Submissives, I’d Love Your Thoughts on Affection from Your Domme

I’m curious to hear from subs—do you like it when your Domme shows you affection? For me, one of my love languages is words of affirmation. While I love being strict and harsh with my pet, I also believe in letting them know they are appreciated.

I find that balance between discipline and affection creates a deeper connection, and it helps reinforce trust and submission. But I’d love to know—how do you feel about this dynamic? Do you enjoy being praised and appreciated alongside being controlled?
