack, perhaps even to the point of neglecting when I truly needed to be disciplined, and I feel like if I had been corrected more often then I would have become a better functioning adult."
- "My parents over disciplined me and I like to reenact those moments to a degree to reflect times when I actually do need to be corrected."
So, for some, it relates to childhood experiences trailing over in to adulthood. Either way, if it does or doesn't correlate, it is okay to feel the way that you do.
